Re: sprint touch pro 2 ORDERED!!
 
did anyone notice sprint specs for TP2 on htc site???

doesnt say a thing about being able to do gsm at all... go look at tmo's TP2, its lists specs for its wcdma capabilities, including the battery difference... not the case with sprint...

i dont think sprint wants that working period... why else would they not even mention its capable-even if it is overseas only..

Something interesting is that the Telus and Verizon are the same Rhom500 and U.S. Cellular and Sprint are Rhom400

Telus: rhod500 is msm7601
1X EVDO REV A 800/1900MHz, HSPA 2100MHz, GSM/ GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900MHz

Sprint: rhod400 is msm7600
CDMA: Dual-band 800/1900MHz, CDMA2000 1xRTT/1xEVDO rev. A, and IS-95A/B voice or data, with up to 1.8 Mbps up-link and 3.1Mbps down-link speeds

It appears that Sprint's TP2 has all the CDMA standards covered, new and old, but didn't include ANYTHING GSM. I'm thinking that Sprint is NOT a world phone anymore...

BUT...

Then there's this from the Touch Pro 2's User Guide:
"Your device allows you to roam throughout the world using both CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) and GSM (Global
System for Mobile Communications) networks. For a complete list of countries and features available, visit
www.sprint.com/sww."

"Your device comes with a preinstalled SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card to support roaming on
compatible GSM networks. The SIM card must be activated for international wireless service prior to its initial
use (outside of the United States)."

Interesting...

I don't remember what thread it was, but a couple of days ago I remember reading you ask someone to post pictures of the back of the phone without the cover on and it showed an at&t sim card in the back so I'm pretty sure that it is a world phone.

Now does anyone know if the sprint one will fit the telus back on it?

Well the Sprint TP2 does has the GSM module. Two ways I can tell, one it reads my SIM cards information such as the phone number and text I stored on it, but refuses to find any US-based GSM networks.

Two? The famous GSM pulse buzz, because our office phone (OLD AS HECK) were pulsing when I put the SIM card in there the day I received it.

That was stevedusa photos, and he was testing AT&T SIM cards to see if he could make the phone go GSM I believe. :p

No it does not. I got 2 of them Friday, and it does not come with a case. I was under the impression that they would, but they did not. I made do right now with some old PDA cases, but I am going to have to order some from the corporate rep that I got the hook-up from to get these phones for $0.99 a piece. I think there are some already available for the TP2 if you google search.

Mine was stuck Louisville from 9/4-9/6. It finally arrived in Rockford, IL and left again, so I think it should make it to Vernon Hills, IL for 9/8 delivery. I was getting worried for awhile myself.

There's a website here: http://delivery.sprint.com/m/p/sprin...epclanding.asp

It might be easier to just call them though.

This is an email from UPS

Thank you for your e-mail. Our system indicates that billing information was processed on 09/05/09. However, this package was actually shipped on 09/06/09, and is scheduled for delivery on 09/09/09.

"Billing Information Received" indicates that UPS has received the electronic transmission of package detail from the shipper. In this instance our records indicate the package was not actually given to UPS on the date that the shipper processed the billing information for shipment. When this occurs the scheduled delivery date must be recalculated based on the date that we actually took possession of the package.

Please be aware that Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays are not included as transit days. The ship date is also not calculated as a transit day. To calculate shipment time-in-transit, please use our Calculate Time and Cost feature at the following link:

I am tracking my order with UPS yesterday, it said it is scheduled for delivery on 09/08/2009, then I am checking my tracking number today UPS changed delivery to 09/09/2009. I am very disappointed. Will the tp 2 be available in store on 09/08/2009? Does anybody know?
