I'm wondering if the 3G will work on US T-mobile when they start the service in my area. I read on T-mobile that their 3G will be on 1700 and 2100 MHz frequency. I also read that X1 support 850/1900/2100 Mhz.
I saw numerous article saying that X1 will not support US T-mobile 3G. How does it work exactly since X1 support 2100MHz and T-mobile is providing 2100 MHz?
Can someone please enlighten me?

the 3g aws was 1700 so tmo 3g is 1700 .. soo no tmo 3g for x1. im getting the x1 and am also on tmo. if you want 3g and a touchscreen then g1 is your lesser priced choice. but i would still go with x1 with wifi
A quick search would have provided your answers. T-Mobile run on AWS which is a 1700/2100 MHz pair. The X1 only supports standard 2100 MHz which is used by nearly every other network in the world.
Just wondering if anyone knows or have a European Galaxy S on T-Mobile US 3G. Is it compatible?
Not compatible.
Is the one with 900/1900/2100 hsdpa possible? T-mobile told me long as it has 900 and either 1700 or 2100 I should be fine.

Europian version can be used in USA just fine.
Will it have 3G, I know every version should have 2G coverage.
There are many threads on this.
European 3G uses HSDPA 900/1900/2100. T-Mobile uses AWA 1700 for upload and 2100 for download (or vice versa, don't remember).
So you need both 1700 and 2100 to get fully functional 3g.
You will get voice and 2G though.
This is from what I researched, I have never personally tried it.
Bands :
UMTS 2100 / 1900 / 850 MHz
GSM / EDGE 1900 / 1800 / 900 / 850 MHz
HSDPA / HSUPA:HSDPA 7.2 Mbps / HSUPA 5.76 Mbps
That above is directly from their Tech page. Is it 3G or not.?

i get 3g/h so yea....it is.. /shrug
Yes it is, and work very nice I do download at 200kbps, and by wi-fi around 15mbps.
I never seen before any mobile doing download so quickly.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
Same here its a lot faster on 3g than the last two wm phones i have this is my first android so dont know about other devices
does anyone know if the 3g/HSDPA will work in europe if i import it from the US?
i'll be in NY for the summer, will i be able to buy it unlocked from a physical store?
thanks
My bad for not stating I was interested in T-Mobile 3G.
Isn't that the 1700/2100 HSPDA band? Did not see that in the tech specs.

The 2100 frequency should work on 3G worldwide, right? I also asked a representative in chat if the Streak will be sold unlocked on their website and the answer is "we don't know yet, check back when the product is actually on the market".
I did not know what was exact, until I read this below
http://www.streaksmart.com/2010/07/dell-streak-with-tmobile-3g-bands-out-in-the-wild.html
I'm sorry if I am repeating information, but I thought I would explain in case anyone else was wondering.
UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA are 3G technologies, so yes its defintiely 3G.
The 2100 MHz support should help the dell Streak work in countries other than the US and on networks other than AT&T. BUT, keep in mind that this will not work with T-Mobile's 3g network.
T-mobile uses 1700/2100, but the 2100 here on the dell shouldn't help much, because the 2100 is used for downloading while the 1700 band is used for uploading, and I'm pretty sure you can't use 3G download without 3G upload connected too. So if a carrier outside the US has a similar setup as T-mobile USA, with the split upload and download bands, then you could find yourself without 3G on that network too.
Hey,
I like the Desire Z, I use rogers is this going to be possible?
I currently run t-mobile touch pro2, but in my city they are just upgrading to 3g unlike bigger cities liek Toronto already have it.
# GSM/GPRS/EDGE on the 850 and 1900 MHz bands (Also known as 2G GSM, or 2.5G in the case of EDGE)
# UMTS/HSPA on the 850 and 1900 MHz bands (Also known as 3G GSM)

According to this article...
Bell is going to launch the Desire Z it will have the bands you need for 100% 3G compatibility, since I'm on ATT here in the US, I might have to pick one up too.
Thanks,
that's definetely what I was after... i get confused sometimes...
cheers
hey,
im thinking about buying a t-mobile version of the G2 in the us.
but i thiunk its on the 1700 MHz. or is it also on the 2100MHz ?
because in germany i am on the eplus network and i dont know exactly on what band it is!
anyone having experience with that?
am i able to use the t-mobile g2 on the germany eplus 3G network?
thanks for your help
u should find some info about ur network's bands... if u cant , call them ... im with vodafone europ with tmous hd2 and its working fine with the 2100mhz 3g
Coming from the US, T-mobile has 1700/2100 mhz bands. I believe that means they use both
okay thanks,
i figured out that eplus has 2100 MHz and the phone im thinking about buying should have 1700 / 2100 MHz. so i guess itll work
thanks again!
Here's more footage on that:

The phone will definitely work in all GSM bands (Quadband) and the UMTS/3g Band 1700 MHz and 2100 MHz according to various internet sources.
