Hi Guys,
I like Epic 4G but in Italy, where I live, this smartphone isn't sold. So, I've found some nice offers on ebay to buy it, but I've a question hoping you can answer to it.
In Italy there are no 4G networks, so will it work if'll use it with H3G usim under 3G networks?
Thanks a lot for your attention.
Regards
yall have cdma in italy?

If Italy has 1900/800 Mhz Bands and you (or perhaps the carrier) can find a way to provision the CDMA to look for italy SIDs it then Yes! it will work. Provisioning data may be tricky though. You would just leave the Wi-Max radio on the off position.
There is no CDMA in Italy, it won't work whatsoever.

Hi all,
I want know if it's possible to use HTC vogue in france?
Thx in advance
Assuming your network enables International Roaming then yes.
No, the Vogue is CDMA and France is all GSM. You're pretty much out of luck travelling internationally with a CDMA as 90% of the world uses GSM. There are a few places (Mex, Canada, New Zealand, etc) that have CDMA networks though.

90%? lol, i would say more like 60/40. mostly Australia, Europe, Asia, Africa .. japan is WCDMA. everywhere else it's in between.
But the frequency are 900/1900 for Vogue
CDMA it's not a high bandwith network???
WCDMA is not really the same as old CDMA
Hi,
I'm currently living in Europe (France) but I will be moving to California (San Francisco) in early December. I own a blackstone, which I bought here in France.
How should I expect it to work in San Francisco? From what I understood, I might not enjoy 3G+ ... Is that true?
Any informations welcome
it will not have 3G service. Only the Tesla model will work with 3G in the states. My touch HD works works vary well in San Fran but it is the ausy model
As stated there is no 3G service.
However, plenty of free WiFi areas.
Ok, thank you very much! I guess there IS a 3G service, but my phone isn't compatible, right? In that case I'll just sell my phone before moving ... Or is it possible that there is still no 3G service in SF??

3G service in available in all major US cities; your phone needs to have the right US 3G bands. for at&t the 850/1900 band is used for 3G, for T-Mobile (i believe) it's 1700/2100.
what he said, so make sure the phone you buy next is North america 3G compatible (850-1900htz 3G). My Blackstone only has 850 htz 3G but I have never had a area where my ATT fuze was 3G and my Touch HD(ausy model) wasn't.
Okay, all clear now. Thanks a lot for all your help.
Cheers
as the title states could i buy the handset when its out and just use it with my simcard?
No, CDMA networks only. Pretty sure that a GSM version will be released without the 4g capabilities...someday

This is CDMA phone, and CDMA does not support SIM cards, so I would have to say no.
ahh too bad, well alright
If it's because the Netherlands or most of Europe don't have 4G networks yet, because they only want the Evo to run on 4G networks not 3G networks, then answer me the following question:
Well how come they have released the Max 4G in the past in Eurpope and won't release a GSM version of the 4G Evo?
Simple question, but hard to answer: will this US phone work in Asia with UTMS 2100, at 3G (HSPDA) speed?
I know an International HD2 going over on TMobile or AT&T roaming will only get EDGE.
I want to know a similar thing: Will the T-Mobile US HD2 work on Western European 2100MHz 3G band?
(I won't be using it in the US, so the fact that the international version doesn't work on US 3G is of no interest to me.)
A simple answer: it will because it supports band 1 and 4 3G.
Simple Answer: Yes
Thanks everyone who replied. I'm making a trip to LA in about 3 weeks time to grab one at a T-Mob shop. Hopefully the stocks will not be an issue by then...
Hi all,
I'm planning on going to Europe, specifically Amsterdam and Sweden, next year. Will my HD2 work in Europe? With data? (I realize I will have to buy a plan with an operator over there)
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Yes it will work with any GSM provider worldwide, so long as you SIM unlock it. Todo so, either call T-Mobile if you are a customer, or go online and find a site that SIM does SIM unlocks, such as http://www.htcunlock.com and pay them to do it(around 15USD). And as far as data is concerned, you will get EDGE and GPRS only in Europe with the TMO US HD2 as the 3G bands are different.
Ah good My phone is already unlocked so I'm straight on that front. Going without 3G is no problem, I'm glad it'll work with EDGE.
thanks for the reply!
Correction: the TMOUS HD2 will work on 3G in Europe.
HTC clearly says 1700/2100. 2100 is Band I for Europe. 1700 is Band IV for T-Mobile.
