You mean the Sprint sim card? Let me try again. Will i need to change phone setting to CMDA only or just let it global?

Yes...you don't need the sim card unless you travel to other countries and you want to use your phone with movistar,claro or other carriers.

Is what I understand, is that I don't have to live with this retched tp2 upgraded to the wm 6.5?
Is what I understand that I can turn my touch pro2 into an bonified android?
I have heard only awesome things about the android. how is its performance on the tp2?
thanks!

The performance is great!
There are some things that don't work yet(see http://www.androidonhtc.com/wiki/Port_Status ) but I use my tp2 as droid 60% of the time because it's just amazing.

I hate windows mobile. Its so freakin slow and it freezes sometimes and its driving me insane. I constantly have to reboot or reflash my phones. Android doesnt slow down or freezes when txting or making a phone call.

For comparing performance, you can't really compare it to a phone that's dedicated to android...

It just doesn't compare really. I mean, yeah the performance is *ok*. It's not great, it's just *ok*. Things that you would expect to be really snappy take a few extra seconds, so if you're patient (like most people in this thread), it would work out well for you, but don't expect the same snappy response as a nexus one or other new android phone.

I am on Verizon, but have a T-Mobile sim in as well,

will this work, or do I have to pull the sim out?

(I get no service with Force CDMA=1, and sim card in... I am going to try cdma=0 with sim in, to see what happens)

edit--->As with old builds, sim card in.... no service!!! .

I use T-mobile evry once in a while, when I don't have verizon service (voice / txt only) It would be nice to just switch CDMA / GSM at will, as I do with winmo. Also, I really don't want to pull out the sim every time I want to play with android.

TIA,
