I wonder if we us on GB can flash the firmware?
Sent from my LT28i using xda app-developers app
It probably won't have the radio for LTE since the lt28h is a hspa phone only.
Sony phones have great designs but seems like they are held back because there is next to nothing for software updates and no 3rd party ROMs.
nsrksh hath
It was'nt released yet.
Don't matter any more since we found out the LT28h can be flashed on the LT28i and LT28at without the baseband and you will keep LTE.

Hi guys & girls!
I have a R800i from Europe. I am using AT&T, but I don't get neither 3G nor 4G, only EDGE. I recently got the beta 4.0.3 from SONY ERICSSON developers site. Is there any was I can use a baseband from AT&T PLAY 4G and get atleast 3G?
Please HELP!!!
Sent from my R800i using XDA
No man...... im really sorry but this is something related to hardware, the only way you can get 3G is with a r800a or r800at

which baseband can i use with a xperia play EU r800i with ICS ?
I am considering getting a Xperia PLAY 4 AT&T for when my contract ends with Verizon. I aw the new T-Mobile plans that were announced on July 1st and am considering going with them, as they have a new plan where if you bring in your own phone their services are really cheap. Anyway, my question is if anyone here is using the AT&T PLAY on T-Mobile in the US if they can tell me how good is the HSPA+ with T-Mobile? I thought I have seen somewhere that TMo and AT&T share the same frequency for HSPA+. Can anyone give me there feedback on this? Thank you in advance.

Edit : I read your post wrong at first. I know my r800a is carrier unlocked and will work for both att and tmobile. But I havent used it yet, If I do though, I will be sure and let you know!
Hate to revive an old thread but wanted to let everyone know I switched from VZ to Tmobile last night, and I am getting 7mbps down 2mbps up on my unlocked AT&T xperia play.
All in all I am very happy.
Kinda off topic but whats the model for the play 4g as I looked it up and could not find it...wouldn't be different then the r800a/i/x/at or is the at the 4g version?

Its AT&T's xperia play (R800at) they call it the xperia play 4G because it has the HSPA+ frequency. So not really 4G, more like 3.5G.

Huh..... I wasnt aware the R800a was also HSPA+ capable.... is the R800a from Rogers in Canada? Because if memory serves me right Rogers uses the same frequencies as AT&T.
I belive the a is for Latin america

The "r800A" and "AT" are pretty much identical. I think the "A" was just sold outside the US. You could get an R800A and flash the right TA file to it and use it on AT&T.

I have an R800a on t-mobile but the hspa is super slow for me, has the big H symbol but its exactly what I expect running edge, something must be wrong, is 120-150 kbps on hspa normal?
can any xperia ION be able to get LTE by flashing the gb firmware?

LT28i= international 3g, H, Lte
LT28h= international 3g, H
LT28at= USA at&t 3g, H(at&t calls H 4g), Lte
from my LT28at, rooted and eating an Ice Cream Sandwich
Also depends if lte is available in your area. Just stating the obvious i guess.

I got it on ebay for 599 the seller is nevr-msrp.
C6502 works properly with wind. But since unlocking the bootloader I have flashed c6503 and found it works better with wind

Well If your feeling adventurous enough go ahead and flash c6506, it would do me no good as wind does not have lte

The LTE is hardware related and not a software compatibility issue. Otherwise they would have made one phone that works everywhere just by flashing a software version.

I would also like to know the answer to this question?
What's Difference Between LT28I & LT28H...?
And Can Flash Firmware OF LT28I ON LT28H...???
There is a hardware difference as the LT28h, also known as the Xperia Ion HSPA, is a GSM/3G phone, where as the LT28i, also known as the Xperia Ion LTE, is a 4G phone, in addition to being a GSM/3G phone.
both are absolutely same hardware exept d LTE capability(Lt 28i) ....so u can very well find out by urself....(Lt 28h has more battery hours coz of bieng "non-LTE"
Sent from my LT28h using xda app-developers app
Lt28i would provide better mobile signals and faster internet data speeds as it supports 4G. Go for that.
mobile signals are not a big problm these days.......nd a 1900 mah battery is seriously lacking a gud backup for the lt28i......i think Lt 28h handles that pretty cool wid all d pros of ION.

Yup, and vice versa. Hell you can even flash the lt28at firmware (at&t's firmware for USA ION).
I have a LT28at ion and have flashed both lt28h and i firmwares without any issues.

I believe there are some different 3G bands between the models.
Check the Sony white papers @ Sony web for the LT28 Ion for the differences
