Could someone give me some confirmed info?

I'm just curious as to what it is. I'd be really interested in an android tablet. I currently have an eris... which is pretty weak.
I've googled a lot but everything seems to be old or "rumored" so could someone help me out? I'd appreciate it.

What is it you want to know?
Sent from my HTC Desire

Specs, pricing, will it be google supported, full market place?

Oh and I'm also really curious to see if anyone has tried logmein to remote access their computers. I do it on my Eris but it's slow. I've seen it on the iPad and it's much better. How is it on the GTab?

Pricing isn't announced yet in most of the world.
For every other piece of infromation, why not just, eh, check the official website? I mean, have you even looked at Samsung's website? It lists all the specs for the device and few other details.
tl;dr: Price - dunno, not announced
"with Google" -experience - yes, if you mean GMail, Market and stuff.
Full Marketplace - Yes, it's a full phone and has all the capabilities as such, even market.
ps. Aside from the larger (and different) display, the Tab is essentially a Galaxy S.

Perfect thanks.

Does it Have an FM Radio Chip on it?

sorry but just to clarify this is a full phone but in tablet format?
so the inbuilt cell is capable of making GSM calls the same as say an iphone, NOT just able to use 3g connectivity for web as say a iPad?
wonder why the camera spec is so lame?

YES.
I'm sorry if I YET AGAIN sound angry or frustrated, it's not specifically you.
But don't you people ever think of yourselves and either read the official site or google around before asking questions? Yes, it's a full GSM/GPRS/EDGE/UMTS phone. The official site lists all the bands the phone works on. (except I hear the USA version lacks the phone capabilities? but retains data/sms? I don't know.)
http://galaxytab.samsungmobile.com/
or head to http://www.samsung.com/ and navigate from there.
EDIT: Euro/FI version:
GSM&EDGE / 3G / CDMA / TD-SCDMA - 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz
3G - 900 / 2100 MHz
GPRS - Yes
EDGE - Yes
3G - HSDPA 7,2 Mbps / HSUPA 5,76 Mbps

ICON AND LIVE PEACEFULLY.i am here to take all the tensions..Now hope i don't sound rude!...for more on this,read the forum rules..

yes.... i hae got it on saturday and i have made GSM calls also...
GSM calls and 3g video calls are extra features compared to ipad which will need a seperate micro sim and 3g contract and pay extra
when at home i use wifi for the tab and while on long journeys , put my existing contract sim and use it and will not miss calls too , the display is just awesome and so smooth........
i dont need to take seperate contract for stupid things

Ah, good. What I did mean about that was that the other specs are official, but that part I haven't read anywhere but "rumor" sites.

As of right now they make no note of voice calling on american advertising ... It will be in the hardware but not in the firmware (rom) but im sure If we got a copy of your guys roms (all other countries besides US..lol) we will have the voice feature.

I'm not really clued up on all this but wouldn't this be tied in with the hardware? And since the Tab has been announced in the states not having voice(and possibly sms) capabilities wouldn't that mean it was missing the hardware to do it?
If that isn't the case then it's awesome for the people in the states to potentially have that option

like to try it, but alas.....no dice.

Sweet! I'll definitely watch this for feedback and then probably flash it later today. HSUPA is working for you? On the other roms in this forum with HSUPA I've had varied experiences. My upload speeds in particular were really inconsistent.
EDIT: Yeah, 404...I guess I won't be dl'ing it right now. Get that fixed, please? I'll put up a mirror if I have time.

It's um.... very grey

Dropbox link 404'd.

ya its still uploading..i literally just put it in there when i posted this..it should be done uploading soon

yep 404 'd... am looking foreward to trying this though

Must've finished uploading, because it's downloading just fine for me now!

ok its done and ready for upload..sorry about that wait. dropbox takes forever for me for some reason.

tried it already but without reoriented kernel. I thought that if this has the voodoo lagfix it won't work with reoriented as that one is not patched for ext3/4 (if someone knows something else please tell me).
it was pretty fast and the theme is pretty nice.one of the nicest i've used.

your right voodoo will not work with reorient. i didnt want to use the kernal that came with it because i didnt want it to cause any problems with buttons and recovery and all that. so with the reorient kernal everything works, can still get into recovery and download with regular button combo, but voodoo does not work yet until excaliberinhand puts it in his kernal

the usual....how is the bluetooth on this?

And 850 band voice and data?
They never seen to quirk right in hsupa.

dont know since i dont use bluetooth at all. check the reorient kernal thread since that what you would be using. but i think this is the same kernal being used in dg's cog 8.1 and i think it said on his download page that this kernal does have some kind of problems with wired bluetooth controls.

yes its the jpm modem which i have found to be the best out of all of them
i just checked and it has every gsm 850 900 dcs 1800 pcs 1900 wcdma 2100 1900 900 and wcdma 850 you have to dial *#2263# then select COMBI the put a check next to wcdma 850 then menu and back..this will enable the 1 band that is not by default all the rest are already enabled.

Any screenshots. that would be nice.

GPS data not working with LTE activated?

There's been some discussion in this thread about issues with LTE and GPS.

1) Turn off LTE
2) Leave LTE off
3) Stop obsessing with LTE
Seriously tho, why does everyone have a hardon for LTE?

Its the same reason for why the other things in 4.2.2 don't work with the old radios, the device isn't supposed to have LTE, Google purposely broke things to stop you from using it.

