That post was put there because of your comments and the post you "deleted" , "flamming" in a very clildish way because someting was "reopend" that you must not like or had personal nightmares about. Do you want to really start this up again ?

Dead, not sure about that but, I guess it's in your mind that it's dead because people are talking about it and were talking about it before I got involved in it. So, it's a big maybe.

Let's stay on topic.

As there was some file in a CDMA phone that just locks a GSM phone and back and forth, does anyone know what file it is, remove it from a image ?

On another side, what if someone took both sets of drivers and dummped it on a phone, what would happen there ? (maybe brick but, might load files needed for the OS but, attempt to load the radio with GSM drivers ? Maybe ?)

Someone claimed on XDA that they might have proof that it is not connected inside the phone, waiting on details there, if true, it's all for not anyway.

Maybe

First of all boredandtattooed you WILL NOT be flaming on this site and if you do you wont be apart of this community anymore. It's not something we condone nor will we allow it. You have been here long enough to know better and we expect more out of you than the way you are acting.
On another note.
This needs to stay on topic "Touch Pro 2 FM Radio Questions/Answers" Any other discussions belong in a PM.

CW

He said that it's identical outside of the cellular radio, which makes sense. If the cellular radio were the same as well, then the GSM models could run on GSM/CDMA as well, which they can't. The only other difference between the GSM and CDMA versions is the lack of a forward facing camera and keyboards, which are different among all TP2s. I'm guessing the front facing camera was left out because it would be useless on a CDMA device for the most part as you can't make a call and transmit data simultaneously like you can on GSM, so it would be pointless to have a video conference capable phone that can't actually utilize the functionality.

Then why did AT$T choose to leave this functionality out of the Tilt 2? Their GSM network support simultaneous voice and data and this feature would have have been awesome. Might have cut into iPhone sales, though. Hmmm...maybe that's the answer.

This is all very similar to the GPS lockdown on the VZW Q9c
In that case the GPS worked, but only with VZNavigator.
Nothing else could talk to the GPS chip.
Hacks went on and on trying to find a solution until the device just became end-of-life and everybody moved on to something newer and better.
A resolution was never found, despite the very best of efforts.
People were even shipping Q9c's around the country from one forum memeber to another to test and try things.

Same like it was on the Titan/XV6800, that was solved...

No, not really.

The carriers actually advertised GPS function for that device, but didn't ship with a ROM that supported it. They did eventually release official ROM updates that fully supported GPS.

Nobody actually "solved" the problem in the sense of figuring out how to enable GPS - a pre-release radio was leaked that included GPS support a little while before the official ROM updates became available.

The CDMA carriers have never advertised any FM radio functionality in the rhodium. I think it's doubtful they'll ever release a ROM that enables FM even if it were theoretically possible.
