Hi Everyone,
I'm planning to buy Xperia Z2 (D6503) but I couldn't find clear answers for below:
1. Is 4G sim card GSM or CDMA based service?
2. Are Xperia Z2 4G bands compatible with Verizon's bands in model (D6503)?the specs shows band 4 &13 is already included in D6503.
3.How can I get the APN for Xperia Z2 in order to activate 4G LTE?is it from Verizon or another source?
Big thanks in advance for the help and my apologies for bad English.

Thanks a lot for help, is there any compatibility issue that prevents Verizon from activating? or just Verizon being itself? I always have bad experience when it comes to their technical support.
Regards,
Its Verizon being Verizon. They won't activate anything not officially Verizon

Anyone out there rocking the XZU model: C6806 on AT&T? If you are, does yours shows that your getting LTE? I have the C6833, cause I thought this got LTE, but all I seem to get is H+
So, if your getting LTE, please let me know. Thank you for your time.
Yep, I'm on ATT with a C6806 and getting LTE. Had to switch to the ATT APN when I flashed CM, but yes, definitely getting LTE. And the 6833 doesn't get LTE for ATT, doesn't have the right band IIRC.
Yep LTE works great on the C6806. Was in LA the other day getting 30+mb down and 20+ up.

There are some locations in which the 6833 will get LTE but it's so not likely that it's not advertised as being compatible for AT&T. Even so, there were reports that some folks needed to have a recognized IMEI associated with their line of service to get LTE despite model and APN.

Hi Phaze1585,
When I had my Z Ultra LTE (C6806), I was getting LTE on AT&T. However, there are two things you need in order for this to work:
1. Band 17 support which the C6833 does not have. However, AT&T may support band 4 (which the C6833 does support) sometime in the future but don't know when. If you look on Wikipedia and search LTE bands, it says AT&T supports bands 4 and 17 but AT&T currently implements band 17 predominately. There are reports on this forum that the C6833 should work on T-Mobile's LTE since they are using band 4.
2. The SIM card needs to be activated or associated with an AT&T LTE phone. If it is an LTE phone but not "approved" (basically sold) by AT&T, you will only get HSPA+. Not related to Z Ultra but in lines with the point, I purchased my dad a Xperia ZL and activated a new SIM with AT&T (previous phone was a Moto Atrix 2, HSPA+ only). When I booted the phone, it only connected with HSPA+. When I inserted my SIM which at the time was associated with a Galaxy Note 2, I was able to get LTE on the Xperia ZL. Similar stories can be seen by searching on Google.
Hope this helps.
Any T-Mobile USA owner now there, can you please confirm that with an active T-Mobile SIM, can you do Wi-Fi calling on this Sony Z Ultra? If so, was the Z Ultra a Sony version, or GPE? Thanks!

Tmobile wifi calling working only with Tmobile certified phones., which is on sale in tmobile stores.
Xperia Z Ultra and Z Ultra GPE don't have that future.
If you have a choice buy Sony version of Z Ultra. Why ? There is many posts about it.
Regards
Well...
Here is the thing, I have a MetroPCS Alcatel OneTouch Firece, I unlocked it, put my T-Mobile SIM into it, and I was able to make Wi-Fi calls.
Obviously, this phone is not a T-Mobile certified phone, it does not have any T-Mobile software on it, and, when I am in-door with no cell signal, the phone shows MetroPCS, so what gives?

From what I can tell, there is no hardware for GSM support in that model, so this is not an option. Just because it has a SIM slot, does not mean it has the necessary antennas and such for other network support. Your best bet would be to use your phone as a hotspot or get a mobile hotspot if you are trying to use it without traditional wifi.
Hi everyone,
I'm quite interested in this phone. Does anyone know if the H860 Dual Sim phone supports both 4G and 3G simultaneously?
Both 4G on Sim 1 and 3G on Sim 2 at the same time, not 4G and 2G as in most other dual sim phones.
Thanks
4G and 2G

Hi,
Unfortunately 4G/2G or 2G/4G and there is on other option. As far as I know only Mi5 can work eg. 4G/3G or 3G/4G. I have got both of them so this info is true and confirmed.
Regards
Thanks to you both. That's really disappointing considering the phone has a Snapdragon 820 and other phones with this support 4G and 3G. Is there any custom Roms that support this functionality?

Are you sure? Can you check the network under sim 2 setting?

Unfortunately at the moment its not possible root LG H860N so you can not install alternative software. Even if, you still will have 4G/2G or 2G/4G because developer do not touch radio module. This a reason I want to get rid of it.
BTW The mobile is really good

Got a Sony Xperia XA Ultra F3216 Dual Sim on Tmobile USA network which limit me to 2G setting. Is there anything I can do to upgrade it to 3G or LTE so that my connectivity will be better? Bought this phone online and was not informed it was an International Version whereas I can not enable/disable APN settings for Tmobile because it was grayed out. My phone is already in Nougat. Anybody who can help or give some information will be highly appreciaited. thanks!

Hi, you can sell your phone and go buy a F3213. Sorry but it's not a joke, the F3216 have a bad compatibility with T-mobile network, look here to understand :
