i have an x10a unlocked and im tired of att bs so im leaving them will my x10 work on sprints network or just tmobile?
depends on the bands, not sure but guess both can work
if any of them accept an HTC HD2 then the x10 will be working on their network

Hey you guys. Currently own the HTC Touch Pro 2 AKA AT&T Tilt 2
I'd love to own the new HD2 but I dont know where to find one online for a good price and if its capable of the AT&T 3G GSM bands.
Second phone I'm deciding on is the Sony Xperia X10, and again, I see the only 3G band it can get from AT&T is the 2100 band.
So the lesser the bands it can connect to, the less 3G service I can get? Am I correct?
Thanks.
bump anybody?
You'll need a Telstra HD2 if you want AT&T 3G. As for the X10, the Canadian Rogers version would work on AT&T 3G bands as well.

Thanks Chuck. I've seen the Telstra HD2's and their really expensive at the moment and have to load a hack rom on it for it to work.
What would you think of this Xperia?

Hey you guys, got a question about an unlocked TMOBILE HD2, would it work with AT&T 3G network?

That one won't work with AT&T 3G. You're looking for something with 850/1900MHz 3G support. The white version of the X10 on that site would work.

No, T-Mobile and AT&T do not use the same 3G bands. It will not be compatible with AT&T's 3G network. The best you'll get is EDGE.

Thank you again Chuck. I appreciate it. Now I will decide what cellphone to pick.
I have a Streak in great condition I noticed it has a wcdma option so its gsm and cdma is there a way to port to sprint
Tx in advance
wcdma is a GSM technology
it wont work period on sprint since it has no GSM network, it will work on verizon since they have a GSM network (but they dont heavily advertise that fact)
You need a CDMA phone for sprint (which the streak isnt)
You say it can work on verizon? Will 3g work? Also verizon doesnt have sim cards so how does this work care too explain? Thanks
sent from my Dell Streak
it'll be edge only, you can buy a pay as you go phone and use the sim card out of that (most verison payg phones are also CDMA though)
You might be able to go to a kiosk/store and ask
Thanks I bought this to resell it but im really digging it guess will have to proceed to sell it as planned already in a contract with sprint
will this phone work with tmobile if its unlocked??
No.
^_^_^
Not at all. Nor would a tmobile phone work on Verizon's network.

Telus is a CDMA network, like Verizon down in the US. The Streak is a GSM device and doesn't see CDMA networks. Thus you're limited to Rogers or other GSM networks.

I guess by now you know that CDMA and GSM are 2G, and both Telus and Rogers are on 3G (HSPA) now, and as long as the phone is unlocked, you can use it on each other's network.
I am using my Streak from Rogers on the Telus network, with full data access. What you need is the right APN setting, and the betwork selection set to Auto
OP: anyway you know if your phone can support 850/1900 HSPA network ?
Otherwise, the Rogers network you see is just GSM

HSPA is a GSM standard, otherwise the Streak won't see the network. If that were not the case, then Streaks would function on Verizon and Sprint's networks in the States. Verizon and Sprint utilize EVDO for 3G, and LTE for 4G. Those are CDMA standards, and thus Streaks won't work on Verizon or Sprint. However, Bell and Telus have gone with dual networks, keeping CDMA support for older phones and utilizing HSPA for newer.
Apparently from your post Telus did get its HSPA network up and running. Good news, and my fault for doing improper research, as you note. Thanks for rubbing salt into the wound.

Haha ... no, not intention to correct you in public, just some clarifications.
It's all cool !
Just hope the OP can set it up ... perhaps check the Telus site for APN settings.

Hello, I have a dumb question probably, sorry for that
I'm from UK and im planning to buy this phone from canada. It is sim free, but will it work on UK network???
thank you very much
It will work in the UK but verify that your carrier support the 3G/4G frequencies. If it doesn't, then you will be using 2G/Edge.
I'm on o2 UK with no problems. 3G works fine, not had the chance to see if 4G would work..
I might be selling my Amaze if you are interested?
A couple of very fine scratches on glass but you can't see with screen on anyway. S-off, rooted, unlocked, 4ext recovery.. etc.
Pick a Rom and I'll even put it on for you..
PM me..
