This unlocked T-Mobile S6E+ is picking up very strong signals for AT&T LTE on bands B2, B4, and B17, but it's not aggregating them. Should it not be aggregating them?
Does carrier aggregation on B17 have to be enabled on the T-Mobile SGE+?

Hey,
Is there anyway that I can change the bands on my E9+ to use the U.S. AT&T LTE bands?
These are the bands that I Need: AT&T 4G HSPA and HSPA+ use 850Mhz(Band 5) and 1900Mhz(Band 2) bands but it all depends on area if they own a license. LTE uses Band 17(700Mhz), Band 5(850Mhz), Band 2(1900Mhz), Band 4(1700/2100Mhz) currently.
Thanks in advance..
Hello. Does the LG K8 prepaid phone come unlocked? domestically or internationally or both or none? Thanks.
The that device is unlocked but it isn't a world phone and it can only be used in the United States. ^Andria
Hi thanks for that reply. But in saying that if it is unlocked and it is used overseas on a 2g or 3g or 4g band that the phone supports it should work?
It's unlocked for use with another U.S. service provider but it can't be used abroad because it doesn't have world phone capability. ^Andria
What I can't figure out is does she mean its domestically unlocked but internationally locked? ( that wouldn't make sense would it?)
Or is she clueless or trying to bs me in how I said about the frequencies?
Lol.
She means it doesnt have the bands that support overseas countries.

From gsmarena lg k8 bands:
2G bands GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

It should
Hi everyone
I am looking forward to buy a sprint version galaxy s6 which has been unlocked, imported and being sold by someone else. Now the question i want to ask is whether this will work with 4g network in my country (jio 4g)with data and Volte support. The seller tried the sim card in it and it shows full network bars but according to him data and call is not working. Is it something limited to sprint version phones? Should i buy it?

all depends on what carrier you wish to use the phone on and what network the carrier operates on. Do a Google search for the network technology your carrier uses and if it is on the list below you should be fine as long as the phone is definitely SIM network Unlocked and the IMEI is not Blacklisted.

Is modem mi5s have modulation QAM256 and is can aggregate more than two bands?
By https://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_mi_5s-7260.php modem is Cat12 600/150 Mbps and LTE-A (4CA) but I dont think so. I saw only CA two bands B3+B1 (1800MHz 2100MHz). I have never seen CA 3 bands B3+B1+B7 (1800MHz 2100MHz 2600Mhz)
I am shopping for a Note 10+ 512gb to be used on T-Mobile network while in US. It appears none of the US carrier or unlocked Note 10+ come with dual sim. So my only option is to get Hong Kong version.
1. Does anyone know if Hong Kong version has all the radio frequency needed for T-Mobile? Below is what I copied from online spec.
2. Does Note 10+'s dual sim work the same way as iPhone XS Max? Which both sim are on standby for call and text, you can select one of them for data in setting?
3. If I remember correctly, Note 8 dual sim can have one sim on 3g while the other one on LTE. Is this still the case or its limited to 2g only? Thank!

Just get a device intended for use in your country, in xda there are tons of posts from people doing as you want and with bad luck end having some troubles, the worst one beeing no way to claim warranty, but that is just my opinion...
To answer my own question and for those who are interested. Note 10+ Hong Kong Dual Sim version is missing LTE band 66 and 71 that T-Mobile USA uses. 66 is usually used in stadium and arenas to ease congestion, where 71 covers some rural areas for extended reach. You will be fine with the HK version if you are using the devices mainly in metropolitan area. But since HK version also lack many other bands that US unlocked version offers, some of them maybe used by Sprint (which I don’t have time to research). It means you may not be benefiting from improved coverage if T-Mobile and Sprint join together.
It looks like US unlocked version has the most comprehensive band coverage among all models, domestic and international. If I am not wrong, it has every band available in Note 10+ lineup. For those who doesn’t need dual sim, US unlocked version is the best choice as far as network compatibility wise.
I'm using the N9750 on T-Mobile. Dual SIM works and both SIMS are 4G simultaneously. I have no issues with service. WiFi and VOLTE work. I know T-Mobile uses bands 66 and 71 in some areas but it really doesn't make a difference where I live.
