I have the Nokia 6.1 (2018) international version. I am trying to enable the US LTE bands for compatibility with T-Mobile. Is there a way for me to do this without root? Is there a way to do it with root? Any help you can provide would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kevin Long

Did you ever figure this out?
Hum... what is the "international version"? (TA-????)
The international version is TA-1068
I'd also like to know.
I'm getting band 4,5 on AT&T only.
You can only manage / force your phone to do that with root.
No root = use provider / googles android-one standard settings.

This isn't something you can do with or without root. It's not that those bands are somehow locked by software or firmware. The hardware is different.

Hi to continue from my start point:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/help/m10h-lte-converted-to-unlocked-t3505409#post69893882
I got to the conclusion I only need to unlock somehow (maybe with Qualcomm tools just if diag mode code worked, but it doesn't).
Had been reading this very interesting thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/help/unlock-lte-bands-t3375736/page6
And I would like to know if anyone had an idea how to achieve this. As far as im concerned both HTC 10 US and EMEA have both exact same hardware.
Thanks for your help!

if its rooted, its not a sprint device as none of the us market phones can be rooted. short answer is that you cant, even if you did flash firmware. I bet you have a 960F model which is gsm only and sprint uses cdma still for regular voice and text
Hey all,
Been trying to weed through the information to figure out which models of the plus and ultra will work with Verizon and allow a unlocked bootloader. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, I want to get the snapdragon Note 10+, so a friend can get me the US Cellular N975U but I will be using it in the UK. So, if anyone can help to answer my doubts:
1) How do I check if the device is region locked?
2) Will I be able to receive the SW updates with my UK sim here? or am I going to be restricted to flash manually via odin etc?
Thanks in advance

Give this a look & then contact US Cellular with the device IMEI, they'll likely need it to check for unlock status.

As for getting updates with a non-US Cellular SIM Card, I'd definitely ask about that as well.
Hopefully, someone here @ XDA will chime-in with their experience.
I am planning to take a AT&T locked SM-G986U to Cricket. My question is simple. How do I update the firmware?
My current LG G8 refuses to update and my understanding is I need an active AT&T simcard.
However, I found this: https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/g...M-G986U1/ATT/download/G986U1UEU1DUB7/1491717/
I found out that SM-G986U1 firmware should work on SM-G986U.
Will that above firmware work on my incoming SM-G986U? Will it allow VoLTE? Has anyone tried this?
I need VoLTE on Cricket and I know the AT&T firmware allows for that. But the above firmware is for the U1 not the U(should be cross-compatible) and says it's the AT&T version.
Can anyone please confirm this? Thank you so much for any and all help, advice, or suggestions.
If anyone can or wants to try or test this I'd love to know the results.
yes it will work and you get updates from samsung
So using that above would get me VoLTE? WiFi Calling would be nice but I need VoLTE. Just still a bit confused, thanks for your answer and help.
i get both but i have a att phone on att and running the u1 firmware
Ok, yeah mine is an AT&T model and I'm not sure it'll arrive up to date. We'll have to wait and see. thanks!
