Hi all, I am writing from Italy.
I read from technical specification on Zenfone 3 to understand if band 20 (800 MHZ) is supported by ZE520KL.
It seems not supported.
In Italy there are some carriers that works on this frequency. So, it is important to use LTE in the best condition.
I contacted technical support by ASUS but I never obtained a reply (neither YES or NO for this question) .
Is there a code of the type *# xx# or an app to verify if a zenfone 3 is compatible with this band?
thank you very much in advance for your reply

What I dig from gsmarena, it supports 18(800) and 19(800). Guess you're out of luck, mate.
compared to GSMarena, It is very reliable the infomation from frequencycheck.com about a zenfone 3 global LTE :
for other italians with the same problem or uncertainity.

Unfortunately you seem to want LTE band 40 which is not supported by any Note3 model, so it seems the answer is NO

Actually I don't know if they call the 2300 band 40 band.
But it's really bad news to me that it can not be supporting. :crying:
Thank you any way for replying.

I think yes because elephone P8000 is using same processor and it has FDD-LTE 800mhz support ... I had to buy a elephone p8000 instead M2 Note
Hello !
I've contacted Samsung, to obtain informations about LTE bands supported by SM-G928F, model available in France.
They sent my ask to technical support, but no news since many days.
I would like to know, because many sites delivers differents informations. In France we have the next bands :
- Band 3 (1800 FDD)
- Band 7 (2600 FDD)
- Band 20 (800 FDD)
- Band 28 (700 FDD, enabled in may 2016)
PDADB says it's OK, but Device Specifications NO, and GSM Arena has not this model.
Can you help me please ?

Hi Frederic,
What I would suggest to you is to try contact Samsung Technical Support through their LIVE CHAT that they have on their site. I found one on samsung.com, but it only offical supports US Models of Edge+ there, but anyway, the Technical Support guy could still help me in my case (I'm from Europe).
Maybe give it a go?
Best,

Hello !
Yes I've tried to contact us by mail, and with chat, and I'm waiting for an answer, but no contact since many days
That's for this reason I post a new subject on XDA.
Have a good night !
Hello to all,
I have a ZenFone 2 Laser (ZE500KL). Asus support said me that is a Taiwanese version.
The issue is that is not working with LTE network in my country, only with 2G and 3G. Here is used AWS1 that is the same AWS band 4 (1700/2100 MHz) 1700 for uplink and 2100 for downlink. Asus support said me that I have nothing to do since is a hardware issue because the antenna doesn't work in 1700/2100.
Is there a way to know if this handset could be enabled to work with LTE AWS Band 4?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards
First thing first, I'm sorry if my reply did not help you, and this is based on my limited understanding...
Simple answers would be nothing, nothing you can do if this is "hardware" limitation as asus told you.
Now the explanation, note that I'm not knowledgeable about this thing, so I don't think could give a meaningful explanation.
From what I've read, LTE, on different country use different band (1700, 2100, etc). And by that, just say *not the real reason, just play along with it*, "device built by limiting hw capabilities to certain band, to work on region A, because that device didn't meant to work/used outside region A" . This might the reason, you could see asus with WW or TW variant. They limit the device hardware to work only with certain band range.
This is hardware, not software/firmware (if you compare it to like some "unlocked provider device") . So you can't do anything about it.
This is like, using CDMA phone with GSM card, they work at different band. AFAIK it didn't work, cmiiw.
Oh, IIRC, old phone (before Android born) mostly have triband (GSM) you might won't be able to use your device outside your country. Then, newer phone, till now, use quad band to support usability around the globe. cmiiw
I hope you get what I'm trying to say there~
I don't know what it mean about LTE aws 1 / aws 4, I don't think this is just band length (1700/2100).

Hi everyone! I hope this was not discussed before but, really I'm trying to identify my phone and i couldn't.
Ok I bought it in Banggood and when I did the order i chose YD201 version for have LTE in my country (Spain) but my surprise is when i received the phone in the box described like YD206. I start the phone and inside of the rom , when i was woing to settings i found is YD201, so how to know it? Someone happened the same?
Thanks in advance.
I think that there is a big confusion with Yotaphone 2 phones.
There were some versions that used Snapdragon 800 chip, that is able to use band 20 (800MHz).
But all the latest use Snapdragon 801, which seems is not able to use band 20. I don't know if it is just lacking the antenna or chip has no support.
You can look up numerous band unlocking tutorials and you'll discover none of them are able to unlock band 20 800MHz.
You can still get LTE on other frequencies. LTE runs on 800 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz and 2600 MHz, depends on your operator.
I'd be happy if someone prooved me wrong.
