I have currently got a moto e xt1023, which has wcdma band 1900, I only get 2g signal, my country network 3g only supports wcdma 2100 since because of this I don't get 3G or H symbol and the internet is very slow,
after a lot of research I found that the modem in my phone doesn't have wcdma 2100 band, I did try using qpst and added wcdma 2100 to nvitem 2100.but still couldn't get the 3g activated.
so finally I tried flashing other moto e version modems, after successful flash I don't get any signal at all, when I checked the nv item in qpst I see only few items available.

Hello everyone.
- Anyone knows what GSM and UMTS frequencies are supported when Photon is used abroad in GSM networks? Will I get an EDGE speed or at least 3G speed?
I have 2 different SIM card from differenet countries with their own data plans. I just want to make sure this phone can accept and work with this SIM cards.
Thanks.
It'd on the box, our you can google it

I found 2 sources and they reports as follows:
First:
Network technology:
CDMA:800, 1900
GSM:850, 900, 1800, 1900
UMTS:850, 1900, 2100
Data:EDGE (UMTS:Yes HSPA:Yes WiMAX-4G:Yes)
Second:
WiMAX 2.5, WCDMA 850/1900/2100, CDMA 800/1900, GSM 850/900/1900, CDMA EV-DO Release A, EDGE Class 12, GPRS Class 12
To me data part is still confusing. 2nd source does not mention UMTS or HSPA. What I conclude is that this phone with a SIM card under GSM network can only support EDGE speed. Is it true?
Samsung have a services mode (not include nexus)
type *#2263# in the dialer
it will go to Band Selection
we can control the phone receive specific band
it may be useful when your carrier is using dual band
and select the phone receive the best band at some very bad signal area
but except samsung, any other have band selection
or can we develop one?
in original android
have a Testing mode (all android phone can enter this mode)
*#*#4636#*#*
Phone information->press menu button , then select radio band->show Set GSM/UMTS band
it have six option, and i tested them in my GS2
they select the band as below
Automatic = All band
EURO Band = WCDMA 2100 only
USA Band = WCDMA 1900 & 850 only
JAPAN Band = WCDMA 2100 only
AUS Band = WCDMA 2100 & 850 only
AUS2 Band = WCDMA 850 only
I want to set 900 only in my nexus, but i got no way to set it
in the source of this original android testing mode
can we edit it to lock the phone receive 850/900/1700/1900/2100 only
hi any other phone have band selection?
anyone know

BAND and Network selection in SGH i897
Hello Guys,
I am getting this (*#*#4636#*#*) option in my Samsung SGH i897 and able to select all the BANDS and Network Modes. After selecting several times WCDMA only with EURO BAND, its still picking EDGE (2G) Network. Dont really know what wrong i am doing or i dont know some perfect selection combination of BAND and Network.
Any suggestion please..
Thanks
Hi,
All Guys in Singapore specially pay heed
I bought this lovely phone to be able to enjoy quad core for one and LTE data access. It seems that when I try to connect to the 4G LTE on Starhub (in Singapore), I only get 4G, not the LTE speeds.
Please correct me if I am wrong, that the e970 has 1700 and 2100 band for the LTE, while Singapore only has 1800 and 2600 bands available.
Is there any possibility of enabling 1800 and 2600 bands?
The local variant is the E975, can I flash the stock e975 firmware to the e970 without adverse effects?

2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network LTE 700 MHz Class 17 / 1700 / 2100
You can use 2G, not sure what the 3g band is in Singapore.

My quick search shows Singapore uses 2100 for 3g, so the phone will support it. However, you cannot add or enable new frequencies. The hardware does not support them unfortunately. Your local LTE is not compatible with the E970

You can use 3G/HSPA+, I was there last week and I was getting 5-6 Mbps using SingTel prepaid.
EDIT- No LTE, sadly. But 3G was enough for anything I'd do on my phone.

HI,
yes the HSPAP works quite well. Im on the StarHub network, I also get a decent data rate. But LTE is LTE, it would have been nice to be able to coax the E970 somehow into those bands.

bad that and convert it to other frequencies cannot be
Hi guys,
I have a strange problem, I guess.
I bought my HTC Desire 610 on amazon. It is AT&T.
I use it in a different country with GSM sim. Everything seems to work fine. I am connected to 4G network if I am in 4G coverage zone. But when I dont, it won't switch to 3G, it just goes offline.
long story short: 4G seems to work, but 3G don't.
network mode is set to WCDMA/LTE Auto.
could anyone help?
I think this is something to do with the Rom, if you were to install the cyanogen mod or the slimkat Rom, 3g works just fine in both, idk why though

I Installed GSM signal monitoring application. As it turns out the phone only receives HSPA+ (3G) signal, but somehow thinks that it is 4G. Because 4G is displayed on top of screen. that is why I thought it was working on 4G network. but now I guess it works on 3G but thinks that it's 4G
now I want to enable 4G but have no idea how

Depending on what country you are in 4g probably won't work with an at&t phone as the different variants have different 4g bands unlocked in the radio firmware and probably antennas. See the following extract from desire 610 network specs. US 4g bands are quit different from those available in most regions.
NETWORK Technology
GSM / HSPA / LTE
2G bands GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 - all versions
3G bands HSDPA 850 / 900 / 2100 - EU, EMEA

4G bands LTE band 3(1800), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800) - EU, EMEA

Yes. I guess you are right.
So there is no way to fix this?

Its hard to say for sure. Try a ROM from the region your in or cm11 which is for all regions. This probably won't work but is worth a try. Otherwise to that you would have to go s_off with sunshine (costs $25) and flash changes to radio firmware( either someone's dump from a phone in the region your in) or modifying it (google "XDA qcom unlock radio bands) but either way it's very risky unless you really know what you doing you can easily end up with an expensive brick and it still depends on whether you phone is equipped with a suitable anttena for the frequency the band your carrier is using.
I have 2 Motorola Moto E (Verizon) Smartphones
I have unlocked them to work on GSM networks
The first one was able to get LTE (4G) Connection
The second one is stuck on EDGE (2G) Connection no matter what I do
*Both are connected on the same network with the same APN settings*
Please help me to make the second Moto E get LTE connection
Are you sure that the one that has LTE is really the Verizon model? Zain uses GSM 900, HSPA 2100, and LTE Band 3. The Verizon model does not have HSPA 2100 or LTE Band 3, as it only has the 3G and 4G bands used in North America. Does it have a Verizon logo on the back of the device?
If you bought it secondhand, the person you bought it from might have done this to enable LTE Band 3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e-2015/general/guide-enable-lte-bands-surnia-t3351673
