2.9  Using the HTC Touch Pro2 as a GSM Phone

Your wireless phone is set to Global mode by default enabling you to roam internationally on GSM networks. You can manually change the device to GSM only or CDMA only mode. See “GSM settings” and “CDMA Phone Settings” in this chapter for details.

GSM international roaming

Your HTC Touch Pro2 can operate in a number of countries on both CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) and GSM (Global Systems for Mobile) networks. Use your phone in GSM only or Global mode while in countries serviced by GSM networks. You may want to use GSM only mode when you want to prevent the device from using CDMA roaming networks and to access GSM/UMTS services. See “GSM Settings” for more information on GSM/ UMTS services. If you want to enable the device to select the network that is most accessible for your locale, select Global.
