Hi I am planning to get a LG V60 Verizon Variant (network unlocked) but I have a problem with the band frequencies because the LTE band that is supported in my countrie are Band 3,28,41. I want to know if I inserted a sim (from my country) will I be able to access the bands that is listed as roaming in the LG V60 tech spec sheet without activating data roaming? or does the band only activates in data roaming?
Yes but do not have B41 so check region where you can use B41. with B28 and B3 no problem

I just ordered an "unlocked" G5 H830 on Ebay, after carefully checking the LTE bands on the FrequencyCheck. I know I need bands 2 and 17 because I used the LTE Discovery App to determine that my carrier (AT&T US) provides LTE on in my area. But I just realized that other sites show different LTE bands for the H830 model...
FrequencyCheck LTE 1/2/3/4/5/7/12/17/30 (I hope this is right because I need Band 17)
The LG Website LTE 2/4/5/12/29/30, Roaming 1/3/7/20, and CA
Autoprime's helpful G5 thread LTE B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B7/B12/B20
Can anyone confirm which of these is correct? Or verify that the H830 cannot use Band 17? Has anyone succeeded in adding LTE bands to the G5? Perhaps as described in this thread about phones with Qualcomm chipsets?
The moral of the story - check multiple websites when selecting a model with the right frequency bands for your carrier/area!

I know it's been a month
For att, band 12 support is equivalent to band 17 support. If you see a phone with band 12, it'll work on att's band 17
(12 is a superset of 17. Att has deployed mfbi on most of their network so that 12 phones can connect to their 17 network
Reverse is not true- 17 phones cannot connect to 12 networks since 17 phones are missing the nonoverlapping stuff in 12
That saying , I can't help with lte bands (h830 may or may not be missing 29/30 which att uses as a third lte layer. Not that important since you can rely on band 12/17/5 as first layer, band 2/4 as second layer)
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

Hi All,
I am using korean lg g3 ls990 sprint model mobile.
I purchased it from ebay website and it is based on sprint network.
It's base OS was kitkat 4.4.2 ZV4 and I flashed it with Cynagonemod 13 OS.
I am able to see LTE in my "preferred network type" but I never get the 4G network, it is working for 3g only.
I am thinking that Mobile's LTE Band level is not supported for India's Network.
Basically LG G3 Sprint Supports: GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz, UMTS 850/1900/2100, LTE Bands 25/26/41*
But in India we need 2300Mhz band 40. So how to enable Band 40 / LTE 4G.
Please help me.
Many Thanks.

have the same issue here . if you have any idea about that i would appreciate your help .
I got the H901 T-mobile locked off ebay about two years ago. I moved to India recently for work and will stay for a year. As a tmo customer i was able to permanently unlock it using the app it came with before i left the US. I bought a local sim card (Reliance Jio 4G) which uses 4G only (voLTE for calls and data). I checked the frequency bands before getting this sim and it supported 2 of the 3 bands. My problem is that it wont take to the network? (If there is a similar thread please link me to it).
Jio LTE Bands -
FD-LTE B3 (1800 +) (Supported by v10)
FD-LTE B5 (850) (Supported by v10)
TD-LTE B40 (TD 2300) (Unsupported)
I think T-mobile mostly used the 2100 band for LTE in the US. Does this mean that my phone is not taking to the 1800/850 bands or is the cell phone provided not broadcasting over them and just using the 2300 band which is unsupported by my phone?
1) Found the service code *#546368#*901# played around with the bands. (Bands 2, 3, 5 and 20 were a success on this network even though only bands 5 & 3 are supported that was weird) - No luck getting 4G
2) Then forced Band 5 & 3 cause those are my only true options and did rat selection as LTE only. - No luck getting 4G
3) Kept above settings same and went to APN. Saw missing APN and googled the settings. - Success! 4G but no text/calls active.
Trying to figure out how i can get voLTE on this now.
I found a work around with an apk from the service provider that handles calls and texts using LTE. But still cannot text or call using v10's voLTE feature. If anyone knows why i'd like to know. Otherwise, this thread can be closed.
