[Q] Motorola N6 Verizon in the UK - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Looking to get confirmation that this works.
VZW provided basic information.
I'm assuming that I just need to switch network settings to LTE/GSM/UMTS and I should be good to go.
Thanks.

GSM and 3G will work. The US version does not have the hardware to work on European LTE bands.

Good to know. Don't plan on using the phone all that much. Thanks for replying.

[Q] Unlocked / T-Mobile Moto X on AT&T?

This seems like a dumb question, but I'm trying to figure out if an unlocked Moto X off of the Motomaker site will fully work on AT&T. I know Motorola sells the "T-Mobile" version as the unlocked one on their site, which is why I put both in the subject. I can't tell by the specs I'm finding if the unlocked version will work or not, and I'm not real familiar with the exact bands needed on Tmobile and AT&T (we just switched from being long time Verizon users). Any help would be appreciated as I'm supposed to pick it up today from another guy!

Thanks - so if you're paying full retail, there's really zero reason to get the AT&T version vs. the unlocked version off of the motomaker site, it would seem anyway...

Technically, the AT&T version does support one additional LTE band that the TMobile and DevEdition do not. HOWEVER, I've read that that specific band is not used in the US, and my experience has been consistent in that my tmo variant always has LTE coverage whenever my AT&T iPhone does.
I'm leaving Verizon with a T-Mobile motomaker moto x which I'll try on TMs no contract plan. If it doesn't work out, I can always give ATT a try. Seems like a no-brainer to use the TM version.

Interesting - trying to dig up some info on 850. But even still, it covers all the other major ones, and worst case scenario you're falling back onto their HSPA+ which is pretty good in and of itself. I live in the DFW area, and I'm here 99% of the time. So I'm sure it won't be an issue.

The band that the TMO moto x doesn't have is band 5 LTE I think. AT&T only uses 4 and 7 in the US. You're going to be fine getting the tmobile one no matter what GSM carrier you choose.

Actually its two LTE bands (5&7) the T-Mo and GSM Dev X lack compared to the ATT US model. But you are right, they are said to be used outside the USA only, so if you don't plan on traveling, you wont miss them.
See the discussion in this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2546466
And the since the T-Mo is sim unlocked, and can be bootloader unlocked, Right, if you are paying full retail, there is no reason to buy the ATT (which is sim locked and can't unlock bootloader).

Can you please provide a reference to where the AT&T model supports band 7?
Everything I've read shows 5 but not 7...

The hardware in the AT&T model supports LTE band 7, all XT1058s do. However last time I checked the FCC docs it wasn't approved to use it in the US. In 4.2.2 it wasn't enabled in the AT&T build, in 4.4 I believe that it is though. It is used all across Canada and in some other countries, not sure if the US will ever use it though.

While the TMO version does in fact have all the AT&T LTE bands (your AT&T SIM will work), the hardware itself does not contain all the same bands as the AT&T version. Our TMO version supports: LTE Band 02; LTE Band 04; LTE Band 17 and the AT&T version supports LTE Band 02; LTE Band 04; LTE Band 05; LTE Band 07; LTE Band 17

Cool. Interesting how that's the only place it's mentioned (contrary to all the published specs). Wonder if it was just a slip up or if everybody else got it wrong!?
Oh well, like we both said, won't matter in the US
Ironically enough, I ended up disabling my LTE as HSPDA is fast enough and I get much better battery life with it off...

Tmo us

What is required to use the z3c fully with tmo us? No one seems to know about volte or HD voice but how about just regular LTE? Which model do we get and anything special needed?

All GSM phones can use voice while data is running. Internet calling works well, phone gets LTE, not sure what HD voice is, nothing special is needed to work on T-Mobile, buy the D5803
The 5803 supports all T-Mobile us band?

Yes, except for band 12, which they aren't even using yet, and will not be rolled out till next year.
Any updates on hd voice or volte?

[Q] Regarding 4G LTE Support outside USA

Hello.
I live in a counntry with both GSM and 4G LTE networks. Reading this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-510/help/virgin-mobile-htc-desire-510-gsm-t2965839 for the efforts of unblocking GSM bands thre is something I don't understand. If I buy the Sprint version of the phone, it is posible for me to use it outside USA with a 4G LTE capable SIM without having to unblock GSM Bands? Or do I need to have CDMA support in my country to be able to use the phone?
Thanks.
You would need a CDMA network; it's not working on GSM networks!

You could try getting the Cricket or Telus version of the device as they are GSM.

I've done the googling but the answers are inconclusive. Can I get data to work and would it be LTE or just HSPA+?

You will not get LTE as they use very different hardware for the radio antenna that are programmed differently.

Thank you. What about HSPA+? Will it get every ATT HSPA+ band?

I would check the bands. To be honest I have not used a Verizon device in a decade so not sure what device they are using.

You'll get voice and HSPA/HSPA+ data, but not LTE. You'll need to manually set up AT&T APNs, most likely. The M7 is GSM unlocked by default.

I can install other ROM for AT&T or international. My HTC ONE is M7_WLV, actually it is unlocked, s-off, SUPER CID.

LTE On different carrier

Hi,
Ive got G925V unlocked from Verizon and the question is : can I unlock it to work with other LTE Carriers?
The device works great with my network but seems he cant get to sign on LTE of my carrier.
Help Please!
Put in the APN settings for your carrier.
