Hi all,
AnTuTu shows that my C6902 purchased in Taiwan has MSM8974 as its chipset which is LTE capable.
1. Is there any other testing app that may show me more accurate info about my chipset (Some have said that AnTuTu is unreliable)
2. I was wondering if anybody with C6902 have had any success flashing C6903 firmware to have the LTE working..
I've attached my [About phone] & [Software Info]..
Thanks in advance!

The MSM8974 comes in 3 different varieties, one has LTE support, the other two do not. I'd wager the C6902 has the HSPA+ radio.

Didn't know that MSM8974 comes in different flavours.. Always thought that the HSPA+ version had MSM8274..

I just find it was MSM8974 on my C6902 too
is there any possibility that we could upgrade to get LTE work?
when i´m right there is a flashable zip to make lte working or something....ehm btw ...when i´m right the msm8974 have a software based modem?! right?!
but there is a saying
antenna of the C6902 is different form C6903
so LTE network will never working on C6902?
only sony knows...

Unfortunately, the 4G LTE capability depends on the hardware, not the software. =/ This model was made to function on T-Mobile's network.

It will work on some carriers besides T-Mobile that use some of the same bands, but I'm not sure of which ones. You can Google "Xperia Z C6606 tech specs" to see. Or check it out on the Sony Site. It has tech specs and gsm bands listed I think.
I am using the 6603 model here in Canada, where most providers has 2600 Mhz LTE support. But I can only get 3G to work. This is what I found so far attempting with two different providers.
1) one of the providers cannot even find 4G when I do a network search, another can find it's 4G LTE access point, but cannot register to it
2) APN are set properly
3) LTE is selected as prefered already on phone
4) we have tried 4 different Xperia Z 6603 units and none of them will get 4G
Any thoughts on this, any additional info needed I can provide.
Thank you everyone :crying:

I'm interested in importing a 6603 myself. It could be that the radio software in the phone isn't set up to connect to just the 2600 LTE band. I know users of other phones have had to flash a different baseband in order to connect to their desired band frequency. But I have no clue. Just spitballin'. I hope someone figures it out soon though. It would make the decision to buy one much easier.

I know, but it doesn't mean the phone is natively ready to use that band on its own. For all I know the baseband on the Xperia Z connects to two band frequencies, one for upload and one for download. I have no idea why it's not working on Rogers LTE out of the box. Hopefully it's just a fairly simple software fix, but I can't say for sure.

I don't think Bell/Virgin uses the 2600 LTE band, so you're out of luck..

Since you flashed an LTE rom, the build prop of that rom is most likely to say C6603.
Look at the printed letters at the botton of your device, above the barcode, there should say the actual model number of your device.
There are no work arounds for c6602, even if you flash a c6603 ftf file, it wouldn't give you LTE capabilities.
If you really want LTE you need to purchase the c6603. Make sure it supports your carrier's LTE network frequencies.

Also even if it was possible, you need that your provider give you a 4G access and a 4G package, you're ****ed anyway, your phone doesn't handle the 4G, i'm sorry for you.
Keep in mind that only few people have actually the 4G access, the deployment is in progress in many countries and many towns and for many providers.

I am living In uae Also and I bought the c6602 Also and I flashed a rom and its written there now c6603. LTE is not only software optmiziation but hardware too. But even if you have 4G its speed is barely over 3G in most of the places. it works fine only in few places
I got 134 mbits and 32 Mbits maximum on iphone 5 (my speed tests)

C6903 has following bands: LTE 800 / 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1800 / 1900 / 2100 / 2600 - C6903
Does this mean we can use C6903 on AT&T 4G LTE?
Only in areas with band 4, which is very seldom for att
does anyone know where the c6906 model might be available to buy?
or if anyone has one for sale?

I know C6903 runs LTE for T-Mobile and the C6906 runs LTE for AT&T. It may depend on what LTE bands AT&T uses for your area so you'll want to check first.

I can vouch for Omegacell. I have bought several phones from them in the past. Martin is the guy I talk to over there. They do have some of these in stock right now, I believe they are the Bell C6906 version unlocked.

The site may state that, however, it is the C6906 model. The model in the US Sony store is up for debate though, according to their website, it's the C6902 model but that doesn't make too much sense. I guess Sony really doesn't want to market this phone in the US.
