The AT&T or Rogers LTE Version of HTC ONE X has HSPA support on AWS&2100
(looks like lots ppl may not know this)
So AT&T one x works on T-Mo 3G network (wow~) Tegra FAIL!
and one more... The AT&T LTE version is originally called One XL (but now they call it X since idk)
Moreover, AT&T version looks like 549.99USD (Rogers version is $629CAD+tax)
It still won't have the 1700 band.

This has been discussed to death. The official HTC Asia page says the AT&T phone (by name) doesn't support AWS for HSPA. The LTE radio does but it won't work for HSPA. Do you have a link to share where someone has shown a Speed Test getting HSPA/HSPA+ speeds on T-Mobile U.S. with either a Rogers or AT&T One X? Until someone posts that this isn't confirmed and based on the published specs it probably won't be.
From HTC Asia:
HSPA/WCDMA:
•ATT: 850/1900/2100 MHz
•Asia/AUS: 850/900/1900/2100 MHz
GSM/GPRS/EDGE:
•850/900/1800/1900 MHz
LTE:
•ATT: B4/B17
•Asia/AUS: 1800/2600 MHz
From the Rogers site:
GSM Bands: 850/900/1800/1900
HSPA Bands: 850/1900/2100
LTE Bands: 700/1700/2100
From the AT&T site:
GSM/GPRS/EDGE - 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
3G/UMTS - 850/1900/2100 MHz
4G LTE - Band 4 and 17
http://www.htc.com/ca/products/htconex-rogers#tech-specs
Network
LTE CAT3 - DL 100 /UL 50
LTE: 700/AWS
WCDMA: 2100/1900/AWS/850
EDGE: 850/900/1800/1900
Clearly says AWS/2100 is on the list, also 850/1900
I'm getting it this coming weekend, so I will try
And some ppl on the XL forum says Rogers has 1700 hspa clearly written on the box,
It could be a software lockdown, Same as i717...
EDIT: Just saying on Rogers site, Nokia Lumia 7100 doesnt have 1700 listed on there either, but after unlocking, it works perfectly on Wind, so idk
HSPA might work base on spec
If you look at the Samsung Galaxy Nexus's spec, the 1700/2100 HSDPA is listed as "3G". I am using the international version with T-mobile and I am getting around 7mbps. This is definitely faster than 3G speed. Looking at the spec for one x, HSDPA 1700/2100 is listed as 3G also just like the Galaxy Nexus. Wouldn't this mean it would work with T-Mobile's so called "4G" HSPA?

The bands supported by the device has **nothing whatsoever** to do with the Tegra SoC, since the vendor uses a discreet modem with the Tegra 3 version of the One X anyway.

If this is true, than the weak signal strength and heavier battery drain are likely to occur just like they did on the G-Note. It'll be interesting to see how (and if) the One XL performs.
AT&T vs International bands
According GSM arena the AT&T version will support 3G 1700/2100 which is what Tmobile uses for its H+ network...so if you unlock the at&t version, it should be able to run on Tmo's "4G" right out the box without any needs to flash radios or what not right?
Here's the link to a comparison: http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4614&idPhone2=4320
Is it possible to flash a t-Mobile modem or tweek the one x to get faster speeds

Hello friend, I too am interested in getting the One X (international 32 Gig version preferred) but would consider AT&T's version. I was able to click around AT&T's website and I could not find where it actually stated 1700/2100 AWS however, it does say this:
"4G speeds delivered by HSPA+ (with enhanced backhaul) or LTE, where available" "4G LTE Band 4 and 17" -
And this:
"3G - UMTS850/1900/2100 MHz"

T Mobile has confirmed the reframing/refarming of 1900 from 2g to 3g but stated it was slow process (slower than Edge? lol).
Really want the One X...

It is a pentaband phone (850/900/1700/1900/2100) but on Rogers site it says only 850/1900/2100,
But after unlock, this phone works on Wind Mobile (same as 3G T-Mobile)

It doesn't work, at least out of the box, on the XL. It uses a different radio though so the international version could behave differently.

