Hi guys.
Sorry if it sounds like a noobish question, but I had to ask it before I pre-order the S800 variant of the Note 3. My main reason for doing so being the developer support, looking at how the EXYNOS devices are a bit of a mess in this aspect. I mostly use WifFi.
I just wanted to ask that will I be able to use the S800 variant without any issues in a country (Oman) that's still not very big in terms of LTE. I mean, in terms of getting normal mobile services. Like mentioned above, not really bothered about LTE per se, just that I'd like to have the S800 version for the developer and community support.
Thanks!

well, looking at the different frequency bands used in your country from wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mobile_network_operators_of_the_Middle_East_and_Africa#Oman
I found out that Oman uses the 2100MHZ band for UMTS, and looking at the used frequencies in LTE from this wikipedia article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks#Middle_East
I found out that your country uses either the 1800Mhz or the 2300Mhz bands depending on the network.
Given what you need, I would go with the international 4G version N9005 if you wanted LTE support or the international 3G version N9000.
From negrielectronics.com, the N9005 supports the following bands:
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network LTE 800 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600

As you can clearly see, the 2100Mhz band needed for 3G is supported by the international version, however, only the 1800Mhz is supported for LTE, so you might have LTE or not depending on what network you are on.
As for the N9000:
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Also, you can clearly see that the needed band for 3G, the 2100Mhz band, is supported, so you will have 3G in your country.
BOTH of these mentioned variants are SD800 variants, and they will both work for 3G in your country, you can check them out at:

Thank you sharl1987! That's good information.
So basically I should not have an issue using this device.

Yes, I do not foresee any problems with the device you are planning to purchase, it supports the 2100 Mhz band needed for your country. However, just to be in the safe side, I would call your mobile carrier and verify that they indeed are using the 2100Mhz band for 3G, I can guarantee my findings, I cannot vouch for the information I found on wikipedia.

Actually it most probably won't work given that all EU versions will only work on European sim cards on the GN3 for some reason. I would recommend getting it from Omasco just to be sure.

well my reply was before the damn announced region locked move. I am so pissed of about it. BYE BYE SAMSUNG
Hi, Does any know if its all vice versa?
NOTE3 AT&T and T-Mobile NOTE3 using it with a T-Mobile SIM, (vice versa) T-mobile & A&T NOTE3 using AT&T SIM?
(Both NOTE3 is unlocked & using in urban BIG city)
Will there be any difference speed LTE and speed 3G & 4G you receive?
Will the LTE signal not be as strong each other?
Will be any problem each other (vice versa)?
Do you think we can enable AWS on NOTE3 AT&T? (same like Note2 and S4 AT&T)
Which hardware Note3 AT&T or T-Mobile is better having multi-LTE or more compability network each other (freq band spectrum)?
I don't really know much about LTE signals between AT&T and T-Mobile, compatibility, etc. So, I was wondering if you can help me to decide which one are those? How long to get unlock code from the 1st day i purchased with full price NOTE3 AT&T and T-Mobile?
Please...please... help for answer & information. I'm very appreciate and thank you so much for explanation everything. :good::victory:
P.S. Sorry & apologize about my bad english
If S4 history repeats itself the ATT buyers will be stung with crappy locked bootloaders. Meanwhile the TMO device is pentaband and unlocked bootloader. Depending on battery life benchmarks the only sane decision is between TMO Note 3 and the international N3.

Regarding your question, I opted for the T-Mobile version. Location will determine network performance...

But am i right?, Note3 International may not be able to use in T-Mobile LTE, right? thanks
Not to hijack the thread but does anyone know which one would be compatible for Wind/Mobilcity (Aws Canadian Market)?
Note 3 from At&Tor T-Mobile... in the past I believe T-Mobile phones are compatible because of 1700 and 2100 frequencies... however due to T-Mobile refarming (I have limited knowledge about it) and new frequencies.... would an At&t note 3 be modified to work on aws
????

To my knowledge, the international Note 3 does not have LTE radios. It has an octacore instead of quad but thats the trade off.

There are two models: one is the octa-core with no LTE. The other is Snapdragon 800 with LTE. However, both will only get HSPA+ on AT&T (anywhere) and HSPA+ on T-Mobile (in refarmed areas). The international LTE model won't get US LTE because we don't use the same LTE bands as they do in Europe.
In the US, if you're on a GSM network the best model to get is the T-Mobile model, even if you're on AT&T. It works 100% with AT&T and T-Mobile (refarmed areas or not) and has an unlocked bootloader.

