OK You need the HardSPL in the CDMA Upgrades Forum to unlock and flash custom roms. Happy Flashing!

Okay. Sounds great. Now i have information and ... more questions
After Hard SPL , should I flash the ROM, or it remains ?
Do I need SIM unlock ( from Olipro ) so I can use my phone in Europe with my career, or I can just flash the ROM / radio ( I am not sure, what radio does )
Thank you man !!!

hard spl unlock is just for if you want to flash custom roms. after doing the hardspl unlock, your rom remains. it's up to you weather you want keep the stock rom or try out all the custom roms on here.

sim unlock is for if you want to use other gsm carriers sim cards. if you have a need for that, then you can do it.

Great. I will try now Hard SPL and custom rom. And what are radios for ?
Can I check somehow if the sim is unlocked ?

radios affect how your phone communicate with the towers. you can flash the different radios to see if it helps your signal quality.

the unlocked radios are for after you do the sim unlock. they will allow your phone to use gsm carriers in the USA.

to see if your sim unlocked, go to Settings tab and then All Settings then Personal then Security

WoW. I have lucky message - "Your phone is SIM Unlocked" :]]]
But why I can not connect to a US network ? ( I am using my bulgarian SIM card and I have activated roaming )
Any ideas ?

it would work if you were in in bulgaria right now. is your carrier in bulgaria suppose to allow roaming in the US? i'm not familiar with them. for US networks you have to do the simunlock, security unlock and flash an unlocked radio and use an at&t or t-mobile sim (or another US based gsm carrier sim)
