What radio bands are on the Motorola Droid Bionic? - Motorola Droid Bionic

I know that there is a 800mhz LTE band for the Droid Bionic. What other bands are there? Same as my Thunderbolt?

Where'd you hear about an 800MHz band?

I think that all Verizon LTE bands are 800 (or 850mhz?) ones?

My understanding has been that Verizon's block is in the 700MHz range. I think 800MHz is to be used in Europe.

LTE is 700MHz band.
CDMA is 850/1900.

International Nokia Lumia 920 on ATT?

Will the unlocked L920 work on ATT LTE network?
Sent from my Lumia 900 using Board Express
It should since At&t is the main GSM carrier in the US. However, LTE bands are different in Europe so there could be some discrepancy. But it would work on At&t. I believe even the international 900 works exactly th same, just not SIM carrier locked.

Well, I asked if the bands are compatible with att lte

The international 900 does not have LTE support at all.
We'll have to wait and see on the 920 -- depends on the bands.
The lumia 920 does have late bands on board, but I am asking if those bands are compatible with att late bands.

http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_lumia_920-4967.php LTE 800/1800/2600/900/2100
does that mean that only 2100 LTE will work on the L920? or do you need both 1700/2100 to have LTE to work?
both frequencies are required. you probably wouldn't get 3G, either.
Questions should be asked in Q&A forums for devices/platforms that have them.
Thread moved.
GSM Arena has bad specs... don't go by Nokia's US site since it lists wrong specs as well (tailored to fit AT&T)

Does The HTC One Dev Edition Have Quad Band???

Hi,
As the title implies, is the htc one dev phone quad band? and if not, is any htc one quad band? of course they are locked down to use certain frequencies and what not to specific carriers.
Thing Im getting at is... if it indeed does have quad band then there is room for devs to find a way for people like me to get LTE on t-mobile and not just 3G. Unfortunately, the devs phone tend to favor ATT and leaves t-mobile hanging when it comes to 4G.
Many thanks,
Tim

I have been told that when a radio is available then we could flash it. But I haven't been able to confirm this and I too want to know about this. 1700mhz band is what Tmobile uses. This really could be the difference between me getting an S4 and this phone.
I believe that the dev edition out of the box will not support 1700 for TMO but I also believe that is a software limitation and not a hardware one as I believe it is the same hardware as the at&t version.

Dev version has same frequency as AT&T version
HSPA/WCDMA:
Europe/Asia: 850/900/1900/2100 MHz
GSM/GPRS/EDGE:
850/900/1800/1900 MHz
LTE:
US (AT&T): 700/850/AWS/1900 MHz
3G for Tmobile is not supported but I guess 4G is supported because it has AWS
1900 mhz is t-mobile 3G network it will have 3G but no 4G. Unless the devs get there hands on the 1700 soon.
My other question still applies from above. Is this phone indeed a quad band one?
Thanks

Anyone know for a fact that a radio flash would enable 1700?
I couldn't find exact specs, but the report on ifixit (can't post link) tells that there is a Qualcomm MDM9215M Communications Chip for GSM/UMTS/LTE. The other chip TriQuint TQM7M9023 is for Quad Band usage, GSM etc.
I am trying to find out, which Frequencies this chip supports.
I want to buy the US Dev Edition 64GB for use in Europe and I am still hoping that flashing a new radio rom is a work-around to get it working everywhere.
Maybe somebody has already done it?

It's actually 7-band (700/850/900/AWS/1800/1900/2100)... but not all bands are available for all technologies. Here is what you get:
HSPA/WCDMA: 850/1900/2100 MHz - This will give you 3G support on AT&T and MAY give you 3G/4G support on T-Mobile, but only in the limited areas where T-Mobile has already migrated their 1900MHz spectrum to HSPA+. In most areas, their 3G/4G service is limited to the AWS band which the HTC One Developer Edition only supports for LTE.
GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz - This will give you 2G/2.5G support on pretty much every GSM provider.
LTE: 700/850/AWS/1900 MHz - This will give you 4G LTE support on AT&T and T-Mobile.

Hi, T-mobile uses band 4 via 1700/2100. Also the 3G support. And tmobile HSPA must use 1700/2100 BOTH or it wont work which makes T-mobile 3g unavailable till 1900 is completed.
But perhaps when it says "AWS" maybe it means band 4 ? is that what your referring to? if so I stand corrected. Then again, LTE 4G is in so little places now.. lets not compute it -_-
Correct. Band 4 is AWS.
Anybody knows if i could use LTE in Spain with my Dev Edition
The One Developer Edition also includes support for 850/1900/2100 MHz HSPA and 700/850/AWS/1900 MHz 4G LTE connectivity

HTC One have T-Mobile hspa+?

