Worth buying TA-1004 dual sim? - Nokia 8 Questions & Answers

Hi. Found Nokia 8 TA-1004 dual sim for USD 200 on Amazon USA.
Do you reccommend it?
Does wifi calling and volte work?
Is it rootable?
Is it reliable?
Any problems?
Will it get Android Q?
My present phone is LG G5.
Thank you very much.

Well i am using a TA-1004. It's good. Pixel 2 specs with good aesthetics. Just the stock camera app is a lil ****ty, but you can download GCam and issue fixed.
It's a great for 200$ i believe. After all it's a flagship.

Mate 10 non-pro USA users club and info

If I don't chicken out before the day is over, I will be ordering mine to use on AT&T network.
Please post USA network experience, rom versions, hints and tips, OTA (or other) method used to get updates, where purchased, etc.
In about two weeks I'll probably be ordering one for use on AT&T, also. Love to hear some experiences.
A very small percentage of me wants the HTC U11+, but my Huawei Mate 9 has been really good to me.

I have an Essential phone that is going back. It isn't terrible, but does occasionally lag. Mostly I don't like the size. and the signal level inconsistency. Also a Pixel XL 2 that is going back. The pIxel is such a nice phone - except for the screen. And I have come to realize I DO NOT LIKE the new extended vertical size format and that I enjoyed my Nexus 6 better than any phone I have had. The Mate 10 seems like just what I want. Although software updates may be nonexistent.
Just got my mate 10 from seller in ebay from Houston. Was in Chinese language.
Now I have to look into the rebranding stuff.
Didn't realize that would be the case. Maybe it's on me for buying from eBay. Will see if I can get used to it.

Good luck. Maybe check out the funkyhuawei site; my understanding is easy rebranding for a fee.

Let us know how well it works with AT&T. Do you mind saying where you got it and which rom version?
Got my mocha brown L29 yesterday I'm using it on T-Mobile and have not had any issues so far. I'm coming from the Huawei mate 9 pro and the mate 9 before that. I would have stayed with the mate 9 pro for a bit longer but I found a US seller on ebay who was taking offers. I had a $40 off coupon from ebay from recently selling a phone so $535 later I had purchased the Mate 10.
My only complaint is that he did remove the screen protector but ordered a tempered glass as soon as I purchased the phone it just hasn't arrived yet. Everything else was untouched seller claimed he didn't like the phone after playing with it briefly in his bedroom.

No I don't see an option for it on my model.
I've got VoLTE working on T-Mobile at least (thanks T-Mobile testers!). It should be possible to port over the AT&T blobs for VoLTE and wifi calling as well. I will post more news soon.

Sorry for the double post. Maybe I posted in wrong section before but this is great news! Will it work on the ALP-L29 C636 version with Tmobile? What will I need to do to use it? Will I need root? Load with adb? More testers needed? Thanks!

If you want to test, please contact FunkyHuawei support. You'll need an unlocked bootloader.
Also, anyone with a Verizon sim and a Mate 10 or 10 pro with unlocked bootloader, please let me know. I don't think VoLTE will work, but I want to try it to prove a theory.

Dual sim for everyone?

Hey boys, I'm from Sydney and ordered my phone through Telstra
I later find out that Samsung will sell dual sim version through normal shops and single sim with all operators ( vodafone, telstra etc )
now that's my question.
will I be able to use dual sim if I buy a sim tray which allows 2 sim and flashing a firmware from dual sim version or the dual sim version has a different hardware too?
thanks

Im going to go for the copper version, can get the 128gb now but will wait for the 512gb for another week or so.
Really debating going with an n9600 instead of a exynos version for once just to try the snap out. At least the BL isnt locked on it so i can have root and twrp

Has the same bands as hk s8+ does. No reason it shouldn't work. I was even able to get volte working on it, once I got it rooted.

You should open a thread on it for sure. I know with the S9 and S9+ they just had to flash the Puerto Rico firmware to get signal. I'm definitely trying it when the firmware is released. Maybe the shipping firmware will work out of the box this time though.

It works fine on VZW, except no volte...Once root is established, we should be able to enable it. Unfortunately, there is zero dev support for this device.

Me too, so far I have only found the single sim LYA-L09 and not the dual sim LYA-L29 version. That's the trouble with UK, they just don't want you to have a dual sim phone. One Plus does not have a single sim option, Huawei should do the same and only have the L29 version. Then it is your choice of dual sim or single and extended memory.
If anyone finds the Dual sim L29 version with free gift on pre-order, please leave a message and PM me. Quite happy to order overseas too.

I am only looking for dual sim L29, I have no interest in the L09 and at the moment, I am trying to track the L29 down in the UK with the gift option, don't really want a wireless charger with a non UK plug on TBH.

