[Q] Will this work with T-Mo?
I've recently been debating a switch to Sprint so I could get an Evo. However, the Desire HD has stolen my, well, desire.
I'm wondering if this will work on T-Mo though. Here's what I got from the HD product page on htc.com:
* HSPA/WCDMA: 900/2100 MHz
* GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
According to wiki, T-mo "uses the GSM/GPRS/EDGE 1900 MHz frequency-band" and "1700/2100 MHz AWS Band for its 3G network."
So, forgive me for being a dumbass when it comes to network stuff. I see they match on 1900 GSM and 2100 HSPA. That means it'll work, right?
Also, HSPA+ isn't another band is it? I know the processor in the HD is HSPA+ capable.
Super excited about this phone. I just hope it'll work with my current service.

NM. Just figured it all out. It won't work.
Mods you can delete this.

it will work. t-mobile work with HSDA 2100 only, the phone and all the 3g phones support it, so it will work fine, BTW, if you will go to tnt that work at 850/2100 HSDPA - then you will no always get full 3G.

Release date - october??
I heard that release date will be - OCTOBER?
great...
Somebody knows the price in Europe?
http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_announces_froyopowered_desire_hd_and_desire_z-news-1937.php

Play.com is taking pre-orders for the Humble price of £459.99..Due for release on the 13th of October..

Unlike Expansys who are taking it for £499.99...
I always wondered does anyone still buy from Expansys any more. They thoroughly abuse their leading position, I think they are going to lose it (or have lost it already?) very soon.
Modaco is also selling it for a reasonably good price considering the extras.
http://android.modaco.com/content/a...now-available-to-pre-order-from-superetrader/

The last time I bought a phone to Expansive, my Blackstone when it came to streets, they were selling it a bit cheaper than MRSP price and the same to the HD2...
But now, they are becoming a lot greedy and are selling phones at the same MRSP prices...
By the way, does anyone knows if there's going to be a page on the wiki for the best selling prices of the Desire HD??

SLCD, has been confirmd by some website.

€549,- NEtherlands
http://www.pdashop.nl/product/10757...ntpageitem1&utm_campaign=frontpageproductinfo

According to a source, the specs of the device found in the official PDF in HTCLON it appears to be an LCD, while on the Desire Z they did mention it's SLCD.
Which website confirmed it's an SLCD?

Play.com £469.99 due to release 11th October. Bought sgs for £400 will have to get on contract, My contract is coming to end in Oct hopefully will be available to T-Mobile by then. I hate Vodafone, terrible customer services.
Anyone know which network will be getting it first?

Yep. It is just an LCD instead of SLCD. You can easily notice this in some videos available in youtube. A let down imho.
EDIT: Ooops! This video says super LCD so SLCD? Let's wait and see.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovTgnlASGAg

6th of October on clove uk, i get my pre order now.

According to GSMArena and HTC.com, it's a TFT 16M Colors display. Not AMOLED/SLCD or any other ****...

According the HTC Global Communications Director it's SLCD.

Release Information:
"Beginning June 20th, the Samsung GALAXY S III will be available through leading Canadian wireless carriers and authorized national retailers." (Source)
It'll be carried by the following carriers: WIND Mobile, Videotron, SaskTel, Virgin Mobile, Bell, Rogers, and TELUS, as well as the following retailers: GLENTEL, Best Buy, and Future Shop. (Source)

Bell also has a sign up page for the GS3. They too are getting the lte version.
I'll wait and see how development is for the bell version. If international roms are compatible, sans radio, I might get it, even though lte coverage here is f*** all, or I might just get the international version regardless.
Can't wait to play with one when they hit Canadian stores.

Knowing how Canadian variants are never compatible/has a tiny dev community, I simply have decided to buy the international version instead.

As far as I know, unless the Canadian version is the international, it usually coincides with it's American counterpart. Thus, I have a lot of ROMs I can flash to my Rogers Captivate, because the AT&T Captivate has a lot of ROMs as well.
But you can't go wrong with the international version. I personally don't mind getting the S4 chip in lieu of the Exynos, because I'm upgrading from my Cappy, so the increase in performance will be substantial regardless of whether the Exynos outperforms the S4 or not.
Plus I want to experience LTE. I have 6 GBs of LTE data that my non-LTE phone hasn't been able to make use of.

Damn. The HST is killing the price for the S3. I'm in Vancouver. I might have to settle with getting it at mobileDNA in Richmond. Cash, no tax.

