Using Nexus 7 HSPA for international usage - Nexus 7 General

Hello,
My sister has a Nexus 7 and she likes it. I plan to buy one also, and preferably the HSPA version. Since I travel a lot, especially to the Southeast Asia region, I wonder if my Nexus 7 will work internationally. Does the Nexus 7 only works with GSM network only? or it only works with ATT and Tmobile network like how Google is advertising it. For example, I think in Viet Nam, they use GSM network, does it means that I can just by a SIM card with data plan, pop it into my Nexus 7 and it will work without any problem? Please let me know your opinion, especially for those who bought the Nexus 7 HSPA model for international usage.
Thank you.

Anybody from Belgium with Nexus One?

I'm moving to, not visiting, Belgium in a few months and want to obviously use my Nexus One.
I currently have the AT&T version
Compatible with 3G on AT&T (U.S.) and these wireless providers in Canada.
Supports three 3G/UMTS bands (850/1900/2100 MHz) and four GSM radio frequencies (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)

It does use a SIM card right now and do Belgium cell phone carriers use SIM's?
Is my Nexus currently compatible with Belgium frequencies/bands?
What carrier should I go with?
I have no clue and want to have a bit of a clue when I get there
Thanks!
I Live in the Netherlands (neighbour of belgium) and i can use my phone here, the t-mobile version. and i also can use my phone when i'm in belgium.
So i don't know if the At&t version will work but the t-mobile version works fine, and yes we use sim
Cool thanks.
I'm from Belgium! Nexus one works perfect.

Which version of the Nexus One do you use? What is a good service provider over there for cell?
According to this link: http://www.netcomm.com.au/solutions/3g-mobile-broadband/why-use-3g-hspa/3g-carriers
It appears that belgium is using 2100MHz for 3G so it looks like the AT&T version should work fine (and the TMobile version ofc).
edit:
All GSM carriers use SIM cards.

[Q] Nexus One APN for STC (Saudi Telekom)

hi everyone
so im in riyadh for 3 months and i brought my Nexus One with me. most everything is working fine with my prepaid STC sim card, however I am not able to access the internet. the people at STC are clueless in why its not working and they don't even know what APNs are, lol. but the problem is obviously the APNs
Does anyone have the correct APNs for Nexus One on STC (Saudi Telecom Company)? I really don't want to buy another phone here, everything here is quite expensive!!! a nexus one is 2300 rials or ~620 USD!!!! any help will be greatly appreciated
Hi welcome to Riyadh
STC's APN is: jawalnet.com.sa
proxy is : proxy.jawalnet.com.sa
Port: 8080

thank you
thanks siddiqui, the internet now works however it goes off and on and i only get GPRS speeds. is it possible to get 3G service working? is there a different apn in order to get that? thanks in advance
Should be an APN setting issue, Are you sure you have the correct version of the N1 for your network?
p.s. this should be in the Q&A forum
i hope so, i bought the nexus one the second day it was introduced from google. at that time it was only available with the 1700 & 2100mhz (tmobile) 3g frequencies, which i assume is the international standard? i know a second version was introduced to worked with the 850 & 1900mhz (at&t)...so what am i doing wrong??
No I have the same version n I'm also getting some problems in the 3g network, its not your device's fault actually the STC's 3g network coverage is bad
There is only one APN for stc.
Why don't u try the other service provider MOBILY its much better than STC
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
i'd love to switch to mobily but when i went to mobily and asked their representatives whether its possible to transfer my number to them, they said its "too difficult and that i have to get a new number." which i find very strange considering its advertised on their website!!

unfortunately, its really important i keep this number. any other suggestions?

