[Q] LTE Handset in UK - HTC One X+

Hi, am I right in thinking that the LTE version of the One X+ is American and the international version (The version I would get from the UK) does not support 4G?
If this is the case would buying an American One X+ (Unlocked) and buying a SIM only 4G contract in the UK work?
There are rumours of a UK HOX+ LTE but nothing confirmed and I'm really impatient!

The UK HOX+ is 3G only and buying a US HOX+ prob wont work as they will almost certainly use diffrend band frequencies.

Tbh I am torn between geting a LTE ready handset or just the HOX+ and im 99% sure im getting the X+ as 4g atm is crap in the uk and will be for at least 18 months plus. by that time new handsets will be out and better cpu's/modems etc etc

Same situation in Switzerland: no reason to buy LTE device right now, it will take at least 1 year (I guess even more) to build up the network at least in the big cities... not to talk from countryside

Buying SGSII in US, using in europe?

Hi everyone,
i have one short question.
I'm currently living in the US for the next few months and my HTC Desire keeps on rebooting and HTC won't repair it in the US, because it's an german vodafone branded version.
Anyways, i need a new phone.
If I buy the SGSII here in the US, will I be able to use it in Germany aswell?
Because currently I cannot use 3G with my Desire (carrier is t-mobile), only EDGE. It would be a real bummer if I couldn't use the SGSII to it's full extend (meaning 3G etc.) in Germany.
Thanks for your answers!
Th unlocked Europe version is compatible with both Europe and US 3g radios.
ya well, but i want to buy it in the US and use it in europe. Not the other way round.
I think that's what he meant.
Never live in the past but always learn from it.
Could just buy Europe version online.

That's what I meant... Plus there are a stores in the US that will sell it.
gs2 unlocked version is quadband 3g 850, 900, 1900, 2100mhz. i'm assuming german is 900mhz. so you can use 3g in anywhere except tmobile usa (1700mhz).

[Q] Will the international version include 4g lte?

As the title says, will the international One X+ include LTE?
I haven't been able to find this information anywhere.
It will, however it wouldn't be compatible with the LTE network being set up in the UK.
Is there not a UK specific one because i was hoping to get LTE on it :/ One of the main things about a new phone

As much as I'd love LTE here in Europe HTC haven't confirmed EU LTE support and the UK are still behind in LTE radios so it wouldn't really make a difference.
it will no be able to be used in the uk so will be just the 3g am afraid
I am not yet convinced that the international version will have LTE. The page expansys has up for pre-order is likely the international version and it doesn't list LTE.

From what I can see, it seems that there will be two versions of HTC One X+, both the same, just one of them is going to support 4G
My spider senses tells me that the first one coming out will be the one without LTE and an LTE version will be due on a later date.
What do you guys think? Even though it seems like the specs has been published, do you think the international LTE version will be a reality.
And on another note, I live in Denmark, not UK, but I guess we use the same 4G standard.

Yeah I agree with you here, LTE will come later, HTC seem to be in bed directly with individual carriers, and creating LTE devices as required for these people directly. Which is fine, but if they are going to create an international model, it would be good to be international.
HTC's model is very annoying and frustrating. Why don't they just make an international model that works internationally with all carriers and technologies like ALL other great phone manufacturers, then removes all the double guessing from everyone. To make it even more annoying, the spec just state that it has LTE, doesn't list bands or anything, and almost every phone website has conflicting specs for this phone, including here. I am in need of a new phone and am holding off because I am completely confused and unclear of the specs, here it states LTE, but which models? just AT&T???
If there was development for the j butterfly I would be buying one of these from Japan, the first truely international HTC device.

[Q] HOX+ & US T-mobile

Hi everybody,
The previous HOX was not supporting the 3G data on t-mobile due to lack of HSDPA 1700 as far as I realized. It seems that the same problem remains with the new HOX+ too since it cannot support HSDPA 1700.
Does anybody know something about it?
Thanks in advance

airportal.de (site works on laptops but not good on phones at least for me)
I think when T-mobile refarms the area you live in this might give you 3g for unlocked ATT phones and international versions also.

I hope it goes as you said in our region. I've seen an AT&T version of HOX+ which will support more Network frequencies as well as LTE. Would it really matter in my case? Should I go with the unlocked AT&T version or an international version?
I'm waiting until the dust settles on the refarming and on the next batch of nexus phones. Then the selections and used prices should really improve.

Now there is also a Telus HTC One X+.
Does anyone know if it will work on Wind Mobile in Canada?

[Q] Is there an international version of One X+ with LTE?

I am currently on vacation in the United Arab Emirates, and I would like to purchase the One X+ here. I live in the US and have service with AT&T. All the stores that I talk to here say that the version of the phone they carry has built-in LTE. According to wiki, however, it seems like only the at&t model has an LTE radio (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_One_X).
Do these stores know what they're talking about? They have working phone display models, but there isn't an LTE network in place here yet for me to verify whether the phone has it or not. Any other ways that I can check?
AW: [Q] Is there an international version of One X+ with LTE?
no LTE for International HOX+
The SOC one x have gpu at 520 mhz seem one x+ ???
Telus one?
no
Nope, there isn't. I live in the UK and the only LTE version of anything remotely similar to a One X+ LTE version is the One XL, it's the International version of the One X in America. There is no One X+ XL or anything. Besides, LTE is really not all that. HSDPA+ is good enough for me.

Lol, sounds like they want to just sell u a phone. If you're going to be gone for awhile then wait til u get home and maybe the new HTC M7 device will be out and maybe with tegra 4. No, USA and Telus version phones are only with LTE built in.

[Q] Do all HTC One's have the same radio frequencies?

I've been looking around for some good deals on a off contract HTC One. I'm currently on AT&T but I've noticed T-Mobile and Sprint HTC One's seem to be selling cheaper. I've read that all HTC One's have the same hardware including radios, but what about the LTE bands? Is there any difference between the carriers? And would I first have to unlock another carriers branded phone in order to get it to work on AT&T?

I'm pretty sure the T-Mobile One will work with AT&T's LTE network. Not sure if you need to unlock the AT&T or T-Mobile Ones to use on each other's networks. You can't use Sprint on anything but Sprint's network. Sprint uses CDMA and AT&T and T-Mobile are GSM networks.
You should get a T-Mobile version of the One, that is the best version to get. It will support both AT&T and T-Mobile LTE bands, plus regular AWS 4G on T-Mobile. You will need to have it SIM unlocked to use it with AT&T, eBay is where you can do it.
From where I am, socal, on CL everywhere, the AT&T version is always cheaper. T-Mobile version is harder to find and usually costs more.

Thanks for the answers. Good to know a T-Mobile phone will work should I purchase one.

Curious as well, can someone give solid proof of all bands? I wouldn't want to just fall back on word of mouth when purchasing a phone based on this info.
Thanks!
