ATT version of TP2 is almost a world phone? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2009...g-htc-tilt-2-starting-october-8th/#more-36058
If you take a look at the first picture UMTS frequency is stated as 850/1900/2100MHz for the tilt2 So all it's missing is 800 for some part of japan or asia i think. And maybe 900 for some part of Australia? Though I've never heard of a 5 or 6 band phone before.
I guess this means its US(att), euro, asia 3g compatible.
Anyone got thoughts or clarifications?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM_frequency_bands
If I am thinking correctly, it should cover almost all world bands. I think the 700 mhz range is outdated or in very limited areas.

So it´s closer and closer!
Thanks for the info
looking through the documents, it was tested with the full 3G/HSDPA/HSUPA spectrum... should be unlockable and usable on AT&T! sold.
So... it's for at&t and not tmobile? What are the available bands? I had a hard time interpreting them. I thought it was tmobile 3g....

m.carroll just meant that it's got full 3G Spectrum capability and can be used in on US bands. However, I think this is the US FCC and therefore it would be doing this anyway. I was under this impression this is the US Tmo unit and not the european Tmo.
Either way though, it's looking like all of the 4 major carriers will be getting this unit at some point so we don't need to worry too much.
What I'm wondering is what are the specific specs of this unit. It will likely represent the specific specs of most of the American carriers. Specifically, did they keep all the features like the front facing VGA camera, the full executive speakerphone, keep the same processor or improve it, and keep or improve the ram/rom. US versions of the original TP were some what hadicaped, so I'm hoping that won't repeat. Even though there isn't a ton I can do with it, I really want to keep that front facing VGA camera.'
Come on Sprint! How much longer?
yeah, I figured it out. It was hard to read the pdfs from my phone. This particular model seems to have AT&T's 3g bands. But on of the docs lists another model which may be the cdma version or tmobile usa version. Some folks are saying this is the euro/asia version but why in the hell would the fcc (usa based) need to pass that, lol?!

Well, it has been leaked that the CDMA model for sprint will be GSM capable for using overseas. I don't know if it will be capable of using HSPDA in the US on our frequencies though. If so, it would make switching carriers very simple. Either way, it's nice to have a phone that you can throw a sim card in and go. That is as long as you can get it unlocked.
It has WCDMA band I & band VIII so it's an Euro/Asia version.

The front-facing camera will almost certainly be gone. I bet the speakerphone will be kept, and they certainly won't improve the processor. RAM/ROM upgrades are doubtful but slightly more possible, but that would suggest a pretty outrageous price for it too, so I'm hoping they stick with the published specs. Look for Sprint to start selling it no sooner than October, probably more like Mid-November.

US Touch Pro 2 Unlocked

Anyone know if they will be releasing an unlocked version for the US carriers? I would get the European version myself, as 3g isn't a big deal for me, but what gives me concern is the Wall charger doesn't include a US plug. Im sure this is a small deal considering i could proly just buy a standard HTC charger, but im just curious if they will be having an unlocked that will both include the US charger, and work on US 3g networks.
no word yet hua?
Why do you think the European model won't work on U.S. 3G networks?
European 3G I believe works on the 1900 MHz band (supported by the Touch Pro 2). U.S. 3G operates on the 850 MHz band (also supported by the Touch Pro 2). By technical standards, this should work fine in the U.S. on the 3G band.
As far as the charger goes, yes, that is a concern. But I don't doubt that somewhere in your house you've got a miniUSB charger lying around. If not, your local Wal-Mart/Target/Radio-Shack/Best Buy will have a million of them.

I have been on a number of blogs for the TP2 and they are seem to be in agreement that the European TP2 will only work over the EDGE network in US...
Personally, I am currently an iPhone user, but my wife is driving me crazy waiting for this US version!

Here is a good story on MSNBC.com on the various 3G standards. It is dated last Sept. but it is still good.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26511322/
uk/europe model will only work on edge in US. devicewire have done a detailed review on a europe model and could only get edge. to get 3g will need to wait for official model for that region.

