VoLTE on T-Mobile LG G3? - T-Mobile LG G3

Anyone tried this:
Thanks Cablespider

There was a discussion about it some time ago. It looks like a no-go at this point in time.

Wasn't it turned on nationwide by T-Mobile like last week? If so, it should work on the G3.

The G3 is not on the list of supported T-Mobile devices.
Currently, it's only:
LG G Flex
Samsung Galaxy Light
Samsung Galaxy Note 3

OK, thanks. It doesn't help me though. I was hoping a GSM based carrier brings it (TMobile or AT&T) but it seems that's not the case.

International Note 2 or AT&T Note 2?

I have a galaxy s 3 but am getting ready to buy a Note 2 off contract. Since there the same hardware and same price should I go with INT version for more developer support?

I guess if you don't need LTE. The H+ N7100 one is the only one of the international ones with a lot of support. Most the International LTE guys are using AT&T roms it seems. Last time I was in the N7105 section of the international forums, there wasn't a whole lot going on.
Get the at&t version. Since the phones are the same any new update the international lte one gets we can port over easy!!!!

[Q] Anybody know if T-Mobile HD Voice works on Note II?

As mentioned in title there is a new feature out that can be read about here > HD Voice News
I'm wondering if anyone knows whether it works for Note II as well. They only list 3 phones on the story, however it doesn't explicitly exclude other phones. Just curious.
I was wondering that myself, my coworker had me call his friend that was on a Nexus 4 and the call seemed to be very clear, but I couldn't tell whether it was "HD Voice" or not since there is no indication of it on either of our phones.
We have the required chip, but I don't think the required settings in the firmware are active.

Did some research found this quote "The new SKU will apparently launch before the network goes live with the LTE radios disabled, but once the towers are up and delivering the juice T-Mobile will issue a software upgrade to enable them. Those who bought the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 may not need a new phone, though, as that phone did come with the dormant LTE radios during its first run. We imagine T-Mobile will issue a similar software upgrade for it":laugh:

Ok, but that is talking about lte radio, not the hd voice chip.

I work for t-mo
HD Voice only works, at least for now, on the:
- HTC one S,
-Nokia Lumia 810,
-GS3
GN2 is yet to be confirmed but what we do know is that it only works between T-MO phones and it HAS to be amongst these 3. ****FOR NOW AT LEAST****

If the GS3 can do it then we can do it. It just needs a patch for the firmware to use it. Which will probably come out when we have our LTE radios turned on.
What does it have to do with LTE getting switched on. Current GS3 doesnt even have an LTE radio.

Read the press release again. Current GS3 owners got jipped. T-Mobile is re-releasing the GS3 with an LTE radio.

It doesn't directly but when they patch our phone to turn on LTE they will probably enable hd voice also. Radio has nothing to do with HD voice. HD voice is dependent on the sound codec on our phone, but it makes sense to do it when you are already patching the system.
I expect the exynos security patch and maybe even 4.2 before LTE.

Well I expect LTE very soon. What would be the point of turning on LTE in Vegas if you have no phones that support it. They plan to do it in the next couple of weeks.

Well I can be the optimist and you can be the pessimist. I don't see the point of rolling out two or three software updates in a one year when they can address it all in one big update. The international note 2 doesn't even have 4.2 yet. I bet we see 412 with HD Voice and LTE radio enabled first.
Yup - we'll see. Btw, battery life might take a hit if the LTE radio is switched on. We might not want it on too soon.

My friend has an AT&T Note 2 in an LTE market and he still gets about 16 hours of regular use. I get about 16 - 18 with regular use so we will see. LTE radios have gotten better at using batteries. I remember that the first killed batteries like they were going out of style.
The other piece I wondering about is what happens when the LTE radio is activated in a non-LTE market. Does it go searching for signal in some way like the regular cell radio in a poor signal area. That is murder on the battery.

Good question. I am sure they will put a toggle to turn it on and off. How does the Note2 LTE and GS3 LTE handle it, I wonder.

LG-LS980 shows up at FCC, tri-band LTE LG Optimus G Sprint variant???

Here's an interesting report, a new LG model showed up at the FCC, the LS-980, first tri-band LTE phone with Sprint frequencies to be approved by the FCC, is this going to be a new LG Optimus G coming to Sprint?
Link: http://www.phonescoop.com/articles/article.php?a=12696
The FCC approved the LG LS-980. The phone supports all three frequency bands Sprint plans to use for LTE in the coming years. It's the first such phone to gain the FCC's approval, although the company Sprint currently uses the 1900 band (band 25) for LTE, but in the coming year will start deploying LTE in the 800 and 2500 bands the company acquired from Nextel and Clearwire, respectively. FCC documents show that the LG LS-980 also supports CDMA, as well as GSM and WCDMA for global roaming. NFC is also included. The FCC approved a potentially related VS-980 phone with Verizon frequency bands the day before.

A smartphone bearing the model number LG LS980 has just passed through the FCC, and it's a dead ringer for a G Pro destined for Big Yellow. Not only does its model number jive with the other carrier-specific incarnations of LG's device, but it packs support for Now Network-friendly CDMA and LTE over band 25, alongside the usual GSM radio. There's no telling when the Now Network will start offering the phone, but federal approval means it's clear to arrive when LG pleases.

I'm contemplating on purchasing this but I'm unsure of how well the development for this device will be. But for Triband it'll be AWESOME! We'll see what the specs are before I decide, though.
Yeah I will buy this device if there is enough development following. The weird thing is I feel that my lgog is better than any HTC phone I've ever had and its much better looking than anything out there. I absolutely hate the galaxy phones. Wish more people felt like me so we would have a bigger dev field. Thanks to those that do!

After purchasing this phone, I think I may stick to LG. I just read an article on flipbook that they are coming out with a G branded Tablet, Hub, and TVs. The G2 looks promising, and the phone above sounds promising. The article also stated that LG smartphones did very well this year, better than any other. IMO the G was the sleeper of 2012/13 thus far. After using this phone I'd def buy future G series phones.
If this does end up being the G2, it will be my next phone. My wife just upgraded to the Optimus G from an Optimus S and I am very impressed with her phone. I'm still rocking the OG EVO just waiting for a worthy upgrade that supported triband LTE. It looks like this phone will fit the bill!

Went from the LG Optimus S for 2 years then to the Galaxy Nexus for 2 months because I saw the new OG. Almost a year with my baby. If this truly is the G2 then this will be my next phone.
They say its the g pro not g2

Yes the LG G2 will support all 3 Sprint bands, 1900,800, and Clearwires spectrum I believe its 2500 band

YES. EXCLUSIVELY TO SOUTH KOREA :laugh: Do not expect for 805 version to come abroad...
and no the LTE radios won't work in the US......
Edit - Actually I am not 100% sure the radios won't work in the US. Everything I've read seems to indicate it is only for Korea, but most articles are also focusing on the new LTE-A radio. I haven't seen anything to indicate what other radios are going to be included.
When can we buy one? It will work down here.
The S5 lte-a will work on at&t so I assume the g3 will.

Might need to return this AT&T G3 if this version becomes accessible and has AT&T LTE bands. It's a shame there isn't more information on it

well. this kinda sucks. I just bought the international version less than 1 month ago.
oh well. if It ever came to the local imported market here I will trade. because I do not think this will become the international version any time soon. but who knows.
I will hold out for the 805...we all knew it was coming lol.
801 g3 isnt even out yet here in canada so i can wait awhile longer.
