Will a 3G SIM card work in the UK version HD2? The network is WCDMA UMTS 850/1900. I'm an absolute newbie when it comes to phone specs, so sorry if this is a stupid question.
-Bob-
If the network you're on has 850/1900 for 3G, then no, you will not get 3G on your UK/Euro HD2.
read the HTC specifications
from HTC site

I've seen a lot of isues with phones on t-mobile locked on EDGE speed...
I was wondering if my phone, a galaxy s international (french) was compatible with 3G or maybe H+.
I can't seems to find any good informations...
Wikipedia : Dual band CDMA2000/EV-DO Rev. A 800 and 1,900 MHz;
WiMAX 2.5 to 2.7 GHz;
802.16e 2.5G (GSM/GPRS/EDGE): 850, 900, 1,700, 1,800, 1,900, and 2,100 MHz;
3G (HSDPA 7.2 Mbit/s, HSUPA 5.76 Mbit/s): 900, 1,900, and 2,100 MHz;
but i think it include every version
Unfortunately your phone won't get 3G but you can get AT&T 3G. It's weird you have 1700 MHz 2G. I wonder if that could be unlocked for 3G? That's the only 3G frequency you are missing.
If you are asking about T-Mobile in the U.S. then perhaps...T-Mo/USA is re-farming some 1900 MHz for 3G operation in some select cities/locales. And your phone does support 900/1900/2100 MHz 3G, so in theory, and if in certain locations, then yes, you may be able T-Mo 3G via 1900 MHz.
From the press release:
As part of the company’s network modernization effort, T-Mobile also plans to launch 4G HSPA+ service in the 1900 MHz band in a large number of markets by the end of the year.

I've heard about Los Angeles, New York City, Miami, Boston, Washington DC and there have been individual reports from many other locales.
AT&T does also have 3G on 1900 MHz in some locales: http://www.cellularmaps.com/att_850_1900.shtml
But I am not sure if they have ceded some of these to T-Mo as part of the failed merger, and/or transitioned those to 850 MHz?
Both AT&T and T-Mo do offer pre-paid SIMs and services - and there are some MVNOs like StraightTalk reselling AT&T and T-Mo network access.
Hi guys! Thought I would put this here since I saw from the past few weeks about some people having signal issues with the HTC One.
Unfortunately HTC updated their HTC One page with the new frequency bands list.

To the australian people who preordered their phones from EU. It is indeed official now that 850mhz is not supported.
*Australian on the 850MHz carrier here*
On one hand, I'm glad HTC acknowledged this and I've have been put out of my misery. On the other, I want to do a facepalm at HTC.
I understand how 850MHz testing of the European model could have been deprioritised. And I still believe HTC should be supported for coming out with a great phone at a time of trouble (possibly as many articles on their profit report as phone reviews!), but boy are they making it hard for themselves. They are not a new company. What's different about this phone vs the other internationally available in different variants phones they've released?
I have a quiet chuckle every so often about the saga of getting this phone. Excitement, delay, delay, worry about 850MHz support, dispatch!, oh what it won't work?!?, return, wait for local launch, to be continued...
You wouldn't happen to know what type of NFC it has?
Looked at GSM arena, no where does it go in to any depth on the NFC...
Cheers,

I'm in the same position here, buggered cos i was so excited. Plus only being able to realise this in the last day or so, now i'm probably now at the end of a very long wait list on the Harvey Norman preorders.
The HTC Unlocked from the US site has the following information:
This HTC One® unlocked version comes with: 32GB of onboard memory and is SIM unlocked.
- HSPA/WCDMA: 850/1900/2100 MHz
- GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
- LTE: 700/850/AWS/1900 MHz (US)

From my understanding this works in Europe too, except for the LTE?
Frequencies:
900 / 1800 MHz GSM, GPRS, EDGE
2100 MHz UMTS, HSDPA, HSPA+, DC-HSPA+
900 / 1800 MHz LTE
As I pretty don't much care about 4G/LTE the US unlocked will work otherwise without any problems, right?
Yes you are correct!
Other thank the UK variant not having 850mhz HSDPA frequency all bands from 2g to HSPA should be compatible worldwide.

It has the NXP PN544 chip with its usual level of support it seems. Unlike the S4, it should therefore support Mifare tags without issues.
List the ability of each carriers model type of the devices.

Hey!
Is it possible to change or unlock the UMTS 900MHz frequency in Samsung Rugby Smart?
Frequencies and Data Type
GSM: Quadband:850/900/1800/1900MHz
UMTS: Triband: 850/1900/2100MHz HSPA+ 14.4 MBps
I live in Finland and needed frequency is 900MHz / 2100MHz in UMTS
GSM should work fine?
So it should be fine for calling, but internet is a bit slow maybe?
