Title pretty much sums it up.
Thanks for your answers.
//edit: Solved, found out that At&t and T-mobile are using regular GSM like europe.

Im in China and the S2 is available in WCDMA form. I'm currently on Verizon wireless will this phone be compatible with Verizon or any other US carrier? Sorry if this question has already been asked/answered, Im on a very slow connection and having trouble searching. Thanks for anyone that helps!

If your phone is AT&T I'd try the AT&T one first
A relative give me an LG optimus one. His friend sent it to him from China, and he unlocked it and used it on Rogers Wireless (Canada). I do not know if the phone is rooted or if it has been flashed with a new baseband or rom. On the "about phone" page, it shows the phone model as: lg P500h.
I am interested in using it with Mobilicity (Canada). I borrowed a friend's Mobilicity sim card and tried it on the phone. When I scanned for networks, it did not find the Mobilicity Network. I know Mobilicity requires AWS 1700/2100 band, while Rogers does not.
Did I need to do something different between switching the sim cards and searching for the networks? or how can I tell for certain if the phone supports the AWS 1700/2100 band? Would flashing the new baseband make the AWS bands available??
Thanks for any response.
Has anyone gotten back to you on this? I have the same prepaid phone that belongs to Telus and would like to unlock and use in WIND Mobile.... I also have an unlocked BB Torch 9800(Initially with bell) now using with Telus as well. I would like to use both phones with WIND Mobile if possible.
Thanks,
I would attempt at flashing new baseband and see if that works for you...

Wind works on 1700, according to wind. The p500h (same phone I have...with koodo) does 2100 but not 1700. No carrier in north America does 2100. Sorry. It'll work on all the other networks, though.

It won't work on WIND or Mobilicity. You have an Optimus One. To use a p500, you'd need an Optimus T, which was modified to work on 1700/2100. If you'd like a cheap phone to use on Mobilicity, I'd suggest looking for a T-mobile Samsung Exhibit II on ebay.
So I bought a new SGII 1777 for a really good deal. Brand new out of box, etc. Anyways, T-mobile is my carrier. I was able to root the phone and unlock it. The strange thing is that now that my T-mobile SIM card is in this AT&T phone, I am not getting 4g. I am only getting "E" coverage. I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432. Am I missing something? Is it firmware? Kernel? currently, kernel in phone is 2.6.35.7 with Gingerbread.UCKH7. I'm in the US, so if any of this info helps my cause please assist. Any advice/help/suggestions are welcome. Thanks XDA!

Your on E and you will continue to be on E. The AT&T phone dosent support 3G/4G Tmo bands.
You won't get anything faster than Edge with an att phone on T-Mobile. Hardware is the cause.

The exception would be some of their LTE phones reflashed with a T-Mobile radio. Pretty much Skyrocket and Note and that's it.
This is because AT&T uses 1700 MHz for LTE and T-Mo uses it for 3G, and other than the radio firmware the T989 and Skyrocket are almost identical.
Right now, with the exception of the above cases and the international unlocked Galaxy Nexus (which is pentaband HSPA) - only T-Mobile USA phones will get 3G on T-Mo USA. There may be a small handful of other exceptions, but very few non-Tmo devices support 1700 MHz.
Some research could've prevented this. Or just buy the phone made for T-Mobile.

Hi, guys! I want to know if I can use e970 in Bulgaria, Europe. Does someone have an experience with international usage of the device? I'm going to live there so I want to know if everything is going to work good or not. The carrier's frequencies are: 2G -900/1800 3g-2100 and as I know the e970 supports these ones. Thank you in advance!
