As possible use the Touch HD on HSPDA or 3G on frequency 850Hhz?
Regards,
EMERSON VIER
if you buy the telstra HD and you live in an area that uses the 850 for 3G then yes.
I´m from Brazil my operator CLARO work 3G on 850, I buy from USA, I check on manual HSDPA 900/2100.
As possible change the ROM or other solution?

No.
Only solution is to buy a Telstra Touch HD if you want it to work on 850.

Can I use the european HD2 in Japan?
They are the same, arent they?!
I ask, because last time I had a UMTS phone with me and I heard only UMTS will work. Data spec doesnt mention UMTS anymore.
Please forgive me my "no no knowlege" in bandwith..
If anything expect GSM will work, I am safe
Didnt look what kind of network it used last time..
Oh come on..
Somebody have to know it
Cant think of the possibility that this question is too hard for xda pros
I have used my HD2 in Tokyo with no problems. It is a quad band on the GSM freq 850/900/1800/1900, but the 3G (HSDPA) is on the 900/2100 freq. 2100 is what Japan and Korea use, and I have used it in both places.

Are all HD2 around the world 900/2100? It seems USA isn't using this band for 3G, or is it?
Do you get HSDPA in Japan?

No, USA doesn't use 900/2100.

but there's no way to get JP support or input on HD2
Among those of you with a deap knowledge of the inner working of HTC phone for 3G networks.
Is HTC doing something to phones for each carrier to lock the phone to a specific carriers 3G network and no other.
I'm asking because I was talking with a freind of mine who was given a HD2 as a part of a promotion for use on AT&T 3G network (850/2100). He uses T-Mobile and tried to get it to work with his T-Mobile SIM with no success. He also told me he had a conversation with someone from HTC that told him that he would no beable to get his HD2 to work on T-Mobile because the hardware will not work with T-Mobiles 3G network (1700/2100).
If this is the case does anyone know if it changable, is it a Firmware issue that can be changed or is it like hard wired physically?
Then the question is if we are buying these phone, some through contracts others outright, do we want to told whos service we have to use!!
Lets have some good discussion...
there are billions of threads on this.
3g is radio/hardware dependent. he'll unfortunately be stuck on EDGE.
He will have no issues using the phone with T-mobile usa. He will not get 3G because of the bands. He will just have edge. But calls, mms, text, email, and internet will all function properly.
Clarify this please
I bought my HTC HD2 in USA (unlocked) and here in Peru, where I live, I cannot get it to work with 3G. If I lived in USA, is there a way to know with what carrier I would get 3G ?

So you are on Claro in Peru?
For 3G you need a phone with 3G 1900 support. If it is the T-Mobile version, that would have 3G on 1700/2100 bands which would be no good. If you got an AT&T handset (850/1900) it would work for 3G for you.
You need to understand what 3G support your version of the phone has. For example mine (Telstra Australia) is 850/2100 - which would not be able to pick up 3G in your network - however it works excellent with Telstra (850) in Australia and currently working well with StarHub (2100) in Singapore.
Your phone is quad band - but that is GSM quadband not 3G - it is 3G dual band and that is what is important for your connection.

Hi tallmantim ....
Thanks for your response. Yeah, today I did my homework and found that my HD2 has UMTS (HSDPA) 900 - 2100 bands, a fact that is not good because Claro and Movistar in Peru operated the 850 - 1900 bands for 3G.
Question: is there a HD2 version with 850 - 1900 band ????

No, but the Telstra HD2 will pick up the 850MHz signals where they exist. There is no HD2 with the 1900MHz UMTS band at the moment

Would you mind pointing me in the direction of those BILLIONS of threads.
I've done searchs on hardware dependents, radio/hardware dependents, 3G radio.
There are so many way that is topic could be listed.
I'm finding nothing but my thread now just as before.

Erm, so AT&T gives a phone, for promotion of their service, and at the same time they should allow you to use another network? You've got too much hope there...

will UK version work with US t-mobile or ATT 3G? EDGE?
Only on Edge.
The 3G bands on the UK version are 900/2100 which will never work in the US.

Those are the 3G frequencies for T-Mobile US, so maybe Dell is producing only 1 version and that is what Clove expects they will get,and its quite possible the 900/2100 bands will work fine in Europe but that will have to be confirmed.
but UK version would work on both att and t-mobile edge?

The UK version listed previously only had 900/2100 3G bands, that will only give you EDGE on both T-Mobile and at&t.

US version should work fine since its 900/1700/2100. It has the base 900/2100 bands.
so US version can work in UK 3g? UK version cannot work with US 3g .

yes. US version has the 900/2100 bands that UK needs.

I still dont understand. is 1700 and 2100 required for t-mobile or only 1700?
if only one, then clove listed 900/1700/2100 MHz should work.

Naw with T-Mobile you definitely need 1700. Guaranteed. I spent a lot of time googling it.
But oh wow, clove edited the frequencies on their website to 900/1700/2100. That is amazing. I could buy it from them now.
If you guys are in the US what aren't you ordering from Dell? And they have the 16GB too.

Hi all, we have several friends who want to buy the Motorola Atrix in use and bring to spain know if it worked well here?

all gsm phones right now are quad band so it will work anywhere.
The question is what 3g bands are supported in Spain. On Movistar Venezuela, 1900mhz is used for 3g, which the atrix supports. Find out what your provider uses.

these are the networks operating in Spain
* HSPA / WCDMA: 900/2100 MHz
* GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
So it works well?
Change Base Band!
If you live outside USA and you are not getting 3G only 2G connections, you need to install a Base Band Switcher.
You can try it, I live also outside US and I installed:
I used China ME722 1.10 @ 850/1900/2100MHz and works perfect for D. R.
There was a guy from Jamaica who also try it and worked perfect.

Where are you from? The carrier you are using have to use the same frequency at&t uses.
My carrier uses 850 (claro dominicana)!!!
I can use also personal o claro argentina or brazil. This method should work.
I'm from Ukraine.
I was hoping that I can in this way to unlock the band 900/2100
But hardware is only supported 850/1900 right?

The operator works in 2100 range.
But 3g is not availabl for my phone.
I think the range of 2100 all the same is not supported by hardware.
Why else would my phone is not working 3G?
