Thinking about buying this phone will I get AT&T LTE? - Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers

I live on Long Island, NY. I've researched and found conflicting information on getting LTE working on this phone. Any feedback would be appreciated.

LTE 4G is supported but only one sim at the time
those are the bands available on mi a2 lite
GSM B2/3/5/8
WCDMA B1/2/5/8
FDD-LTE B1/2/3/4/5/7/8/20
TD-LTE B38/40

[Q] will the international note 2 work with lte in canada?

Hi Note lovers!
So I'm looking to get the international version of the note 2, apparently it has LTE on board but i was wondering what frequencies, because I was hoping to get it working on bell mobility in Canada. I know it will work with the HSPA networks and all so its not a big deal for me but if anyone knows about the lte bands on the phone and on bell that would be great!
happy hacking

2600mhz band is deployed for Bell/Rogers. Int'l version will have this band. However, the 2600mhz coverage is faster than the AWS LTE being mainly deployed by Bell/Rogers/TELUS, which could mean spotty coverage and poor building penetration of the signal.

ahha thanks! so technically it will work but really depends on what spectrum they are using in my area?
Be aware the international n7100 that is being offered for pre orders does NOT have lte built in. The lte model (n7105) is coming later.

In the US?
Not compatible with the US Bands of any GSM Carrier for 4g LTE Yet, At&T is rumoured to get 1800MHz LTE band but it is not confirmed, and won't happen right away since we're speaking about implementing different frequencies which might mean different hardware and towers.
In France, LTE is working great on my SM-T805.
Sorry, forgot to mention, live in Norway and we do have the 2600MHz band available.
According to spec, tab s should support all: Hexa-Band 800, 850, 900, 1800, 2100, 2600 MHz
Samsung France told me it should work all over the world.
But your provider can or cannot activate LTE for your device.
I know some providers not always enable LTE' you must contact them...
My provider had to restart some of their services to make it work..

[Q] ZE551ML at&t APN settings

I am not getting 4G LTE. It is staying on H (hspa). I have the one plus one and get LTE.
The info online says this phone should have all of the bands required.
Any ideas.
Thank you
This is the 4gb ram 64gb ROM version

Check Settings - Mobile Network settings - Preferred Network Type and set it to LTE if you have this option and is not already set.
But I doubt that this is your problem. You bought the Taiwanese phone, didn't you? While OnePlus supports all ATT LTE bands (17, 4, 2), the Taiwanese Zenfone 2 doesn't support band 17 (nor ww model), which is otherwise typical for less inhabited aeries in the USA, but it seems that is widely used by ATT. Try the phone in the downtown or another city and you'll probably catch the LTE on other frequencies.
Yes I purchased it from Taiwan but all of the sites show so many bands for this phone. Asus does a terrible job with their model numbers. There are so many different versions with the same model number. There is a 4 g setting not lte and that is selected. I did pick up 4g while driving through part of the city.
Is there going to be a US model?
Thank you
Yes. There is a US model and its supposed to be released in the next month or so. The link below, click on specs, shows the LTE bands for each region. Clearly shows the Taiwanese model not having the 17 band.

That stinks. I took that page as it will work in all of these markets. Oh well
Thanks

Where in US are you?
There are some areas in the US that are only on LTE band 17. I suspect that's OP's issue.

I looked at it and TW, WW and US all have 1700 bands if that's what you are referring to. If not can you shed some light?

The topic is about bands not frequencies. There is nothing such as 1700 LTE band. Actually both USA and TW phones work on approximate LTE 700 MHz but bands are different because uplink and downlink are different. So TW model works on band 28 and US one on 17.

I see now. Tnx for the quick response. Hopefully I'm not outta luck when the phone arrives tomorrow from TW. Do you think that flashing later on a radio or baseband will solve this issue?
It's not that simple. Luckily Intel chip supports all LTE bands. But they must be activated in kernel too. Maybe someone will find the method to activate the missed ones. Otherwise you are not so bad. With TW phone you are short of only one LTE band of four major in the USA, Europeans missed 2 of 3.

Thanks again for that. I see a bright future for this. Appreciate all this info. And definitely will see u around.
CT and work in long island NY. I hit 4g LTE on my way to work but most of the time have hsta+ which is not terrible.
I'm stuck with NO data on my Zenfone 2 with T-Mobile.

Check your APN settings.
Should be
fast.t-mobile.com
make sure the dash is in there.

Thanks that worked. I've always used fast.tmobile.com for my connection and never had issues until today. Now I'm happy and on 4g.

Frequency wise is matches everything AT&T needs, i just picked up my 4g/64gb TW model, i'll be playing with apn's to see if i can get lte to pop. Only getting H+ so far.
Correction, shipped with WW firmware, no 700mhz for us.
More - As posted above, this Taiwanese version is missing the LTE band 17. And there are some areas that this may be the only band available, so you will not have LTE in those situations.
Thanks so much.... I was having a heck of time here with my Zenfone 2 in Tucson AZ on T-mobile.... I was stuck on 2G... but updating the APN to fast.t-mobile.com and 2 reboots seems to have done the trick. So glad I don't have to EBAY this! THANKS AGAIN.... Loving this thing so far!
Well ****! This is where I am stuck win H+ on ATT.
No way around this huh unless someone does a new rom? Or is it hardwired?

Q on LTE Bands of VZW G4

Has anyone tested out an AT&T SIM card in a Verizon variant of the G4? I'd really like an android phone that has LTE bands for both AT&T/VZW to swap back and forth with my iPhone. The VZW Nexus 6 worked great, but it was just too clunky for me.
Thanks in advance for the help!
AT&T uses two main bands for LTE, bands 5 and 17. They also use bands 2/4/29/30 depending on the market.
The Verizon G4 supports these bands according to Verizon: 2/4/13, and these bands according to other research I found online: 2/4/5/7/13.
If that's true, it sounds like you should be able to get some LTE in most markets, but you would be limited as the only bands you could get LTE on would be 2/4/5.
Thanks for your help!

Do you know where 2/4/5/7/13 are confirmed online? I really wish LG would give us more lte bands like the S6 and iphone 6 do so that I can use it between the US and Europe.

I only saw it on some spec listings, I'm not sure where you can confirm it.

Can someone confirm AT&T LTE on the T-Mobile H811?

Hi All,
I am on T-Mobile and AT&T and wish to purchase the H811 T-Mobile variant. Has anyone done this and then used the phone on AT&T? I see conflicting information where this model has Band 17 support, but on the T-Mobile site it doesn't list Band 17. T-Mobile's site is notoriously bad about leaving out supported LTE bands, so I thought maybe someone could tell me first hand if they've gotten LTE on AT&T's network but with the T-Mobile branded handset? This would be a HUGE help. Thank you so much in advance.

I'm going by the specs on LG page. Just googled "T-Mobile H811 full specs" and it states that frequencies are: LTE bands 2,4,12 and roaming bands 3,5,7.

Thanks, just did that as well and sadly there is no band 17
No Band 17 means no AT&T (or bad AT&T)

Just wanted to confirm Band 17 is a must-have (or LTE coverage is poor without it). I'm in Seattle if it matters. H811's are cheaper right now but AT&T is a must-have for me.
I use an F500L on Cricket aka AT&T it's always on Band 5, I've not experienced any issues with data on LTE.
EDIT: you can check detailed specifications on XDA's PdaDB here http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdacomparer&id1=8059&id2=8046
Since this post is a bit old I figured I'd double check. Any update on the T-Mobile H811 working on AT&T?
Is it confirmed no band 17, and that 17 is for sure needed if you're looking for LTE service?
