T-Mobile GS3 and International Usage - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Hello all! I have a T-Mobile GS3 and was wondering how I might be able to find out which (if any) carriers in Portugal would work with the 3G/4G bands that my GS3 uses. Having google maps available to me while i'm traveling around would be a huge help. Does anyone know?

Will I be able to use this phone in Asia?

I know Sammy had to make this model because of some hardware compatability issues with T-Mobile's 3G network, and I've head that the standard international S2 (i9100) won't work with T-Mobile's 3G. If I buy the T-Mobile version, will I be able to use this in Asia? (specifically Thailand).
Right now I'm debating whether to get this or the Sensation. I'd rather get this phone, but I'm moving to Thailand next year, so I just want to make sure everything will work. I've searched everywhere and I haven't found an answer to this question.
it will depend which network frequency you are planing to use it on, but the answer is likely yes

T-Mobile and the Internation Note

I recently purchased an international note, and i put my sim card in and everything but i'm only picking up edge, no hsdpa. I'm with tmobile, and i know i'm in a spot where i used to pick up hsdpa on my original note. If my understanding is right, the note 2 is quad band and should work on all us carriers as long as its unlocked right? any help is greatly appreciated. thanks!
btw. i'm rooted and running hypernote 0.3
What version of Note1 did you have. It's been mentioned 1000 times on this forum, the N7100 does not support Tmobile HSPA+ unless you are in a refarmed area. If you are counting on using TMobile, sell your phone and buy the TMobile version. That way you can use it anywhere and not depend on finding refarmed tower which are only in a handfull of cities at the moment.

Chinese Galaxy Note 2 GT-N7108 in US on ATT

Does anyone know if it is possible to get any more than EDGE data on a GT-N7108 (Chinese version) in the US on ATT/StraightTalk or any other network?
My buddy just got one from overseas, and using my 4G LTE ATT sim card was able to just get EDGE, playing with various APN settings didn't help.
Looking at the tech specs I see it does not have the 850MHz frequency in the spec sheet, and has some differences for some other data services.
If anyone knows what is possible, please let me know.

[Q] Frequency Question for Sim Unlocked TMO S4

Hi Everyone and thanks in advance,
I have a T-Mo Galaxy S4 that was SIM unlocked through unlockerDotnet.
I've heard that the T-Mo S4 is better than AT&T for a variety of reasons, but more importantly that it picks up all of T-Mobiles HSPA+ along with AT&T's network. So in theory, having it sim unlocked, I could fully utilize t-mobile's service and at&t's service to their full potential. Can anyone confirm this?
Reason I ask was I was speaking with a TMO rep once and he said the international unlocked version wouldn't pick up on the full spectrum of TMO frequencies, but it should be fine with AT&T. Ideally I want to get into a situation where I have the option to jump between the two through their full spectrum, or any mvno's that use their towers as well.
Thanks for the clarification! Details and specifics appreciated!

T-Mobile's phone will work on both AT&T and T-Mobile however im not sure if the 4g LTE will work on AT&T's Network but either way you will only be able to use one or the other at any one time.

Unlocked T-Mobile G3 on Verizon?

Hey guys,
I couldn't find a thread here on XDA in regards to this, but I am wondering if my T-Mobile LG G3 that has been unlocked by T-Mobile will work on Verizon....at all? This is not a personal choice, but more like I keep being asked by many in regards to my ad on Craigslist if the phone will work. I have done some research on this and found that the G3's LTE antenna can utilize a few select bands of Verizon's LTE, so data and MMS are my last worry. My main concern is voice and texting. COnsidering those are separate antennae, what should I know in order to inform possible buyers? I obviously do not want to be falsifying information in any way (literally against my morals; I was screwed over twice with smartphones and CL).
Again, what should I know. I seem to be finding myself using gsmarena.com to compare the Verizon G3 and T-Mobile G3 LTE band support.
Any help will amazing so I can get this phone sold! Thanks all!! :good:
According to willmyphonework the LTE will work fine but if they ever go anywhere without LTE, they will not have service at all. The CDMA part of verizon isn't compatible with the GSM edge capabilities of the T-Mobile g3.
