[Q] Frequencies Supported on 5GHz WIFI - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Which frequencies does the S3 support on the 5GHz wireless band?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels#5.C2.A0GHz_.28802.11a.2Fh.2Fj.2Fn.29.5B14.5D
I have looked but couldn't find anything on the web.
Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Anybody? I could really use a reference to some document that has this mentioned...
Appreciating any help... :beer:

Well, 5GHz is a frequency, so I would guess that it supports 5GHz?

Thank you all guys for your answers... I was looking for a more technical answer TBH
No, 5GHz is a frequency range... obviously no body cared to look at my link in the first port...
Nevermind I thought this forum has technical experts from all fields related to mobile.
Appreciate your help.

I posted an image of what channels can be used on an international s3 at 5ghz. Look at your link and match the channels to frequencies not hard to do.

3G speeds on Simple Mobile

Hi. Is there any way to boost the 3g speed of simple mobile. My phone is not on their approved phones but I just tried copying the apn settings of another sgs2 but not I777. Thanks in advance

The i777 doesn't have the bands for Simple Mobile's 3g. I'm pretty sure you'll just be stuck with EDGE.

Our phone should be supported. I mean they have the international version ours should work on there faux 4g.
Are they a T-Mobile reseller or AT&T reseller? If TMo, no 3G for you.

WCDMA 850 / 1900 / 2100.. this is the spec for the radiio part supoporting your 3g/4g magic.. that 1900 is no good cause tombile is 1700... 100% non-compatible unless you get a world phone...
Mine is the AT&T one. Yeah, simple mobile said if it's not supported then it will only work with EDGE. I wish there's another way of 'tricking' the network that you have the band that they support.

So you think you should be able to trick the network into thinking you have hardware that you don't? For what purpose? I mean you still wouldn't have the physical hardware required.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777
That's why i'm asking if there's a way to trick the network. I mean like changing the baseband or changing roms to a hellraised rom from a i-9100 one.

LOL.
dude, you are trying to figure out a way to trick the network into seeing something THE PHONE DOESNT HAVE, which is HARDWARE to support the frequencies...
so lets throw some logic in this shall we?
EVEN if you could trick the network into thinking you had the hardware, your HARDWARE wouldnt be able to utilize the network speeds......so what would the purpose be?

What? Simple Mobile is a T Mobile virtual network operator reseller. They are in no way affiliated with AT&T or do they support AT&T frequencies. No wonder you're trying to "trick" the network into thinking its a different phone.

I'm just asking a question if it's possible to get 3G speeds. I'm new to the forums and still learning the aspects of my phone and the network. Too harsh..but thanks anyways.
It wasn't just a question, it was a seriously stupid question. Like asking if there's a pair of glasses you can wear that will make a Prius look like a Corvette. Sorry, but it just isn't possible. You can't spoof the network into thinking your phone has hardware it doesn't. Are you getting that yet?

Try different modem(baseband). Try few and you'll find best for you.

Get on a mobile network that this phone fully supports. What carrier are you on? This phone doesn't get better than edge on certain networks. (for example, T-mobile USA)

You should look for carriers who offer the fastest data network speed. I know here in holland, its vodafone. So perhaps you should switch carriers for faster speed. There isnt a other way to increase it.

From what I was able to find though, Mobily DOES use a frequency (WCDMA 2100) that this phone supports.
Did you get the phone brand new? Or used? Are you sure it's an i9100 model phone?

like someone already told you, you should try flashing a different modem (afaik, you can try any sgs2 modem you like, no matter which rom/kernel you are on).
here is a link for a thread with a collection of modems

Try 3G/4G Optimizer. You can tweak for max speed.

Now my Internet far better than before. I changed the network type to auto instead of gsm. I also did the tweaks. Also it is much faster when outside rather than at home or at work because of poor signals.

Question about 4g?

Ok I just posted as another thread in a complete wrong section so I'm sorry if this is also the wrong one. (I've never used the app before). my question is, is the telstra s2 4g the same as the s2 epic 4g touch? And if so where can I find roms and such for it? Thanks
Sent from my GT-I9210T using xda app-developers app
G'Day fellow Failstra user
The main difference lies in the model numbers. I'm using the Telstra variant 3G S2, which gives me the model i9100T, where yours is i9210. I don't know the Epic's model, but it will be different again.
I was wondering the same thing about the 4G ROMs, as I got offered one for the same price as it'll cost for repairing this one. So I'm considering the change, but it depends on the availability of ROMs for it.
Maybe look further in this General forum for the Australia thread and see if there is any info in there.
Sent from my GT-I9100T using xda app-developers app
Haha completely agree with the failstra. I it have them because they are the only network with coverage where I live :/... Otherwise Anaheim all the way .... But back to the subject, I have been reading around and from what I can tell the 4g is a completely different phone to the 3g because it has a different chipset.

I'm pretty sure this is correct. The Exynos processor from the Galaxy S II models isn't compatible with LTE networks. Even if it was, you might still have troubles because the networks are different so i wouldn't be surprised if the anntenas weren't different.
I feel sorry fit you because I'm having the same trouble atm with my Galaxy Tab 8.9

Did you follow the guide to unlocking your phone for use on other networks? If so did you add all the APN's for T-Mobile?
I highly doubt you will get LTE in T-Mobile unless you live in one of the 8 cities they're testing it out in which are:
Denver
Las Vegas
Kansas City
New Orleans
New York
San Diego
San Jose
Seattle
If you live in one of those cities then it is possible you could get LTE through T-Mobile if the VZW Note 2 has the correct radios that can work on T-Mobiles LTE bands.
My best advice is that you should post in the thread that has the instructions for unlocking for user on other networks. It depends on how you unlocked the phone to use it on other networks, what APN's you've added and if there are others that can/need to be added, and if your area has LTE or if it just has 3G or HSPA+.
Sorry for not being more helpful.

I am a little unsure if it would be ok to flash a VZW modem seeing as how that is a T-Mobile phone, that area is a littlr foggy to me. Really the best place to ask would be that thread, I am not trying to be rude at all. Just saying thats where the people who know the most about that check for questions. Kinda like you ask questions about roms in the specific rom thread.
Whenever you get an answer come back to this thread and update it, I have seen this question posted a few different times and have never seen the answer so if you would update it it would be very informative for me so maybe next time this pops up I can give a definite answer.

Thanks for clearing that up, at some point I got that turned around.
I would think that there is probably nothing you can really do in this situation..... There is a chance that flashing one of the new VZW radios and then resetting everything up for T-Mobile might make it better. I HIGHLY doubt it though.
The only other things I can thing that might help would be flashing a T-Mobile rom or T-Mobile radio instead of the VZW rom and radio. That could possibly brick your phone though or cause you to get absolutely no service whatsoever, I really wish that there was more info on this subject.
Whenever you get an answer from the other thread please either post it here or PM it to me so I will know next time how to help the people in your situation.

T-Mobile for me is every easy. What I did was first unlock it using CASUAL (thanks Adam) then I just flashed it with CleanRom ACE edition.
If I plan to stay with that network, I'd choose T-mobile as carrier and never had a problem with it. If you have WIFI issue, reflashing it with Verizon carrier will fix that also.