June 20th?? First Day of Summer!!!
Samsung did say in time for the summer at their London Event.
Samsung’s Galaxy S III is one of the most anticipated Android devices ever made. It’s coming to Canada on basically every carrier ”this Summer,” TELUS, Bell, WIND, Videotron, SaskTel, Mobilicity, Virgin Mobile and Rogers. We reported last week that Samsung will start a Canadian trek on May 30th to give employees and retail outlets the “Galaxy S III interactive training sessions.”
We’ve been hearing several launch dates, such as the June 20th date that’s listed in the above screenshot. The first day of Summer is June 20th and would ever so smoothly fall in line with what Samsung’s official press release quoted “in time for the summer.” Future Shop and Best Buy also confirmed that they will have the GS III available when it launches and we’re also hearing that pre-orders will go live on May 30th.

Won't let me most post link but there is an ad that has all the major carriers in Canada and the Galaxy S III of course.

Blue, because I've already had a white phone before. I also do a lot of browsing in bed with the lights off, so the blue will blend in with the night.
And trust me, this was not an easy decision to make, because the white S3 is a gorgeous device, and it looks better than the blue in pictures. But a lot of people have said the blue looks better in real life than in the pictures.
Hopefully, Rogers will have both colors in stock when it launches. If they only have one, I'll get whichever is available.

I'm getting the unlocked blue one as well. And yes it does count.
The reason I decided to get the international version is because there's a possbility that the North American version will have the four capacitive keys. I want the international version with the one hard key. I love it on the S2. I just love that you have two options to wake up the phone.
Here's the article on the AT&T and T-Mobile version. If AT&T and T-Mobile are getting a different look, you can bet the Canadian carriers will get it as well.
The same happened to the Note.

Looking to buy ZenFone 2 (ZE551ML)

I've been looking on website for the past days trying to find a ZenFone 2 (ZE551ML) when I look at the specifications it says it has a Intel Atom Quad Core Z3560 (1.8 GHz) processor not been able to find the (2.3 GHz) processor anywhere is this a mistake the websites have made?
Does anyone know where to purchase the (2.3 GHz) variant in the UK or dealers who ship to the UK? Also is the 32G device sold with 2.3Ghz
If so is there a real difference between the 2.3Ghz and the 1.8Ghz ??

try darty.com i can see they sell in france, not sure if they are shipping to uk, or do they have stores in UK.

The 2.3 is only in the 64GB version.

Ah I see then I'm guessing most people got them missed up, I was watching many reviews and they said 32GB with the 2.3Ghz, Couple Amazon reviews said they got 32GB with 2.3Ghz

That depends on where it is from. For example, there are both 64 and 32 GB versions with the 2.3 GHz cpu here in Japan.
As for the OP's question regarding whether there is a real difference, I believe the gpu, cpu architecture and base clock of the 3560 and 3580 are identical. The difference is just in the Max boost frequency under load. I doubt there is much notable difference in everyday use - a bit faster for heavy tasks, at the expense of a bit heavier battery drain?

My phone is from ASUS.fr and is 32gb , 4gb ram and 2.3ghz and WW of course.

I am posting this in hopes that it will help others to pick the right model for them. If any of the info is incorrect, let me know. I put this together based on my extensive research prior to purchasing the version I have. Asus really screwed up on this phone with the various confusing versions and even the name of the phone being Zenphone 2.
For example, I have the TW based version and its 2.3ghz with 4 gigs of ram and 32 gig storage.
(ZE551ML) 2.3 ghz with either 32gig or 64 gig and 4 gb of Ram (Intel® Atom™ Quad Core Z3580, PowerVR G6430) - with a 1080 HD IPS Display (403ppi)
(ZE551ML) 1.8 ghz with 32gig and 2 or 4 gb ram (Intel® Atom™ Quad Core Z3560, PowerVR G6430) - 1080 HD IPS Display (403ppi)
(ZE550ML) 1.8 ghz with 16gig and 2 gb ram (Intel® Atom™ Quad Core Z3560, PowerVR G6430) - 1080 HD IPS Display (267ppi)
NOTE that the 2.3 ghz version is the only one compatible with Quick Charge capabilities. The 18W BoostMaster adapter is included with 2.3GHz/4GB ZenFone 2 model only.. Asus states that the phone will quick charge to 60% in no more than 39 minutes.
Here are the different versions available on the market (that I know of)
TW = Taiwan
WW = World Wide
CN/IN = China and India
US = USA
JP = I have not been able to find much info on this as the JP (Japan) version is just starting to show up
These are the LTE Bands from the ASUS website to help make sure you get the correct one for your area/carrier:
4G :
FDD-LTE: (TW)
2100MHz(1)/1900MHz(2)/1800MHz(3)/1700MHz AWS(4)/850MHz(5)/900MHz(8)/700MHz(28)
FDD-LTE: (WW)
2100MHz(1)/1900MHz(2)/1800MHz(3)/1700MHz AWS(4)/850MHz(5)/2600MHz(7)/900MHz(8)/800MHz(20)
FDD-LTE: (US)
2100MHz(1)/1900MHz(2)/1800MHz(3)/1700MHz AWS(4)/850MHz(5)/2600MHz(7)/900MHz(8)/700MHz(17)/800MHz(20)
FDD-LTE: (CN/IN)
2100MHz(1)/1800MHz(3)
TDD-LTE: (CN/IN)
2600MHz(38)/1900MHz(39)/1900MHz(40)/1900MHz(41)
Also I have confirmed that the phone can take a 128gb micro SD card even though it says 64gig MicroSD on the Asus web site. I took the 128gig MicroSD card out of my Note 4 and tried it in the Zenphone 2 and it worked perfect!

