[Q] Captivate Glide on T Mobile

will Captivate Glide unlocked work on t mobile network with 3g or 4g?

Depends on the radio frequencies. I don't belive this will work but I could be wrong.

I'm not up on which carrier uses which frequencies, maybe someone can comment? 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...
HTH
L4T

No.only 2g

How to tell which version of the Arc I have?

Hi guys,
My mate gave me his Arc recently cause the digitizer is screwed, so I have ordered a new screen and digitizer, but when I get the screen fixed I will want to flash a custom ROM and give the phone to my sister to replace her aging Optimus one. I am not sure what version of the Arc I have though and my mate is useless.
What is the best way to tell which version I actually have. I don't want to screw up this phone and I have not worked on a Sony Ericsson mobile before. Only HTC and Samsung and a bit on Motorola.

Go to setting and at the bottom at "about phone"
Under Model info
Arc S is LT18
Arc is LT15
Under the battery too
EDIT: most ROM will work on both Arc and Arc S

LT15i - you have the first Arc (international)
a is American
the letter is just meaning different frequency bands
"
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 900 / 2100 - LT15i
HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100 / 800 - LT15a
"

Thanks for the help people!!! Now to find a ROM which is as close to AOSP as possible with everything working!!! Might try CM9 on it when the screen arrives.

JJ's Hybrid ROM, is rather stripped back and very nice

Also depends if lte is available in your area. Just stating the obvious i guess.

Hey guys I'm sorry if this has been asked before but I was wondering if my Canadian arc lt15a is usable in Italy (calls. Data. 3g?). I'd assume Vodafone. Thank you very much!

LT15a uses the following bands:
UMTS HSPA 800 (Band VI), 850 (Band V), 1900 (Band II), 2100
(Band I)
GSM GPRS/EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900
check your carrier bands, else, I think you can flash Lt15i ftf and work properly.
Though I think it will work normal

Should be usable if it's not carrier locked.
