Hi forum. I currently have Verizon service and am considering this phone. I asked a Verizon employee about using it on T-Mobile and she said it wouldn't work. Looking at frequencycheck.com I see the following supported bands:
Band LG V10 - VS990 LG V10 - H901
Band 8 - GSM 850 Yes Yes
Band 10 - E-GSM 900 Yes Yes
Band 13 - DCS 1800 Yes Yes
Band 14 - PCS 1900 Yes Yes
Band 1 - 2100 Yes Yes
Band 2 - 1900 PCS Yes Yes
Band 4 - AWS 1 Yes Yes
Band 5 - 850 Yes Yes
LTE Band 2 - 1900 PCS Yes Yes
LTE Band 3 - 1800 + Yes Yes
LTE Band 4 - AWS 1 Yes Yes
LTE Band 5 - 850 Yes Yes
LTE Band 7 - 2600 Yes Yes
LTE Band 12 - 700 ac Yes Yes
LTE Band 13 - 700 c Yes
LTE Band 20 - 800 DD Yes
I see that it supports the same bands as T-Mobile version ( model H901 ) and I understand that it is carrier unlocked so why wouldn't it work if I used a T-Mobile SIM ?

She lied.
It will work fine out of the box since VZW phones come factory unlocked. Just no VoLTE/Wifi calling obviously. Band 2/4/12 is what T-mobile uses for LTE so if you have those then you are set.

No offense to them, but I doubt the majority of in-store sales associates have knowledge of frequency bands between carriers. They are likely told to tell customers that the phones won't work if they just intend to take it to another carrier (but there is some truth to that, my old Verizon Galaxy S4 didn't get 4G or MMS on AT&T, but recent phones appear to be more uniform). But anyway, like you said, the frequencycheck list checks out. If it is indeed unlocked as you say, you should be good. Do be careful though. You're missing LTE Band 20, and I don't think it's for anything important (normal LTE operates on 2, 4 and 12), but I can't find any information on this band. And, of course, these lists are not always perfect.
Do you think the info from frequencycheck.com is not correct? Accounting the official specs for V10 from Verizon.com, it is only supports LTE Band 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 which is missing the most important Tmo's Band 12.
Of course Verizon is going to tell you that. It should work.
My verizon note 3 works on Tmobile. The v10 from VZW should work with Tmobile too.
T-Mobile V10 on Verizon?
Would then the T-Mobile V10 work on Verizon?
Pink is the new red.
It works. I am using my tmo sim in my vzw lgv10. It rarely get 4Glte tho. Mostly on H or H+.

Did you have to get it unlocked or did you just put your sim in?
The vzw v10 works on att and tmo. It does use up slightly more battery than normal, because it will always search for cdma first.

Good to know. Got mine and I'm debating on switching carriers and today's announcement pushes me a little more to do so. Just wanted to make sure it was possible before my return period was over. So far I love the phone. Just need to get used to carrying the beast.

It should work. I had a good 1/2 hour conversation with the local sales rep, in Fort Lauderdale. He said all the new Android phones are unlocked. We also discussed rooting. His phones are rooted. He said not to root until the Knox counter is not tripped.

Here is my story.
I am using Cricket wireless and bought a Verizon version LG 10 from Best Buy. It's a unlocked phone by default. This phone dose support LTE band 2, 4, 12 (Not sure 17) that compatible with ATT. But there is an issue when you use it in GSM/LTE mobile carrier.
By default the network type is set to "Global". This allows you to talk, text under GSM network (HSPA+, 3G), not in LTE network. If you switch the network type to "LTE/CDMA", you are able to connect to 4G LTE network, but you cannot talk or send text message.
Is there anyone who knows how to have voice, text with LTE network at the same time? Thanks

I have the same problem and cant seem to resolve it, were you able to get this fixed???
Its because i belive tmo uses a band that verizon doesnt to run its lte service I'm trying to trade. If root comes maybe someone will be able to assit damn verizon
yes it works with t-mobile, i am using verizon v10 on t-mobile right now, i disable most of verizon apps on the phone. also set up the apn for t-mobile in order to get data. the only annoying part left is that the phone tell you the sim is not from verizon everytime you restart, but that can easily swipe away just like any other notification.

Are you a new or existing virgin mobile user. If existing did you get a new SIM from Virgin? As they need to issue a new one to you if you want to go 4G.

There was also something else I read (virgin user here to - currently non 4G) about having to wait until your next billing cycle until you can begin using 4G services. Annoying and I've seen lots of people complaining as they have to wait to their refresh date which could be anywhere up to a few weeks.
Probably stating the obvious but have you selected the LTE option under (preferred network type) mobile network settings?
Sent from my Redmi Note 4 using Tapatalk
Yep LTE set as preferred
Also I ordered the sim before my last billing date. The sim turned up about a week after the billing date.
Maybe the next billing date?

Possibly yeah, that's the only thing I can think off. Worth it to keep trying the odd reboot or switching in and out of aeroplane mode in case that helps it kick in.