Don't think that's right, as according to the spec sheet on the Asus site even the ZE550ML (720p with 1.8 GHz processor) supports fast charging with boost master adapter (not included)

I know for a fact that the 1.8 ghz 4 gb of ram ZE551ML version does not support fast charging as I had that unit and had to sell it because of that reason alone. I am not sure about the ZE550ML, can someone that has that unit confirm so I can update my post?
Thanks

If you are in the UK, then you can purchase from the European Amazon sites.
Italian amazon appears to be the cheapest, they have the 32gb 2.3ghz 4gb ram version for EUR345, which comes out under £250 with shipping.
Also, this is sold directly by amazon, so if you have issues you are covered by amazon returns policy.
I bought the phone from there, and it turned up the next day.
Unfortunately it had a fault (see my thread for details) so had to get a replacement. But that was simple enough with the aid of google translate.
If i had imported from China i would not have been happy!
Hopefully my fault was a one off, and the replacement will be a good as i would expect from the specs.

I got mine from eBay but got the 1.8 4Gb ram 32gb version ordered mine on Tuesday 12th may and came 2day

Does anybody know how many hardware versions of the smartphone out there?
Or there is one and frequency selection is software dependent?

best deal at gearbest
You can buy at gearbest with 12 months warranty versus 6 months for less money, 164 euros with promo code "CellPhones8"
Hope it helps

I am a little confused here.
Both TD and gear best carry the 1 pro. Gearbest shows that the phone has band 7 (2600) and until today, tiny reflected that as well.
6 days after ordering from tinydeal, I have received an email from them stating the phone does NOT support band 7. Every other seller and device specification site says bands 3&7 are supported.
Finding official documentation has been a bit of a daunting task.
Advice, anyone?

I'm kind of confused about the phone, too. There seem to be three models floating around in stores, a regular one with bands B1/B3/B7/B38/B39/B40/B41, one with B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B12/B17/B25/B26, and an International one with different bands listed as well. Yet the manufacturer only seems to list the B1/3/7/38/39/40/41 model. Is this true? Does the second model I listed with B2/4/5/17 have full AT&T LTE support in the US?

Im really not sure. Too many conflicting reports. I think I'm going to cancel my order in the morning. I asked about the bands on the official tech support Le forum, and they referred me to their Hong Kong forum while completely dodging the question.

Update: A forum moderator sent me to the 'official' sales site here: http://cn.lemall.com/le_1pro/parameter.html
Three variants listed. All three have the same FDD-LTE bands of 1/3/7
In today's email from tinydeal they told I that the phone ordered supports B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B12/B17/B25/B26.
I'm kinda torn now.. at under $200 it's not a huge risk.. But I'm already kinda tired of dealing with the crap of finding just the basics on this device. How much harder will it be when I have it in hand and need to do something more advanced?

This must be an updated model, as it appears that the newly listed bands are correct. Maybe this is a sign that they're actually moving forward with releasing the phone in the US? If anyone suspects that LTE Discovery might be wrong, please point me to a better utility.
For the record, I purchased mine from Coolicool. As of today, all of the other models have been removed (the two with the different bands listed and the international version) and this is the sole model up for sale. It won't allow me to post a link because I'm new here, but it's the featured product on the upper right side of the screen.

The option is missing from the first menu. The second menu says CDMA and has a box you can check. I have no way of knowing what it did or if it works, as I don't live in an area that using Band 20. All I know is that I'm definitely getting Band 2 and 17, which haven't been available up until this new batch started shipping out apparently. The specs on the site I bought from specifically says no Band 20 support, so I'm guessing this doesn't work.

Update: A forum moderator sent me to the 'official' sales site here: http://cn.lemall.com/le_1pro/parameter.html
Three variants listed. All three have the same FDD-LTE bands of 1/3/7
In today's email from tinydeal they told I that the phone ordered supports B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B12/B17/B25/B26.
I'm kinda torn now.. at under $200 it's not a huge risk.. But I'm already kinda tired of dealing with the crap of finding just the basics on this device. How much harder will it be when I have it in hand and need to do something more advanced?