Actually you have it awry. European 3G runs on 2100mhz not 1900. U.S 3G runs on 850/1900mhz.
If you go to HTC's site, the TP2 Euro model will do GSM/GPRS/EDGE on 1900mhz. SO if O.P imports a Euro version, he could use it on EDGE or he could just wait for the AT&T version. T-mobile USA's 3G runs on 1700mhz though.
T-mobile USA's 3G requires both 1700mhz and 2100mhz. Suppose to be hear around July 22nd...

Standard mini usb cables, yes and i also am aware i can also just charge the thing using the included USB cable. What im asking about is the WALL charger. If HTC uses thier standard USB-mini cable that is on a good chunk of their devices, including the HD/ Tilt/Diamond ect.. im sure finding a US charger wont be that hard.
Also, i was asking about an Unlocked US version, i do not intend to get one though the carrier as i dont want a modified version that they lock down. Nor do i care to wait till the fall when AT&T gets off their duffs to finally release it.
In any event, im just keeping my ear open and seeing what the grapevine heard about it.
Sorry guys. My bad.
I was confusing the specifications thinking that HTC would at least be smart enough to include full support for all markets. I was reading the Quad-Band GSM as support for HSPA/3G bands. I was totally bypassing the HSPA/WCDMA dual-band specification.
Chalk it up to a mix of wishful thinking and childish excitement. That does, however, kick the crap out of my week. Only HTC can bring me down this hard.
Well, I guess ATT got approved for theirs. Now the only question remains is, will their be an unlocked US version that supports 3g? or will we have to get the European version?
I'm in Taiwan for Computex and am so tempted to buy a touch pro 2 here. I would wait for the AT&T version but after seeing they changed the keyboard I want the HTC model. Only reason I haven't picked one up yet is because it only gets edge in the US on AT&T.
Does anyone know if the hardware cannot physically work on at&t's 3g bands or do we just have to wait for the at&t version to come out so the radio can be copied over or something. Thanks!

The hardware physically cannot handle it. The Euro/Asian model only supports 3G on the European and Asian bands which are completely different frequencies from the ones used in the U.S. It's definitely not just a matter of software.
And I think we all need to be clear that no one has any idea what the AT&T keyboard will actually look like. The promotional material we have all seen and discussed ad nauseum is a slap-together of the HTC mockup with AT&T's promotional verbage. Even the promotional bullet points list that the "HTC Fortress" has a 5 row keyboard while the mockup picture shows a 4 row keyboard. That picture, at this point, means pretty much nothing at all.
I see, Ill hold off then. Its kinda hard to justify ~$800 on a phone here anyways that doesn't have a warranty in the states. Thanks for the help!
Will the US Unlocked Version have the secondary VGA camera for video conferencing like the European one does?
What is the advantage of getting a carrier specific phone (AT&T or T-Mobile) as opposed to a US Unlocked phone outside of price?
I'm currently with Sprint and want to switch to a GSM provider.

no, the us carriers don't support that feature => no front facing camera.

the carrier phones usually come with some sort of branding (software: e.g. sprint tv application / hardware: different battery cover, different keyboard layout and so on)
This can either be an advantage or a disadvantage...

