    If you bought a Verizon model, you have CDMA. If AT&T, GSM. Ask the store what you bought from them.

    Hi Tom,

                I have the new iPad 64gb wifi+cellular, model A1430 MD368ZP which mean GSM, but when i download the firmware iPad 3.2_6.0_10A403_Restore.Ipsw which is for GSM model will not work (iTunes will say not compatible with this model) also it didn't work with Ipad3.2_ 5.1.1_9B206Restore.Ipsw before.

    So i let iTunes download the firmware and i found out it's the CDMA version which is iPad3.3_6.0_10A403_Restore.Ispw.

    So whats going on here? Any idea?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

     

    cheers
