Anyone in Canada using LG v30+ H930 DS?
Thinking to get one but the band support seems to be missing.
However, I saw another thread talking about using with t-mobile.

Specifying which provider you would be using it on would make it easier to give you a more accurate answer. It should work just fine but for some reason, people seem to be having issues on carriers such as T-Mobile USA.

That is your best chance for across the board compatibility because the Rogers network is also GSM compatible.

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 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

Hey guys! Soon I'll be buying a G2 outright. I'm on Telus in Canada and I'm just wondering if it really matters what variant I buy. I see a few different models available to buy unlocked and just wanna be sure there's no big difference for me which one I buy.
I suppose if they'll all work just fine, then I should go with the best dev supported model....if there is one.
Thanks for any input.

All the phones in Canada are the D803 version but I got mine through Wind Mobile which is the D801 and came factory unlocked.
Software versions between the 2 are different as well but I'm not sure what is different.
I'm not sure if there are any major differences between the Canadian models but things I saw through xda are that my D801 from Wind is missing the 3rd mic located by the flash. I haven't tried it yet, but I read that this affects the audio zoom function by rendering it barely recognizable and/or useless.
Also, not sure if you would care (but matters to me) is that I am unable to set my D801 LG G2 camera to mute without rooting and flashing another rom.
Thanks! So 803 may be best then. I see just about all the variants available. So maybe I'll focus on the 803.
I'm really hoping signal strength is better than my S2. I gotta go outside where I live to talk or text. Lol

Can anyone confirm that the LTE bands on the Rogers D803 are the same as Bellus?
I may go with a d802....at this point there seems to be more development for it. We'll see in a bit when I'm ready to buy if that changes or not. But seems there isn't much for the 803.

Yes they both use AWS for LTE (Bell and Rogers also have access to BRS 2600, but TELUS doesn't).
I'm using D802

Hello Im from Argentine.
I want to buy this phone, but what I read does not support 4G Argentine (Band 4 or 28)
need to have the band 4 (1700/2100)
thanks for the support
I read somewhere there are 3 versions and one of them supports band 4.
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Orig..._6&btsid=d7bfdf1b-2978-4ad7-a543-7b49bce90205
I ordered mine from here a few days ago and seller says it supports band 4.
Worst case there is a guide on xda to unlock all bands.
Apparently it does. Great news.

Apparently so for T-Mobile USA. Of course it should be set to 4G preferred also. I haven't tried it but click the link and try it yourself. I guess you need the 4G APN settings for your carrier of course.

I can only suggest you click on the link and sign up with your questions. I'm on T-Mobile so it's good news for me................. If it's true.
I insert the battery into the module then the module into the phone. I turn on my phone and I get a message that says, "Insert a compatible module to turn on your phone." What do I do?
I think the modules are region specific....I'm sure that's what I've read.

There is such thing as import, so it doesn't matter where you got it, also there is two version available, I think it's listed in LG site about compatibility to which carrier.

If you have an ATT G5 you will need an ATT specific camera module for your phone. All other camera modules from the different carriers will not work. I know from experience.
But why is that? That isn't even logical...

That's what happens when consumers are at the hands of the carrier's plans and policies. We are stuck to that carrier's specific branding. Namely ATT and Verizon.
Yep, found out the hard way too. The ATT is the 720, and all others are the 700 model. Makes no sense at all.
