Make Inc2 have same radios as IncS? - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

Hello, so it seems the Incredible 2 can not access the 1900 HSPDA frequency, even though it can access the 1900 GSM frequency so I am unable to get on the T-mobile HSPA+ network. However, the Incredible S can access these frequencies. Is there any way to use the same radios as the incredible S on the Incredible 2 to possibly get it to work?

So I know that we only get HSPA+ but at&t has 4g lte is it possible for this phone to get that signal by rooting it anyone heard anything about this or is this impossible

As far as I know, nope. The Tegra 2 doesn't support it.
If I were to unlock this phone could I get 4g speeds from a diffrent network?

According to GSMArena, the i927 utilizes the following frequencies:
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
I'd say that makes it a definite 'no' on the 4g...

What will happen if I use a Non-AT&T ONE-X on AT&T?

I am interested in the ONE-X, but only i fI have the one with the Tegra 3 processors. I'd like that because they are the same as my Asus TF201. My question is can I get a GSM ONE-X to work with AT&T's network? I know it won't be LTE, but would it at least work on the H+ network? I have the Inspire 4G now and I believe h+ will be good enough if i can get it.

Yeah you will as long as your in a good ATT coverage area.
I am in NY and am getting about 6-10mbps download speeds.

So just to clarify, are you getting 3g, 3.5g, or 4g? (and arent 4g/lte the same thing for that matter?)

No I dont think 4g and LTE are the same.
I am getting HSPA+ speeds using ATT. ATT considers HSPA+ to be 4G.
LTE i believe is completely different than 4g.
What AT&T and T-Mobile (and Verizon for that matter) refer to as 4G isn't technically 4G. Legally by ITU definitions only LTE, WiMax2, etc. are truly "4G" technologies.
That said, the Intl 1X supports all the frequencies necessary to operate on AT&T other than LTE (for that you need the neutered dual core US version). All I did last night was create a new APN in Network Settings for broadband speeds (I know it has an AT&T APN in there by default but I wanted to ensure the settings were correct).
I followed this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69lHUIkEOIE

Is the international GS3/quad core compatible with T-Mobile?

I assume the quad core gs3 is GSM? Will it work with T-Mobile 4G HSPA+? My friend is on T-Mobile and is planning to get the gs3 off contact. He wanted me to find out if T-Mobile 4G will work with the quad core version or should he just buy the T-Mobile version instead.

It will work but you will be stuck on Edge.
I'd check what frequencies it has. I'm using a T-Mobile version on at&t and get 4g data. If the international version has T-Mobile's frequencies then it should work.

Would this work?
Tmobile uses Band (frequency): 850 MHz;900 MHz;1800 MHz;1900 MHz;UMTS: Band I (2100);UMTS: Band IV (AWS);UMTS: Band V (850)
Device Additional Information tab on that site says "Service 900, 1800, 1900, 850, 3g 2100"
But at the top of the page it says "Band:GSM 850/900/1800/1900"
T-Mobile UMTS/HSPA+ (3G/4G) mostly runs off 1700/2100 and the international model i9300 does not support the frequency we use. The quad band GSM/EDGE will work (and therefore voice/text and slow internets).
AT&T uses a more normal 850/1900 for everything but LTE, making them more "Normal" along with our Canadian neighbors.
T-Mobile is weird :-o.
If you've got access to any make of GSM based + unlocked iPhone, stick your T-Mobile SIM in it and see what speed you can get. An unlocked AT&T phone may work for testing also. We're supposed to be getting better coverage in this kinda frequency range for that but it will likely be a long time before we get sufficient coverage to enjoy a i9300.
Well put. It will be a long time before we see decent coverage for AT&T/UK phones.

Frequency Concern

Hi everyone,
I am planning to buy an international version of galaxy nexus (i don't know if there is another version or not) to use in America, probably Tmobile. I know that the galaxy nexus uses 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100 MHz as its working frequency. Coincidentally, the 3G and 4G networks of Tmobile also operate on the same range (1700/2100). Does that mean I can use 3G or even 4G network on Tmobile? or I still have to buy a phone from tmobile in order to use the high speed network?
Anyone is using galaxy nexus on Tmobile now?
Any help is greatly appreciated!!
Thanks everyone!

The GSM version does not have an LTE radio, so 4G isn't possible.
I use the GSM from the Google store on tmo. I am in the Philly area and I get HSPA+ or 4G if you go by tmo.

HSPA+ is what tmobile calls 4g. They don't use LTE. So, the Google/International version will get 4g from tmobile.

You will get full HSPA+ on any GSM network in the USA. Not LTE.

It will "work", but I'm not sure how well. You will for sure get basic voice and text, as well as 2g data, and I think ATT and T-mobile share one LTE band, so if the LTE where you are is on that band, you should get that as well. However, I think their HSPA+ bands are different as well as their 3g bands, so you might not be able to get those. Someone may correct me though, as I'm new to T-mobile (and GSM) so I may be wrong on the 3g and HSPA+ part.
Yes, it will work. T-Mobile M8 will work on AT&T network for 2G, 3G, 4G, and LTE. T-Mobile M8 and AT&T M8 are the same phone, except the T-Mobile M8 has more bands to support T-Mobile's network.
This is AFAIK, if I am incorrect, someone please correct me.

In short: 3G will work, but since AT&T’s 3G network is limited to 21 Mbps, you will only get half of the potential speed. 4G will mostly work, but the T-Mobile version does not have the radio/antenna for AT&T’s 1900 MHz network, meaning you can only get 700 MHz and AWS. 700 MHz 4G should be nationwide, though. See the deals below.

Just to be clear, you want to take a T-Mobile M8 and use it on AT&T, correct? I’m assuming this is the case since you are in the T-Mobile M8 forum.

You’re close, but the T-Mobile version had fewer LTE bands. Just FYI, 4G is LTE (bad marketing not withstanding). Here are the frequencies of the T-Mobile and AT&T M8s:
2G/2.5G - GSM/GPRS/EDGE:
850/900/1800/1900 MHz
3G - WCDMA:
AT&T: 850/1900/2100 MHz with HSPA+ up to 21 Mbps
TMUS: 850/AWS/1900/2100 MHz with HSPA+ up to 42 Mbps
4G - LTE:
AT&T: 700/850/AWS/1800/1900/2600 MHz
TMUS: 700/AWS MHz

Note that 4G on AWS and 1900 varies depending on the market, so you need to find out if they offer it on those frequencies in your area. You should get 700 MHz everywhere.

Hi... sorry to drag this back up but looking at purchasing a T-Mobile M8 on Craigslist and using it on AT&T.
If I sim unlock the phone, install say a stock GPe ROM and the WWE radio... it should unlock all the LTE bands for use on AT&T? And the rest of the world, correct?
Just trying to confirm before I buy this.
Thanks guys!

It should work, I have an unlocked T-Mobile m8, flashed cm11 and still work on att

Everything is working pretty good. At least in my area. (San Diego)
