Verizon G4 Lacking MANY LTE BANDS - NEED HELP!

Hello!
I am moving over to Asia and need to access band 28, band 3, and all the rest. It seems the verizon version lacks many of these bands that I will be needing. Does anybody know of any other phone that will work great overseas - I clearly need to flip this phone.
I looked into what I can unlock, and it's not going to work... this phone doesn't have band 28 and many of the bands used over in Asia.

There are only 4-5 bands on the G4, I believe bands 2, 4, 5, and 13. If you need a great world phone you need to get an international phone, or one that works on all carriers, such as the Nexus 5X, 6, 6P, Moto X Pure, or iPhone.

Or if you like the G4 then get the 815 or 818 variant that works over there.

Pretty sure the bands are there, they are just locked down by Verizon or LG.

These are the only bands available for the vzw LG G4 (2, 4, 5, & 13).

Where. Mine doesn't.

Where's 3 & 7? 2, 4, 5, & 13 are the only ones accessable from the phone. Any other bands are on the carriers side.

according to the specs in LG website 3&7 are supported while roaming

For the VS986? Everything I've found said the Verizon G4 only supports bands 2, 4, 5, and 13. This is common on carrier branded handsets, where they typically only include bands for their network.

htc 10 gold

i wonder if the UK version has full att lte support since the usa preorder didnt have gold and i hated having a silver back with black front. what were they thinking? the taiwan version gold has only 4g according to ebay.

Yes, want the gold/white face as well. My A9 is that color scheme, really like it. No longer like that black face on a phone...guess I've become a partial iPhone fanboi..haha
Anyway, the chipset should be the same. Once you S-Off the phone/unlock the bootloader, might work just fine, even out of the box. But once the ROMs/Development start coming, surely all versions/universal will be supported.
I'm just not familiar enough with the UK phone version compared to the US...is it unlocked like the US version?
If so, should work.
HTC still hasn't replied to my email about when/if we will get a Gold/White option to buy????

Also, should note that I got a response from HTC finally regarding different colors:
Thanks for getting in touch with the HTC Online Store Support Team.
I am glad to know about expectations with our product, that actually is awesome, but unfortunately we are not able to confirm if on US we will have that specifications on the HTC ONE 10 , we will need to wait that the phone becomes available to order , then we will have the official models, and you will be able to confirm if that model becomes available also on US .
Blah blah...
Bothersome to me that they have 4 different models in the UK, Topaz/White, Silver/White and the other two in the US carbon/silver/black.
And that is there reply?
Hope they make the topaz/silver with white.

I have ordered my HTC10 in gold. Have my M7 for 3 years now. Time for a change.

UK version of HTC 10 Compatibility with US networks?

Hi
Quick question from a newbie. I am currently in the uk and would love to preorder the 10 but I can only get the UK version but I would like the US version. Are there any significant drawbacks? Would most likely use it on TMobile once I relocate to the US. I have seen earlier posts on frequencies and bands but I was hoping on a plain English response? Mostly interested in LTE of course. Thanks!

Gotta find out if the UK version of the phone supports US network bands/frequencies to see if it'll work properly with the network you're interested in. Software wise should be the same. The HTC UK site lists #WL SKU(America) under supported networks but it also says, "Network bands in regions may be different, depending on the mobile operator and your location."
I'm sure someone in here knows whether you only get support for one region based on where you order from or if you get support for all regions listed on the spec page. Unclear to me. US page only lists US bands though.

I dont think the EU/ASIA models have the US LTE bands.
Sent from my SM-G935T using XDA-Developers mobile app

Yes the main difference is the LTE bands. The US version has different bands to the UK version. Generally the UK uses band 8 for LTE, which the US version does not have. You would still be able to use the phone for texts, calls and even 3G access, but, you would not get LTE. Let us know, what service provider you are with, we can then see if the phone is comparable or not for you.

Hi
I don't have the phone yet obviously. I am on three UK now but once we relocate to the US I will most likely be signing up to TMobile. I thought some of the frequencies are the same? Different bands but frequency seems the same in the UK and US?
But to be honest after looking into it might be best to pick it up in the us for the warranty and the Uh Oh insurance.
Thanks for the replies. Hope this question helps someone else.

From what I can see, Three supports band 3 for LTE. Looking at the US speck phone it says the following: 4G LTE (up to 450Mbps), FDD: Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 13, 17, 20, 28, 29, 30, Support Cat 9 LTE, download up to 450 Mbps, upload up to 50 Mbps, so in theory it should work for you both here and in the US. I would double check with Three that their network is definitely band 3.

Thanks Stephen
At the same time of posting here I had also emailed HTC support and they came back to me with a brief statement that it will work as the phone supports 'multiple frequencies'. This was not a highly technical reply but at least now I have it writing!
Your answer certainly puts my mind at ease and I have gone ahead and preordered!
Strangely I had no option to choose 32 or 64GB storage though and they took payment immediately rather than wait till shipping time. Does this mean it's on the way already?
Thanks again. Will revisit this post in three months time I suppose and jet you guys know!

I've been wondering about this, too, and I think the UK HTC 10 is not fully compatible with AT&T or T-Mobile networks in the US. From Droid-Life, the bands needed are:
AT&T LTE bands 2, 4, 12, 17
T-Mobile LTE bands 2, 4, 12
From Clove, the bands supported are:
FDD B1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 12, 20, 28, 32; TDD B38, 40, 41
As you can see, the UK version is missing bands 2 and 4, which are used by both US GSM carriers, and also 17, which is used by AT&T.
I've been looking at this because the UK HTC 10 is about the same price as the US one, but it comes with HD earbuds. Unfortunately, it looks like it's incompatible.
EDIT:
I also found HTC's international HTC 10 page, and it spells it out pretty clearly in the Network specs that the EMEA version of the HTC 10 is missing many bands from the American version If anyone has information to the contrary that would be great...

