I have a US Cellular HTC Touch, and I want to switch to Sprint. First, both are CDMA networks, correct?
Second, does my handset still have the GPS Chipset, even though US Cellular's rom doesnt support it? Is this flash possible? What unlocker would I want to use to perform this upgrade... If I am understanding correctly, if I am going to upgrade to a Rev1a rom, wouldn't I want to use the 2.31 unlocker? Sorry again if this has been covered... I am a lazy noob when it comes to modding smartphones. I just would hate to brick this phone, as at this point I have not paid for it and have no intentions of doing so (US Cellular has screwed me far too many times over the last 6 years). Thanks a lot

I will be glad to answer this question for you.
Alright.. Yes your Touch DOES have GPS abilities and I dont know why US Cell doesnt allow them (neither does Verizon for some reason)
You will need to use the 2.31 unlocker and then flash a higher radio version. You can do that 2 ways by flashing the radio straight from your SD card or use the RUU or flash to the Bell ROM to get the highest radio version.