Does the HTC One have hspa+ on T-Mobile? It doesn't have the 1700 band. I live in an area that doesn't have LTE but has hspa+ and hasn't refarmed the 1900 band so I would be stuck on 2g in this case?
Yes, you would be stuck with edge (2g) until the reframed network is live. Purchase the device from T-Mobile, it will have the 1700 band

Yes, that's what I was asking. So the T-Mobile version of HTC One has the 1700 band and will work with hspa+? I can't find the specs for the t-mo version anywhere. I guess we'll know for sure when it actually comes out.

of course the tmobile version will have the 1700 band. why wouldnt they? they dont want people be on 2g speeds now...
You probably looked at the dev edition (which is a att version).
Problem with TMobile phone is the 32gb ;/
I would love to get my hands on 64gb HTC One but it doesn't have the hspa+ aka 1700 band
Now I have been told you might be able to flash a radio but it has yet to be confirmed whether this is really possible or not.
Sadly I will be force to buy a S4 because of this issue. Unless someone can confirm hspa+ radio can be flashed on Dev Edition

I really hope someone creates a mod to Enable the Tmobile AWS band on the Unlocked HTC One, similiar to what they did for the ATT Galaxy Note 2. These high end phones have the hardware to work on the the various gsm frequencies, but they come disabled. Someone was able to figure it out on the galaxy note 2, but I have been searching and I don't see anyone working on a similiar solution for the HTC One. I guess time will tell. I've ordered an unlocked HTC One, and will test to see if I get 4g LTE in Chicago which is listed as a 1900 refarmed area. The consensus seems to be that if i'm in an area that does not have 4g lte i'll be reduced to 2g Edge speeds. This my friends...would suck donkey balls.

Same here. I ordered the unlocked ONE. I live in Houston which is refarmed 1900 also with lte. Had I known my dam phone would be delayed again I would have just waited for the tmobile version.

Your last statement about 4G LTE and 2G Edge speeds isn't necessarily true. I live in LA and we don't have LTE for T-mobile yet, however T-mobile has refarmed many of their towers around here to use the 1900MHz band so that you can get HSPA+ on phones that don't have 1700MHz support (like many AT&T phones and unlocked phones, like the HTC One Developer Edition). I received my HTC One Developer Edition today and drove around a bit here. While my phone doesn't have 1700MHz support, the screen still showed "H" for HSPA+ everywhere I went, and I tested speeds as high as around 9000kbps download. So being able to get 1900MHz HSPA+ is not tied directly to if an area has LTE or not.

[Q] HTC One for use in South Korea

Hi looking to purchase the HTC ONE International Version M7 and want to use it in South Korea and wondering if it will work? Either 3g or 4g LTE
Here is the bands for the International Version
Band GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 (Quadband) WCDMA (UMTS)/HSPA 850/900/1900/2100
And the bands available to be as im on SK Telecom
850mhz lte
1800mhz lte
2100 UMTS/HSPA
I'm guessing that the 1800 and 2100 mhz bands overlap I should probably have both access to 3g and 4g lte?
Thanks so much guys!
850Mhz is SKT's main frequency and 1800Mhz is their secondary frequency which is so-called 'multi-carrier.' Even if that multi-carrier frequency overlaps the HSDPA frequency in One's spec, SK Telecom's HSDPA signal only comes from 2100Mhz band, and you don't have to worry. However, I have to warn you - If you buy 801s model, you can use LTE in those 'multi-carrier' zones that are smaller than its main band area. Even if multi-carrier zone is being expanded, SKT's main band is the only band provided in majority of areas.

Help with 3G over 2100Mhz

Hey, I need help running 3G over 2100Mhz frequency on unlocked Tmobile D415, Ive tried using both these codes to enable 3G over 2100 and its not working:
3845#8415#
*#*#4636#*#*
I read some where that T mobile offers a rom for europe and asia where 2100MHz for 3G is enabled, any help please?
I am pretty sure the T-Mobile variant does not support the 2100 MHz band used in Europe. The supported frequencies are only 850 MHz, AWS (1700/2100 MHz), and 1900 MHz. The 2100 MHz used for AWS 3G is not the same frequency range used for 2100 MHz in Europe.
This phone was not designed with the international market in mind, considering it's cost.
Here is a more detailed explanation: http://www.phonescoop.com/articles/article.php?a=99&p=1493
The FCC wanted to harmonize its "new" AWS spectrum with Europe's UMTS 2100 band, since both would be used for new "3G" phone service. Unfortunately, as you can see above, the lower half of Europe's UMTS 2100 band almost completely overlaps with our PCS band, so complete harmonization wasn't an option.
However, given the circumstances, the FCC did do a pretty good job of harmonizing AWS with the rest of the world. The upper part does line up perfectly with Europe's UMTS 2100 band, and the lower part does line up with Europe's DCS band. Therefore manufacturers already building GSM+WCDMA "world phones" actually won't have to support any additional frequency bands at all.
