Hi All,
i just bought this phone unlocked and i was wondering if anybody here in the community has the same phone on T-Mobile and can confirm that LTE works. I did some research and it seems to support many LTE bands from T-Mobile but it would be great if anybody could confirm.
Thanks

I have a newbie question. I know the note has 2 versions.
Can the AT&T version work with tmobiles 4g network? I heard that they may be slightly different.
If the AT&T doesnt get 4g what does it get? Tmobiles 3G or edge?
Can someone confirm the international versions work on the 4g?
Also the specs on these two devices are slightly different...but I can't find the difference!
If these questions have been answered sorry in advance!
They've been answered to death, but what the hey.
Some thing the AT&T version could possible work on t-mobile with a modem flash, but I wouldn't buy one hoping to do that until it's out and someone tests it.
International version can only get edge on t-mobile. Odds are if the modem flash doesn't work thats what you will get with the AT&T version as well.
The big difference is the processors. The international version has the faster exynos, while the AT&T has a snapdragon but also LTE
Ive read recently that some connectivity with 3/4g can be made. Since I don't have a note I'll post and someone can confirm.
Thanks for the answer though
I pre-ordered the T-Mobile Galaxy Note 3 from Negri Electronics around October 4 and I just received an email from them saying that they still don't have the T-Mobile Galaxy Note unlocked version yet. I want to get the T-Mobile Note 3 because the bootloader is not locked like the AT&T version. Anyway, Negri offered me the Samsung N900W8 Galaxy Note 3 instead of the unlocked T-Mobile version.
Would the Samsung N900W8 Galaxy Note 3 work with AT&T ?

It has this band:
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network LTE 1700 / 2100 / 2600
I need LTE to work with AT&T since I currently have AT&T as a provider.
Should I accept Negri offer and get the N900W8 instead of the unlocked T-Mobile version ? ...or should I just wait for the T-Mobile version?
Also, this N900W8 version looks to be more expensive than the T-Mobile version that I orderd but they say that they would honor my T-Mobile price that I pre-ordered on October 4.

It seems to cover the bands so I say yes it will.

SM-N900W8 on ATT?
I really want to know if I buy a SM-N900W8 Note 3 from Ebay, can it somehow work with US AT&T network and hopefully get LTE too? Many thanks.

hello, i would love to get this and just want know if it will work with t mobile in the states, they did not stock the s4 mini because it did not work fully in there band.
is it to early to tell?
also in the specs it just says 4g lte , no mention of which bands for lte
thanks for any help
Hi everyone,
My P9 (L09C432 ver.) cannot connect to 4g even though it has the supported bands to do so. Specifically, I am trying to connect to Freedom Mobile in Canada who uses band 4 & 7. Much help would be appreciated. Thanks!
I have P10 Plus, and im in the same boat. My friend's Oneplus One has LTE. I think this has something to do with Huawei, not the carrier.
there is also a reddit thread
and a screenshot
Hello All,
I bought galaxy note 9 SM-960U1 (unlocked) from samsung.com . I am on Tmobile and have ahard time with LTE covrage. I was wondering what all LTE bands this model supports. I couldn't find clear information on it. It will be great if i can get information on LTE bands of this model and Tmobile as well.
Thanks

Go to Samsung dot com and under the U1 model click specifications. All radios and bands will be shown on manufactures website.

It has all the bands required, including Band 71. However on the U1 Firmware I have had a hard getting to hold the signal. It will roam then drop a weak signal and you'll get a notification that you're no longer connected to the mobile network.
Flashing the U carrier firmware cures the problem, for me at least. The problem was worse for me on the unlocked Pie firmware than on Oreo.
Try this procedure

"Ok. Perhaps your Note 9 is preferring band 12 LTE which is slower and usually more congested if too many people are also connected to it. Your Note 5 may be preferring band 2 or 4 LTE hence an increase in speed. On your Note 9, go to the dialer and type *#0011# 6th line down from the top there should be a number next to "band" what is it? We can also try disabling band 12 by dialing *#2263#, to to LTE band preference > Next page > tap on LTE b12 to deselect it. tap the 3 dot menu button (upper right) tap "back" (repeat) until youi're at the main screen, "apply band configuration". Retest data speeds.
If this doesn't help, then you're likely experiencing congestion in your area. Re-enable band 12 by selecting "apply all bands" and apply."
I had similar issues and tried this and got faster internet speeds. I had to disable band 2. Got this procedure from the internet.
