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?

I heard that 3g does not work in the USA with the hero. But when i look at the specs for the phone(below) its like the exact same as the g1 (besides added 900 for hspa). So does 3g work in usa?
Network HSPA/WCDMA:
*
900/2100 MHz
*
Up to 2 Mbps up-link and 7.2 Mbps down-link speeds
Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE:
*
850/900/1800/1900 MHz
(Band frequency and data speed are operator dependent.)
Check the official stats for the European version:
http://www.htc.com/www/product/hero/specification.html
HSPA/WCDMA:
•900/2100 MHz
T-Mobile uses 1700Mhz, so that won't work. AT&T uses 850Mhz and 1900Mhz so that won't work.
The 850/900/1800/1900 MHz bands mentioned are for GSM. So Yeah GPRS/Edge will work.
I understand that 3G on the magic(euro version) works through 900mHz and 2100mHz while the mytouch uses Tmo's 1700 and 2100mHz frequencies. From what i heard, even though the system uses two different frequencies for uplink and downlink, you can use 3G on Tmo using just the 2100mHz. So is there anyway I can get the magic to work on Tmo's 3G network?
this is a very n00bish question but is the HSUPA/HSDPA technology based in the phone or is it in the actual network...
the specs show this for the mytouch GSM: 850, 900, 1800, 1900 UMTS: Yes Bands: 1 (2100) & 4 (AWS 1700/2100) does that mean it can just use the 2100mHz if it does then the magic should be able to work on Tmo too right?
anyone got anything?
its not gonna work too well because the magics downlink is the 2100 while the mt3g downlink is 1700 so unless u uploading consistently you wont have 3g on the downlink
Magic is way better with the 288MB RAM over mytouch's 192MB.
So this is from the xiaomi.com website:
Network
Network standard WCDMA / GSM
Network frequency 2G: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz
3G: WCDMA 850,1900,2100 MHz
Data services GPRS / EDGE / HSPA +
Wikipedia says that T-Mobile runs on 850, 1900, and 2100 MHz. Does that mean that if I get a Xiaomi M1 and run it on T-Mobile, I can get 3G?

T-Mobile runs on AWS(1700)/2100, and you need both for 3G.
So no, you wouldn't get 3G.
AT&T runs on 850/1900, so you would get 3G with them.
Darn, I was really looking forward to the new $30 plans.
Lol I have the $25 grandfather plan with tmo unlimited
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.
