E6853 LTE on AT&T?

Hi all, looking to place an order for the Z5P. Will the E6853 have LTE on AT&T?
thanks in advance.

Not sure yet, I am fairly certain I saw Band 17 support in the specs.
I won't be putting my SIM into mine until tonight or tomorrow.

I am sure answer is yes

Yes I use E6853 on ATT and get LTE. Currently on band 12.

I switched SIMs on Thursday - working solid so far.

Anyone using Z5P on US Tmobile? Got mine 2 days ago and my mobile internet is really slow. I got 1.6mbps dl spd and 4.0 mbps upload spd according to speedtest.net apps. While my z3 got 24mbps dl spd and 20 mbps upload spd in the same place. Am I the only one having this issue? Thanks in advance.

P.S. Do you think Z5P Duel will get better data speed?

Thanks for the responses. I ordered mine from Clove UK yesterday. Looking forward to it. Thanks again

I have the Z5 Premium Dual on t-mobile. Is this just with video or all Internet applications? I had issues with video unable to play anything above 480p. It turned out that tmob had flipped on the binge on video service. Once I turned that off my videos were able to stream properly. All my other Internet worked fine though. I bought the dual version only because it supports AWS band for both LTE and UMTS(3G/3.5G) in case I go to an area that doesn't have LTE.

So "binge on" gives you unlimited usage, but with a quality throttle?

Yeah, it limits video to 480p. When watching YouTube, anything above 480p buffered like crazy. Same with Netflix and hulu. So if you want to watch unlimited videos without using your data turn on binge on, bit just know you will be restricted to 480p or less. Otherwise turn it off. I'm on unlimited data so there is no need for me to use binge on.

I have 6853 and I get LTE on AT&T. It doesn't say LTE though, it says 4G.
It goes H, H+, and 4G.

In the rest of the world, LTE = 4G. It's only in the USA where AT&T managed to redefine H+ as 4G.

Why will my OP3 almost never connect to 4G 99% of the time?

My OP3 refuses to pickup 4G in places that my old iPhone 5s and 6P always did. Why is this?

we don't know, we do not know where u r at or what carrier u are on and by 4G do u mean LTE

I got this the first 2 hours that I used my new OP3. It stayed on H+ for 2 hours then without reboot or anything and not even moving, it got LTE.

I am having the same issue. I am on Bell in Toronto Canada. Some areas cannot get LTE. Some times my data just hangs showing full bars. Can't receive or make calls or texts. There are a few threads on different forums with people having the same issue. Hoping it is just a software bug that can be fixed with an update.

I'm O2 Germany and have a really good LTE reception. Look up what LTE bands your carrier is using and compare it to the specs of the OP3. Maybe that's the issue. You can also try to enable flight mode for a few seconds then disable it and the phone will connect new and then you might have LTE.
edit: Seems like Bell Canada is not fully supported but 3 UK is.

I get LTE fully at work just fine. But around my house and the neighbourhood where I live, I only get 3G whereas I used to always have 4G!

Hm I can recommend the app LTE Discovery. Then you'll see if there is any LTE network around you and if the phone receives it.

I understand the icons are not showing you what you want to see but how about the speeds? Did you do a comparison or is this all strictly off of H v LTE icon?

I am using my OP3 with mobile internet, using google map a lot. But the google map app eating too much data. Even if i download the offline map and trying to use offline the navigation. If i try to use the offline pre downloaded map without internet connection just does not work. After few seconds or minutes the map will become „blank” means no can see the streets and roads. Nothing at all. But if i turn back the internet on my phone everything coming back. But the point is, that is why i want to use offline maps to save my data bundles.
On my OPO it was not a problem, if i was using the offline map and turning off my mobile internet connection the google map was workng fine. I am using CM13/ Marshmallow on both phone.
Also it has never eat so much data like on OP3.
I am on Tmobile UK and using a 1GB data bundle per month. Before was using my OPO the 1 GB data was more then enough for a month using google map almost every day around 7-8 hours a day. I need the google sat nav for my everyday work so that is why using a lot.
But with OP3 only yesterday i was using almost 200MB and it was all the google map.
I was trying to disable background data traffic on the settings, and also the google map settings has some option but just does not help.
If i download the desired map via wifi and after trying to use the map offline it just become „blank” the map. I need to use the mobile internet to be able to use the offline map. Annoying…

AT&T in the US. I can't get LTE at work. Only H+, and sometimes just 3G.
My issue is that when I get into an area that is LTE for certain, the device doesn't pick it up. It stays in 3G or H+.
I then have to toggle the SIM settings on and off for the device to get LTE. Then it is fine until the next time I go into am area without LTE.
My apn settings are correct and my IMEI is mapped correctly.
Changing to LTE only won't work because then sometimes I would have no signal.

Have you installed OOS 3.2.4? If so go back to 3.2.2. There are known connectivity issues with 3.2.4. There's a little more info on the official OnePlus Community forum in case your interested.

best phone for 2016 but with this issue of signal not to good, samsung always stay on 4g as preferred network or if you want 3g it will stay forever with no issue, op3 fix this issue please i love this phone
i'm having the same issue on 3.2.2 and 3.2.4 always the signal drops from 3g to 2g i need to be switching the preferred network type from 3g to 4g LET
i use tigo and claro carrier

The Razer phone will work with GSM networks, like AT&T, T-Mobile, and their subsidiaries. It will NOT work on CDMA networks like Verizon and Sprint.

I will tell you. The answer is no. I'm in Korea KT is CDMA. The data side works, UMTS B1 & LTE B1 B2 & B8 but the voice calls do not work. In phone drops even LTE if/when I attempt to make a call. Calls over Wifi isn't an option either since my carrier doesn't support it. Over here everyone uses VOIP anyways. Im not bothered by the lack of calling I rarely even use my 'phone' anyways. Plus I'm hoping to get back to the states soon and I will be back on AT&T.

