i currently using the $5.99 T-zone on my XPERIA S, i get HSDPA around 5Mbps download and i can tether with no limit... my monthly data usage is around 30GB.
if i get the XPERIA Z Ultra C6806 that have LTE band 4 will i able to get LTE on it using t-zone??
i tried using my current sim on my friends nexus 5, i get LTE signal but everytime i try to connect to internet it brings me to a sign in page on tmobile online, i try to sign in but the page take forever to load
the APN in the nexus 5 is already using "fast.tmobile"
i wonder will i get this problem if i get the C6806??
i juz want unlimited internet with unlimited tether while using tzone
anyone using tzone with Z ultra LTE in USA??
anyone??
It should work as long as you can specify Proxy in the APN, and you can. I really wish I had kept my $5.99 data. It was slow but usable. They still honor it.

I'd chat with a T-Mo technical support CSR about this, whilst absent mindedly telling them that your phone is the Xperia Z, (not Ultra) which they sell, and so must support.

Hi
i just shipped over a Verzon Droid DNA to Singapore. Everything works up till HSPA+. But i am unable to obtain any 4G reception. The bands are supported here in Singapore. I suspect it is locked by Verizon, so is there any way to use 4G here?. Will rooting, radio, or app solve my problem? Please help as i am desperate here
Thanks so very much!
I havent been getting lte at all since the first day i bought my xperia z. Not even once. I just think its the poor lte coverage of starhub in my case.
Sent from my Xperia Z
LTE is supposed to work actually. They have both 1900 and 2600 bands here. Unless it is somehow carrier-locked. Is your Xperia Z an import or local set? Cus a local Note 2 LTE has 4G connectivity almost anywhere.
Local. But i havent even got lte for once. I asked around xz starhub user on the forum, one of them said he only got lte in some places like tampines, changi..

Ok.Seems pretty strange as i get 4G on my Note 2 almost anywhere.
But just wanna confirm with the users here if my issue is due to Verizon locking the 4G or due to the reception in my area. At least that way, i can do something about it as i am lost right now.
Isn't 4g mediated by SIM?

Meaning those who are still using the 12gb plan can never get 4g?

Bought it on release from Negri Electronics in Las Vegas.
Have been using it on AT&T in San Jose/San Francisco. 3G works really well, even on Caltrain which was always a nightmare before.
No issues with calls or data service on the C6802 for me. And updates are coming through fine, I installed 526 last night.

I assume u do not have lte though ?
No LTE, that would would be why I am using 3G
I am using on AT&T as well. Works fine on 3g. Purchased from Negri. I live in South Florida.

I am also living in the San Jose area with this phone, specifically the c6802, the 3G HSPA+ is pretty much flawless, pretty quick, I wouldn't really upgrade to the LTE personally to trade off that extra battery life I am getting, great phone. AT&T is my carrier.
I bought my 6802 from ATGSM.Inc in NYC on release. I'm using it on At&t in Atlanta and it works flawlessly. I plan on buying the 4G model on release.

How's the sound of the earpiece? Are phone calls loud and clear, unlike the Xperia ZL?
I am going to wait till att releases the version that supports LTE band..
I have the C6802 version on ATT in Houston, TX....
What are you all using for APN settings? My phone's data doesn't work out of the box. I guess I have to mess with the APN settings? Did anyone else have to?
Call quality is perfectly fine, the device is large so you won't be using it too often I think, once you know where the sweetspot is to place it on your ear it is completely fine.

I ran the auto-network setup and the APN was configured correctly right away.
Settings -> [wireless & Networks] more -> Internet Settings -> ATT
That was it.
Getting 13Mbps down, 1.1Mbps up, 68ms ping according to speediest.net
Easiest phone setup ever for me.
Very very easy to setup. Exactly like what you said. Just put in your sim card (Phone off). Turn it on and go to setting and download the Internet setting. Works fantastic for me. Getting 22down 41 ping. On AT&T.

It wont ever happen or highly doubt it my buddy works for at&t corporate he said itl be only available thru sony first then maybe t-mobile I called sony aswell and looked into it found some links and yup if it came to any carrier Itd be t-mobile but thatl take time sony will have it sometime this month or next no exact date thats what sony said and itl be the LTE US version unlocked finally we always get stuff last...so technically itl be ready for any carrier but I think will work best on t-mobile or what ever other pre paid carriers use there satellites or what not

I'm using this with AT&T outside of Portland Oregon. The data connectivity is just fine on H+. Call quality is good and no issues to report. Many folks state that the audio is muffled or distorted due to the membrane in place for waterproofing but I can't confirm that in my own experiences. Crystal clear here.

For the members running this phone on T-Mobile US. I was wondering what the maximum data speed you've been getting on it.
It varies from place to place. But most of the time I get good speeds to browse and watch YouTube videos. Don't know exactly what the speeds are.

yup. brand new razr maxx's ( unlocked GSM VERSION!), are going for 225 NEW on ebay now!
I got mine back in april used for 260! Ahh technology prices drop so quickly!
Is there particular carrier he is interested in?
It is quite trivial to put Razr on Page Plus cellular which uses Verizon Prepaid network (VERY similar in coverage to Post Paid, but without roaming)
Straight Talk and Wifi Hotspot
If you do use on Straight Talk does the hot spot work if you've already rooted the phone and done the entitlement check?
Does anyone know if there is a way to allow internet while on a call. You have got to be kidding! What is this the stone age. Who does that anymore?!

No Sprint 4G device is able to do this unfortunately.
If u r on 2g or edge, data gets disconnected while on call. It doesn't happen if u r on 3g or 4g.

If you have any of the Sprint spark enabled phones you lose data connection ( 2g, 3g, 4g) while on a call, unless you're connected to wifi.
I noticed this too. Back on the S3 you could do both but now you can't.

The S3, EVO LTE, and S4(pre spark) could do it fine because they had 2 radios. They were sold around the time AT&T and T-Mobile were marketing the ability to do Talk and Data at the same time.
Since that time has passed, the new Spark Phones will not be able to do Talk and Data until VoLTE is enabled.. Yay!
It is a step back so I will be keeping my EVO LTE around incase I need the ability more often then not. :/

im missing my S3 due to this
I don't think this is a Sprint specific thing. My work iPhone 5 (On Verizon) does the same thing.. as others have said there is only 1 radio.. probably cost savings/power savings is why they are doing it.
It is a CDMA thing. The Radio cannot do Data and Voice at the same time on the same radio. GSM is completely different technology so it doesn't have this limitation.
On the Sprint/Verizon phones that could do this, they either had separate 3G/4G modems, or Duel 3G and a 4G modem. It didn't help Battery life when more than one is in use, but it did get around the problem of data while on voice quite well.
No Spark Sprint Devices have this however. They all have only 1 radio at the moment so until VoLTE is turned on, No Voice and Data.
All you've gotta do is switch to T-Mobile. I've got talk text and internet all the same time.

That feature only works on AT&T network.
It's not actually a CDMA thing only. It's has to deal with the chipset. Even T-Mobile and AT&T you'll lose LTE while on call as manufacturers have consolidated the radios.
Yeah i lose data when I make a call on sprint. But with my t-mobile, it just drops to 3g (hspa) which is faster than sprints 4g anyways...

Well I live in Philadelphia where Sprint here claims VoLTE already is available here and I still cant be on a call and use the internet at the same time. Sucks when my Note 3 did it with no problem. Love this phone alot. Now its a struggle to whether I get a Note 4 or Lg g3 stylus!
