can moto x xt1055 works on GSM networks?
how to do that?
thanks before
Definitely not. US Cellular mostly uses CDMA for the Ev-DO 3G speeds (800/1900) and does not have a UMTS Chip whatsoever that Tmobile uses for its 3G. It does have a GSM Chip in there so you can get EDGE 2G speeds at least. As far as LTE: the U.S. Cellular model supports bands 4/5/12 which is 1700/2100, 850, and 700 a/b block. Tmobile uses Band 4 so you can at least get LTE coverage.
For the future: if you're uncertain about which phones supports which-frequency: you can look it up on the FCC's website. It's a bit complex at first but you know for sure the information there is accurate and not crowdsourced from places like GSMArena which 'can' get the info wrong.

Different radio setup.
The Verizon Moto X is SIM Unlocked and includes CDMA/EVDO, Quad band GSM support, and UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+ support, and LTE Band 4/13 support. Its listed on Moto's site, Verizon's site, and if you dig a little you can find it in the FCC Docs here -> https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/repo...rame=N&application_id=627824&fcc_id=IHDT56PB1
The Sprint Moto X is SIM LOCKED, and only Sprint can unlock. It includes CDMA/EVDO, and LTE Band 25 support. Per one of its FCC documents it supports WCDMA 2100/1900/850, GSM 1800/1900/850/900, LTE band 25, HSDPA 21.1Mbps (cat 14), HSUPA 5.76Mbps, along with the CDMA.
While this wiki page -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moto_X indicates the XT1055 does support 850/900/1900/2100 UMTS/HSPA, the FCC docs don't list any UMTS/HSPA/WCDMA tests, only CDMA, LTE, and Wifi. And US Cellular's web site doesn't list UMTS/HSPA as supported either. So I'm not sure. Reading THIS FCC doc for the XT1055 indicates only CDMA 800/1900, LTE Bands 4, 5 and 12 only. No mention of UMTS/HSPA/WCDMA.
it has wcdma
if you look for on the cellphone you are gona find that the cell has wcdma

What's your network?
Still no solution about xt1055 gsm calls and data?
My xt1055 can do gsm voice calls but each one ends in 20-30 seconds without reason. Unlock was made with Dr.Faramrose guide.

Don't know, if you can make use of: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f783/how-convert-moto-x-xt-1055-gsm-2154783/
It was earlier described here.
Can't try Dr.Faramroze method, display is smashed on my 1055 )
I have seen no mention of a CDMA version in the release information. Will the Moto G 2013 CDMA sold for Prepaid Verizon Wireless, etc. be replaced with this? Or will the 2013 version be the only one that has a CDMA release?
I think it should become available for a variety of CDMA carriers since the original was very popular. I wouldn't worry about it.
Whether the Verizon version will support LTE is another story.

Here's the best I can come up with:
This version (xt1250) is designed to work on Verizons network primarily and lacks band support for many areas. there is a similar model, the xt1225 that is designed for, and sold in Latin America. I don't know about Argentina cellular systems and providers, so I can only guess there. I would find out what the service provider you intend to use implements as a network and what bands are used. (for example, is it a GSM network or CDMA network and what bands do they use? Verizon uses cdma and LTE Band 13, which are missing from the xt1225, but are present on this model. Even though the linked item may say Unlocked or even GSM, it is not equal to the xt1225 for all bands and GSM providers. you really have to check with your carrier to ensure which variant will work for you. I hope this helps.
As the title says, i need to know since i wont find anything anywhere.
Next month ill be buying the Nexus 6 comming from a note 3
Whats the difference in model number? Eg XT1100, XT1103
International and US version of the phone.
Is there any hardware specific modem changes that i should be aware of before buying it?
Does it matters to me? (Living in Sweden)
Are all custom roms compatible with both model numbers?
Thanks in advance.
International model (XT1100) is made for GSM, as networks in the developed world are all GSM.
N. America model (XT1103) is backwards-compatible with CDMA2000, and also supports some LTE bands unique to the US (Sprint & Verizon, mostly).
Unless noted otherwise by the dev, all the roms here are supported on both models.

The 1103 US version has a different radio chip wich supports different LTE bands then the 1100 World (including EU) version.
Custom ROMs work on both models. No hardware changes (SD805 and 3GB RAM on both).
Only the radio hardware is different.
The XT1103 supports CDMA from the stone-age, don't know why the americans (VZW/Sprint) haven't moved on yet.
The XT1100 supports the required LTE bands to be used in Sweden. Most likely the common EU Bands (Band 3/Band 7/Band 20).
The XT1103 supports 3 and 7, but not 20 which is the main LTE band in European countries.
Based on the specifications, it has GSM bands used by both, however SM-N920R4 is US Cellular CDMA...

Just from looking at the specs for this specific device it appears that it will work on all of T-Mobile's LTE bands but it is missing LTE band 17 support for AT&T. The 2G and 3G bands will work just fine as they match the specs for the N920T/N920A from both carriers. The only thing I am not certain of at this time is if you will have to have the device unlocked to be used with another carrier. Were you using this device on US Cellular or did you just pick this device up recently and want to use it with AT&T or TMO?
Ok thanks, the deal never went through
