How do i know which version of nexus one i have?

Hey there,
I recently had a htc desire, i loved it. However, i will be living in panama for a while, and it wouldnt be so sweet to only have edge as they run 3g on the 850 band.
reading on this page there seems to be 2 versions of the nexus one. one with quad band and one with tri band..
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nexus_One
Is there a way to know what is in my phone if i am holding one i am potentially buying?
It seems the developer version on sale now is tri band sadly.. so i cannot buy a new one..

They're both quad band GSM for voice and data up to Edge. The difference is for 3G data. AT&T and T-Mobile use different 3G frequencies.

Pop in your sim card and see if it connects to 3g

Hehe, i would, if i could. i am currently in sweden, and here the T-mobile would 3g connect..
Is there for sure NO WAY to check this in the firmware somehow?
If its tmobile or att version of nexus one..

Easier to just copy and paste the info then have the OP go to another site.
Pull the battery and look for the PB # which is located just below the IMEI, S/N, and P/N #’s. You should see one of two PB numbers:
PB99110: 850 MHz, 1900 MHz, and 2100 MHz such as AT&T in the US and Rogers Wireless in Canada
PB99100: 900 MHz, AWS, 1700 and 2100 MHz such as T-Mobile US and Vodafone in Europe

vivid in australia

I just sold my HTC inspire to get a vivid..
In Australia our 3g is 850 MHz and LTE is 1800 MHz...
If I buy an att vivid, will I be able to access these frequencies? My current phone is the att inspire.
There is a leaked pic of an Australian vivid on my carrier... Can anyone tell if its the same model as att one??
I don't wanna buy the wrong model....
Here is the pic..
http://m.cnet.com.au/htc-holiday-to-be-first-telstra-4g-smartphone-339323146.htm?redir=1

You will get the 3g speed but not LTE. AT&T LTE is 700MHz and the Vivid radio only supports the 700Mhz frequency.

Really? What are the numbers shown in these specs?
http://mobiles.maxabout.com/att/htc-vivid
It says 1800 MHz?
Is.there a model which will work in my area?

IIRC one of the Canadian carriers has an 1800MHz LTE spectrum. Bell, I think. Might be wrong, though.

Cheers.. but from your link it looks like the raider is same as vivid,but can also do 700 MHz lte???
Is this correct?

Rogers uses the same bands as AT&T
and it looks like Bell is using 700/1700/2100 for LTE according to their websites

Pirate. Initially you said I should get.the holiday. Can you post a link showing the specs of this phone? If it operates lte on 1800 MHZ then ill buy it.
I've read that my carrier uses 1800 MHz frequency.. but also seen 1700 figure used....
My carrier is telstra in Australia.
This link explains our lte structure. http://m.zdnet.com.au/telstra-s-4g-lte-goes-public-339323055.htm
Can someone confirm to me that when they speak of lte for usb dongles, it also applies to mobile phones?
I ask because telstra has just released 4g lte for usb wireless but we dont have any lte phones available yet...
Which is why I wanna get one from america.....

Don't bother getting one from here; looks like Telstra uses a very unique LTE band. 1800 means 1800, not 1700, so the Bell Raider won't work. Just wait for it when it comes out. The leaked ROM notes that it's to be called the "Velocity 4G", so keep an eye out for it instead of trying to fish on the international market.
LTE for USB dongles is using the same LTE as the mobile phones. It's on its way. It was like that on Verizon too, with the dongles first, then the rollout of phones.
@Pirate: Has HTC released an unbranded Raider? I didn't even know that existed already.

Unable to logon to LTE network (T-Mobile, Europe) ??

