[Q] Asus Zenfone 2 ZE551ML MODEL ASUS_ZOOAD 3g

I need help, i want to buy a zenfone 2 from alegrecompra, but i dont know if the version Z00AD support 3G wcdma, i live in latin america.
Does anyone has bought this version?

I made a similar question but nobody answered.
I understand that if your buying it from a Chinese based site you will get the CN version.
CN version definitely lacks many LTE bands support compared to TW or WW version, but apparently it supports the same WCDMA bands as the others, and, on top of that, it also supports TD-CDMA bands only useful in China, but never got any confitmation first hand, only real way to tell for sure would be if someone with that CN version confirms they get WCDMA coverage with a provider using the same bands as your company...
It would be wiser to get the TW version instead but its harder to find an online store selling it apart from eBay sellers and also it should be a bit more expensive I guess...

H+ 3G WCDMA 2100 on CN version working confirmed. Haven't tested the other bands, but if 2100 is working the other ones should be too.

Thanks! I think its safe to assume then that WCDMA support is same across all regional versions...

Work here in Mauritius but not on all operator. One operator it show the H but download is 2G

It works on 3G WCDMA, I just bought the CN version and it working on band 1900.

@OP
I suggest you buy the Zenfone 2 that you mentioned in your post. That is an America Version that can be used in Latin America as well.
IMHO, do not buy the China or Taiwan Variants as those were specifically for Asian Continent.
Good Luck.

The only Freq/band that the Z00AD (WW) doesn't support that the US version supports is 700 MHz/Band 17 -- there are some South/Central American providers that use that frequency, but not many.
Here's the breakdown of frequencies from the ASUS site:
2G :
EDGE/GPRS/GSM : (WW version)
850MHz/900MHz/1800MHz/1900MHz,
EDGE GPRS GSM: (TH version)
900MHz/1800MHz, Class
3G :
WCDMA: (WW version)
850MHz/900MHz/1900MHz/2100MHz
WCDMA: (TH version)
900MHz/2100MHz
TD-SCDMA: (CN/IN version Only)
1900 ~ 2100
4G :
FDD-LTE: (TW version)
2100MHz(1)/1900MHz(2)/1800MHz(3)/1700MHz AWS(4)/850MHz(5)/900MHz(8)/1800MHz(9)/800MHz(18)/850MHz(19)/700MHz(28)
FDD-LTE: (WW version)
2100MHz(1)/1900MHz(2)/1800MHz(3)/1700MHz AWS(4)/850MHz(5)/2600MHz(7)/900MHz(8)/800MHz(20)
FDD-LTE: (US version)
2100MHz(1)/1900MHz(2)/1800MHz(3)/1700MHz AWS(4)/850MHz(5)/2600MHz(7)/900MHz(8)/700MHz(17)/800MHz(20)
FDD-LTE: (TH version)
2100MHz(1)/1800MHz(3)/1700MHz AWS(4)/2600MHz(7)/900MHz(8)/800MHz(20)
FDD-LTE: (CN version)
2100MHz(1)/1800MHz(3)

I can't do links as a new user, but here are the frequencies used by various providers:

help me! please!

What are the US and CN differences?

I have got the US version but as we all know the software sucks and my device actually has an pixel error so I will need to send it back anyway (efox).
What if I request a CN replacement device? What are the differences? I read that you can only choose between english and chinese language but that wouldn't be a problem.
Would I be happy with the software too?

For one, the frequency bands are different. The US version was made to work with North American networks. So depending on where you live, the Chinese version might not work with your country's carriers.
I'm referring specifically to the 4G Lte bands. If you bought the Chinese version to use in North America, you'd likely only get 3G coverage. And with many carriers soon to be going exclusively 4G, your phone will soon be useless.

Thanks for your helpful reply but 4G only? Never heard of that. Sounds scary.

Does anyone actually try to put MM 16s to our US version? I know that LP cause hard brick but what will happen with official 16s rom?
Is there any differences with bootloader or something else on hardware bases?
I can't try this because my le one pro is my main phone.

Euro Rom - missing LTE band 3

Hello guys
i got the OP3 A3000. i got mine from the official website and its the American version.
ilive in Israel, and there for my device wont have a LTE band #3 like the European versions come with.
my question is, if ill install a Euro rom..would it include the missing LTE band?
* is the anyway other way to pass this issue or installing the missing band ?
thanks in advance.
Eli

Nope. The bands are defined outside of the rom, I'd assume in the modem configuration.

is there anyway that i can install or activate that band on my phone ?

Unless you have the encryption keys to program the baseband...
There's a thread here where people have been trying to change bands without success.

My friend you should check if the phone has the band you need before you buy the phone.
A3000 model it's also for China region.

tl;dr - bands can't be changed

Question Question about oneplus 9 pro LE2123 - EU version

Sorry if the same question asked before, I did the research and couldn't find the answer yet.
I bought 9 pro EU version for dual sim cards, and plan to root the phone too.
Since I'll use the phone with T-Mobile, will I get wifi calling as well as 5G? What's the best image I can use? Thanks

I believe the bands are very different from the US bands used here. You'll probably have a hard time simply connecting to T-Mobile, but if you have a SIM card lying around, it wouldn't hurt to see if I'm wrong .

I wish there was a definitive answer for this by now.... I need to buy a DUAL SIM phone with CUSTOM ROMS available that works on T-MOBILE... And I can't find anything that works for all 3 requirements

LE2123 is Chinese device right?
Why is the OP mentioning that it's an EU version?

Le2123 is an EU device.

The LE2123 supports T-Mobile bands 2, 4, 5, 12, 41, and 66 on LTE which means it's only missing 71 (which unfortunately is a large portion of indoor and rural coverage) but the 5G side is pretty bleak since it's missing n71. It has T-Mobile's n41 midband but without n71, you're going to drop from 5G to LTE a lot.
It will work, it just won't be the best you can get from T-Mo. I don't believe there is a device that meets your requirements with full compatibility unless you can deal with having eSIM for one slot and get an unlocked Pixel 6/Pro.

I live in Europe and I am thinking to buy a LE2120 device, but inside the OS settings it shows that it's LE2123.
Does this mean that it will work fine with the bands here?

It sounds like it has been converted to LE2123 software but the bands aren't changed by the software.

Question Is Pixel 6 pro model G8VOU Tmobile phone?

Hello, I purchased a pixel 6 pro from ebay, the seller had it listed as Tmobile phone, I got a phone with model number G8VOU. From searching the net, the model number is supposed to have mmWave and thus it should be either ATT or Verizon. The seller listed it based on the warranty information on the google website. Is it possible that this model number is a Tmobile phone?

Yes,I bought mine direct from T-Mobile US & that is the model number. The model number is going to be the same, regardless of which US Carrier it originated from or, purchased direct from Google US or as an unlocked model from US retail outlets.

Is model number GLUOG (only Sub6 for 5G) not the Tmobile version of this phone? Why would Tmobile sell phones with mmWave 5G (G8VOU) since they do not use this technology?

How can I tell if the phone has mmWave or not?
