NVram has assignments to each frequency used and from what I saw, it assigns TX/RX antennas to each frequency. I found that one of the frequencies used by US carriers was not assigned any Antenna, neither for transmission nor for reception. I played with one of the flags and it looks like the phone started to communicate, on limited bases, with the US GSM towers. I know because the Reception bar on top displayed a different message after I did that. So I think that If I can find all the NV items that should be adjusted we might be able to to turn On communication between the Sprint TP2 and GSM frequencies used by US carriers without the need to reflash a WU radio. I just did not have time to work on this last couple of weeks. I've been too busy. I wish I had a Verizon TP2 to compare NV items on both versions to see what is different, and I would have been able to test the SIM unlocking on the Verizon TP2 too. I'm trying to get a Verizon TP2 phone, off of ebay, but couldn't get one for a reasonable price so far.

Yea, not in radio software, but needs both... a wu & unlock "security/Radio"... the new radio code "WU" is not the unlocker, just part of a 2 step process: 1. security/radio unlocker 2. WU patched radio (not the 2.37 verizon radio, but the "patched" radio WU.

& re. Yes the US radio I was refering to was WU

You said a bunch there... just want to make sure you're not thinking the wu is the same as the 2.37 verizon radio code... rather the xda link I post earlier... Some confusion in the past from others, as the 2.37 verizon radio (unpatched version) works great on a sprint phone :>)) ... in fact, has solved some XDAndroid issues recently... but has nothing todo with unlocking

Just to be clear
