& 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
I don't think I'm confused. Here is the story. Security unlocking is needed to be able to install the WU Radio, but I'm saying we might be able to activate GSM frequencies without a need to install WU radio, thus not requiring Security unlocking. I heard that Verizon phones work with US GSM providers without flashing a new WU radio, they only need SIM unlocking. Given that, then the Radio that comes with Verizon ROM should work with US GSM carriers. But when you install it on a Sprint TP2 it still does not work. I think that the reason it doesn't work is because of the Frequency restrictions in the NV memory, which we might be able to change using QPST, without a need to security unlock or Flash a new WU radio.