Have you got it yet?
Does the 3 and 7 bands work?

I received one today, bought in Tinydeal and can confirm that it works in the band 4 Tmobile.

Can you please share your experience with the new phone. Battery, hit, camera, games for more than 30 min.
Thanks

I cancelled the order, ordered another from gearbest that did indeed work on bands 3&7 ( 7 being the important one for me - Free mobile in central France). Sold it after a couple days because the phone was just too damned big and the software was a mess.
Actually thinking of buying another one as a spare. My Nexus 5 did something wonky yesterday and I don't want to have it fail and get caught in a situation where I don't have a phone.

Did you order the same phone from gearbest?
I bought it from gearbest and in 5 days it already arrived
The software is a mess, so i installed cuoco92 rom

I looked on all official LeTV/ LeEco sites (Global, India, HK, China) but don't seem to be able to find an "international version". Does anyone know where to find official information rather than from resellers?

No, I decided not to order another one. I thought I could get past my dislike of 5.5 inch phones, but just too big for daily use for me. 5.2 inch seems to be the sweet spot, so that's where I'm focusing my attention at the moment - though that is presenting it's own set of challenges.
I'm using a nexus 5 at the moment. I would like a little better battery life and a little larger screen, but I'm not dying for a new phone at the moment.
If I do find myself in a spot where I have to replace my phone and I can't find a 5.2 inch that checks all the boxes (big one being budget), I'll probably just stick with a 5 inch phone.
Right now the top two are the xiaomi mi4c and the huawei p8.
I would rather go with an Mi5 or P9 but they're out of my price range.

I don't think an official international version exists. At least thas what I gathered from talking to some LeTv support people on their forums. Everything sold outside of HK/China and India is considered gray market, as far as I can tell.

Nubia z11 Band 20 support

Hi guys
On GSMarena, the Nubia z11 has LTE Band 20 listed in the specs. When I want to buy the phone however, most websites do not list band 20. There seems to be an international version and a normal version.
Can somebody confirm this? Or is there no difference between the versions and can I just go for the cheapest reseller.
Additionally, is there anybody who has spotted the coffee gold version in the wild? I can't find any real-life pictures so I am really hesitant to buy it since I don't want to end up with a phone that is basically pink.

Yes there's an international version with band 20, and other for china I think without band 20.

After some research I can confirm your claim. There is indeed an international version with band 20. The colours of the international version however, seem to be limited to silver and grey so no coffee gold or black gold.

Thanks Mate but I already ordered and have it here in use ! The initial cost was ~600 € but I ordered it when eBay had this voucher from paypal to get 15% discount which saved almost 100 bucks so it was ok for me. And i defenitely wanted the Black/Gold version.
I really hope Nubia gets this Phone out in more countries and sells more units so the public interest in having ROMs is bigger and something happens here
I don't how the update policies and behavior od NUBIA but I guess it is rather bad as for my experience with chinese manufacturers (except HUAWEI as a positive example).
Looking on the highend hardware this phone has...it still is a tiny bit laggy on some occasions...but this is moaning on a high level

FYI for this thread: I just looked it up on the Tech Specs from nubia.com where it say: FDD LTE B1/3/5/7/8/20 .
@paomaz: I have Telekom SIM and they use B20 with 800Mhz in Cities. So yes to your question.

Maybe a stupid question but, since there is an international version, do you guys think it would be possible to flash the radio etc. from the international version on the versions without band 20 support?

I have a China version of Nubia Z11 white/grey. Unfortunatelly i did not know that Nubia has a chinese version. In nubia.com, you can see only 2 versions of nubia Z11 which are USA and Europe/Asia. Unfortunatelly Chinese version doesn't support band 20. It supports band 3 which is common in Turkey. But sometimes we need band 20, especially far from city centers.

Hello,
How can I see if my phone can work with the 800 MHz in band 20?

As i know there isn't a particular way to learn this. You can screenshot your "about phone scrren" and send it to [email protected] ask them what your phone version is. (USA / Europe or china) China version doesn't support band 20 like mine. You can test it yourself with LTE Discovery app. This app needs root acces to read the LTE band type. If you never see band 20 there, probably your phone doesn't support it. By the way, my phone doesn't support band 20 and it's 4G signal is much way weaker then the other phones. I get 1 bar 4G signal but Samsung gets 5 bars for example.
Nubia is really weak on LTE signal.

I have a euro version, i buy this phone in italy LTE 800 (b20) working ! Chinese version dosent have b20

I alos have this one and the rom was terrible (from China) installed the ComboRom MM ver 3.0 from Pesa1234, now it works like a charm, only no sound on music player etc. Seems he has a solution for that as well, I am just not clever enough to know how to do it.
