I guess you have already sim unlocked but have you tried flashing one of the unlocked radios? Look in the cdma upgrades forum for the WU radio thread.

I don't think the Sprint TP2 has a band for US 3g :/

It does work, but just edge, no 3g. Just google "data settings for ATT" and you're good. Then you have to create a new profile for the ATT data.

When your phone is in GSM mode, go to Settings -> Connections -> Connections -> Manage existing connections. Make a new setting with a name like "GSM data" with modem set to Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G). Hit "next" and enter wap.cingular as access point name. Click next and finish and your data should work.

Using this method, I need to switch manually between "Sprint" (CDMA) and "GSM data" -- even after I set "Auto pick" under existing connections. In some ways this is good, as it makes me think before using AT&T data, but I wonder if it could be avoided. Anyway, I hope this gets your data working. Good luck.
