F320 GSM frequencies - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello I am considering to buy LG F320.
I know there are 3 versions of F320 but I cannot find correct information about supported 3G frequencies.
So is there a F320 that will support my carrier frequencies?
GSM 900 + 1800.
3G 900 + 2100.
thanks!

all of them after: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059

So you are saying, that all versions of F320 have the same hardware?
Are you sure that it will support :
GSM 900 + 1800.
3G 900 + 2100.
??

Yes, the different frequencies on GSM/3G are configurable, see the link i've posted.

Is the Qualcomm chip on the new TMo SGS2 worth it than the Exynos siblings?

Just as the question say:
TMo SGS2 Qualcomm vs. SGS2 siblings (AT&T/Sprint) Exynos... Is it worth it?
Found this on the other forum that I found interesting, and could be a debatable topic:
The AWS (1700) bands are supported only by a handful of carriers. It doesn't exist at all in Europe and Asia. There's little reason for manufacturers to include it on their global phones as so few people use it. It's the reason the T-Mobile SGS2 has a Qualcomm chip instead of Exynos like the rest of them. After the merger, it won't even exist in the U.S. any longer as AT&T plans on using it (1700) for LTE. If you want versatility and the ability to use unlocked phones, change to AT&T.
^Even international version doesn't support T-Mobile 3g/4g (HSPA+) network.. Not many phones support their network. Or maybe it will.. but not everywhere

[Q] Noob question about GSM and Quadband Frequency

I was thinking about buying me a open line LG Optimus G2 then bringing it to japan, and give it as a gift. Ive been doing some research on the net, and it says that Japan doesnt support of use GSM frequency band, because they are not using 2G or something? Can someone please enlight me or explain this to me. How this things work, because i had already tried, and called the site here in norway that who are selling it. They told that it supposed to work but, after i have done my search on my own, i really doubt that what he told me. lol
So can somebody please or tell or can confirm to me that working or not?
These are the frequency band of LG Optimus G2: 2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network LTE 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600 / 850
Thank you for your answer

Need expert help: do all snapdragon LTE support same bands?

I was recently told by a senior member of this forum that all snapdragon LTE support the same bands, and the bands are activated based on the sim card inserted.
is this true?
i went on samsung's website to compare the g900f and the canadian version of the s5, the supported bands listed are different.
i'm contemplating on buying the g900f, european version but i'm concerned with not being able to get on the 4g network here in Canada with the euro variant.
thanks for any input.

is the difference in the hardware or what region modem is on the device?

On the chipset side of things there's only one difference: Exynos (G900H) and Snapdragon (the rest of models).
All Exynos carry an Intel baseband (of dubious power efficiency IMHO)
The modem as you mentioned and the carrier variants are responsible for the multitude of Snapdragon variants.

So essentially my 900I can be turned into a 900F with a modem flash?

Nope, I think. The baseband must be different I would assume, they support different bands.
Just a little sample of what I mean:
3G Network:

HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100 - SM-G900A
HSDPA 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100 - SM-G900T
HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 - SM-G900V, SM-G900P (CDMA)

Hi! I have a similar question. I bought a GS5 (G900F Version, imported from Asia), In my country (Chile) it works on 4G LTE 2,6GHz, but the lower band of 4G is 700MHz, which apparently is not supported by this model (it supports 800MHz).
The official model here is the G900M, so my question is if I can flash the "modem.bin" from a G900M to my G900F, with Odin, but without rooting my device (to avoid Knox tripping or Imei problems)? Is it possible? or I simply waste my money?
Sorry for my bad english...
Thanks for your help!!!

No it wont work on many accounts, basically you cant flash a different CSC firmware etc to an alternate CSC device unless you change the CSC of that device or root(and of course the lte modem may not be supported). (an app called Phone INFO is available on Play Store to check, use at your own risk). That doesnt mean it is impossible, however, it is highly unlikely. I hope that cleared things up

D802 or LS980 or Vs980 or F320 ??

Hi Friends,
I need suggestion from you guys that which version should i go for ? I am from PAKISTAN and I heard that some versions of the LG G2 not are working means 4G or 3G is not working correctly. And also tell me which version has most features like sd card support and removable battery as well as 3000mah(not 2650mah that some versions are giving) and also have most support from developers.
Would be very thankful if someone help me in buying lg g2.
Thanks !

If i buy ls980 does it have any disadvantage ? Means any boatloader or any other issue ? And 1 more thing does it have dev support ?
Thanks.
Except isai l22 other variants have good devs support. I have an ls980 unlocked and I use it on gsm in europe. But not lte/4g. If you can afford it buy a variant that full support your carrier frequencies.

Redmi 3S - Global version vs Chinise

I have a question about hardware difference between Xiaomi Redmi 3S China version and the Global one.
I thought that the only difference is the EU-plug, but I noticed this item on aliexpress with LTE B20 (800MHz) support.
I asked the seller about it and the seller insists that all of that is true.
Can someone confirm or deny this situation?

i don't think that there is any hardware difference
it's one device
the one with global rom , i guess it has the adapter , google services (and play) and some chinese apps removed

well the only think that i am sure is that as an european is difficult to find the "india" version
(because i know -and can buy from - only chinese stores)
also 2 band for lte is weird so i guess it's just a rom limitation or just incomplete list of specs (because it doesn't matter for India the other bands)
p.s. i don't see roms only for india , i only see china and global roms
Their hardwares should be same.
Charger different
China version don't have Google Play service+bandwidth those stuffs should be different?
so... any more infos about the 800MHz FDD-LTE support ?
anyone tried to unlock the bootloader on a chinese version and flashing a xiaomi.eu multilang rom to see if B20/800 is available ?
This is of great interest to me too. I want to buy two Redmi 3s's, but need B20 as well. If it's as easy as flashing the global/international ROM, it would save me lots of $$. Has anyone tried this and succeeded using B20 on a Chinese 3s?
I bought the international version of Redmi 3s, and the B20/800 is working! Also arrived with official global ROM

No. There's should not be and hardware differences until it comes to Mobile Broadband frequencies, but i think this is software dependent. As you flash Global or Chinese you choose frequencies probably. I use Global Stable with Root and some tools and it's just fine.

Thank you!
So I have 2016031. If the information I provided above is correct, that means I have all necessary bands for Europe.
The problem is I found different information here:
============
Xiaomi: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/redmi-3s-with-lte-b20-800mhz.33957/
2016030 is 32gb version
2016031 is 16gb version
Both without b20
https://www.frequencycheck.com/mode...i-3s-4g-redmi-3s-dual-sim-td-lte-32gb-2016030
https://www.frequencycheck.com/mode...i-3s-4g-redmi-3s-dual-sim-td-lte-16gb-2016031
============
2016031 is 16gb version THIS IS STRANGE RIGHT, I HAVE 32GB VERSION and it is model 2016031
What is correct?
I have model 2016031 with 32Gb - do I have LTE B20 (800) and LTE B8 (900) or not?
I hope someone knows?

Yes, you do.
I have the same model and ROM capacity.
Look at my october post, you can find there links to official Xiaomi pages with the band availability information.
There is no information about model numbers there, but it was confirmed by many users.
Thank you for your help!
I see indeed all the bands under specifications.
I am very happy.