I purchased the Razer phone and am using Verizon with it. There is a work around that their tier 2 tech team can do. They add your line just on their LTE(GSM) network ( No band 13 CDMA is utilized). So if you are in an area that has good to great LTE signal then you can get the phone. Mine works great at work and outdoors. My only issue is at home. I always had one bar with all my other phones and now I have no service. I am waiting for a Samsung 4g LTE extender from Verizon so that I can correct that issue.
Rumor has it, Verizon will make the shift to just LTE by the end of 2018. If and when this happens, CDMA band and cellphones will no longer work with their network.
Hope I helped anyone who has the phone or wants to buy it. Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays.

Ok I got mine working on LTE as well but there's no phone capabilities. Sure u can send text and surf the internet but u can't make phone calls.

I used Verizon's live chat initially. Reason for this is I was able to save the conversation and use it as a reference when I had to call back and got another rep. Also, good way for the tier 2 tech team to catch up. It took some time and persistence to get it right. Once the chat rep exhausts all their troubleshoots, they will escalate it to tier 2. A threat about me leaving and going elsewhere was used on one occasion.
It did take time and patience but I think the phone is worth the trouble. My Razer works just as well as my GS 7 edge. Just a reminder. It is on LTE only, so if you hit an area without LTE you will not function.

I did my own questioning with this and simply stuck my SIM card from my Google phone into my Razer and for while it worked but I noticed it didn't stick.
So I called Verizon and they told me that because my sim card was registered to my Google phone I would need to go and get a new sim and stock it into the Razer and it would then work on LTE and would stick

I am going to say no and you should try live chat again. I had ported out when I first got this phone back around Thanksgiving and I couldn't stand it and wanted back in to Verizon. When I came back in, they activated a new sim using a pixel 2, popped it in my phone and did some configs on their end. You do not need a new sim if your current sim is on a phone that has LTE service with same OS and on Verizon already.

Verizon certification

With the poor support of the U11 from Verizon, I was worried about the U12+. That is until I found this on their open development site...
It's been certified for all bands, not just 13.

So that screenshot shows the bands that are NOT supported/certified? I'm thinking it should work...they've had on their online sales webpage that the unlocked works on VZW as well.
*The unlocked HTC U12+ is compatible with AT&T, T‑Mobile and Verizon Networks.

whats band 5???

No, this shows that bands that are certified. The U11 is also "compatible" with Verizon, but what they didn't tell you was that it was limited to band 13.

In S. Calif, Band 5 is a new one that you see as often as 2, 4, and 13.
I use a Play Store app called Network Cell Info. While driving, you can see
which band is connected, and on another tab, you can see a map with cell towers as you pass them.

Verizon Variant
Will the unlocked 128GB variant be compatible with Verizon? Specifically will the Verizon Wireless app and the Verizon Cloud app be compatible for this device? Also will the carrier voicemail be compatible? I have heard of some issues with all of these on the U11 which was unlocked but "compatible" with Verizon.

Band 5 is cellular 850mhz. Mostly used by Verizon and At&t Nationwide for legacy networks. In the last year or two these frequencies have been getting repurposed for LTE.

My biggest question is will this support Verizon's Wifi Calling as I live in a cell dead spot and also have service issues occasionally at work when in the basement of the building but wifi calling with my HTC 10 has been great for both of those issues, the U11 did not support Verizon wifi calling.

Has anybody picked up a U12+ on Verizon yet? Care to share your experience so far?

My order is released pending fulfillment as of this morning for the Verizon variant 64gb translucent blue.

For those who used the U11 and are now using if not expecting or thinking about getting this phone.
How overall coverage like without CDMA fall back?
Few weeks ago I road tripped around the west coast and parts of the Midwest and LTE coverage was pretty abudano. However there were times were either CDMA was the only thing available for miles or it was simply faster either because LTE was crowded (city) or weak signal where 3G was stronger (rural).
Few examples were driving around Yosemite, South East Oregon, Southern Montana at times, Yellowstone, and Southern Utah.
Thinking back on it I would've had no service for a few hours in places.

After getting my phone yesterday, I'm happy to report that I've seen bands 2, 4, & 13 while driving around.

I've tried that. Seems to me like a problem with default band settings.
In the build.prop it's set to:
ro.telephony.default_network=20,20
Which is asia lte/td-scdma; if i knew how to change it to ro.telephony.default_network=9
i think that would fix it.
For now i'm just waiting for someone to release some baseband versions to flash.

That's not good hopefully get mine in a few days and i'll report back. I had previous phone like Zuk Z2 that had similar bands but work with both LTE and calling/sms no issues.

I and a friend have noticed these same issues it must be android one issue.
I did post in another thread about poor signal on different networks and how it compared to redmi note 2 which doesn't even support a lot of the bands this phone does yet that has far better signal.
My friend doesn't even get signal in his house on o2/ee with this phone it keeps showing up as emergency services only but with redmi note 2 he gets max with o2 on 2g/3g and ee it hops about with half bar for 2g/3g and quater to 0 on 4g in the house.

Seems to work fine for me. I have 4G on and calls come through just fine. Might be a location issue but I'm on Tmobile and in SoCal

Yeah LTE data works great but no calls go through , and there are no GSM antennas near by.

Same issue with my Mi A2 on T-Mobile in the US. I even contacted TMobile about the issue because it seems like a network issue too. It's like it's having issues switching to 3G to accept the call as there is no voLTE. I'm hoping an update to the modem will fix the issue.
