I have an S5 active and it's time to get a new phone. I like the mods available for the d855 and was looking at getting an unlocked one off Amazon. I'm using straight talk (at&t), and like the att service coverage. I keep finding mixed answers, some say the 855 won't have 4g lte and others say it will. Can someone tell me for sure if the d855 will work? The d855 uses the same bands as my g870a, so I would think it would. Looking to order a phone today, so any input is appreciated. Thanks

I have no clue how to even find that out. I just want to find out if I can use a d855 and get 4g on att. The dev selection is a little better for the d855 over the AT&T d850.

first, sorry if im posting in the wrong area. also, im sorry if there has been a solution and i missed it. i did search. i used to have the 727 skyrocket and moved on from it for another device. however, while using it i had 3g with tmobile using i think it was the blaze radio. any chance of doing this with the att version s3? looks like the bands are the same. i found a great deal on a s3 and want to pull the trigger but i dont want to be stuck on edge with tmobile. im pretty sure 1900 has not been refarmed up here in the boston area yet.
thanks for your help in advance.
nobody? a few reads but no replies...
There is currently no ability to use the AT&T version of the S3 on T Mobile's 1700mhz band.

I'm on cricket cdma, I'll be purchasing a g3 to go on cricket gsm. To one day if i'd like bounce between sprint and new cricket as I please.
Now the dilemma here is which is the g3 that will enable me to do so. That is also unlockable rootable and backupable, as well as has the qi charging backside. (I've only read here and there att ver does not have that)
I'm left with sprints actual g3 t mobile's, or Verizon's....
Please help me in my hunt thanks.

T-Mobile has a unlockable BL according to reports. So that's your best bet and it supports qi.

I meant unlockable in terms of cdma, and gsm capabilities
Would t mobile still be best?
On the other note I have been bartering someone for a locked sprint g3 as low as 400 bucs I figure ill never find it.that low ever for some.time but its locked so is the cheapness worth it ?

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.

Hi All,
A long time ago I got this device sent to me by an old friend in Korea. I mainly needed it for testing purposes and doing a few videos so it being a Korean version was not an issue.
However now I want to sell this device to someone in the UK but noticed that when I put a UK sim in, it does not work.
Any ideas or fixes how I can get around this?
Thanks in advance!
There are threads for sim unlock in the sprint variant forums, I don't know if they could be helpful for you...

Thanks! Will have a look
I currently have a d855 and was really wanting to use 4g but the d855 doesn't have the correct bands for my area. Would it be possible to get an att motherboard and swap it out? Also if you could, would it matter to get a 32gb, since I currently have a 16gb model? Thanks!
