Hi there guys, been searching online but I can't seem to find anything definitive.
I m looking to buy a SGS2 online from someone who got it from the 3 network in the UK http://www.three.co.uk/
And I just want to make sure its compatible with the 3G for AT&T I know the korean version of the SGS2 was the Tmobile bands but I m not sure what bands 3 uses.
Thanks guys
yes its compatible with att bands just not tmo youll only have 2g on tmo.
Hey Everybody.
I'm going to the Caribbean soon and I would like to get a Note 3 from a carrier that lets me use a local sim in there.
What I need is:
Unlocked- If not I'll buy a code, don't mind.
UMTS 900 needed for 3G here.
Does the verizon Note 3 have these features or would I get those on the T-Mobile or AT&T version?
Let me know, thanks.
help please! Does anyone know which version samsung s5 works in s. korea and in US? any provider is fine.. (verizon, att, tmobile)
I am not very familiar with bandwidth and cell receptions. any contribution will be appreciated:good::good:
I brought my S5 from Korea to the U.S. From what I remember of my research it all depends on the carriers you want to use here and in Korea. I have T-mobile in the states and used a 900L variant through LG U+ in Korea. The bands available in this phone allows me to get perfect LTE in Korea. However, since bringing it back in the states I only get partial coverage. I am only able to get 3G. It's not ideal in my situation, but I am not worried about it. I recommend trying to figure out the available variants in Korea and the US and see which bands overlap the most.
Hi,
It seems i have to buy the phone in Hong Kong to use the TDD LTE network from China mobile.
Does anybody know, what version of the S7 edge is sold in Hong Kong, is it Snapdragon or Exynos?
How can i check the difference before i buy the phone? Do They have different version numbers marked on the packaging?
Thanks!
Does anybody know, what version of the S7 edge is sold in Hong Kong, is it Snapdragon or Exynos? Snapdragon 820 (G9350)
How can i check the difference before i buy the phone? Just check the packaging
Do They have different version numbers marked on the packaging? Just G9350
Last year when I was still living in HK (and traveling between the US & Bangkok) I had the option to get the S6 Edge in any of the 3 locations. I chose the G9250 version simply for the wider LTE band coverage. It was a mistake. True that I could use it anywhere I traveled to, I failed to realize that in each place, with a local SIM, you'll have to be subscribed/registered (or whatever you call it) to LTE, otherwise you'll be connected to at most HSPA+ - rendering all those LTE bands a moot point. What I was deprived of, as a result, was the lack of development support. I was so itching to root the phone and ticker the hell out of it but decided just to leave it as stock - even until now.
1 year latter, along came the S7 and the exact same choice. This time it was easy and there was absolutely no doubt, I went with the international Exynos version - 935FD (silver) and never looked back. And yes, I rooted, TWRPed, Xposed, but still on stock ROM. I am having fun with my phone again
Do yourself a big favor and pass on the HK/Chinese 820 SD version - especially if you want root and beyond.

Yea, that why i asked the question, i will only buy the phone if i am able to root it.
My main problem is that i mostly stay in China and China mobile has TDD LTE, i don't know if the international version of the S7 edge can use LTE.
Does anyone know if the international version works with china mobile?
I don't think even the SD820 935F version can be rooted yet, you'll probably have to wait even longer for the 9350.
So now you have a dilemma: Get the rootable 935F/FD and not be compatible with China Mobile's LTE TDD bands 38, 39, 40, 41 - OR - Get the 9350 and not being able to root.
Remember that you can easily switch to "China Telecom or China Unicom" both of which uses LTE bands 1,3,5 and 3 respectively.
You can also still get 2G/2.5G on China Mobile with the 935F/FD

Hello,
I know this is a year old but I just came across this whilst researching for the S8. Just to add, I have the 935F from the UK and it works fine on 4G on China Mobile, not restricted to 2G/2.5G at all.
Hi all,
I am considering buying an OP5 from Dubai, but I live in Europe (Switzerland).
Does anybody know if the specs vary around regions? Or is it safe to assume that 4G/4G+ will work (including band 20 etc.)?
Thanks

Please search. I'm sure you can easily find what your carriers Lte bands are and then research what's op5 bands are supported
I know what the bands for my carrier are and I can find the specs for OP5 on the Oneplus website. It appears that there are no differences in the hardware across regions but I wanted to confirm that. I know other brands (like Xiaomi) differentiate the hardware depending on the region where the phone is sold.
OP5 now supports 32 bands, all on same worldwide phone.
