Hi all,
Had to pick up a Desire eye without having done much research (my Sony Z3 died while travelling).
My Desire eye was bought from Taipei airport, and is marked as a M910x. It lists the lte bands supported as 700, 900 and 1800.
Based on GSMarena and other sources, it seems to suggest more support than what the box does.
So does anyone know with certainty whether:
1. My specific phone only has those 3 bands (strange)
2. Region specific branding, but has more bands.

For what its worth, over the weekend I was in Manila, Philippines, and connected to Smart LTE, which, based on my previous experience, should mainly be 2100mhz LTE, and my phone appeared to connect just fine. So it appears it may have more band support than the box suggests.
For anyone who may be following this thread, the Taiwanese page for the HTC desire eye reports the same bands as GSMarena:
4G LTE：
FDD - band 1( 2100MHz) , band 3 (1800MHz) , band 7 (2600 MHz), band 8 (900MHz), band 28 (700MHz)頻段
TDD - band 38 (2600 MHz),band 39(1900MHz), band 40 (2300 MHz),band 41(2600MHz) 頻段
Not sure why its listed differently on the box.
I decided to call HTC's Taiwanese customer service hotline this afternoon.
It took the girl a few minutes to get the details, but her official response is that the bands listed on their official website is correct, and that the box is only stating the LTE bands that the Taiwanese networks will be launching shortly. i.e. domestic market labelling

In Taiwan the new HTC ONE M9 offers the following LTE Bands which sucks in you travel abroad often. I saw this info at the Taiwan Mobile shop in Taipei. If you travel to America and want to use T-Mobile then you will be missing Band 12 and other bands which keep you from having 4G LTE in the US. The new Galaxy S6 Edge is the better choice if you are a frequent traveler and want wider 4G LTE Band coverage.
LTE FDD 01,03,05,07,08,20,29
LTE TDD 38,40,41
Asian LTE bands have never matched American and vice versa..
P.S. It was even worse with M7 and M8 though..
Overseas Electronics made an unboxing video of a TW version. I have captured the back of the box. I see only 700/900/1800 Mhz LTE support.
But anywhere else FDD：1、3、5、7、8、20、28 頻段.
Can anyone confirm there is only one Asian unlocked version?

The bands are for SEA (south-east asia) version. Details at http://www.htc.com/sea/smartphones/htc-one-m9/
M8 did not support that many bands; so they have different models for different countries.
For those who travel around Asia including China and possibly Europe, the 4G coverage is pretty good. :victory:

Total of 10 Bands for the HTC ONE M9 and a total of 19 for the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge in Taiwan. If one does not travel too often this is not much of a concern but if one travels often and especially between Asia and America then the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge will have the edge over the HTC One M9 because one can use it on T-Mobile's 4G LTE Network in America and get 4G LTE service in Asia as well where this is not possible with the HTC One M9. Not sure why HTC decided to do this. They always manage to find a way to lose a sale.

Believe the 4G bands are provided by SnapDragon chip. There could be other models.
Any idea what is the exact Samsung model that supports 19 bands?
There seems to be many models around as per http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s6_edge-7079.php
SM-G9250 (China, HK), SM-G925A (AT&T), SM-G925F (Global), SM-G925FQ (Turkey), SM-G925I (LATAM, Singapore, India, Australia), SM-G925K (Korea), SM-G925L, SM-G925S (Korea), SM-G925T (T-Mobile).