Hi,
I got from my friend HTC Velocity 4G from Telestra network.
I installed new official ICS ROM from telestra and I'm using this phone in europe on t-mobile network.
I have question regarding connecting to LTE network. Telestra, and T-Mobile in my country have LTE network on 1800 MHz frequency, but I can't log on to LTE network in my country. I tried few other official ROM-s (Cingular, SKT, Vodafone, ...) but all other networks have LTE on different frequencies and I assume that is the reason why I can't log on to my LTE network.
I even try force logon via USSD code *#*#4636#*#*, but without success. All other 'technologies' works awsome (GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA).
I'm noob, so can anybody tell me is there any other way to logon to my LTE network.
I also have Huawei Speedstick LTE and with my SIM card I can logon to my LTE network so there is no problem with LTE subscription or my SIM card.
Is there any radio that I need to flash so I can logon to my network ?
THNX in advance for answers ?

So your service provider is Telstra, correct
Sent from my De-Sensed HTC Vivid using xda app-developers app

Could be wrong...but I think it requires both the 1800 and 2600 frequencies...I remember reading somewhere that one was for down and the other was for up or something like that...I'll try and find it and clarify
But again I could be wrong...I know little when it comes to phone frequencies and how they are actually used...
Second post has what I was referring to in more detail...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1338028 don't know the credibility of all that...but seems logical to me...then again like I said earlier I know little about service/frequencies...

Nope, my service provider is T-Mobile Croatia. Here in Croatia we have LTE network on 1800 MHz, and that is the reason why i flashed with Telestra ROM, telestra also have LTE network on 1800 MHz frequency.
I tried few other ROMs that I downloaded from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1338919 but with no success regarding LTE which is logical because cingular, SKT, vodafone....they have LTE networks on other frequencies.
I think that I could solve my problem by flashing radio, but I can't find anywhere some other radio for my Velocity/Raider/Vivid...

I don't think that even with s-off we can flash radios...
Something about an engineering hboot that we don't have... I might be wrong though....

Yes, I read about that too, but I think that is important for USA where they have 2 LTE frequencies, and here we only have 1800 MHz.

No HSPA data only Edge?

I'm not sure if I jumped the gun on my purchase before knowing 100% this phone would work in my region on my network. I have AT&T in the US. I bought an international GT-i9305 Unbranded, unlocked phone. I found out first that the SIM cards are not the same size. I bought a cutter and cut down my larger SIM from my SGS2 and put it in the SGS3.
The SGS3 came with:
Android 4.1.1,
BB I9305ZHALI2,
Kernel 3.0.31-399890,
Build numberJRo03C.I9305ZHBLJ1
I backed up the IMEI, rooted it and installed CWM (though every time I reboot there is no CWM anymore) Ive been using mobile Odin to flash I9305_CWM_Recovery.tar which gets me into CWM just fine and I can flash other modems, Roms etc. I also use Triangle Away to remove flash counter.
My main question is, Everything seems to work fine, but I get NO HSPA data connection? I only get Edge, and its very slow at best. I didnt realize this at first because I was on my wifi network. Is there a fix for this? Or is it because of the version of phone I have that it won't work on AT&T USA network?

Try this. Go to setting > more settings > access point names > press menu key > reset to default, go back into mobile network settings and make sure network mode is set to GSM/WCDMA (auto mode). Reboot and see what happens.
I have a 9300, was on AT&T until recently and had H+ all the time.

Thanks I have done that. I've also searched the SGS3 Apn settings on the net. No matter what Apn, always the same result.

I believe you are in trouble with this one:
HSPA @ AT&T
"We currently use frequencies in the 1900 MHz and 850 MHz ranges...."
while i9305 operates on 850/900/2100 Mhz.
It's because differences in 2G,3G,4G in all your carries you have so many versions of one model of device
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda premium

So I assume then, this is a hardware problem not something I can change by flashing a different modem?
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda premium

stricte hardware

So there is noone anywhere in the USA that has one of these that works?
Anyone want to buy it? Its not going to be worth me keeping it...PM me if interested. Thanks for the responses

Yes international gt-i9300 manufacture unlocked, UK.