I apologize to bring up an old thread, but I figured I'd ask it here as opposed to starting yet another thread.
Do you know if the Tmobile Note 3 is pentaband (i.e., like the Nexus 4/5)? I'm planning to use it outside of the US and just need to know if it can get 3G in European countries.
A poster above mentioned that the Tmobile Note 3 version is pentaband, but googling for the answer to this has yielded no solid results.
Thanks!
Here is the T-mo website:

here is the frequencies:

3G/4G/LTE Capable
GSM: 850, 900, 1800, 1900
3G/UMTS: Band I (UMTS 2100), Band II (1900), Band IV (1700/2100/AWS), Band V (850)

Yes. 850/900/1800/1900 on EDGE, and 850/[900 isn't mentioned but I assume it's there]/1700/1900/2100 for HSPA+. It should work fine.
EDIT: Confirmed 900 MHz is there. Look at the last post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2536817
Europe uses 900 and 2100 MHz for HSPA+ mainly. Both are supported. The AT&T version would also work fine, but the T-Mobile version is the best one to get because of the unlocked bootloader and additional AWS support (1700 MHz), which T-Mobile uses in the US. To me it's worth paying a little more for the T-Mobile version.

[Q] Difference btwn Carrier phone(t-mobile, AT&T etc.) & International n9005 LTE
Hi,
I would like to know if theres a difference between a carrier phone(t-mobile, AT&T etc.) & International n9005 LTE? I try looking up the information and through the forums but I'm still kind of confuse and dont have a set answer. I know the carrier phone is n900 but other than that is there any differences? I live in the US. now but I use to have international phones in case I travel, rooting wise and etc. But after the regional lock issue, I'm not sure which version to buy now.
Thank you!!:good:

It is my understanding and I am sure I will be corrected that the N900T, A V etc are not region locked. Just carrier locked. Fellow forum member did a nice write up about the differences of the US Carrier versions. His name is Mircury.
As far as I know the carrier models are carrier and region locked but if you root the device you can use ChainFire's region away app and you will be able to swap out sim cards based on your location. T-Mobile just unveiled free world roaming data usage though and with T-Mobile you can use WiFi calling so if you are outside the country you can use the data and make calls on WiFi at no additional cost.
The Carrier-specific versions have a few LTE bands unlocked that the International one doesn't.

so technically speaking international n9005LTE will not be compatible with t-mobile's 3g or 4g LTE? as the bandwidth as I see the people mention in that forum is not compatible?
I went to a store to check the phone out and a seller of the international n9005 told me the data will be running on H? would you happen to know what it means?
Thanks !

HSPA perhaps? I am not rooted or have I used Chairfires method. I have two options to prove this case, either buy a UK sim card here and put it in my phone and see what occurs or wait til I get there.
The N900T seems to okay, yes if you want to use it here on ATT or T mobile at least. With perhaps a little roaming overseas.
There is also another thread named something like Region locked, its over 100 pages, good luck!

The order of speed is this: (Network/Signal Designation)
GSM/G (2G)
GPRS/G+ (2.5G)
EDGE/E (2.75G)
UMTS/3G (3G)
HSPA/H (3.5G)
HSPA+/H+ (3.75G)
LTE (3.9G)
LTE Advanced (4G)
So H is HSPA = 3.5G.
International N9005 can get the 3G signal on pretty much any frequency, including US. It's the LTE bands that are incompatible.
T-Mobile US runs LTE on the 1700Mhz band, and 3G on the 1900Mhz band.
AT&T and Verizon use the 700, 1700 and 2100Mhz band for LTE, and 850 and 1900Mhz for 3G.
Sprint uses the 800, 1900 and 2500Mhz for LTE, and 800 and 1900Mhz for 3G.
N9005 International gets:
GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G/LTE 800 / 850 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600.

So pretty much you won't be able to get a factory unlocked LTE Note 3 working on T-Mobile LTE? Please tell me I'm mistaken.
Hi all,
I've been scouring the web for information that can confirm that any of the Note 4 Exynos variants support the 800 MHz (Band 20) on 4G LTE. From what I've gathered, it seems to be only LTE 850 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600. Which sucks big time..
The reason is because I have Vodafone 4G in the UK, which runs only on 800 MHz. So, does anyone know of a Note 4 Exynos version (which country?) that supports 800 MHz (Band 20) on 4G LTE?
Appreciate any help!

