It will work for calls and data but data will be 2G. AT&T uses 850/1900 frequencies for 3G and 3.5G and the E975 you found only supports 2100. So, to answer your question, 3G will simply not work.

[Q] Which version phone to get? International or unlocked T-Mobile?

Hi,
I've been reading these forums for a few weeks in anticipation of getting a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and am still confused(especially with the news about each version of the phone being region-locked).
My intention is to use the phone here in the United States on T-Mobile and also in Philippines(via a local SIM card purchased there). I've heard that the International version(N9005) only supports 2G(Edge) on T-Mobile here in the United States. Does that version support all bands(2G, 3G, 4G, 4G LTE, etc.) in Philippines?
Does anyone know if the T-Mobile unlocked version of the phone will also support the same bands used in Philippines when I take it there?
Because it seems in my case it might be better to get the T-Mobile unlocked version of the phone so I could possibly still use it in Philippines at their maximum available speed in addition to being able to use the maximum speeds on T-Mobile's network here in the U.S.
Also, are there any specific pros and cons with each of the two versions of the phone?
Any info would be very appreciated.

Here's what I know about Philippines (source):
2G capabilities GSM 900, GSM 1800
3G capabilities UMTS 850, UMTS 2100
4G capabilities LTE 850, LTE 1800, LTE 2100

[Info from your link]
2G capabilities GSM 900, GSM 1800
3G capabilities UMTS 850, UMTS 2100
4G capabilities LTE 850, LTE 1800, LTE 2100
Thank you for your response and the helpful link. It looks like both the International(N9005) and T-Mobile unlocked versions of the phone will support both of the 2G and 3G bands. For the 4g band, the respective phone covers the following Philippines 4g bands:
International(N9005) version: LTE 1800, 2100
unlocked T-Mobile version: LTE 2100
What I'm wondering is if it will be possible to use the unlocked T-Mobile version of the Note 3 in Philippines using a local sim purchased there? If so, then it seems like it will be more beneficial to purchase that version of the phone since it will allow me faster speeds(4g) while here in the United States while also allowing me to use their LTE2100 band for 4g speeds.
Thanks for any insight you can provide me.

Definitely T-Mobile version unlocked.
Not just it has penta-HSPA, but you can use wifi calling with T-Mobile SIM attached to keep using your US number under wifi mode (and save you from roaming).

Do you guys know, if the unlocked t mobile version will allow us to use it with local SIM card when we are travelling oversea?

Using AT&T G3 in South Korea(LTE band & frequency question)

Hello, everyone.
So, I have a AT&T G3 with me and planning to go to South Korea and use Korea cellular carrier while I am staying there. With this, I have a question regarding whether my G3 will have LTE signal in South Korea
*(Information that I am going to write below is from both gsmarena and wikipedia)
For AT&T G3, its LTE band supports LTE 700 / 850 / 1700 / 1800 / 1900 / 2100 / 2600
The cellular company that I am planing to use is SK telecom and they support LTE band 1, 3, 5 and frequency of 850, 1800, 2100
(I will attach the screenshots of those information with this post)
With this information, would I able to use full LTE with my G3 while I am in Korea?
Appreciate your comments.

Its kinda hard to say. I thought there using lte-a
But your maybe lucky and 4g or lower but i wouldnt count on it.
It all depends on the bands. It doesnt mean because you 2100mhz to, that they use the same band to.
Just go over there sell yours if it doesnt work and buy a local g3

Can anyone make sense of this conversation I had with u.s. cellular?

Hello. Does the LG K8 prepaid phone come unlocked? domestically or internationally or both or none? Thanks.
The that device is unlocked but it isn't a world phone and it can only be used in the United States. ^Andria
Hi thanks for that reply. But in saying that if it is unlocked and it is used overseas on a 2g or 3g or 4g band that the phone supports it should work?
It's unlocked for use with another U.S. service provider but it can't be used abroad because it doesn't have world phone capability. ^Andria
What I can't figure out is does she mean its domestically unlocked but internationally locked? ( that wouldn't make sense would it?)
Or is she clueless or trying to bs me in how I said about the frequencies?
Lol.

She means it doesnt have the bands that support overseas countries.

From gsmarena lg k8 bands:

4G bands LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800)
In my country we have:

So it should work right?

It should

LG G4 US991 Not working for International carriers in India.

Hello Guys, i purchased a unlocked version of LG G4 uS991 model in US hoping that mobile will work for international bands. Per specification LTE Bands 2/4/5/12/13/17/25, CDMA 800, 1900 MHz, WCDMA 850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz, GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz* is supported and 1800MHZ is supported for any carrier in India. I only face issue with the Mobile Internet, it does not detect APN settings, or anything & am able to call, receive SMS.
I tried searching for rooting, unlock bootloader In this forum but no luck for LG g4 us911 model.
Appreciate your help in providing me the required links, suggestion to bring back the power of G4.
Thanks, Rithick
