Hello everybody!
I have a Sprint HTC One but I dont need CDMA because I use this phone in GSM mode with other carrier on 850 Mhz band. I only get EDGE conection and I cant access to HSPA conection. I checked specifications for Sprint HTC One and they say that it doesnt support 850 Mhz band on 3G. But if the hardware is the same for all HTC One Models I think is possible activate HSPA 850Mhz radio frequency on Sprint HTC One just like AT&T HTC One, Can someone help me ?
If the band is not supported, it's not supported. Not all models are the same.

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

Is it possible to flash TMobile Baseband on to HTC One (brand-less GSM)
In asia, Taiwan, sells the Original HTC One.
Was hoping, I can flash TMO Baseband onto Original HTC One, purchased in Taiwan. Use in USA for 3G and LTE.
Is there a way to make this happen? or are there a Flashable Zip already available, I did not find?
If its a regular HTC one yes you can flash different baseband/radio. You will not however unlock any frequencies.
If you use T-Mobile on an international, developer, or any HTC one not sold by T-Mobile here in the states you will only pick up 3G in areas that have been reformed.

The Asia models are very different than other models and have a different frequency set for which they are designed. I don't think it will ever pick up AWS (which I think is what you want), even if some other models will.

Meaning, in the past like HTC Desire HD, which I had. There are cooked roms, and flash baseband. Unlock frequency to work pretty much any where.
HTC Original from Asia, which no longer possible.
Can you guys tell me, what t-mobile baseband frequency runs on?
Will the below work on TMOBILE?
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100
HSDPA 900 / 2100
4G Network LTE 800 / 1800 / 2600
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure where you got those numbers, but everything except the LTE should work. T-Mobile LTE is 1700. However, having 1700 and 2100 is not the same as having 1700/2100 AWS.
Not sure if this is still relevant but my HTC Dev edition clearly uses tmo 4g downloading over 25 Mbps and upping about the same

Hi guys need a little bit enlightment,i had the one branded by verizone,and it has different lte frequency in my country,so it will pick only 3g signal.
If i flashing WWE radio will it gives me lte/4g sognal?in my country only had 850/900/1800/2300 frequency meanwhile my one only had 700mhz.
I am currently using an old Galaxy S 2 (tmobile) and i think my next phone is going to be Butterfly S. Does the phone support 4G that tmobile has? or does it only go up to 3G?
(the title should probably be "anyone using tmobile with this phone")

According to T-Mobile forum frequencies:
LTE 1700/2100 MHz
Butterfly S:
LTE 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600
LTE may work if it's 2100 MHz band. In my opinion, you'd better ask someone to test LTE in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2398755
T-Mobile uses both 1700 and 2100 simultaneously for LTE, so it won't work with the Butterfly S.
You'll only get 3G where T-Mobile has it refarmed to 1900mhz.

Hi All
I have question if any know, is it possible for Sprint HTC One m7wsl to work on International LTE/UMTS bands just like international HTC.
Actual i purchased new HTC One for LTE use only. My operator "du Telecom" supports 1800 band for LTE but i found my HTC One is Sprint HTC on which do not support this frequency.
So now is it possible to change the LTE frequency band to support 1800

Hello,
I was wondering if it was possible to convert Sprint HTC One to International or AT&T variant? All HTC One models are the same in terms of specifications i think so what prevents it from happening? They all are world phones and S-off is available to all the variants.
I'm just curious as I have a Sprint HTC One which I'm using on GSM network with a custom rom.
Thanks
If im not mistaken. The Sprint / Verizon HTC One are CDMA units and NOT GSM.
The LTE would work but you would have no voice communications.
Im not 100% sure how the hardware works in them when it comes to CDMA / GSM.
So im not sure you can flash a GSM radio and make it work like that..
Try it and let us know if it works.
I know for sure that when you flash GSM Rom on Sprint variant, it doesn't work at all so this has to go a bit deeper. Both Sprint and AT&T variant have GSM/CDMA/LTE on it i think.

Nope, there are several models of the One that HTC manufactures so they can optimize the antenna design for various regions/carriers.
The Sprint model can connect to the following frequencies (link):
2G/2.5G - GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
3G - UMTS/ HSPA: 1900/2100 MHz with HSPA+ up to 14.4 Mbps
3G - CDMA: 800/1900 MHz for Sprint
4G - LTE: Sprint: 1900 MHz

Since this is part of the physical design of the radio/antenna, it cannot be changed.

Unfortunately, the Sprint HTC One only connects to LTE on band 25. And according to the following list, Sprint is the only carrier using band 25, meaning the Sprint version of the One will only run on Sprint’s LTE network.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks
EDIT:
There are ways to get the Sprint version of the One to run on AT&T and T-Mobile’s non-LTE GSM networks, but you need to follow the guides in the Sprint HTC One forum on how to SIM-unlock your device. Also, you have to make sure that AT&T or T-Mobile have one of the GSM frequencies listed above IN YOUR MARKET before trying to make the switch. In any case, you would be limited to 14.4 Mbps at best (assuming the market you're in has 1900/2100 MHz HSPA+).
Thanks!
This is the kind of explanation that I was looking for.
My phone is sim-unlocked already and works fine on 2G/3G networks in India. There is no 4G here so I can't be bothered.