I think Samsung have purposely screwed us on this
Why the hell not to include the 800 MHz band, it is the most standard of all.
A site I was looking at the other day had the 800 mhz box ticked on 4g. I assume that means it works if that's what we're on about. I'm a noob when it comes to this stuff. The site is eglobalcentral.co.uk if you want to look. Look for the note 4 and click specifications (I'm too much of a scrub to be allowed links ^^. Not sure how accurate that is or if it's what you were after.

You are definitely right about that. They do have it ticked. The question now is, who to trust, eglobalcentral.co.uk or samsung.com? Haha
It could be something that eglobalcentral.co.uk overlooked, I'll email them to double check.
Thanks for the link!
I think N910C support LTE on 800MHz.
I'm wondering about this as well as I have Vodafone 4G.

Hi all,
I've been scouring the web for information that can confirm that any of the Note 4 Exynos variants support the 800 MHz (Band 20) on 4G LTE. From what I've gathered, it seems to be only LTE 850 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600. Which sucks big time..
The reason is because I have Vodafone 4G in the UK, which runs only on 800 MHz. So, does anyone know of a Note 4 Exynos version (which country?) that supports 800 MHz (Band 20) on 4G LTE?
Appreciate any help!

i already have several threads on this topic
Why would they sell the developer edition for less than the locked down Verizon edition?
Can the dev edition be activated on VZW?

Guess I would have realized that if I had read the big (Verizon) text on that page.. Or looked at the photo of the back.
I assume the $200 trade-in doesn't apply to it, so for most it will be more expensive than getting a preorder.

correct lol and doubt we can get the $200 off on it. and i am going to go for it once my g3 sells and i get regular retail locked note 4
Perfect! Thanks!
I'm guessing this unit will work on most any US carrier. I back ordered mine on Samsung site, hopefully it happens soon and the price stays the same. There's chance may not even be charged tax and shipping is free.

Does anyone have any legitimate source for the LTE bands supported by the Developer Edition?
This is all that is listed on Samsung's site, and frankly, this tells me nothing.
2.5G (GSM/ GPRS/ EDGE) : 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz;
3G (HSPA＋ 42Mbps): 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 MHz;
4G (LTE Cat 4 150/50Mbps) or 4G (LTE Cat 6 300/50Mbps)***
Seems odd that they would omit exactly what LTE bands are supported by the phone.
-Thanks

Thanks, but I am looking for exactly what LTE bands are supported. My apologies if I was unclear on that.
Same LTE bands as regular Verizon Note 4:
Network: LTE Band 13/4 (700/1700 MHz)
CDMA/1xEVDO Rev. A (800/1900 MHz)
Global Network: EDGE/GSM (850/900/1800/1900)
HSPA/UMTS(850/900/1900/2100)

Yeah, this is the unfortunately the same thing Verizon advertises about the Galaxy S5, despite the fact that it also at least supports 2600 (band 7) MHz(and likely more). Verizon only bothers to mention the bands in which Verizon supports, not the phone. Hence the request for a legitimate source. Thanks though.

Do you research it will have the same bands smh
digging into bands deeper the first thing you posted it has this at the bottom: * May differ by country and carrier
Network
2.5G (GSM/GPRS/EDGE) : 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
3G (HSPA＋ 42Mbps): 850/900/1900/2100 MHz
4G (LTE Cat.4 150/50Mbps) or 4G (LTE Cat.6 300/50Mbps)
* May differ by country and carrier

Oh, I wonder why they bothered to display any specs at all, that last line covers everything. Syh all you want. Considering the Note 4 Developer Edition by all available information, seems to be a Verizon exclusive, it may be fair to conclude that "differing by country and carrier" might be limited to Verizon, and the USA. Further more, the Samsung site displays more/conflicting information with the Note 4 on Verizon's site. (non-developer edition). (4G (LTE Cat 4 150/50Mbps) : B2 / B4 / B5 / B12 / B17) -Hmmm, weird, more than 2 bands listed.
So to reiterate with clarity, does anyone have a comprehensive, reliable source to determine the LTE bands (and frequencies) supported by the Note 4 Developer Edition.
-Thanks
Doesn't matter now...It has now disappeared from the Samsung site, No trace of it...Bummer