Check what LTE bands Virgin uses and see if the Redmi Note 4 is compatible with said bands. I'm on T-Mobile and the Note 4 does not support it's LTE.

They use EE's, who use bands *3(1800) and 7(2600), so definitely compatible.

Have u checked to use another provider?
i have a similar issue, not all providers that have these bands listed use them in all locations, i am with Rogers in canada who does have band 7, which this phone has, but they only have it in certain areas, not the full coverage, so i sit on 3g a lot.
Check this site, i shows that your provider also has limited coverage on the available bands. willmyphonework.net
I have the same issue. I'm with Three and it keeps dropping to H+ far too regularly.
Had this sim for a while and worked perfectly well on my Jiayu S3.

It happens to me. What I found from google, it said Note 4 Hardware supports Band 4 and Band 7, but the miui 8 locks them.
Still looking for a way to open those bands.

Band 7 should be supported and usable but I doubt the hardware supports band 4.
You should have gotten the Redmi Note 3 instead, the Chinese version supports band 4, 7 and 40 out of the bands used in Canada, and the Special Edition ("international version") supports bands 2, 4, 7 and 40. The Chinese model also supports 3G on band 4 (1700/AWS).

FIDO does not support band 7 too, (even though some sites said Fido supports band 7)
My friend is using Bell, his phone shows 4G instead of 3G.
I would like to know if Redmi Note 4 can be used with US carriers? I am moving there and was planning to buy a phone
Redmi Note 4 Supported Bands:
2G bands GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900 - SIM 1 & SIM 2
3G bands HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G bands LTE band 3(1800), 5(850), 40(2300)
US Supported Bands:
2G capabilities GSM 850, GSM 1900
3G capabilities UMTS 850, UMTS 1900, UMTS 1700, UMTS 2100
4G capabilities LTE 700, LTE 800, LTE 1700, LTE 1900, LTE 2100, LTE WCS 2300 (30), LTE 2500
Doesn't look like it but I wanted to know, since some users have claimed that they are able to use 3G despite the band being unsupported.
Get the ZTE Axon 7, Supports USA bands. I wish I did. To answer the original question. The note 4x works on at&t in the US, only one band. Band 5, sucks. So its not as fast as it could go but it at least works slow.
I have a Redmi Note 4X international edition and I'm running on the T-Mobile network. I'm in Utah. I couldn't give you the detailed channel info but you can always check the site http://willmyphonework.net/ it's a pretty good site to check phones against networks. That's what I did before I purchased my phone.

I'm using the Redmi Note 4 global edition on T-Mobile and I get LTE on band 4.
Sent from my Redmi Note 4 using Tapatalk
Where did you buy it?
Is the LTE just as good as any other phone or is it ****tier in some way?
I don't understand why more people don't use them here if they work just as good, since it's clearly the best phone out there under 200 bucks, as far as I can tell.
I ordered a global version, but I still don't have any confidence that it's gonna work based on what little information I can find on the internet.
I'm on T-mobile US, using a Redmi Note 4 Global, and I've had no issues with it. Good LTE speeds, but I can't get VoLTE to work though.
Screenshot of my speeds here: http://imgur.com/h7So6Sj
yeah, I've been looking at apps like LTE Discovery the last couple days, and it looks like there's plenty of Band 4 in town where I'm at, so I guess that's good. Usually the places I go when I go out of town have no lte anyway so I doubt I'll be missing much.
I don't mind not having VoLTE since I use like 10 minutes of voice calls a month and I don't think my current phone uses it anyway.
Hey everyone!
Currently a user of an RR rooted oneplus 3. Love the phone but I keep hearing good things about Xiaomi.
I must admit I'm curious, especially with the Mi Mix 2 coming out. How are Xiaomi phones on US cell networks? I would mainly be using AT & T. I have no problem putting custom roms etc on my phones so that's not an issue.
I just wouldnt want to be stuck with a phone that had bad 4G/LTE support.
Pros and cons of going with a Xiaomi phone vs say the one plus 5, or a true US supported phone like the LG V30 or upcoming pixel XL2 or even the asus zenphone 4 pro?
Curious to see what everyone has to say .

I'm using Redmi note 4 global Version in USA on T-Mobile. You just need to do a little research on what frequency at&t uses. Or what bands they use. For me I'm only getting 1 LTE band supported which is band 4. I get lte everywhere and it's fast. This is what at&t supports 17(700Mhz), Band 5(850Mhz), Band 2(1900Mhz), Band 4(1700/2100Mhz) currently. You can use this http://www.china-prices.com/phone/bands/7131/xiaomi-redmi-note-4-64gb to check compatibility with Chinese phones it's pretty accurate. So I just looked it up the global Version of Redmi note 4 you would get 2 LTE bands. Better than what I get. You can research other xiaomi phones as well.

