could anyone please post some good links to good info on us s2 availability or even if possible the best way to obtain one from over seas and use it in us on tmob. just some links would be great if anybody has a few. thanks for your time, veritasequita
It doesn't work on T-Mobile. Voice would be fine, but data would be GRPS.
Will it work on any US carrier? AT&T?

Yes, it works with AT-T for 3G and fake "4G"

I bought mine from expansys USA www.expansys-usa.com. the phone was $750, and as others told me when I was trying to decide, its covered by warranty and unlocked and unbranded. I would say they're the best so far. A lot of people have done Handtec and Clove as well.

Can someone explain why this phone doesn't work on T-Mobile? Does it not use HSPA+? Also, if it only works on AT&T in the US, why not just wait a month for AT&T to subsidize it with a contract?...
T-Mobile USA's 3G uses the 1700/2100 MHz band. The currently available versions of the SGS2 don't support that band.
I am wondering if the unlocked Titan will work with Tmobile 3G in US ? Anyone tried it or knows if it works or not ?

Yes, 2G is just fine.
If you happen to live in one of the very few markets that TMO has migrated to 1900 MHz HSPA+ coverage, then 3G/4G will work. This is an incredibly small part of the country today however, so I couldn't count on it.
Always check radio band. Make sure if you want tmobile 3G its 1700/2100 go to gsmarena.com and check phone specs. AT&T 4g is 1900/2100. Correct me if im wrong just trying to be helpful.
I agree. 2G works. Just like gamscan said, also hearing that data roaming with AT&T is going to be available in certain markets starting this summer.
Wonder if the TITAN 2 works with tmobile 3G ?

Why not just use Straight Talk and use 4G on the Titan II? Unless you have a contract with T-mo.

I know the specs show that it has AT&T LTE bands, but had anybody actually used it on AT&T LTE yet? If so, please report your impressions.
Thanks.

I'm confused why so many people are worried about unlocking and band compatibility. Get the one from your own carrier !

Works exactly the same for me using an AT&T SIM in the T-Mobile HTC one. The other way around, I get less HSPA+ service using an AT&T SIM in a T-Mobile HTC One.

No. The AT&T one doesn't fully support T-Mobile while the T-Mobile one fully supports BOTH T-Mobile and AT&T.
For people who don't want CDMA-based service, the T-Mobile version is the best one to buy for compatibility.

Are you sure about that, Maybe the AT&T version needs to be unlocked for it to work on T-Mobile's HSPA+ Network. I hope like hell it does because I would like to have the 64gb version working on my Network of choice, T-Mobile of course.

This has been discussed to death on the boards.
All the phones have the same internal radio hardware but what's been flashed to each device is different.
i got a att version unlock, big mistake for tmobile. i flashed tmobile rom and radio. alot of places in new york i get 2G which it was constant 4G with my note 2. Place where i get 4G i only get 7mbps. while with my note 2 i was able to get up to 18mbps. Order the tmobile version will return this one. The only reason i bought this is because they had it locally in ATT store while tmobile htc one is on backorder and not avail in any store.
Unfortunately Samsung doesn't just make the same model for both I would imagine it would save them money also but att phones work slow on T-Mobile but other way around your golden

Its against XDA rules to post in the wrong area. I suppose I could just start reporting the threads to the mods but they have better things to do. Telling people to post in the proper forum might actually get the point across without adding work for the mods.

Did you ask a question? It would appear this belongs in the Question and Answer forum.
Anyway, the T-Mobile One supports every band at&t does plus AWS. Unlocked and with the right APN, it will work flawlessly on at&t - in fact the T-Mobile software has almost no lag compared to at&t.
There's your answer.

that wasn't so hard. all the debacle could have easily been avoided if you shared the answer 2 days ago then offered the tip of using the search function next time. i'm not arguing just observing the inefficiency of the method you choose to address this post...
I have an unlocked T-Mobile HTC One, and it works perfect with AT&T SIM. I can get both LTE and HSPA+. That actually makes T-Mobile version a much better buy since I'm getting ALL the bands for both carriers, much less bloatware, and WiFi calling when using T-Mobile SIM.
Couldn't be happier.

Would you mind listing your APN settings? I have tried tons of different settings and cannot get LTE to work. I'm in Springfield, Mo. and it just rolled out a week ago. My HTC One is non-rooted and T-Mobile branded.

Thanks for the tip on that app. It still didn't fix the problem, but I figured out what my problem was. I was only able to get up to HSPA+ speeds since the APN settings for LTE would not work. When I put the LTE APN settings in, it would say there was a data connection issue and the settings were not correct.
After doing some additional research, I found that since the IMEI of the T-Mobile version is not in AT&T's database of LTE capable phones, my data provisioning on my account was locked in at only receiving HSPA+ speeds. My last phone was a T-Mobile HTC One S, which wasn't LTE capable, so it made no difference what the data provisioning was on my account. To make a long story short, I took my wife's HTC One X that she was not using any longer and had the AT&T phone rep put that phone on my account since it's capable of LTE and the IMEI is obviously in their catalog of devices.
After that, the settings worked immediately for my HTC One.
The more and more I look for help from AT&T, the more I realize that the company doesn't have many employees that are skilled in the way of assisting outside devices. Since T-Mobile welcomes customers to bring their AT&T devices to their network, I can only assume they would have figured this out a whole lot quicker.

Their policy on this seems to be very arbitrary. I purchased mine at Wal-Mart and paid outright for it, and then submitted the necessary info immediately to their SIM Unlock department. Here's the response I received from them a week later:
T-Mobile Sim Unlock Request
Sim Unlock Reference: ---------
IMEI: 35597205-------
Thank you for taking the time to contact T-Mobile. We have received your SIM Unlock Request. Unfortunately, we are unable to process your request at this time. The account must meet the following criteria:
1. 60 days of active usage on device
2. Must have $50.01 or more in accumulative refills since activation.
Please submit a new SIM Unlock Request once the subscriber has met the Eligibility criteria.
Thank You,
Sim Unlock Department
T-Mobile USA, Inc.
I went ahead and just used the eBay seller that veliksam suggested in the Q&A section.
I called T-Mobile after I posted and tried again, I should have my code tomorrow

How did you get it unlocked? You would have to wait 40 days to unlock it by T-Mobile. Did you find a site that can get it unlocked? I heard that most of the sites don't have the codes yet for T-Mobile version of HTC One.
Sorry if this has been asked but will this phone work on T-Mobile's network? Like get 3G/4G? Or will it be stuck on edge/GPRS? Thinking about buying it but want to make sure it'll work before I do. Thanks in advance.

What out lte? Nigri electronics mentions lte bands in the specs but all the reviewers so far have said no lte. I really want to import one and definitely will if it can work with all T-Mobile frequencies.
