As far as I know, the international version doesn't.

Actually, it depends on what you expect 4g to mean, and which variant you are talking about, since you only specified "galaxy s2".
If you are talking about the variant this forum is for (i9100), and you're talking about HSPA+ (which admittedly isn't "true 4g" by original ITU standards, but is now considered as such, mostly for marketing purposes, in my opinion), then yes. If you're talking about LTE, then no.
There are other Galaxy S2 variants that DO support LTE, though.

My answer above still stands. It supports HSPA+, but not LTE. So it depends on what you mean by "4G".

ctomgee is right.
-Some countries refer to H+ as 4G, if that's your own case, the answer is YES. International version of Galaxy SII supports H+ perfectly fine.
-The standard 4G network in some countries is called LTE. If this is your own case, then the answer is NO. The international version of galaxy SII doesn't support LTE network.
Problem solved.

Galaxy s2 i9100T
What about the gs2 i9100T ?
I seen on youtube you can convert 3g to 4g?
What about 5g???

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S2 4.5"

I have a rather funny question. Is there a variant of the Samsung Galaxy s2 with the 4.5" screen unlocked and capable of either 3g or 4g at&t?
I can't find any information on this anywhere.
Thanks, if this is the wrong section, feel free to close.
The only ones are from T-Mobile, Sprint, and in Canada TELUS. T-Mobile and the TELUS variant are running qualcomm snapdragons

Can this model by unlocked for T-Mobile very easily like most Samsung Galaxy phones?

Probably, but it'd probably have crippled mobile data speeds since these two carriers use different frequencies for high speed data.

If its anything like the Skyrocket, which it is hardware wise then it could possibly have access to T-Mobile 3g with a modem flash. Let's hope so.

There's no guarantee... Have to look at the specs to find out bands on the phone.
EDIT: current specs that I found on gsmarena.com say that it DOESN'T get UMTS 1700mhz, which I believe is necessary for 3g/"4g" on T-mobile. So possible, yes, but with crippled data speeds.

lol, how do you think it gets LTE? 1700mhz. Like the Skyrocket, good try.
Like I said, we will have to wait and see if the s2 (t989) modem will work on it. Cross your fingers everyone.

Um, ok. LTE is now apparently the same as HSPA+ now. I didn't know that.

Lol, then how does the Skyrocket get T-Mobile 3g? Haha, sorry man.
I'm not here to argue just saying that because the hardware is similar it could work. But again, there is no guarantee this trick will work with the At&t Note

I'm trading my Galaxy Nexus for a int Note and trading that for an At&t Note, and I can't stand being on edge.

Why not keep the international note? It'll have T-Mobile 3g, and will have much more dev support than the ATT version. Seems like a no-brainer to me seeing as you'll have one in your trades.

Right now the international one does not have 1700 for T-Mobile 3g. Also the international one will never have LTE.
And look at the AT&T S2 and skyrocket. They both have good dev support.

No it won't. The At&t version is my best hope for 3g on T-Mobile

International does not get 3g on TMobile. There is a development bounty of $910 right now to try to get a dev to come with a work around. It shows 1700 but does not work.

That bounty will NEVER get paid. The 1700 is for GSM, which is for voice and data up to Edge. The phone doesn't have hardware to receive 1700 UMTS, which is needed for 3g/"4g" on T-mobile USA.

What do you mean 'when' it goes live?
It is very live already
And no it doesn't have an LTE or 4g radio.
But from what I've read there is a new version of the SGS 3 coming up the GT-I9305 which is international, GSM, quadcore, 2gb ram and LTE!
I don't know however how confirmed that is...

Soon there will be the GT-I9305 (Correct me if I'm wrong) and that will also have an LTE radio
I am really annoyed about samsung excluding this feature. I only got my S3 about a week or a week and a half ago just to find out the international version GT-i9300 does not support 4G. Now i wish i had waited another month or so...then again I did get a good offer from orange. The only good thing from orange that is !
Thaths for not doing research.
i love my girlfriend <3

Very important model question!

Hello.
I want to purchase a galaxy s2 from ebay, but under the model it says "GT-I9100LKADBT" and im afraid its not identical to the original i9100
I need your advice on this, help me decide so I can purchase it quietly with out being worried of purchasing a 'lower quality product'
thx.
Josef.
P.S
Under MPN it says GT-I9100LKADBT, wtf is MPN?
And under Network Technology it says EDGE, HSPA
I live in a country where we use GSM, Will it work?
The GT-I9100 is the international S2.

Have no idea, have you tried the right forum for your phone?
This is the International i9300 and i9305 forum
Maybe try the galaxy s3 Verizon or at&t forum