Bro sometimes u seem like a big advocate of restrictions.
There is always a fix especially in the developing world of Android, it's just nobody has bothered because many areas don't have LTE or because whoever is using a fix, didn't make it public. Period.
Who gives a **** what the phone is "supposed to have" what it does have is a band-4 LTE chip. PERIOD.
Hardware is hardware.
"Oh hey I have a lambo with 500hp which is governor at 120kmh max speed, because you're not supposed to drive over the speed limit." - I'm sorry but in this case people would remove the governor and drive faster.

You're right, except that the problems are in closed source modules, if you want to try your hand at hex editing them and fixing the problems, go ahead, otherwise you should use the phone as it was designed or live with the problems that come with using it in a way it wasn't designed.

Unlock all bands/regions possible for Z3C *root required*

I created this thread to confirm that the above procedure works on the (qualcomm based) Z3 compact D5803. Check what bands you phone allows (because it supports everything) by dialing *#*#4636#*#* > Phone information > Menu (top-right) - Select radio band
Before I had only USA band. After unlocking I had all available bands. It's just good to know there's a good chance my phone will work on any network.
I followed instructions from the OP (here) and a Z2/Z3 specific post. Both are required.

I can't see the images...
The question is: regardless of what you read on your display, does this trick actually work?
Has someone who usually travels around the world, tested yet?
The main difference between D5803 and D5833 is about LTE bands and it's a hardware difference, which means that even if you cross-flash the basebands you can't get it work just because of the lack of the proper radio module

That's not entirely accurate. Many modern Qualcomm devices use the same or similar radio modules. The available LTE bands depends on region, country, certification, and blah blah blah. If you read the guides or search the forum you will find many people have enabled alternate LTE bands by modifying the NV part of the radio. Some bands may or may not work depending on if your network supports them and if the internal antennas can support them. For some reason Sony does pretty well with its antennas because a lot of our devices have 6-9 bands of LTE available where some manufacturers skimp out and only allow 3-4.

Quite interesting. I will take a look for sure then :cyclops:

great! I will take a look and see if my D5833 can add the additional band since the 5833 doesn't support T-mobile LTE. I tested it last week in Dallas, Texas with my Hong Kong D5833 as my previous Z1 did show LTE with the same T-mobile plan I am on.

Hi ,
I got a Z3 C D5833 and I need to unlock the LTE_BC4 band can anyone confirm if it's possible and works??

it would be awesome if someone can confirm this mod is working on this great device, we need a specific z3compact tutorial :'(

Hi guys!
I have the D5833 model and I'm trying to enable the band IV 1700 mhz for UTMS (I think is name as BC4). I followed that tutorial (the first one, not the specifical for Z27Z3) and it appears enabled on the service mode but it doesn't seems to work. Maybe it's just not hardware supported?
I would need to turn D5833 which support this: HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 --> To this: HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100 (which is the D5803 model). If anyone could just give me any hint on this it would be great. Thanks in advance!

Start a new thread or edit your first post, I guess it would be up to you. I would suggest you to explain how to unlock other bands (not only Japanese ones) if possible so it may be useful to a wider audience.
Anyhow, your effort would be greatly appreciated :fingers-crossed:

Just a quick question - not meaning to thread-jack
So, this really intrigues me as I'm wondering if this would make it so that our phones could work with Google Fi's new service?
Would it be possible, were the bands to be unlocked, for our phones to use Google's specially developed SIM?

this will work on xperia m2 d2306?

I doubt the Z3C can use Fi because it would need to support CDMA for voice calls on Sprint.
Also, I wonder if we are really unlocking the LTE bands. The Qualcomm Transceiver and Baseband may be able to support all the LTE bands but the amplifiers may not. Until we find out what amplifiers the Z3C is using, we're probably just spinning our wheels in the mud. I can't find any teardowns of the Z3C that look under the shielding, but a teardown of a Chinese Z3 shows that the amplifiers are all Skyworks ICs.

Is it possible to unlock and use LTE band 12 for the D5803 variant? I'm thinking about buying a Z3 compact to use on T-Mobile, and they're deploying a lot of band 12.

Have you updated via the VPN method?

Yes

Try to select from list 2G and see if the modem works. then try one of the options offered. So I managed to get 4G

I think the problem is with the modem they used in Android Pie: it supports only B1 (2100), B3 (1800+), B5 (850), B40 (TDD 2300) and B41 (TDD 2500).
So 4G is working but only in countries where this bands are used. In Italy for example we have band 3 in highways and cities, but in rural areas we use band 20 and it's gone
I hope that they can solve the problem with a new update.
PS: Don't try to flash 8.1 modem over Android Pie stock rom. It will cause system crashes and SIM card won't work anymore until a reflash of Pie modem.

I have to say I'm amazed that Xiaomi can release a rom with missing bands. It seems so incompetent. Considering Europe in particular uses these bands and this is the market they are trying to break into it would seem another massive own goal (after the phone for £1 UK farce)!

Can you guys try to use a launcher like Nova that allows to go to activities, search for Settings.BandMode and select Automatic, and see if it helps?

Consider as well that people who have this issue have been "forcing" the update when they were not supposed to get it... You can't blame Xiaomi for that.
If some people got the OTA "normally" and have this issue, then I can understand the complains, but so far it's only people with 0 patience and disregarding the advice of others who warned about risks for LTE while forcing the OTA (and in case it's not clear for some, LTE==4G).

This is simply wrong on a technical level. There is only one version of the update. I also factory reset and the bands are still missing. It's been established that xiaomi have omitted many of the bands. If you go on the firmware thread that joey huab updates he clearly explains that the bands are missing on the pie firmware. It has nothing to do with using a vpn to get the update early!