I have the International HTC 10 (m10H) and its working on AT&T LTE band 17. I haven't seen it connected to band 2 or 4 yet.

I'm using a UK version on Tmobile and it works fine the network.
My signal stays on 4g and I've only dropped to HSPA once, which is fine with me. Aside from that, text, calls, etc all work without issue.
If you're after the headphones, they're pretty nice though they're a bit bass heavy for my taste. They sound good though and the noise isolation is surprisingly good.

Hi
probably you can use con T-mo, but you can not use in AT/T. The asian version doesn´t work in any 4G in the US

Is there a model of the g7 that will work well on at&t?

I'm on red pocket for the next year with At&t and would like to pickup a g7. Since they are not releasing a At&t varaint, anyone know if another model will work well, ie support most of lte bands? I'm struggling to find info. Thanks!

LG-G710UL Which is the unlocked variant. Don't know if it's available for purchase yet but that's what I'm using for work and AT&T sim works without issue on LTE.

Can't get it yet.
B&H says July.

ok, thanks fellas, I guess I will wait for them to release LTE bands supported for this device.

,I have a dual sim LM-G710EMW I bought on eBay and it’s working perfectly on AT&T and supports all bands

Please can you kindly make a screenshot of it on att and do a speedtest internet speed on the app?i appreciate it.
Because I asked 5 sellers on ebay on this model and they said it is not fully compatible and no return with regards to bands not compatible.

I have the LM-G710TM (T-Mobile) unlocked and have 4G LTE according to the status bar logo using the Nxtgen APN

WiFi calling does not work on the TM version...at least on the stock TMo software from what I've seen

I had to have ATT properly provision my phone by calling tech support. At first when I setup the phone it provisioned VoLTE but not the other services. I was able to check *#*#4636#*#* to see WiFi Calling wasn't provisioned until we formally updated the IMEI.
Unlike previous HTC devices where I had to spoof another device IMEI in order to activate services like VoLTE and HDVoice but still didn't get WiFiCalling, this time everything turned on like butter. I get seamless call transfer from WiFi to Network as well.
I did install "Carrier Services" from the play store but I think that is more for RCS and Project Fi support.

Well I got the 710ulm. It was 3g only for a day or two, then Lte kicked in once redpocket servers realized I switch phones. So far so good something about 80mb download speed for $18/month makes me happy.

Did U buy it from B&H? There is one thing that bothers me.. LTE Band 12. Does this phone really have it?
On official LG page for unlocked model G7 Thinq it says: LTE Bands 2/4/5/7/13/20/28/46/66
OTOH B&H says: LTE: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 13, 17, 20, 25, 26, 28, 40, 41, 46, 48, 66 Bands
So where is the true?
I want a black model to use on T-Mobile (they do not offer black model) and Band 12 is really important.
Can U or someone else who has this model (LMG710ULM) confirm Band 12? TIA

Purchased from BestBuy. B+H didn't have theirs yet.
No idea on Band 12. I'm on ATT and it works without issue with advanced services.
If it's a mission critical need for you, reach out to LG directly to confirm. That way it's not speculation, but actual fact.

Ordered 7t through Amazon, have questions.

Hey guys I am getting my wife a 7t. I was going to get it from their official site but noticed that Amazon had the 7t with 256gb ROM for cheaper. I noticed in the reviews a few people were complaining its the Chinese model (HD1900) and that its not global version. Should I cancel my order and just get it from one plus' website or am I fine with the one coming from amazon?

Don't take my word only but I don't think there is a specific model for China. I believe there is only a global model, european model and indan model. And a T-Mobile model if you want to count that. So I would think you probably got the global model and should be good but let someone else come in here and confirm it

You should be fine, I have the same model. all I did was change the rom to the global rom because it does come with Hydrogen OS. And also it should work fine with US carriers, I tried T-mobile, Verizon and AT&T

I think the basic differences between various variants are the network frequency bands. The question is which bands are supported in your region. On the basis of that, you can choose the correct variant.

I am from India and I ordered 7T from amazon and I got the Indian variant (HD1901).

This.
HD1900 is missing bands 25, 30, 46, 66, 71.
25 is a superset of 2, currently used by Sprint and potentially by TMobile eventually.
30 is important for ATT.
66 is a superset of 4, used by all the main supported carriers, although generally you'll be fine with just band 4.
71 is TMobile's new lowband frequency.
Yes, the hd1900 would likely work fine with all the carriers, especially in urban areas. However, reception may be spottier (lack of lowband 71), or bandwidth may be lower (4 instead of 66, missing 30).
My guess is the hardware is the same, but there hasn't been much effort to figure out how to unlock the other bands.

Ah, I cannot confirm that whether the hardware is the same or not. But in other threads, people are saying that if you flash the roms of other regions you can unlock those bands. There are many tutorials out there on how to unlock all bandwidths. I'm giving some useful links. Read them. Maybe you can find what you're looking for.

Well i got it the 7t today and it works great with my carrier (Cricket but it shows AT&T in the menu). Im really impressed with it especially for paying less than $500, its a bit snappier than my s10+. It already had Oxygen 10.0.4 installed and I just flashed 10.0.7 global and it gave me an OTA for 10.0.9. Really nice phone!