I really want a dual sim version too! As most my time is spent in Norway with two phones.
Three were one of the only provider of the P20 PRo dual sim model this year.
I wonder if they have the new Mate Pro 20 Dual Sim?
Was an iphone user now just fed up with there high prices and crap model upgrades.:laugh:
Keep me updated!
Anyone concerned at the fact that you cannot yet use the face scanning or in-display fingerprint with your banking apps or other apps that usually allow fingerprint authentication?
What ? are you sure ?
So no Google pay either? Maybe we have to wait for reviews. I use 1password and depend on fingerprint
The xxxxxxxXx!
Where the hell can I get the X!? I need that thing! 5kmah battery and oled screen! Genius move!
It's too big I hear. Isn't that when we heard about current phones?
If anyone knows a place that'll stock it let me now please! I'm sure wonda mobile will
I'm not too bothered which version turns up for me. I'll likely go down the same route as I did with the M10P and rebrand to L29 with Funky Huawei, ill most likely get that anyway for the firmware updates.. Had to pay a whopping sum of £4 for a dual SIM tray for that M10P as well [emoji3]
I did think though that the M20P SIM tray was hybrid and thus handles 2 X SIM or 1x SIM 1x nano SD.. the rest is firmware at that point. Just have to wait and see what arrives.

If does support 3rd party like WhatsApp? Using aod on pixie every day and loving it, but would be nice to have few months on a different devices whatsoever and then get back to stock experience again
are we to expect the selfie cam is the same as the p20 pro?
god i hated the selfie cam, even with beauty mode off and AI off the selfies came out too beautified and white washed.

Amazon Germany has pre-sale on Dual Sim L29 version here But no free gift.

Where to buy?

Anybody able to order yet for international delivery? Trying to get one here in USA... aliexpress & other seem not to have any yet Even though on sale......
Clove has it and carphone warehouse.
Hi,
I bought a P30 pro, 256GB with a Huawei Watch GT (a "gift") , at 3.dk in Denmark for DKK 5.160 i.e. ~ $ 775 + ~$7 a month more than I used to pay for the network. It is to be delivered next week.
I know nothing about the version no., but hope it is European 432. Dual-sim should be included.
I have been quite happy with my P20 pro, but unhappy with slow very slow updates. But after a year of updates the camera i absolutely faboulous now, which it was not to begin with.
According to our DXO friends in France the P30 pro is the absolutely best on photografing, so I am looking forward to see if they are right there
Good luck
Kurt
So Amazon UK has it for pre-order with delivery by April 6... was able to place an order here in the USA... Funny enough, Amazon France has it as well but won't... I'll see if they scrap my pre-order but in my recent experience with the Xiaomi Mi 9, if the order is in, it charges ok and then its golden... fingers cross. Should get it before April 9th!!!!

TMobile of course but yes no wifi calling since its not a phone available in the US even though I heard TMobile overseas has it as an offering. I haven't dig into that aspect to see if I can.

I purchased mine from TechnoLec U.K. and got the unlocked Global / U.K. version for use in the USA. I did not get the best deal, but I didn't want to mess with some of the other people on eBay that seemed a little sketchy. These guys are authorized and they had 100% ratings. Hopefully it works out.

Can you confirm the phone has VOLTE on TMO US?
Place a call with wifi off and see if it still says 4g LTE.
Or download Network Cell Info Lite from playstore and go to the Device + Sim and see if VoLTE capable says "Yes".

US Rog Phone ship to Canada

Hi guys, I've noticed a lot people (both US and Canada) using the Tencent version of the phone (ie 8GB, 128GB).
I don't want the Tencent versions, I want the 12GB international version, however Asus still has no info availability in Canada.
Since some US stores are now carrying the 12GB US version of the ROG phone, is there any drawback to me ordering one and shipping it to Canada? Will OTA still work?

Hi,
I bought mine (non-Tencent) from bhphotovideo. I am receiving OTA updates without issues in Canada.
It's a great phone, but yes, it is heavy and bulky.
Loving that screen and those stereo speakers, though!

Koodo; no issues getting a 4G signal.
Never noticed any red tint.
The camera is fine, but not the biggest selling point. I'm no photographer, so I'm pleased with what is offered with the two lenses.
I'm in Canada with both the Tencent model and US model from Bh video. Both work perfectly under Bell and SaskTel networks 4G+ LTE. OTA updates work flawlessly on both and performance is identical on the two. Only advantage is storage capacity on the US model and extra LTE bands
Hopefully we will receive the Android 10 update just as quickly, should it ever come to this phone...

I'm in Canada with both the Tencent model and US model from Bh video. Both work perfectly under Bell and SaskTel networks 4G+ LTE. OTA updates work flawlessly on both and performance is identical on the two. Only advantage is storage capacity on the US model and extra LTE bands

Good to know. I guess the VoLte doesn't affect Canadians so much. Current using Mate 20 X. And it's STELLER. This phone looks interesting though.
