Hi!
I want to buy an Lg v60 in ebay, to use outside of usa. In my country, 5g band is n78, but the usa version don't have this band. Can I unlock 5g bands or make a crossflash to european firmware to use 5g?
greetings
No hardware support for n78 band

Hi I'm from México, I'm interested to buy H850, but some websites says, that H850 AND H850RT doesnt' support 4G LTE Band 4 AWS and it says they are the same phone, my question is: ¿Does H850 support LTE B4 AWS (1700 /2100)?, I'll buy it on Aliexpress. ***B4 AWS also works on U.S.A*** thanks for your time.
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.

That thread is not talking about if the T-Mobile version of this phone has dual SIM. It's saying the India version isn't working on T-Mobile.

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.

Further to what ChazzMatt said, maybe this will help explain it:
Per gsmarena:
T-mobile model:
3G bands HSDPA 850 / 1700(AWS) / 1900 / 2100
4G bands LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 12(700), 20(800), 28(700), 29(700), 40(2300), 41(2500), 66(1700/2100), 71(600)
DS models (no Band 2*, AWS Band 4*, Band 5 (usually AT&T), Band 12*, Band 66*, Band 71*):
3G bands HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 (no AWS Band 4)
4G bands LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800), 28(700), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500)
*current T-mobile Band usage not available on current DS models (though it could be just as simple as flashing the T-mobile software radio though you would need root/bootloader unlock which the DS models are purported not to have) as the DS models usually do not have Band 66 or Band 71 (these are the bands that T-mobile has expanded their LTE network with currently)

Thanks guys! That's a bummer.
US carriers never sell dual SIM phones. They'd rather have you buy two phones

I Purchased the note 20 Ultra 5G in USA and shipped it to Australia.
I later found out that the US Note 20 Ultra 5G variant doesnt have band n78, which is the main band of Asutralias best 5g provider, Telstra.
I am wondering if anyone knows conclusively if the s7 5g or s7+ 5g has the n78 band, some websites denote it does, others say it doesnt, but i feel they might be reffing to the LTE version sometime which of course does not have n78 5G band. This is the US variant from Samsung.com website.
Thanks in advance
Hello,
I am looking to buy an unlocked S21 from Samsung Canada store (SM-G991W) and I checked here :
S21 differences that the following 5G bands: n2, n41, n66, n71 are the ones supported by the Candian model so my question is:
Is it possible to change the supported bands? For example, if I travel to a country where the used 5G band is the n28, will the S21 support this band. If so, how please?
Btw, I have seen some users changing Network bands on Samsung devices without root so I want to make sure that it works with the 5G bands especially from someone who have a S21 please?
Here is the link of the short tutorial: Un/Locking LTE Bands on Samsung I am talking about.
Thanks for your help

The SM-G911W had the following technical specifications for mobile network 5G: 2, 5, 25, 41, 66, 71, 260, 261.
Check here for differences of the S21 5G variants:
Samsung Galaxy S21 5G Model Number SM-G991* Differences - TechWalls
There are a lot of model numbers of the Samsung Galaxy S21 5G on the market but all of them start with SM-G991. To find out all the differences, you can check the comparison table below.

AFAIK this is caused by hardware. So no software related "unlocking".
Does the dual sim s21 sm-g991b get 5g on tmo usa? The icon shows lte+. Is that similar?

Hi mate
the phone is capable but your carrier maybe not lte+ is not 5G
Check here
You'll get the N41 5G band, but you wont get N71, N260 or N261 (the 2 MMwave bands). You're also missing some important LTE bands on it too.
You won't have a good time with that device.
And no, LTE+ is 4G. 5G is 5G.
