rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted January 27, 2012 HTC Rezound Has Secret Global Radios After All? - Yes With "GSM" Radio!!! Source This was supposed to be only CDMA phone from Verizon, but surprise, surprise... It has a Secret "GSM" Radio as well.. STORY Unfolds Here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421341 So the HTC Rezound now has an unlockable bootloader, one of the best screens in the mobile universe, Beats audio enhancements, a stellar $199 price tag, and now global radios that work without an unlock code? Nice work, HTC. The back story is as follows. A UK user of XDA ordered the phone over the holidays hoping that it would work on T-Mobile. Sure enough, after slapping in a SIM card and changing the network settings to “WCDMA Only,” he had a connection and data. Verizon and HTC are apparently claiming that the phone does not have global capabilities, but this thread has been going strong for a few weeks now with more evidence mounting by the day that it indeed does. And What a phone it is.. Android 2.3.4 ( Ice Cream Sandwich Update Will Be Coming for this phone) 4.3 Inches 1280X720 342 ppi Touchscreen 1.5 Ghz Dual Core Qualcomm MSM8660 Processor, Adreno 220 Graphics 1024 MB RAM, 16 GB Onboard Storage, Upto 32GB Micro SD Card 8 Megapixel Dual LED 1080p HD Camera, 2 Megapixel Front Camera Beats Audio Bluetooth 3.0, Wi-Fi b,g,n,a, HDMI via Micro USB, DLNA, MHL 1620 mAh Battery 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Karthik R 246 Report post Posted January 27, 2012 Rezound is capable of displacing Motorola Photon as the best Global phone now available with its 720p display, better internals. Hope Verizon comes out with an OTA update to turn on the latent GSM radio rather than us tinkering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