So does the gt-I9305 not have 1900mhz? I spent close to an hour on the phone with AT&T trying to see if it would work. They could see the phone, looked up the IMEI and activated a different SIM for me as I cut mine down from my sgs2. Always Edge data and nothing more. All the descriptions I've found online show the same frequencies as my sgs2. Are there different 9305's out there?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium

I feel special that I am the only person in the USA that has bought an i9305.:good:

I am pretty sure the I9305 has these frequencies
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network LTE 850/1800/2600
This is what the specs have always shown. for the one in australia but all i9305 should be the same unless they are i9305t or i9305N
I looked up what australia uses and it does show the 1900 scroll down on this link
http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/mobile_phone_frequencies
shows this:
3G Hi-band 1900-2100Mhz
The 3G Hi-band 1900-2100Mhz is used by Optus, Telstra and VHA.
Tower Rx /Tower Tx
1920 – 1980Mhz (tower Rx), 2110 – 2170Mhz (tower Tx) using multiple paired 5Mhz and 10Mhz channels
** to be completed **
But you are the first person i know in the US who has bought it purely because you wont be able to have the LTE function.

gsmarena says sth diffrent:
HSDPA 850 / 900 / 2100
maybe for Australia is another model but it at least should have diffrent name

But I have seen more sites saying that it does support 1900 more then sites that say dont, I did a quick search on google and the 1st List of search pages when I type I9305 Frequencies I see that Only gsmarena dont display the 1900 All other sites say 1900 Maybe GSM arena is wrong.
Only the I9305T maybe is different but we also have the I9305 and hardware should be the same.
Only difference from country to country is the Modem SOftware

it's pretty reliable source, but I'd say it's 50/50 (50% says it does and 50% it doesn't)
how about samsung:
http://www.samsung.com/ae/support/model/GT-I9305TADXST-techspecs ??
and if it'd have 1900 then shouldn't it work for highaltitude ?

Well I spent alot of today with AT&T both on the phone and in store. Their system will see the SIm card and that there is a phone, but it will say Unknown Phone. They tried to switch me to a 4G/LTE data plan to see if then 3G/HSPA etc would work but it kept getting stopped because it said my IMEI number is not right or unrecognized. No matter what, their system would not take the IMEI number. I finally got a tech on the phone to put in a correct IMEI that AT&T would recognize, however it still said Unknown phone and still therefore would not let him switch the data plan. I am still at a loss because I swear the specs Ive read are pretty much the same as my SGS2 for frequencies (other than /4GLTE etc) So after one week of having a cool new phone that is stuck with Edge data, I am going to have to get rid of it and go back to the SGS2. Sux, as I really like the new phone.

you are not alone.I bought a Gt-i9305 that came from france/orange before doing my homework.i am on t-mobile and a very slow 2g speed maybe i will sell mine also and get an us sg3.

Yup, got mine for sale on ebay right now.

1.) the LTE Frequencies vary from country to country...
From HTC:
EU: 800/1800/2600 MHz
US (AT&T): 700/850/AWS/1900 MHz
US (TMO): 700/AWS MHz
US (Sprint): 1900 MHz
Asia: 1800/2600 Mhz

Now comes the great news.. as far as I know Rogers uses 2600 MHz . so EU Version from the UK WILL work!
99% confident
EDIT:
Maybe this Thread can be moved to Q/A

Rogers should have the phone next Friday....given that is when the pre-order offer ends

the one that available now, only has one band that matches rogers LTE band :2600
as far as i know and read from XperiaZ forum, (c6603 XperiaZ has almost same LTE band as ONE)
no one are able to get LTE.
if you need LTE. get it from your provider.

I could assume they have the US Model then? If they have the European one, all they need is the correct apns and maybe activate LTE over Settings.. DIAL *#*#INFO#*#* and then phone information ... and see if LTE is activated

2600 is still not very realible (although i heard that one verison of Note2 that only got 2600 got LTE)

Alright so I guess I'll hold off. What band I'd missing exactly

So not 100%sure the uk version will work on rogers LTE??
how many version of htc one is there
i checked the htc uk n canada site
all the specs are the same
so ibm kind of confused
should i get that from uk or not
cuz its about 150$$$ different
