Per site http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_nexus_6p-7588.php. I was looking at the supported bands for the nexus 6p. It's said there is an American and Global verison. Is this true ? If so, is the google play store selling the american version? The american version is selling the one that has 1700 band. Which only t-mobile uses
I presume if you order the phone from US store you will get the US version... I live in Canada and ordered the phone from US to get the free $50 Google Play card.
I believe so. Also the USA version actually has way more LTE bands than the International version AFAIK

Try to repeat that again in your head.
And think "Why would the NA version have more bands than the Int. version?".
So no, the Int. version has waaaay more bands than the NA version.

I believe it doesnt matter.
I live in Israel, I have ordered from the US Store.
We have the 850/2100 3G bands
and bands 3,7 for 4G
Hi. Does anyone know if the American version works with Vodafone UK 4g? I had 4g reception only at a Vodafone store (they've got a signal boost), nowhere else can't get 4g...
This may sound dumb but, can I somehow make the 6P American model to work on band 38(2600) INTL?

No. If the hardware doesn't support a specific band, then there's no way to make it work.
there are no difference, just use US version if you're in US. If you're outside, any version will be OK.
I used my US Nexus 6P while in Dubai and I had LTE. I think you should just get the US Version if you live in the US especially if you want to use Project Fi so that the phone can connect to the sprint and T-Mobile networks properly.

How about the other way around? I have the possibility to get an US version while visiting the States, but then I'll be back in Europe and the US version doesn't have the 20LTE band, which is the most common in EU. I'm worried it'll have an impact in the LTE reception and speed. Anyone uses an US version in Eu? How is it? I see there was another person in the UK asking the same bit got no definitive answer. Thanks,
Blah...... Go with the version that fits your carrier, common sense

Where are you getting these model numbers? The model number that comes on the 6P box is H1511 for North America & H1512 for International.
Bestbuy sells the international version of this phone and I am going to buy it unlocked. But before I do, I had a couple questions.
1. Does this support AT&T band 30? I tried to find the info but I cant seem to locate it
2. This is rootable and bootloader unlocked?
3. Do I need to do anything special as far as region unlocking since it is the international version?
Thanks!
I can't say anything regarding the band 30, region unlocking or AT&T, but I have the 935F edition unlocked and rooted with an custom ROM (Renovate EDGE 1.0) and it works perfect :good: .
But I'm from Germany, I don't now if there are some differences.

I am sure the phone will work on AT&T, just need to know if the international version has band 30 GSM support (AT&Ts XLTE 700mhz band).

Doesnt look like 30 is on there... crap. Maybe its not their 700mhz, but a different band. Regardless they are rolling it out now so would be nice to see that band compatibility.
Band 30 is 2.3ghz, my fault.

I got it from B&H instead.
How will i go about updating this phone? Will it receive updates from Samsung, or do I have to manually install them? Being that it isn't an AT&T phone etc.
Thanks
Hello XDA community! I am hoping that you can either help solve my problem, or tell me that it is unsolvable.
Recently I purchased this phone:
Galaxy S5
Model: SM-G900F
Baseband: G900FXXU1CPH1
Kernel: 3.4.0-8193525
Android Version: 6.0.1
Now, it was region locked in Germany since it was factory reset upon purchase. I made the 5 minute call and got this all sorted out.
However, when I insert my microSIM from T-Mobile USA, it seems I cannot connect to a network here in Germany though it lists 4. I know this is possible itself because I have been doing it for 2 years with a different phone purchased in the USA. It should be noted that this microSIM I'm now attempting to use with the S5 has not been activated itself yet because I was using the older larger sim in a Samsung Galaxy Blaze 4G until now.
I've read through many forums and tried to wrap my head around if I simply purchased the wrong phone that will not work at all with the T-mobile USA network, though the specs make me think otherwise (listed below), at least at 2g (which is mostly what I get anyway when abroad with T-mobile's anywhere free data deal), or if I need to activate the microSIM in another way, or if I can load a new baseband. This is why I'm reaching out to you all and hoping someone has some great information.
I'd also like to know if I will have trouble then using this phone when I return to the USA, and also if it will work in Australia.
Thanks a ton and all the best,
EJM

Hello, quick question. What model of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus works best on T-Mobile as far as coverage when UNLOCKED? An UNLOCKED SM-G928T or an UNLOCKED SM-G928A? I'm sure it would seem obvious that the SM-G928T would be best since it's a T-Mobile-branded phone, but check out these Network Specs for each phone:
SM-G928T (T-Mobile) - LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 12(700), 20(800)
SM-G928A (AT&T) - LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 12(700), 17(700), 20(800)
Their identical models, except for the minor fact that one has access to band 8 and the other has access to band 17.
Now, band 8 is an international band, and doesn't really affect domestic coverage, however, band 17 is an AT&T band, so it would seem better to get the UNLOCKED AT&T model for T-Mobile SIM card/service as it has extra access to AT&T towers through band 17 thus providing better coverage, if I'm not mistaken. The AT&T variant has ALL of the bands that T-Mobile uses (2, 4 & 12) PLUS the bands that AT&T uses (2, 4, 5, 12 & 17). Is this theory correct, or no? Just asking.

Yeah, unfortunately I have to pick out of the two. It looks like the international variant, SM-G928G, doesn't have a reasonably-priced 64GB edition and not worth paying for at the moment.

I think the international one has all bands, so it's more likely to be the best.
Edit: meant the g5 plus.
Any using this on freedompop? Been thinking of buying it to replace my moto e
Yes it works. Your on the wrong forum. This for the G5.
Sorry the question was for the g5 plus, mistyped.
Any luck?
No problem. Yes I works. The G5 Plus XT1687 can pretty much grab all 5 major networks without an issue. So any MVNO uses any of the big 5 can use the network. Freedompop uses Sprint and AT&T networks I know so you should be great. Nothing yet for the 600 Mhz yet, as alot of that spectrum was just purchased. At the end of the year some networks will begin using it here in the US.

got it working on freedompop.
I just set up Moto 5g Plus with Freedompop and I couldn't activate (turn on) my tether hotspot option (it will run with a circular arrow looking for service) and then a message pops up to indicate it couldn't activate)... has anyone successfully activate Freedompop plan ($24.99) with 2G using tether?
Yes it works fine for me with metro pcs.