I thought the AT&T 850 & 1900 was stardard for international. The T-Mobile version bands was their own.
@futango is it? i don't know. because tmobile is a subsidiary of deutsche telekom which is present in a number of european countries, most of which do not support at&t 3g bands, but this is just an assumption because there are many 3g band frequencies out there
N1 in Riyadh
Please tell me where i can buy a nexxus one here in Riyadh
Thanks
/cj
its right across the street from the sahara mall (take imam abdulaziz rd), in the electronics district next to the ministry of communications. you can't miss it but be prepared to pay at least 2300+ SR
Guys I'm having a strange problem in my nexus one. I have a T-Mobile n1 with un rooted froyo 2.2
I have 3g network from STC and I'm getting internet in all my application except by browse, I can't brows any sites when connected to 3g or even 2g or edge, but I can check my gmail, gtalk, Facebook and all other sw.
What could be the problem? ?

Does T-Mobile Nexus One work with Optus network?

I am considering to buy a Nexus One (t-mobile) from the xda marketplace and I'd like to know whether it will work on the Optus network in Australia. I'm kinda a newb at all the different country spectrums and all that jargon. Also, will 3G (+data) and HSDPA & HSUPA work?
Thanks and hope this can be answered!
Nexus One is carrier unlocked. It will work on the Optus GSM network in Australia.
According to the Optus wikipedia page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optus#Mobile_telephony Optus has their 3G on 2100Mhz. The Tmobile version of the Nexus One supports 3G band on 2100Mhz http://www.google.com/phone/detail/nexus-one. You should be good to go.
Hopefully another Optus subscriber with a Nexus can chime in to confirm.

Ok great. My friend also said the Nexus One on t-mobile should work with Optus. I just to make sure.
As someone who used the t-mobile nexus one on Optus for nearly a year.
Yes.

Does HSDPA and HSUPA work?
It all works, there is nothing that doesn't work in regards to the reception and bands. 100% compatible.
Oh alright, cool. Thanks very much. Can't wait to get my Nexus One then!

Did it work before?
There are two versions of Nexus One's, the AWS TMO version, and the AT&T version (which I believe is compatible with Rogers). Since both companies use different frequencies for 3G data, if you are using the wrong one, you will only be able to receive edge due to hardware limitations.
I'm assuming you are in a 3g area? Other people around you get 3g OK?
Settings - Wireless & networks - Mobile networks: Is it set to "Use only 2g networks"?
there are 2 versions of the nexus one. one version only works with tmobile 3g, and the other version works with ATT/Rogers 3G and supports 850/1900mHz. you need the second version. you probably purchased the wrong nexus one version.
the rogers version is no longer sold, only the tmobile version. so you will have to find one used on ebay or craigslist.
I have an N1 that uses AT&T/Rogers bands and I connect to Roger's 3g network fine. What part of the country are you in? I'm in the Thunder Bay, Ontario area and I haven't had connection issues yet.

Yeah, you have to make sure you bought the correct model to run on Rogers. Same network bands as AT&T in the US.
The T-Mo version can't use anything higher than EDGE.

Does the Nexus 6 get 4G LTE in the US on AT&T's network?

Hi,
I don't want to make the same mistake twice! I bought a Ascend Mate 7 (MT7-L09) and low and behold it does not work with Cricket (my carrier) which runs off of AT&T towers. I tried to make it work with the whole HSPA+ thing but it's really slow, cutting in and out, service bouncing around, problems with the play store, etc.
So if I can find a phone I like that is large and gets 4G LTE - I want to switch. Hence my question about the Nexus 6 . I see that Verizon sells it so I assumed it was a 4G LTE phone but I see a lot of talk on here about HSPA and LTE being "released" for this phone so I don't want to to get one if it's not something that's going to get lte.
Anyone know about the 4G situation with AT&T (NOT TMOBILE - no TMobile access in my area!)?
Thanks in advance! (And sorry I'm spamming this board so much lately with my phone stupidity).
The Nexus 6 XT-1103 is sold by AT&T in the US and works with all AT&T LTE frequency bands. The Nexus 6 XT-1100 (International version) works with some, but maybe not all, AT&T LTE bands.
