[Q] Lumia 930 baseband - Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all..
In my country there are plans to launch the Lumia 930, but here the lte frequencies are 1700 and 2100..
The 930 doesn't support the 1700 frequency..
Is there any way to unlock that frequency or change the baseband to enable it?

It looks like Lumia 930 support 2100:
LTE FDD: Band 1 (2100 MHz), Band 20 (800 MHz), Band 3 (1800 MHz), Band 7 (2600 MHz), Band 8 (900 MHz)
WCDMA: Band 1 (2100 MHz), Band 2 (1900 MHz), Band 5 (850 MHz), Band 8 (900 MHz)
There is no 1700 module in 930 so you cant activate it so you can use only 2100MHz.

I need Band 20 for Europe Digital Dividend - and UMTS 900! The Sprint version has UMTS 900, but no Band 20
I'm afraid the S5 is not a true world phone....

[Q] Which model best for Australia LTE networks

Hi,
I was wondering which of the two Z3 Compact models would be provide the most coverage with the current LTE and future ones in Australia?
With the Z1 Compact there was 2 models released one for china only without LTE (M51w) and the other for rest of the world D5503.
With the Z3 Compact there is the D5803 which provides the same support as the D5503 but I also see the D5833 listed. This looks to provide more coverage in Australia with band 28 (Telstra and Optus) and 40 (TD LTE 40 - Optus)? For the best coverage should I try and get the D5833? I have only seen the D5803 listed for pre-order. I guess the D5803 would also provide support in the US (and international travel) where-as D5833 wouldn't but would support China.
I know that the Z4 or Z5 compact will replace this in 6 or 12 months but since I tend to replace my phone every 2 to 3 years so I'm trying to future proof myself as much as possible. Thanks.

I believe the only different is the LTE bands they support:
D5803:
UMTS HSPA+ 850 (Band V), 900 (Band VIII), 1700 (Band IV), 1900 (Band II), 2100 (Band I) MHz
GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz
LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 13, 17, 20)
D5833:
UMTS HSPA+ 850 (Band V), 900 (Band VIII), 1900 (Band II), 2100 (Band I) MHz
GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz
LTE (Bands 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 28)
TD LTE Band 40
Etisalat uses bands 3 and 7, Du uses band 3. So yep, they're both fine.
If you travel, you can check what bands other countries use, one might be better for you. But even if you end up somewhere unsupported, you can still use 3G which is probably good enough in most cases. Etisalat and Du both use UMTS Band 2100.

Nokia 8 LTE band choice

Hi there
I use my Nokia 8 on Telstra in Australia, and Telstra operates on LTE bands 3 (1800 MHz), 7 (2600 MHz) and 28 (700 MHz).
However, I notice it would often move onto band 7, despite it being the weakest band in the area, as shown in the attachment.
Any ideas why this happens? Is there any way to fix it?

Band Inquiry - C Band

So the G025I varient supports bands 77 and 78.The US varient, G025E,supports band 77 only. The thing is band 77 is actually a subset of band 78.So it makes
me wonder.
I wonder if we can flash UK.EU, AU firmware on a US model and if that would open those bands--if the hardware was physically identical between the I and E varients.
