Thunderbolt on tmobile - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can my thunderbolt be made to work on T-Mobile ?

If T-Mobile is gsm network then no. As the bolt isn't a global phone.

The only other option would be to flash it to Cricket but I ended up not doing that for my friend as you only get evdo speeds, not even 3G. Plus I heard mms doesn't work.

AT&T 4G support.

Hi
I have the Droid Razr unlocked and working on at&t 3G.
Since at&t is upgrading to 4G soon. Will it work on my phone.
Sent from my XT910 using XDA App
At&t LTE and Verizon LTE are incompatible so your answer is no.
Your only hope would be if somehow the GSM radios are enabled but I would not expect that to happen.

He seems to have non-US RAZR, judging from the signature.
OP, you will never get LTE on this phone, but HSPA+ AT&T has should work more than well.

I figures since the network selection only said 2G or 3G.
Thanks for your reply.
I still love it though. Coning from a bad week testing Nokia N9.

Epic fail.
LTE will possibly be achieved on INTL RAZR, by Moto or by us. And as far as I know, LTE is LTE, there shouldn't be any uncompatibilities between an operator or another, but I can be wrong on that.
It should be like saying ATT's HSPA+ is different from H3G ITA's HSPA+.....
Coming from some examinations, the LTE capability is enabled in the INTL RAZR radio (CDMA is disabled). It's only a RIL problem.
Ah, I missed your sig. Disregard my answer.
In the US the RAZR will not be compatible with At&t. Different LTE frequencies as well as CDMA vs. GSM.

This explains the frequency differences between the two networks.

this is pathetic. not once in over 4 or 5 years with US Cellular did I have issues. Now, 4 weeks in with Verizon, I have had 2 data outages. wtf? So much for the most reliable network....
3G is working here in KS. 4G is still down last time I tried it though (10min ago).
No 3g/4g here in Phoenix either. wtf? Had this phone 2 1/2 weeks and this the 3rd outage.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using XDA App
Still out in Pittsburgh this is the second time I asked the rep if we were getting credit for the outage she said once they get it up then they will figure out what they will do for us
3G back up but flakey, 4G still down in MD
For 4G phones, 3G is back up but flakey going form 3G to 1x and back to 3G and 4G is still down here in MD.
I don't have anything still...no 3g no 4g no nothin. And I'm gettin' pissed....enough of this crap already. Get it figured out
Had 3g back but out now verizon claims to be the most dependable 4g network they must think they're the only 4g network to claim most dependable

3G and 4G in and out here in central Arkansas. 3G keeps dropping to 1x and I have full bars service.

How can i use a Verizon droid razr on At&t

was wondering if this could be possible cause i was reading the forums and found someone that did it by flashing the ap to the verizon razr if you could help me out that would be great thanks
It's not possible. Verizon uses CDMA, EVDO and LTE. AT&T uses GSM and UMTS. Completely different technologies. However, if you can get an XT910, a GSM version of the RAZR, you can use it on AT&T (this is what I have).

im actually looking into this because my cousin has just left Verizon for att and it is possible they use sim cards and people have reported it working im not sure on many details of it yet but its out there just google "verizon droid razr on at&t"
look here http://blog.laptopmag.com/ics-world-phone-capabilities-come-to-verizons-droid-razr-and-razr-maxx
You cannot do that after the ICS update. With ICS, you can roam onto global GSM networks but many people have reported that you cannot change the default network from Verizon.
From everything I've heard the xt912 has the appropriate radios to connect with at&t cell towers but the usage of this feature is being blocked by vzw. Now I don't know if a custom rom like cm9 would allow for this or not.

Try going to the dial pad. *#*#4636#*#* you should be able to set your radio to gsm

I believe the open is talking about using an at&t sim card on an at&t plan, not just roaming on their bandwidth

There are people working on it but it's not yet possible.
RAZR on AT&T network
Yes it is possible. I did it. The only thing is that I only use the phone for calls and texts and WiFi for data. In the bionic forum, they tell you to download Radiocomm. I did not do that. AlI did was just change the setting to gsm/utms network and placed the AT&T sim card and waited for 15-30 minutes for the phone to connect
Btw, I'm on ics.
Well,I tried to attach pic but admin won't let me

Droid RAZR XT910....

I have the XT910 version of the RAZR and was wondering. What does it mean?
Can I use it on TMOBILE?
Sent from my XT910 using XDA
pretty much yes.
the xt910 is the gsm version of the razr.
it only gets 3g on at&t frequencies.
so you'll be stuck on edge unless t-mobile refarms 3g in your area (you also may need to cut your sim as the razr uses a micro sim, the only difference that i know of is size)
I put NY Sim in but it still said, no Sim. Ima go get an official one. So I wont be able to use tmobiles 3g or 4g?

The Droid Razr XT910 only has 3G and HSDPA (evolved 3G or "fake" 4G) so no LTE no matter what your carrier supplies.
I dont want lte. But will it work on tmobiles 3g or 4g? And does it automatically means its "unlocked"

The Droid Razrs from verizon will be unlocked for gsm global use within next ICS update. Some users in sone versions of the leaked ics are reporting its fully working thought gsm networks.
Hope this is the info you're looking for.
Cheers

Kinda but thanks for the reply. I already have a GSM version of the RAZR, NOT the Verizon branded version. So shouldn't my phone work with Tmobile out the box and also even on GB 2.3.6
Which is what it came wit. I cant even install Verizon roms on mines w/o the gsm patch I guess

It will work on T-Mobile's 1X network, EDGE. You cannot get 3G unless you are using AT&T in the US because the XT910 doesn't support T-Mobile's LTE, HSPA, or 3G frequencies.

Oh! I see. Read the above post from [TSON] its an accurate information.
BTW. It's 'Droid Razr XT910' in OP but all 'Droid' phones are from verizon. Your's are Motorola Razr XT910. This may be usefull for future reference.

About roaming on a Verizon tower with page plus

Hello this is my first post using my Droid RAZR. I got it on page plus this morning and everything works but it all ways says in roaming and no service even tho I can call and text and use data too. Is there anything I can do? Thanks and I am loving my RAZR !

Any one?
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I would guess that something got messed up when the phone was flashed/programmed for pageplus. Try flashing it again.
Well would it be in the Dfs software or cdma workshop ? Also my phone says when. I call *228 to update roaming it says your phone has been activated and your so is updating your roaming. So my pho.e works to call and data, text so nothing worth there
