I plan on getting a pay as you go sim card when i go to the states but I'm reading conflicting info regarding if my uk desire HD will work in USA on 3g data as different frequency.
Although apparently some carriers in USA use same as UK frequency for 3g data.
Can anyone clear this up?
Thanks in advance

We use band 1900 in the states. Europe uses 2100. I do not think you will get anything other than edge.

Tmo uses 1700/2100 for 3g, but both must be supported for it to work. They are also ref arming their 1900mhz for 3g but the euro dhd doesn't have the bands for it. Only 2g
Hi All,
I am using a N7105 on Bell Canada network. Seem my phone only max. on HSPA+ not LTE. Base on I am reading some information from internet. Bell is using 1700/2100/2600 Mhz for LTE. My phone only able pick up LTE 800/1800/2600 Mhz. My question is shouldn't my phone work on Bell LTE network on 2600 Mhz?? Also does anyone out there use N7105 and able to use LTE on Rogers/Bell/Telus???
Thanks
PC
wow really no one use N7105 in Canada???
It will work but generally performance would be poor inside buildings or in areas of interference, due to having only one compatible band instead of two.

I have tried even outside on the street still not getting LTE:crying:
7105 is international, international usually mean European, Australia etc, ie NOT north American region. They will have carrier specific versions for bell, telus, robbers, wind etc

This is stupid they don't follow the other country
So which model name/number is the Canadian Bell one? I'm thinking of buying one in Calgary, but I wanted to monitor ROM development before I got one, so which forum should I follow for the Canadian one? I just guessed it was an N7105, but apparently it's not!
Edit: Nevermind, found it on Wikipedia. It's SGH-i317M and seems roughly same as AT&T, I guess I'll go to that forum!
Although I don't know anyone that has a N7105 on LTE in Canada, I've seen people use LTE with a I9305 (with the same LTE bands as the N7105) in Vancouver at least, so technically your phone should work. It may be that your area doesn't have the 2600Mhz spectrum.

Ah so i called Bell they told me they have 2600 Mhz but you never know. Cause Bell tech. support sucks
N7105 supports 2600 mhz radio frequency, but a respective modem file need to be flashed for it to work on LTE network.
I had Note LTE i717 which supported 1700mhz lte of Rogers, and yes it worked with wind and T-mobile network using 1700 mhz frequency only after flashing tmobile modem.

Ya i am using the Bell LTE SIM
Lte will not work out of box, unless some developer gets you modem file which can make your N7105 to recognize 2600mhz as Bell LTE.

Yeah me too hate .....I was in long dilemma to buy N7105 , but when I found this then i just bought it outright from Rogers.
Also to let you know that even after flashing 2600mhz to work as lte radio, you will only get lte in 2600mhz lte available areas only, bcoz lte in NA fluctuates many frequencies from 700/1700/1900/2100/2600.
Good luck and enjoy your Note2.

I just bought a N7105 international version from Hong Kong and yes it work on Rogers here in Vancouver. Make sure you get a LTE compatible SIM card. My old SIM card did not compatible with LTE so I only got H+ or 3G. Now I changed and I am on 4G.
The reception is only 2 bars most of the time though. Sometime I got 4 bars. I tried data speed using Speedtest.net and still got at max 52Mbps DOWN and 34Mbps UP even I am at 2 bars so I guess it isn't too bad.

Hey rcyh same here i got my phone in HK..... I heard a lot people able to use 2600 Mhz on Rogers only ... Do you have any friend is using Bell and you can give it a try and see u are getting LTE there?
Woooooo comfirmed N7105 does work great with Rogers :fingers-crossed: I am getting 47Mbps down and 10Mbps up with 2 bar signal :angel:...... I think Bell just locked the LTE 2600Mhz band to public

you go the N7105 from where? Wind's SGH-T889V? Did you do anything (unlock/root/flash radio/other) to get LTE on Rogers?
i bought a phone recently model samsung galaxy s duos GT-S7562 FROM INDIA. UNFORTUNATELY IT SUPPORTS ONLY 900/2100 MHZ 3G CONNECTIVITY IN MY AREA WHERE WE HAVE ONLY 850MHZ 3G CONECTIVITY AVAILABLE . i wonder if there is any means through which i can have access to 850mhz 3g network using the same phone.
I would love to know this as well.. Is there a way to change 3G bands on these phones ?
EDIT : I found that there is a 850/2100 variant which known as the GT-S7562L.
Firmware for this can be found at http://www.hotfile.com/dl/185519733/98e5342/S7562LVJALK1_S7562LZTOALK1_ZTO.zip.html .
Would flashing my phone with this firmware change the 3G bands to 850/2100 ?
How likely is it to brick my phone ?
Thx guys.. hope someone can help...
I'd like to know this too

Hello all the dev, gurus and forum members!!
Goodday from Vaiobuddy....
I have a confusion regarding Note 2 variants..
In India, GT-N7100 is available everywhere which is GSM...
I am looking to buy CDMA version of Note II, but I dont know which version supports CDMA for all CDMA mobile networks providers.
Please can somebody guide me to a correct CDMA VERSION of this phone and in which country it is available, so that I can get it from there for my personal use with indian cdma service providers.
Cheers to all !!!

These days most of the phone come with both gsm and cdma radio because of 3g.
But I am not sure if you can actually use cdma sim as it is wcdma and I think there would be a difference.
And in India we have an easy portability service so you can transfer to a gsm network.
If it's reliance or tata then it's a different issue buy docomo is a available in gsm as well isn't it?

Thanks mate,
But mine is a corporate connection, thus I dont have an option of migration. Wcdma is wide band cdma and it is different technology than cdma.

Verizon (schi-605) and Sprint (SPH-L900) have CDMA versions of the Note2. I think there is a Chinese CDMA version too, don't know the model number. The Sprint version has an embedded (a chip) sim for LTE the Verizon one has a Sim port. They both have an individual forum on XDA so you can probably find specific info there.

Sorry, but it's not going to work with this phone.
Orange Dominicana uses the 900 band frequency for 3g (WCDMA). On this phone that band is locked for being used with 2g (GSM). That's why you're getting Edge.
Unfortunately, the T-Mobile version of this phone also locked the 900 band for GSM. That means the NV data hack won't work for you either.
Sorry. Hope that explains it, and I hope they at least launch LTE service on a compatible band for you.