Touch PRO 2 with UMTS 850/2100 MHZ

hi guys,
check this out..
http://personaldigital.com.au/p171/HTC-Touch-PRO-2-T7373-850-Mhz-NEXTG-%21%21-PRO2/buy.html
It has those frequencies selectable out of the box on any version I believe.
no, you are taking about the GSM bands
i was talking about the UMTS/ WCDMA 850/2100
Most versions WORLDWIDE are 900/2100
850 is the AT&T (USA) and Telstra (Australia) 3G Bands
I am under the impression AT&T and Rogers/Fido also use the 1900mhz for downloads. The 850 bands is only the "upload" band.
Yeah, but paying around 400 dollars more for an 850mhz band you must REALLY want it.
Wait a second
I know att uses the 850 and 1900 bands for 3g but I never heard that the 1900 band is for downloading and the 850 band is for uploading. Is this true? Can anyone confirm this 100%?
I was holding off buying the samsung omnia II because it only had the 1900.
Unless I am mistaken, when do you really need to upload anything on a mobile phone?
I hope someone can confirm this asap because then I can get an omnia now instead of waiting for att to release the tp2.
I have a hard time finding a credible source that explains the use of the two separate Bands but I saw it mentioned more then one time.
Anyone got a source with Provider/Bands/Usage, it would be a great tool.
If the bands really serve separate function it's a problem because upload is essential to downloading because you need to tell the server what you want to received hehe.
So 3G band are the following: T-Mo uses 1700/2100, this phone would be a 850/2100, ATT would be 850/1900, Europe would mostly be 900/2100, etc.
at&t has two separate 3G bands; 850 and 1900 mhz. these two bands are independent of each other and each one does upload/download. (this is unlike tmobile which uses 1700 for download and 2100 for upload i believe). So the best thing is to figure out what area you are in; most areas are mixed with 850 and 1900 and some areas are only one or the other. At&t is making a move towards more 850mhz because it is the better penetrating band. I know in south florida it is mostly 850mhz with a little bit of 1900 in miami. Hence why my old Nokia E51 (has 850 and 2100 mhz 3G, like the Telus TP2) worked perfectly down here on 3G. hope this clarifies it
Thanks for the input.
I gotta see what`s the deal with Rogers/Fido in Montreal!

I have a Touch HD from Telstra, i am using it on ATT in CA, it only has 850 for 3g, and it works for both, up and download. My area has mostly 850 and some 1900, I get 3g almost everywhere. works great.
Not worth it. I'm sure the AT&T version will be out within 2 months.
You will end up paying $500-$600 just to have a half-working one up to 2 months early. Its not even unbranded.
That's wrong. According to that page (and others), the Telstra version is a bit over a thousand dollars, not just 400-500 US. And you're right, seems the AT&T version will be out in October.
I mean $500-$600 more than the AT&T version.
your missing the worth
the point is you'll get the original HTC device included with the front facing camera the original keyboard none of the filler apps (that slow down the phone) and the sleeker look with out posibly loosing the straight talk technology. who knows what att will remove to save on cost.
Its already been shown. It loses the front camera and the keyboard arrangement is different. And it has an AT&T logo. Do you really want to pay $500 more just to not have that little logo? The front camera is useless in the U.S. and the keyboard is just different, not worst. Flash the original ROM or any cooked ROM and all your software issues (and lockouts) are gone. Plus with the AT&T version, you have access to super fast replacements if anything were to happen.
Heck, for that price you could possibly buy both the US and the European version, getting coverage basically everywhere in the world

[Q] International / Unlocked HTC 8 (M8x) - LTE bands?? Majorly confused

Hi - I got a killer deal on an international (Asian model) HTC One M8x on eBay so I jumped on it... After receiving it, I noticed LTE is not working with T Mobile. The phone supports LTE 700 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600... Before purchasing, I didn't notice AWS/Band 4 wasn't listed. Oh well, still a great device.
I did some research and saw that T-Mo just bought Verizon's 700mhz; but 'Block A' only..? my phone supports 700mhz, but I'm not sure which block it will work with.
I live in a pretty populated area in Southern California, so I would assume that this area will be covered when T-Mo rolls out 700mhz on their network around early 2015.
Will my phone work on Block A? What is the difference between blocks? I just recently learned about the different frequencies, and now I'm hearing 'block A, B, C,' etc.. I'm officially confused.
Anyone with extended knowledge of LTE - your responses are greatly appreciated.
thanks!!!
According to the following Wiki, the 700 MHz bands used in North America are also called Bands 12, 13, and 17. These seem to correspond with the blocks you mentioned (A, B, C) with "700 a" (presumably Block A) corresponding to Band 12.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks
Of the countries and carriers in Europe, Middle East, and Asia (the "international" M8 is actually called the EMEA version) only Taiwan seems to use 700 MHz, and its Band 28. So presumably, this is the band that is supported by your version.
Not sure, but you might be out of luck (your phone supports Band 28, but T-Mobile bought Band 12?).
It is confusing, I agree. My main takeaway is that there sure a lot of different bands that make up 700 MHz!

