How did you get the SM-G973F/DS in USA?! I'm in the same boat, but thought they were internationally region locked, did you have someone make a call in the country you got it from to work properly? Where did you buy it from?

Its the F variant right? In his posting it states:
Chipset Exynos 9820 Octa (8 nm) - EMEA
Qualcomm SDM855 Snapdragon 855 (7 nm) - USA/LATAM, China
He did ship you the Exynos without region lock?

you're right, it should work on AT&T, only the LTE band 30 is missing here but it'll work and that's pretty much it if someone tries to use it on other carriers, like Tmo etc...

Where do you see the LTE Band coverage? I've clicked on that link and there's no information on LTE Bands.. might be because I'm viewing it on mobile. Are you stating that the G975 F/DS does not support band 12/66 like every eBay seller claims it does?

Damn, I'd be curious to see how this information was amassed.. either way, I'm hoping that the Exynos version that I'm getting is the UK version.. it's coming from a seller in Miami so I'm gonna say it's not lol - most likely from South East Asia.

i answered this in a locked thread. international SGS3 on T-Mo USA will only get you Edge speeds. so the answer to your question is no, it is not compatible with HSPA+.

3G (HSPA+ 21Mbps): 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100MHz
4G (HSPA+ 42Mbps): 1700/2100
LTE: 700/1700
in other words, you'd get Edge if you used an international version on Wind/Mobilicity. this would be the same as if i imported an international version and used it on T-Mobile US.
Wind/Mobilicity/Videotron = T-Mobile US (same bands)
Telus/Bell/Rogers/etc = ATT (same bands)

GSMArena shows that the SM-G850M model of the Galaxy Alpha has LTE bands 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), and 17(700). Can anyone confirm that this is true?
I haven't opened it up. I don't know for sure. But those are atts Bands and I get lte
All models have different BAND support for example 850F has cat 6 LTE and 850FQ has cat 4 so be confirmed ONLY if someone with the exact same model approves this.

That is how they are listed.
I am on Metro PCS ( Tmobile Towers )South Florida and I see Band 4 when on LTE on Service Menu.
On WCDMA I see 1900 AND 1700 ( WCDMA 1700 not listed in most specs by Samsung but is there).

It's so difficult to get accurate (and consistent) info, so thanks for your efforts to update the compatibility listing. For example, I read elsewhere that the 870DS supported LTE 17 and 2 but not 5. But just above, Adrift98 reports the opposite. Makes it difficult to pick up an AT&T compatible G6 with 64 GB storage. So it makes me want to skip the G6 altogether.
Band 17 is the main LTE band for AT&T, so I am sure it is compatible. At least, I hope so.

Band 12 covers band 17. That's why newer AT&T phones list band 12 instead of band 17.
I'm on AT&T (Cricket to be specific) here in Ohio, and I do not get band 17 (or any LTE for that matter) on the H870DS. Confirmed with LTE Discovery, and tested with a phone that does get LTE. I've only seen LTE briefly on the H870DS in a large town, and that was likely band 5. Lack of LTE on AT&T for the H870DS was also confirmed by another user living in California.
I've been researching 3 models. All the info I have is directly from LG's website. I really wanted to go with the H870DS to have 64GB and Dual Sim slots but it's missing LTE bands 2 and 66 which T-Mobile does use in some places. US997 is missing 66 so I'm just going to go with T-Mobile's version. Any idea why the T-Mobile version is the only one to list the bands separately as "roaming bands"? Hopefully it'll still function fine if I choose to use it elsewhere.

I can't find a for sure answer about this, but dual sim is make or break for me. In interested in the current bogo T-Mobile is offering. We use the kickback feature on lines in our dual sim phones and only use the data on the free lines we have so we get $10/mo back using a dual sim phone.

T-Mobile USA sells the regular V30+, not the DS dual SIM model.
The only dual SIM LG V30/V30+ is the H930DS (which is a V30+).
No North American carrier has the dual SIM model. Even the open market LG US998 V30+ is not dual SIM.
I assumed you meant you wanted to buy the H930DS (V30+) variant to use on T-Mobile USA -- which is what those other people tried to do.

US carriers never sell dual SIM phones. They'd rather have you buy two phones

I just spoke to a Moto Rep face to face at a Verizon Location. I asked specificly when the G6 Plus would be available in the states and he said only 4 devices will be available in that price range, the E4, E5, G6, and G6 play.
Then in the 2 quarter they will announce the Z3 which he wouldn't comment on....
*EDIT*
I ended up purchasing a Moto G6 Plus Dual SIM International Model, because it has all the current GSM Carrier LTE Bands, but this model does not play nice on CDMA Carriers LTE, except TMOs 600mhz... Contacted Motorola in regards to turning the 600mhz band on, awaiting a reply.
Also, I contacted Moto Customer Care, they confirmed what i previously stated, in regards to NO USA G6 Plus Version.....
*EDIT*
The Moto G6 Plus Dual SIM variant will the Model # XT-1926-7 WILL BE COMPATIBLE WITH AT&T WIRELESS AND T-Mobile, except for TMO's 600mhz band, which i am waiting for an answer from the Moto Gods above...
The dual Sim international version has same LTE Bands as US except 600mhz. I just ordered a G6 Plus International version from Amazon.

