All Sprint Worldphones are unlocked out of the box. So to answer your question.....Yes, you can use the Photon on non-US GSM networks.

Just insert your sim and talk away but i think it runs on 1900mhz or is it 1700mhz either way no 2100mhz band for 3g

hello, a question and I thank those who replied to me.
4g use the photon in Europe, setting network on GSM / UMTS, but when you restart the phone the setting is not saved.
because 'every time I do the setting.
A patch a program to solve the problem?

[Q] German SGSII

Simple question,
Does the German version SGSII, MPN GT-I9100LKAXEU work on ATT 850/2100 HSDPA network? Or for that matter all bands on HSDPA.
Thanks

Att hspa network is 850\1900, so if it has this bands then it will work.

Can anyone tell me for certain that this phone has the 850 band for HSDPA?
I cant find any definite tech specs that specify.

[Q] Can I Change GSM bands to 900/1800?

I was wondering if it were possible to use my phone in China this summer. The network I would like to use (China Mobile) is using the GSM bands 900/1800. Is there any way to convert my phone to use those bands?
Thanks.
No. The radio/modem only works on the manufacturer specified frequencies.
Um. The i717 is quadband GSM and it supports 850/900/1800/1900 2g or GSM.
Of course it will work! But only on 2g and only if unlocked.

I see, I looked it up as well and it seems as though it supports the following bands:
2G Network GSM 850/1800/1900
3G Network HSDPA 850/900/1700/1900/2100
Hopefully I'll be able to just plug it in and go. I've networked unlocked my phone, but are there are any other limitations set by AT&T for usable bands?

Amaze 4g bands

Hi
i want to buy an Tmob AMAZE 4G but i'v noticed that there are 2 types of AMAZE'S with different bands :
http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_amaze_4g-4097.php
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 1700 / 2100
or
HSDPA 1700 / 1900 / 2100
HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
in Israel im using the HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100 bands how i'll know that the device is match the bands?
regards
just look at the place you are buying from they should mention it.. ebay seller should mention it and also stores
and if you are in cellcom you only need the 2100 band.
orange and cellcom use 3g 2100 band and pelephone use 850 band
im buying 2nd hand/...
When I was in Palestine, I used my phones and they all worked on Orange. I have my Amaze box in my hand. The T-Mobile Amaze has the 850/900/1800/1900/2100 frequencies. So it will work.

Hey, did you get the T-Mobile Amaze 4G and use it on the 850 band?
I have windmobile amaze 4g (same as Tmob works on aws) and I have used Sims from other carriers including 850 and works fine. Of course, my phone is unlocked.

Well it will certainly work to make calls, but the main issue is whether or not it will work on the 850 MHz band to use 3G and 4G. That's what I need clarified.
Looks like your question was answered. In the future, all question related threads belong in the Q&A section only. Thank You.

4G LTE and 3G not working.

I got a Verizon HTC one M7 unlocked phone. I inserted the Tmobile 4G card but I couldn't connect to 4G or even 3G data network. Can anyone please help me. I spend like 400 bucks for the phone and its useless if I dont get this.
Do you have 3G and 4G Coverage at your place with T-Mobile? Did you try it at other places?
4G: Does the Phone support the bands your network provider is using?

From the HTC site: M7/Verizon: ... UMTS/HSPA 1900/2100MHz,GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900MHz, LTE Band 13
So you need to check if TMOUS has 3G 1900 in your area. 4G is entirely out of the question.

I think 4G service on Verizon device even if you unlock them will not work on GSM sim card. Try hooking up your device on CDMA service and see what happen.
Did you change the apn setting?? And far as I know with Verizon they blocked most of the gsm signals so unless you flash a new modem no dice

You are wrong. HTC one UMTS/HSPA 900/2100, not 1900/2100. So it can't use 3G on AT&T or Tmobile

It's not uncommon at all to make different variants of the same phone for different networks. If the phone doesn't have the bands then no amount of flashing other things is going to make a difference.
