Does anyone know if the white European model of the xperia play works for US T-Mobile? I don't need data coverage, just texting and calling features. Does anyone own an xperia play with US T-Mobile?
As long as the model is sim-unlock then you would be able to use that xperia play model. Sadly there is no model of the xperia play that can do 3g on T-mobiles network. I am using my xperia play on T-mobile aswell but only with 2g.

Has anyone been able to get their x10 on the 3g network? If so, what setting did you use?
Do you have a X10i or X10a? Only X10i can be on 3G T-Mobile in US (and WIND in Canada).
I do. It just automatically detected the t-mobile settings and got 3g.
I have an x10i (from UK) and works perfectly on T-Mobile (USA) 3G
It is an "A." Am I screwed with 3g?
Im afraid you are my friend. You need "i"...time to sell or switch to AT&T...if u sell you still should be able to by the X10i, as long as everything is still new etc
anyone want to buy a phone?
Hello Guys....
The xperia play is coming out with verizon but i heard there is a sim slot in the us version as well. So can we use the phone any where else in the world by popping in my sim card once it is unlocked or what ever?..

There is an AT&T compatable version that uses the 850/1900 3G bands which will work on AT&T and most Canadian carriers. That one also can be purchased right now in black or white.
Ok I have been reading and think i have my answer but want to get confirmation on my findings.
As the title says, I have an xperia play from rogers (wish se would add a place to buy phones with out going through a carrier).
So the play from verison is very different and it gettings it's bootloader unlocked will do no good to any gsm version?
If we have a carrier version of the play our bootloaders will not be unlockable?
We will not be able to run cm7 with a carrier locked xperia play?
If i'm right, i will have an xperia play for sale, i love the phone but would rather one with an unlockable bootloader.
Thanks
Hi I would really like to have a Sony Xperia Play but I'm on the Sprint network.
I found a nTelos Xperia play and was wondering if I unlocked it will i be able to use it my Sprint network? Also will I lose my 3G connection? I Had a unlocked t-mobile G2 for my ATT service and only was able to use edge for data so was wondering if it would be the same.
Thanks for the input!
From my research nTelos and Sprint are both CDMA.

Not happening. Sprint doesn't allow other ESNs on their network.
Well that saved me some money thanks... Maybe i'll just buy it to play games...
The closest Ive thus far researched is the mediapad with LTE that can make and receive phones. Issue us none of the LTE bands work on T mobile USA.
Was wondering if anyone would know of a tablet that can accomodate a SIM card and work on T Mobile usa LTE network as well? Most the ones I see are data only.
Thanks.
I would have thought the US version of the Mediapad m3 would support T-Mobile LTE?
Anyway, have a look at the Galaxy Tab S2 LTE. It should...
Edit: nevermind, you asked about Voice. S2 LTE doesn't do voice other than VoIP.
A little outdated, but the Sony z3 compact tablet does voice calls and should be T-Mobile compatible.
How about the z4 ? US version. Xperia Z4 Tablet Sgp771us/B 1303-5541

does the mediapad m3 support rogers/fido? I'm on the same boat I have the killer $15/3GB tablet plan from fido looking for a tablet to put the sim in
I bought the Z4 LTE tablet and it works. The version is hk Chinese international model that has voice enabled. I don't think the USA spec has the dialer. All works except for volte. Since it's not t mobile provisioned bull****.
To see if phone or tablet works with carrier
You need to go to this site. WillMyPhoneWork.net Anyone else find one that has spec's like this that will work with T-mobile. That's what I thought I bought. When I purchased mine Amazon had it in the spec's as haven't voice phone...
With T-Mo the best you'll get is H+. I have been using this tablet with AT&T and all I get is H+ in Chicagoland but it is acceptable although I have issues from time to time where I have to reboot to make a call. The issue is that this tablet does not physically have the LTE bands that the US uses for LTE. Sucks because otherwise this is a great tablet/phone. Of course I have the international model BTV-DL09