Lenovo trying to commit suicide in the US?
Ordered a XT-1926-7 Dual SIM Variant of the Moto G6 Plus from Amazon, will be here tomorrow....
By the way, This particular model covers ALL GSM Carriers LTE Bands for AT&T and TMO, except for the 600 mhz band which i am waiting to find out if theres an ON switch for that...

Does this mean the 600mhz band only applies to T-Mobile, or would need to switch it on to use with AT&T as well?

I believe the 600mhz band is more for capacity issues, and im not sure if ATT will have Roaming Agreements with TMO on said spectrum... sorry
*edit*
But the model i ordered, the XT-1926-7, covers ALL ATT and TMO current bands...only a handful of devices are running 600mhz while other models will just require an OTA update to turn 600 to the ON position.
edit- just saw your edit. I just looked it up, and my current US market phone is not among the handful that support that band anyway.
Thank you. I live in a remote rural area where T-mobile reception was bad, and AT&T is acceptable with a normal USA phone, so I probably do need all those bands.
Disappointed to find out no G6 plus or Nokia 7 plus in USA. Maybe that will change. In the meantime it would be great if international versions works just as well- please update if/how you get that band turned on.
Mine should be here any minute
My luck USPS will run late today....
I don't understand their sales policy, don't know about US but example from UK:
G6 Plus exclusively sold by one company not available elsewhere. Amazon UK for some reason only sells G6 Play as well says "exclusive for Amazon" but lets say Amazon DE do sell G6 Plus. P.S. Why Motorola don't sell their phones directly on their website..? I'm confused...
Update on Activating/Enabling 600 mhz
fo use on t-mobile. Just ordered phone. Thanks
If I call Moto/Lenovo direct, could I buy one for use in USA? If I told them I will be traveling abroad? Maybe?

Don't believe what they say on the Amazon website about the LTE bands for the MOTO G6 Plus (XT191926-7).
They say:
HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 - LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 12(700), 13(700), 17(700), 20(800), 25(1900), 26(850), 28(700), 29(700), 30(2300), 38(2600), 41(2500), 66(1700/2100) - Dual SIM (Nano-SIM, dual stand-by)
This is not true.
The LTE bands are:
LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800), 38(2600) - Europe
LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 28(700) - Brazil
LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 18(800), 19(800), 26(850), 28(700), 38(2600), 40(2300), 41(2500) - India
I returned my order using prime

There is a XT1926-7 Variant for the G6Plus as I have it. What do you mean the OP was not so lucky?
I used this info to inform my decision to return the g6 +

since It doesn't list a -7 variant as the amazon ad does. If yours is a -7 variant it will be marked on the phones back bottom bezel. In the end i couldnt construct enough supportive data that persuaded me to buy the g6+. Probably the largest factor was that the G6+ didnt have a US warranty. Search for the OPs name on the G6+ motorola forum and read his lengthy exchange with them about the phones compatibility with US networks.

Stop with the misinformation.
First, you say there is no XT1926-7, now you say there is. Yes there is:
https://fccid.io/IHDT56WL5/Test-Report/XT1926-6-XT1926-7-TestRpt-DXX-3754423
Secondly, no it does not say it on the bezel. Again, take it from someone who owns the device.
Third, as for TJ/The OP, great guy. Talked to him on many occasions in the Telegram dev chat. I don't recall him having issues with carriers, but maybe I am forgetting something. We had issues with the software channel setting being RETLA not RETUS, so that might be a factor if he did indeed have issues. In either case, the device works fine for me on Straight Talk(AT&T), Simple Mobile(T-Mobile), and Walmart Family Mobile(T-Mobile). I see in the OP he mentioned CDMA carriers. The FCC report states it only supports WCDMA not CDMA. So that's probably a factor to.
If you have passed on the device, please pass up this part of the forum rather then spreading misinformation and contradicting yourself about a device you don't own which contradicts your earlier post here.
Ok..Ok You win the internets today

1- So what is the designation of that -7 variant? Does it get all the US LTE bands?
2- My G6 had it on a sticker fixed on the back.....
3-WhoTH said anything about anything being your friends fault? Nice of you to stick up for him though. So..it had to do with the software channel as you mentioned. How did you fix it?
Heres a link to the moto forum thread i reference...https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Moto-G...26-7-How-to-change-Retail-Channel/m-p/4119230
4- Again, MAIN reason i didnt buy this device was the lack of a warranty..
Have a good weekend...cheers

1. Answered in the Moto Forum Post you linked to, but It get's all T-Mo bands. I can't be asked to research other GSM based LTE Bands used in the US, but again, the phone works on AT&T and T-Mobile for me. I don't know what TJs issue was seems it is isolated or mostly isolated to him.
2. A sticker? Stickers come and go but I don't recall one being on my device.
3. Who said it was my friend? I said I have talked to him, and he's a good guy. No it was never determined to be software related. It was never confirmed what the issue was.
4. Again, you say you didn't buy it, but yet in point #2 you claimed yours had a sticker. If you didn't buy it then how did "your's" have a sticker?
