Well, I'm the 'other dude' and I've got NFSFAN's 1.13 BELL loaded. I never loaded the official Bell ROM because I really don't care that much about GPS.

You should talk to the other dude coz obviously U don't have the same rom or setup. He does not have rev.a and U have.

Well, I'm not sure what I can say. I loaded NSFFAN's ROM from this thread. That's it. I didn't do anything other than that. I loaded 1.13.

For a person that posted earlier inidciated the RevA setting was present (in Edmonton) and while mine doesn't have this setting (Calgary). So best to create any future cooking with a Edmonton version of this rom. At least then you could select "disable" during the initial install and have the user change that to "enabled" if they want.

I have rev a enabled, but not getting rev a speeds in edmonton...
lol
gps almost makes up for it tho=)

I'm sure there's another way to test if it's rev a or not.

if you'd like to tether for free (that's how i'm posting this) use this thread

I couldn't find any confirmation if Bell has or has not setup RevA for any cities yet (llike ours: Calgary / Edmonton) so I went to the Telus site and reviewed their coverage mappings (about a year old now). They usually compete side by side. They don't indicate any RevA in Alberta yet but the provinces way out east (Ontario / Quebec) appear to be setup with RevA in a few cities.

Maybe seeing that you have the parameter indicates they're setting up Edmonton for RevA and just haven't flicked the switch yet. If you go to the HTC download site, you do read for Bell "* EV-DO Rev. A is network dependent and may not be available in all areas." Guess we oil provinces aren't rich enough for it yet.

I dialed ##778#, entered my code and checked data parameters.
I've flashed Bell's latest rom but it shows #777 only? Should it not say something about Rev A at this string?