Those bands actually sick unless you live in America. For those that travel the important bands are still missing for 4G LTE
Will it work with the LTE bands?
The seller on eBay say's it fully works with AT&T and T-Mobile?
HTC 10h (International version) WILL NOT work on US LTE bands
If you go to this page: htc. com / uk / smartphones / htc-10
scroll to the bottom where the specs are and look under "Network" you will see the differences between the radio bands supported by the International/Asia and the America versions of the phone. The International version DOES NOT support all of the 4G LTE bands used by ATT in the US.
This page shows the LTE bands used in the US by major carriers. phonearena. com / news / Cheat-sheet-which-4G-LTE-bands-do-AT-T-Verizon-T-Mobile-and-Sprint-use-in-the-USA_id77933
LTE band 5 is on both models of the phone, and band 5 is used in some very limited areas of the US, (but not enough to make it worth having a regional only phone at this cost, and the newest LTE uses dual-bands so that technology wouldn't work for you either).
If you live in the US, you absolutely want the US model of this phone if you expect 4G LTE and newer technologies to work for you over a wide area.
Hope this helps someone... I got suckering into ordering an International version off Amazon and it would not work on AT&T 4G LTE in my area (band 2).
Better to order the US version directly from HTC.
Does the opposite work? I mean, does the US version work in Europe or not?
I'm asking because the color I want is only available in the US and I live in Europe.

You should check which LTE bands your European carrier is using. Just google it "What LTE band does [your carrier] use in [your country/city]."
The US version supports all LTE bands except 8 (Saudi Arabia) and 32 (no idea where that's used..). en. wikipedia. org / wiki / List_of_LTE_networks

Hello, I have the same problem...How you solved it?
If you load the US unlocked on the international phone, you will pickup some LTE bands. I seem to be able to pickup 4/12, but not 2 with Tmobile

Hi I'd like to know if the US unlocked version of the HTC 10 (that you can order by the official HTC USA site) works on the Italian networks: band 3(1800MHz), 7(2600MHz), 20(800MHz);
so if I buy this phone and I do it to ship from America I can use it in Italy with any networks problem or restriction.
I'm very interested to know this, thank you.

I'm very happy to know this, I think there are also no problems with the 4g/LTE networks in Italy; I have a few questions if you want to answer me:
Why did you buy the HTC 10 USA version? (and not the Italian too)
Where did you buy it?
Which color is it?
Thanks for the reply

m10h will not support 2/4/12 unless you convert to US unlocked. I have m10h and am on US unlocked. I seem to pickup 4/12 in some parts of the country, but have yet to see band 2. I'm also skeptical that I get all of band 4, I'm thinking I only get certain frequencies of Band 4.
So which version should I buy to use on AT&T in California?

Hey guys.
I am from Pakistan, and I am gonna buy a OP3 soon. At first, I thought of buying from China, I changed that decision when I got to know the software was different in that variant (according to a video). I want to buy the North America version, but I wanted to know, will the 4G-LTE work in Pakistan? My carrier is Warid (The company doesn't have 3G but 4G only), and it has 1800MHz FDD-LTE bands, if I'm correct.
Can anybody confirm, that the 4G will work on the device in Pakistan? I'd be really grateful.
Thanks.

Hi everyone. Im wondering if this is possible for pixel 6 pro. Basically my unit is direct from us store which is G8VOU. Now im using it in Malaysia and 4g lte works fine.
Now im wondering if carrier aggregation is possible through root. Right now from what see through netmonster it can do 2ca on the same band(check screenshot). I think its aggregating two towers with the same band, i may be wrong though.
Anyone had any idea how to force enable multi band ca? The local sold phone can go up to 5ca which are mainly band 1, 3, 7 ,8. Thanks in advance.
I would also like to know
Is it not 4G+ an indication of currently using carrier aggregation?
Try to download NPerf app and click on speed test button. It will detect your carrier and mention it's currently on 4G+ or LTE-A
Another proof is below when you check in *#*#4636#*#* . Currently my Yoodo is on band 7 and band 3.
And Digi Malaysia only have 1 band which is Band 7
Digi - Malaysia - Wireless Frequency Bands and Device Compatibility
Digi (Malaysia) uses 2 GSM bands, 1 UMTS band, and 1 LTE band. Find out if your unlocked phone or mobile device will work with Digi (Malaysia)

Yes like is said. Mine is at 2ca indicated that im at TWO bands aggregated. Which is way below whats possible. Let me know if you have something that can help instead of just pointing out facts i already stated in the first post. Thanks.

I sometimes have band 3 and 8 as well. Just never 3 or 4ca at a time. Only up to 2ca max.
The modem decides aggregation.