You have to be clear though. Out of the box, neither phone is going to get 3G data on an AWS carrier (T-Mobile, Wind). If you guys come up with a hack, people are going to have to root their phones and flash a new radio. A lot of people will be fine with it, some, especially novices, won't. And the hack for the G-Note gets the job done but you lose some signal and battery life in the process. Until it's running on someone's XL (and well) it's a little early to claim victory. I hope it works out for you guys.
T-Mobile AWS needs 1700 AND 2100 bands. It won't work with only one, so if you don't have both, you don't have T-Mobile 3G.
Not only that, if it comes down to simply being a radio flash you NEED S-OFF to flash a radio. An RUU won't work because there is no version of the X that supports T-Mobile frequencies.
I was today That by this summer in my area the iPhone will be able to get 3g and hopefully it's the bands we to make it work on the one x

The iPhone has the same network bands as of the one x. Now we wait on TMO to update.
hopefully t-mobile gets this done by july. I'll be out of Army Basic training and will have money to spend on a International HTC One X beast lol... I currently have AT&T now. I was converted to a Radioshack AT&T employee plan a few months ago which changed my data plan from 2GB to Unlimited data which was freakin amazing even tho i only used between 1.5GB - 3GB of Data. Since i quit Radioshack bcuz im about to ship to boot camp, they gotta convert it back to a consumer plan (3GB data plan :-/) Idk what to do. If i come back from boot camp and ppl report that the AWS refarming rollout is actively in progress, im ditching AT&T and coming back to T-Mobile with a Tegra 3 One X. ( 6Mbits/sec is lightning fast enough for me to support playing Call of Duty on Xbox Live anyway. Ive done it on a T-Mobile Vibrant before.

The only speeds you'll be able to pick up on T-Mobile with the One X will be Edge. Since the One X doesn't have T-Mobiles 3G data bands. Unless you are some on the few lucky cities that has the newly updated T-Mobile towers with the same 3G bands as AT&T.

As far as I've heard there are a few cities in California that have been upgraded there might be a thread on here about I know tmobile plans on having the upgrade completely finished by early 2013, and as for OneXs being compatible some are saying that the OneXL is compatible with T-Mobiles 700/1900 AWS band but it will take some configuring with the radio for it to work.
is this whats causing my problem?
i have the one x international version and i can't get any data..i put the t-mobile APN configuration in and no cigar..would this be whats causing the issue?
Heads up if you are currently using the HTC One X on TMO but are considering switching to Straight Talk.
I just purchased their $45 plan plus paid the $15 for the ATT Micro SIM and am not able to get connected to Straight Talk. As others have mentioned, their CS does not know what they are doing, i.e.: The CS rep told me he needed to transfer me to the correct department and I asked what department that was and his comment was "our Department that handles ATT Micro SIM issues using a Non Straight Talk phone"
So if you are considering this don't cancel your TMO account immediately...
Good luck...oh and by the way, this phone is SWEEEEEEEEET!!!
So even the global one won't get 4g or H speeds on t-mobile? isnt it different from the Att version band wise? I am thinkin about getting this or One s

Nope the global one won't get tmobile speeds cause it only have the upload band for tmobiles 4G and not the download for it to work on tmobile it has to have the 1700/2100 AWS band. And the main difference band wise on the the international version and AT&T XL is that the international lacks a LTE card.
I have the international one x and I am on T-mobile I get like 5 mb which is very good for me

We're talking about Tmobile in the US.
Any one with a ATT or Verizon Htc one tried their T-Mobile sim card and able to get 3g on T-Mobile? Not the refarmed 1900 but AWS 1700 on WCDMA/UMTS. Not LTE either.

According to reports and specs those models don't have WCDMA AWS just like last years model. I can't believe HTC can't release a single GSM model with all the radios like Nexus 5 or iPhone 5s. I don't know what's wrong with them, it will be easier for them only to have one model.
Is there a way to use Verizon HTC ONE with T-MOBILE with data speeds other than EDGE (E)? Is there any other methods like flashing a T-MOBILE radio (don't know even if that is possible). Would any MODS, developer or expert with insight to the hardware provides inputs ?
Thanks and Cheers!!!!
PS - I have seen other threads just cutting short to sell this phone and buy another one, I am trying to see if there is another solution
If I'm correct the reason why the device does not work on T-Mobiles LTE network is because T-Mobile runs there faster network on there 1700mhz band which is only supported on the T-Mobile variant of the HTC One. They have acquired some 700mhz spectrum from AT&T after there botched merger and have been using that spectrum to release some of the stress from the 1700mhz band. I have heard of it working on the the 700mhz spectrum but not the 1700.

If the hardware is compatible - would it be possible to flash T-MOBILE radio onto Verizon ONE?
The hardware is compatible its just that it does not have the compatible radio to work with their LTE/4G band to get data. It will get Edge no problem and the areas that are running on the 700mhz band but that's it.

