3g or HSPDA in US? - Streak 5 General

Does this phone get either on T-Mobile in the US?
I just noticed it today. It is a pretty darn cool looking phone.

No, not unless you get the non american version of the phone.

Bye Bye G1

Just wanted to say bye, and thanks, to everyone in the G1 Forum.
I've now sold my G1 and got a desire (which is awesome and dare I say it 10x better than the G1).
Thanks to everyone who has given me support, SuperD, Cyanogen and anyone else's rom I've used.
I'm waiting for a US release so I can use 3G or maybe even 4G. Hope you have fun with your desire.

but isn't it a GSM phone? capable of international use and unlock purchase? If so, you shouldn't have any problem getting 3g with your service provider.

USA 3G bands are "special." With the Desire you can't get 3G with either AT&T or T-Mobile.
Just to let you guys know, apparently it's coming out in Australia on some network that uses the same 3G Bands as the USA.

Oh ok, thanks for the info, I wasn't sure
Out of curiosity, how much did you get for your G1? Sell it on ebay?

£130 on ebay, pretty decent as I didn't sell the SD Card with it.
I had intended to sell the 16gb SD Card, Phone (Boxed) and Motorola s9 wireless earphones.
The buyer wanted me to end the auction early and offered £130 for the phone only, guess I got lucky.
Same here, i got my Desire on Saturday and couldn't be happier with it!
Though i'm a sucker and gave my G1 to my dad, keep it in the family and all
Gonna sell my Hero though, i saw they still fetch around £180 on ebay...

Is there a way to compile a new modem.bin from euro and us versions

to get 3g with calls????
should add that
Euro version allows phone calls, but only allows 2G on Tmo.
US version blocks phone calls, but allows 3G/H speeds.
So we need the phone calling from the Euro version and the 3G/H from the US version!
We will know more once the At&t version releases and people start dumping the moden.bin on it. Supposedly it will launch on the 21st.
I am working on this..
US providers got wise on us this time.

Will It work on AT&T?

I was wondering if the Droid 2 Global will work on AT&T bcuz i read on ebay on an auction for the verizon version that it will work on any GSM network as long as its not in the US. Can anyone clarify this?
Well, seeing as AT&T operates in the US, the answer would be no, it will not work on AT&T.
People are working on it, but it will not currently work on AT&T.

buy yourself a desire z from bell canada

canada/usa users opinion plz :-)

ok, i am pretty happy with my x10a but will be travelling to key west florida in about a month. what id like to know is whats the latest android device in the usa with a hard keyboard? ive heard about the droid global but not much. im asking because i am from canada and we are always 6+ months behind cell technology so id like to pickup a new device as good or better than the x10. i do a massive amount of texting which is why im thinking of the hard keyboard option. i am also with rogers canada so i would need advice as to what phones would even be compatible on their network, and obiously be able to sim unlock it.
i look forward to your guys opinion, as im lost on devices outside of canada thanks guys!

The U.S. is 2 years behind. So you are lucky!
You are probably better off getting advice from people in Europe/Asia/Middle East. They get all the good stuff before us is North America.

at&t and T-Mobile are both GSM. You will get EDGE working on both of them but, they use different bands for 3G.

For 3G, at&t and Rogers use the same band, I think 800/850/1900. T-mobile uses a different band, I think 900/1700. Most European/Asian/Middle Eastern countries use 2100. South America and Australia, use a mix of both depending on the operator.

Yeah, definitely SIM unlocked so you can switch between Rogers and at&t.
so i guess im at the point in finding out if att sells anything better than the x10. since i do still enjoy my x10 it would have to be equal or better in specs imo.

you can get any phone and use htccode to sim unlock it, that would give you a better range of options to pick from

You could go into a AT&T store while you are here, and get a free "GO" phone which is a monthly prepaid thing for your stay. And get a Google Voice number before you leave.
Leave the X10 connected and set it to forward the calls to the Google Voice (I don't know if Rogers would charge you for this or you would need a US google number or not) and link the Google Voice to your temporary Go phone. Depending on how much you were willing to pay, you could get a free flip phone or pay for anything up to a blackberry.
You would need access at least once to a PC after getting the phone to reconfigure Google to transfer the calls and SMS the phone with the texted version of any voice message.
Even Walmart has these too: http://www.walmart.com/ip/AT-T-Nokia-C3-Prepaid-GoPhone-Blue/15140306
the HTC desire Z seems like a viable option!
To be honest rogers had the x10 before att got it. They aren't that far behind the north American curve, but if you want a good phone, get a bell desire z. Then unlock it. The bell one has a front facing camera and it'll work on rogers. Plus it has the hard fold out keyboard.

ok well since looking at bell canadas site the z does look tempting, but 499.99? if theres a carrier in florida that sells the same model id bet i could get it there for a little cheaper, anyone agree? or is bell canada the only carrier with the z? or should i also just wait 6 months for all the new fancy droids to hit the markets?

Do not forget warranty too? Getting if from the big 3 will get you warranty work if you need it. Otherwise you will have to ship it out and hope all goes well

Hi all,
I was just wondering were you guys able to get LTE signals from the phone you got from P4U? (or from anywhere for that matter)
thanks all =)
Check this out below. Looks like 2 bars of LTE. Bell and rogers have the 2600 frequency which is supported on the Euro version. But I'm told signal Strength in buildings is week.
http://mobilesyrup.com/2013/03/12/htc-one-in-the-house-initial-impressions-speed-test/
Any ETA on when Rogers/Telus/Bell will get the phone and if Koodo/Virgin/Fido will carry it?
Im on ATT. Where can I order one that works even if its only HSPA+ ?

If I am sure that the UK version will support Bell's LTE, I am ordering right a way.

Or just buy it at AT&T since it will probably be cheaper. yes you may have to wait a few more weeks but the Developer addition offers pretty much nothing for you. Chances are the One will be $500-550 contract free at AT&T Stores.
I asked them and they won't ship to the US. Amazon prices are $950, and everywhere else is pre-order. I tried Expansys, but once they saw I was US, they moved my order to Expansys US. I canceled at that point. Amazon UK won't get them until the 12th. How the hell can I buy this phone?