Thanks for the info and the link!! After reading the wiki page I did some more Googling.. It seems as though the 700mhz is available through bands 12, 13, 14, 44, 17 and 28. It's crazy that my phone only supports one of them. Too bad I won't have LTE....HSPA+ is horribly slow where I live. (unless it's about 3am, then I get a few MB up and down)
I noticed you have AT&T...are you aware if this phone will pick up LTE on an AT&T gophone? I will consider their $60/month prepaid if it will.
Or maybe another GSM carrier that my phone is compatible with? I would really hate to leave T-Mo but I miss LTE.
thanks again for your help!

T-mobile's AWS platform is mostly going to be a 1900 and 1700 setup if i remember correctly. they have purchased the 700mhz spectrum from verizon but no one is really using it yet. Only Verizon has even started to populate that spectrum with their new X-LTE which no one can really take advantage of. and really the HSDPA isnt that bad. i mean i have a tmobile M8 and i get LTE like 70% of the time but the rest of the time i'm on HSPAP and its fine i get like anywhere between 5-10mbps...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-Mobile_US
you can look further down the page it shows you every band that they use or own.

Its not really that crazy. When they say "700 Mhz" I think what they really mean is that the actually frequencies used are somewhere around 700-799 MHz. And this can be divided up to many different distinct "bands". If you refer to the Wiki page I linked, you will see in the notes under the North America section, for example:
700 Block B
(↓) 734 – 740 MHz / (↑) 704 – 710 MHz
So the MHz number can be misleading; and its really the Band (12, 13, etc.) that you need to pay attention to. Or both the Band/block and MHz in conjunction really, as its often the MHz that is listed.

Don't think it work on AT&T's LTE network. AT&T uses Bands 4 and 17 for LTE. None of these are supported on the EMEA version based on what we've discussed.
Buying phones from 3rd party sources can be very tricky. US carriers in particular use very particular and often proprietary bands. This was true with 3G, and seems to be even more so with LTE. The bands used by even foreign markets has become increasingly less standardized with LTE (there was a good amount of standardization in foreign regions with 2G and 3G). One has to be very careful and resource thoroughly before buying a phone from any source aside from your carrier.

LG G3: a big problem with 4G

Hi, i have a big problem with my LG G3 bought on january of this year. the version is the D855, italian warranty (as i am italian). from the moment which i put my SIM into the cell phone i noticed that it doesn't connect to 4G network (as just it found a 4G connectivity it started to search another network till it'd have found a 3G/H+ connectivity), delivered twice to the customer service (so i staied two months without mobile), LG wasn't able to solve the issue said that their test on the network was all right, now i found the only one provider that works with my device (i'm talking about H3G, before,when i bought it, i had Vodafone, but i have tried Wind and Tim though), but now i want to change it because it costs an arm and a leg, and i want to solve this problem by myself (as LG do nothing to solve it) and it seems there is no one with my same issue in the world wide, so what it would be a probably solution??? ask for other infos if you need!!!

If LG found nothing wrong with your device, and and only one operator has 4G working on that phone, it means that your phone doesn't support the bands other carriers are offering.
LTE bands for this phone (855) are 700 Mhz,800 Mhz, 900Mhz, 1800 Mhz, 2100Mhz, 2300 Mhz and 2600 Mhz.
Also, worth noticing is that the coverage differs from carrier to carrier.

i don't think that the problem is that, here are the LTE bands of the main italian carriers (included H3G):
-Telecom Italia: 800 MHz, 1800 MHz, 2600 MHz;
-Vodafone Italia: 800 MHz, 1800 MHz, 2600 MHz;
-Wind Telecomunicazioni: 800 MHz, 2600 MHz;
-H3G (3 Italia): 1800 MHz, 2600 MHz.
i have tried each one of these but the only one that works is H3G indeed and besides is the only one that doesn't own the 800 MHz band, so maybe the problem is that my mobile is not able to connect on this band (although it is available as you mentioned in your specs ). so is there a solution? p.s. on my old G2 work all four of them so it is undeniable that my G3 has a problem, i want just know if this problem is resolvable by myself and how!
whatever thank you for the help