Also switch service to mint sim for $25 a month with unlimited talk text and 10gb of data. Redmi note 4 global Version 3gb around $150 and the 4gb version around $200.
There are some xiaomi phones that support more bands but they do cost more. A unlocked phone in the USA you should be getting at least 3 LTE frequencies support. Like on T-Mobile there are 3 main bands. 2 4 and 12. 12 is for when your inside and it penetrates through buildings. At&t might have the same type of thing with 850mhz. Lower the frequency the farther it can travel.
Feel free to direct message me if you have more questions I've basically researched all available xiaomi phones. I can help you with compatibility
You don't have to worry about bands support, if it doesn't support bands on USA, You can unlock all bands on Mido, 1-41 bands can be unlocked

So basically as long as the soc's modem supports it then there are ways to unlock it. I am unfamiliar with Mido. What is that? I am going to be targeting a Snapdragon 835 phone here in the next month or two. Hopefully we will see on the 11th the mi mix 2 getting that Soc.

I'm not sure about the first line, but here on RN4 it can be unlocked with other version of RN4 who had All bands unlocked
Mido is code name for Redmi Note 4, every devices on Xiaomi have their own code name
I think yes it will be getting 835
I think it will be support for Mi Mix 2 on USA, i know someone who had mi6 basically had same soc, and he can used it in USA
Unlocking bands is not easy at all.. it's possible in theory, but it's extremely complicated and dangerous you can completely brick your phone.
Dont even consider this, i dont know what this guy above is talking about. Maybe he will present us unlocked all bands if this is so easy?

Make sure your sim is in Sim slot 1 which is the one that goes farthest inside phone that's the only one that works for LTE.
Looks like your carrier runs off the t mobile network. You have lte band 2 4 and 12. There are also multiple versions of redmi note 4. If you have redmi note 4 global version which runs the snapdragon processor you should be ok and getting LTE on band 4.
Also depending on what area you are in and the cell towers in your area you could be to far from LTE cell towers. Good luck
Go into sim apn settings there should be one already setup called fast t mobile. Because I'm pretty sure your on t mobile network you can select that and get LTE.

A good app from the play store is called LTE discovery it will tell you what band or frequency you are on I posted a couple screen shots on a different phone though running MIUI 8 but should be about the same. Also what plan are you on maybe you have used all your data? Also check with your carrier you might have to supply the IMEI number for them to activate it. Are you able to make calls?
Are you able to use the Sim in a different phone and LTE is fine?
Are you sure your not on redmi note 4x?

Does LTE actually continue to work for you after you make a voice call or when it otherwise switches to something other than LTE?
Because I'm on cricket as well and mine never goes back to LTE once it switches to H+. I've gotta go into preferred network and switch to to Prefer 3G and back to Prefer LTE to make it work again.
I've tried it with an AT&T prepaid sim as well. I've also done a factory reset, tried the nano sim in slot 2 and also in a micro sim adapter in slot 1. All with the same result. I've got good LTE signal on band 4 all over the place which works perfectly when it's connected. But if I make a phone call or walk into the center of home depot where the signal drops for even a second, it will go to H+ and literally never switch back.

oh OK. Im on 8.5.4.0. I should probably try 9, or Lineage soon.
I did actually witness this thing switch from H+ to LTE today, I couldn't believe my eyes. It was out in the middle of nowhere, and the LTE signal showed 1 bar, so apparently the H+ must have been even worse.
Guys H+ is fast too, I think it's like up to like 168mbps. Personally I have no problems with LTE but I prefer to use H+ because it's enough of speed for everything you could think of, obviously the signal is better then 4g and it's easier on battery.
Edit:
Actually it seems like H+ can be even faster then LTE.

Hi there I have a Redmi Note 4x International version Snapdragon, 3GB + 32GB). And I have this phone since 3 or 4 weeks. So far so good. But one (BIG) downside: I haven't been able to connect to 4g so far.
I know the a phone ain't capable of 800mhz 4g, but 1800mhz should be possible.
I am in Utrecht, Netherlands and my carrier, Vodafone should have 4G via 1800mhz here. 4G works instant on my broken Oneplus X.
Anyone ideas to help me out? Thanks in advance

There is no international version of Note 4x. This is asian variant and is missing some frequencies used in EU - for example B20. International version is Redmi Note 4 Global. (why didn't you get it instead?)
As for your question, from what i see majority of antennas used by Vodafone in NL uses 800MHz (B20) so maybe you are not in range of 1800MHz.
You can also try to setup your VPN's manually.

Thanks for your reply. I got this phone because in my region there should be plenty 1800mhz antennas from what I saw on the map on that very page you mentioned. Even in Amsterdam I had no 4G reception.
Check attached map from Vodafone site. If iPhone 5 has 4G mine should have it as well, right?

Tried it, no luck on band 5
No one?
Try to setup APN's again, manually.

No difference unfortunatly
You cannot return it anymore? I would just replace it with Global variant with B20.
On the other side do you really need LTE? H+ can be as fast and even faster than 4G (download), LTE has just much higher upload speeds.
