Hi guys, i recently moved to the US. Got a T mobile sim to use on my E988 which i used to use in India. Here 2g network is fine but am not able to get a 4G LTE connection on phone. Am running the VUPMP G3 ROM, all good but i just can't live on 2G network.
Can i flash an e980 baseband on e988 or something like that. Please advice.

I'm don't think the E988 has the proper bands to support T-Mobile 3G or LTE. T-Mobile has their 3G on the 1700 band (AWS) and the1900 band. T-mobile's LTE is on the 1700 band (AWS). Your phone doesn't doesn't have the 1700 or the 1900 band.

Depends on where you are. You will get 3g only im "refarmed" T-Mobile areas because the phone doesnt support the 3g bands used in some older T-Mobile towers. You should get LTE anywhere where it is available. Check coverage maps to be sure you have LTE service in your area.

You will get HSDPA but no LTE.
Rogers and Bell LTE operates on 1700/2100 MHz AWS and N7105 has 700/2100 MHz radio.

Thats where its confusing...online on rogers site they say lte is running 2100 and 2600 and since the n7105 runs 700 and 2100 then I can get lte right? Are you sure that rogers and bell are running lte at 1700 2100? And also if n7105 has 2100 then it should be able to run lte.

It will work but not well in areas of low coverage or inside buildings. Normally the phone will switch bands depending on the situation to get the best signal. But if your phone has only 1 of the 2 bands available, it will not be able to choose optimally the best band so performance will suffer unless you are right under the cell tower.

Wikipedia list it as MetroPCS. Aren't they lte? Is lte radio in ours notes2 already active?

I think this is an lte network probably metropcs.if the phone is forced on hspa only or 2g only then the network is gone so thats must be lte on metro pcs.but why the phone cant see sprint and verizon lte networks?
hey guys was wondering if their is a international version of this phone? i know there is a korean version but i heard the korean version doesnt have the radio frequencies to pick h+ or 3g here in USA att or tmo.. i think i read it on engadget
The E973 is pentaband and will pickup almost all 3G frequencies anywhere, including the USA. The problem is not with 3G, but rather LTE.

Ok thanks. I've been wanting to get this phone but wasnt sure and don't want to get the USA version... so u think the best bet for me is that one?

Yeah you should be fine for 3G pretty much everywhere, the E973 supports these frequencies:
3G Network UMTS/HSPA 850 / 900 / 1800/ 1900/ 2100
4G Network AWS 700 / 1700
For a full list of frequencies world wide with all the carriers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_country_code
So I'm thinking about getting an unlocked note 8.0 from Rogers and the specs are
2G- GSM 850/900/1800/1900
3G- HSPA 850/1900/2100
4G- LTE 1700/2100
Will I get 3G / 4G with Tmobile in USA Las Vegas Nevada?
I'm in a refarmed area so the 1900 3G will work & I'm pretty sure the 4G 1700/ 2100 Will work but the store is saying it won't so I'm a little confused. Your help would be much appreciated. ..

I believe TMo's LTE band is 1700 so I'm not sure why it wouldn't work... As you pointed out, 1900 was used for hspa+
Good luck.

I forgot to mention , im using t-mobile here in NYC about 15Mbs dwn 5Mbs up
Yeah Tmobile's 4G is 1700/2100 & refarmed 1900 for 3G but didn't know if it's the same frequencies for Rogers 1700/ 2100. Does anyone know if the same frequencies would be the same worldwide?