Will the factory unlocked M8 support everything radio wise that the T-Mobile M8 will? I'm currently able to get one considerably cheaper than a T-Mobile one and just wanted to be sure.
I believe the unlocked is missing the 1700 band that hspa+ runs on. If you're in a reframed 1900 band area then you're okay. Otherwise you lose hspa+

Neither of the unlocked or Dev M8s will give you HSPA on AWS, so you’d have to be in an 850 MHz area. If you got the Dev edition, you’d be limited to 21 Mbps.
For LTE, the unlocked EMEA version won’t work at all and the Asia version will only work in areas where T-Mobile is transmitting on 700 MHz. The Dev edition will at least give you 700 and 1900 MHz, but I think T-Mobile currently has most of their LTE on AWS.
I've been around for several years now, but still very much uneducated about the radios and bands supported.
I have the GSM Dev edition. By reading the info in the last few posts about what bands/etc are supported and what speeds (HSPA, AWS, 4G, LTE) does this mean the Dev version is physically incapable of getting 100% service (edge, aws,...their whole network) on T-Mobile because of a lack of an actual component inside the phone? Or is it not "supported" because the firmware ( I.e....the radio software) is not included?
I guess my next logical question would be since I'm unlocked, s-off and superCID, would it be possible to turn my phone into a virtually identical T-Mobile phone? Or is T-Mobile's version of the M8 not even going to fully work on their network... Areas that haven't been refarmed yet.

This is what my post above was addressing.
The Dev edition is physically incapable of getting 100% service in all of T-Mobile's markets due to lack of hardware, yes. Therefore, it is impossible to turn it into an identical phone from the standpoint of radio compatibility.

The Verizon version is a little different than the T-Mobile version. The Verizon M8 is a little more limited with its 3G/HSPA since it only goes up to 14.4 Mbps vs. 42 Mbps with the two unlocked versions and the T-Mobile version. It has more LTE bands than the T-Mobile version, but at least one person on the Verizon board is having problems connecting to LTE on his Verizon M8 abroad.
Just in case you were referring to the Dev edition when you said “carrier unlocked,” those are different as well. I wouldn’t recommend using anything but the Verizon M8 on Verizon’s network since only the Verizon and Sprint models have CDMA radios and Sprint’s model doesn’t have the LTE radio to use Verizon’s LTE network (or vice-versa).

Are you able to connect to all T-Mobile bands? I want to pickup a used m8 but the T-Mobile variant is $100 more expensive than all the other carrier's versions. Does anyone know if I could pickup a used AT&T/Sprint/Verizon m8 and use it on T-Mobile without sacrificing frequency bands or anything?
Hi,
I know this is a really old thread, but I recently switched over from At&t to T-Mobile and similar questions about radios etc. Doing some internet searches I found Tom's Hardware review of the HTC One M8 (sorry don't have time to find the link), but according to the review the At&t and the US GPE version are the same version. Furthermore, both phones can fully support the AWS band for T-Mobile, however, At&t elected to lock the AWS band for the HSPA+ to refrain customers from unlocking and switching.
I was getting spotty service around my house, and just installed the T-Mobile radio and ROM on to my At&t M8. I will report on the performance once I have some time with the new set up.

How is this working for you? I have a vzw m8 and I'm over on T-Mobile, now mostly everything works,except for 4glte, it will work and then cut off after a bit, or if I travel between towers I loose connection and it won't try to find another tower, band or any other... So I get most out of this, just not all. And I was wondering which radio I used... Last time I tried a T-Mobile radio, I lost all connectivity. Btw I'm soff and supCID

Haha I know the pains of using a vzw device on gsm networks I had a LG g2 Verizon wireless and ran it on t-mobile I had to sell it had to reboot the radio about twice a week as well as take out SIM card
Helpful article
I found http://www.anandtech.com/show/7893/the-htc-one-m8-review very helpful to understanding the M8 radios.
Hey my phone is doing great! I even managed to pick up some better HSPA+ around the house - although I can't confirm if it is on the AWS band.
In terms of flashing the radio on the Verizon M8, I am highly doubtful that it will produce any valuable results. The CDMA version of HTC's always differs significantly from their GSM counterparts. If you look at the supported bands for the Verizon M8, there is no support for the T-Mobile UTMS AWS band - which is probably why you are dropping signal while switching towers.
