GSM frequency - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Is there a way to determine what GSM frequency my phone is currently using? I'd like to make sure that 850 is enabled and that I can use it. (best signal here)

[Q] Change Defy 3G Frequency?

Hello I live in New Zealand and we have a network here called Telecom XT which uses 3G freq: 850 & 2100 mhz.
Unfortunately all Motorola Defy sold here have their freq specified as: 3G Network: HSDPA 900 / 2100
I see in the development section there is a way to flash files to restore 3G coverage and one of the files has the 850 & 2100mhz that our Telecom XT network uses. Does this mean I can flash this file to enable those frequencies on this phone or does it mean that the Chinese versions of Defy have a different chip that supports the different frequency?
Hey,
Unless the Defy has a tri band WCDMA chip (which im pretty sure it doesn't) then you can't simply flash new radio firmware/RIL to enable frequencies.
If you want an XT compatible desire, your best bet is something from T-Mobile or more ideally Telstra Australia's NextG network, which is the same as XT. Mobicity for example sells NextG handsets which will work perfectly on XT.
If you have the 900mhz Defy i believe you are limited to Vodafone/2Degrees. Flashing these Radio/RIL fixes i think were because those with 850mhz handsets with issues running radios designed for 900mhz.
Just to confirm, Defy hardware can only do certain pairs of frequencies (e.g. as say mentioned on gsmarena.com) irrespective of what ROM is put on it ?
Is there anyway to find out (from model/serial number or other way) what hardware one has ? (for 3G frequency)
I'm pretty sure about mine, though I bought this Defy 2nd-hand and flashed it, so just wanted to be sure. (I flashed it with 900/2100 MHz ROM and it seems to work fine on T-Mobile 3G in London, UK. But wonder if there is a way to check - perhaps for another unit....)

Desire Dialler Code - Select network frequency?

Howdy,
Just been having a play with my galaxy tab and found a dialler code to manually select which network bands the phone will/can use. I was wondering if there's anything similar for desire? I'm running oxygen specifically (if it makes a difference).
Reason for asking is that my provider runs both 850MHz and 2100MHz networks - 850 is MUCH better but the phone seems to pick a network at random.
Cheers
Your phone "should" pick the frequency which is more stronger at the time. If you live on the border of a cow's rear, well, it may fluctuate.
Be thankful you have a signal.

[Q] Overclock Verizon Galaxy Nexus LTE frequency

Hey guys!
I want to know if some tried, or thinks is possible, to overclock the LTE antenna on the VZW Galaxy Nexus.
I know their LTE works at 700 MHz, which no other damn place in the world uses. However in Brazil they have a GSM carrier working at 850 MHz and LTE is back compatible with GSM. So what I wanted to try is overclock the antenna so it would be able to work in Brazil. That seems possible because the frequency of the antenna is no limited by the hardware, it is programmed in some way.
So anyone with more knowledge can tell if that can work? We are able to overclock the processor trough ROMs, so there's must be a way to overclock the antenna. Maybe trying to use a GSM radio for the cellphone LTE radio?
Thanks!

Help me

What means (CDMA) and (GSM) In Title of Rom? And I live in Brazil and my 3g is not working.Thanks
GSM is when it needs a SIM card for it to work, CDMA the SIM card is built in and is part of the device, and locked to a specific CDMA based network.
Have you tried changing the APN settings to match that of your carrier's?
Thanks, researched it, my carrier operates in the 850 MHz frequency, and the xperia play r800i not have this frequency.
I believe it can operate at the 850 mhz band, you just need to flash the correct baseband for it. I have no idea which one you need to flash on your phone though...

LTE problems

Hi, I would like ask why LTE is not working on n5120? Anyone who has a fix?
Make sure that your network mode is set to auto mode
If it doesn't, your tablet's network frequency may be different from the lte frequency of your carrier. I have the same problem too but I found out that my tablet has a different frequency. It is because the lte frequency of the country where I bought my tablet has a different frequency to my carrier's lte frequency
