Hey guys,
Is the Bell version of the galaxy s3 the same as the at&t version? If there then this might be interesting on Bell's page it least's AWS as network compatibly.
Here's the link:http://www.bell.ca/Mobility/Products/Samsung-Galaxy-S3/Specifications.tab
If it lists AWS out of the box then it probably is not the same.

I am looking to buy a second hand SGSII. In trying to confirm the data bands for me the box seems to only list 900/1900/2100. The model shows GT-i9100. I need 850 for ATT in he states. I could not confirm on Google if this should be quad-band. Anyone have any idea? Thanks.

The I9100 (at least the versions I've seen) support the 850 MHz band -- I've using an EU version on AT&T for 3 weeks.
Will confirm that. Got mine on release from handtec. Works on 850mhz here in AUS on telstra

Hi, I am debating on buying the international galaxy s3 or T-mobile's galaxy s3 (the dual-core model). Since I am from the US, would I be able to use T-mobile's 4g if i bought the international version?
No. Hardware differences.
This has been asked countless times before.

If you live in some parts of California or the east coast that have 1900mhz 3G it will work. But that only covers like ten cities max. It would be 2G everywhere else.
Also T-Mobile doesn't have 4G.

Hey!
No its not international I'm leaving in UAE and I'm using Du cariouer and its not supporting 4g so it depends on the operator
Hi there.
I would like to ask wether the internationl/UK '3G' version of the Galaxy S3 (GT-i9300 i think) is compatible with the newer DC-HSPA+ (or DC-HSDPA+) band standard?
Please advice. Thanks.
What "new" standard?
What country are you in? What carrier?
I get HSPA and HSPA+ on my gt-i9300

DC-HSPA+. Double speed compared to regular HSPA+ at the same MIMO settings.

DC-HSPA is only compatible with the LTE version of the international model, (I9305) the I9300 is not compatible.
I'm with T-mobile UK with a "standard" Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300) model.
I heard Three UK's DC-HSDPA is twice better than that of T-mobile's or Orange's and (in my opinion) could be a cheaper/better bridge towards a future LTE handset upgrade.
WOuld you agree?
Shall i get the S3 LTE (GT-I9305) which is DC-HSDPA enabled on a contract or get the latest S4 bearing in mind Samsung has a habit of releasing "updated" versions of their Galaxy S phones mid-life.
Anyone know the difference between the canadian version of the galaxy mega i527m and the US AT&T version i527. Honestly I am new to android and wanted to buy one of these phones. Being a noob I assumed there was only one north american version. I am canadian so I ended up buying one from a ebay seller in canada, who's auction shows what looks to be a canadian device according to the photos of the box and model number, so I ended up buying it and am currently waiting for its arrival, but then soon after I bought it, I read on here about someone who bought one from the same ebay seller and received a brand new unlocked AT&T version. So if this ends up being the case for me as well, will the AT&T version work the same for me on my canadian carrier Telus? Will I be able to use the Telus LTE network for data? What other differences would their be?
Thanks in advance
The m version has the extra 1700mhz lte band in order to make it compatible with robelus' lte network. I don't think that you will get lte with the sgh-i527 version.
I almost did the same thing as you until I figured it out. So, I bought it locally in canada instead.

Hello guys. Apparently the SM-G850A cannot be rooted (I want to install Xposed) so I am thinking of getting an unlocked SM-G850F. But I cannot confirm if SM-G850F will work with AT&T? And not sure if there are any other differences between the SM-G850F and the SM-G850A?
Won't get LTE on AT&T.

Dang! Thanks. Do you know if any of the other variants will work with AT&T LTE? The other variants can be rooted.
Only the A version, which cannot yet be rooted.
Sent from my D5803
Obviously the 850 A will work on AT&T and it
looks like the 850 M might but triple check because I have heard that Exynos do not get LTE in USA / Canada.
Your other best possibility for ATT is the
Alpha SM G 850 W8 this is a Qualcomm Version used
by Canada Bell which.seems to have all the Bands
for AT&T and TMobile USA .
Don't know about rooting.
I found a SM-G850A Which was rooted for ssome reasons
Idk how to do it but all I know that it's possible?
With one way or another
