I have wondered does galaxy nexus lte network work in European? Because European model doesn't have lte network and has only 16gb of memory so I was thinking that I would buy nexus from Verizon if that lte network would work in Finland. Could someone smart tell me if it is possible thanks

Won't work. The frequencies are all different.
And here in Finland 4g is already working but I don't know does nexus support only Verizon network that isn't in here

The LTE version is CDMA/LTE. European carriers are all GSM. And to my knowledge, there aren't any big LTE networks yet being rolled out there...
So no, it won't work at all. Even if you got ahold of an LTE SIM from a local LTE carrier it wouldn't work with the frequencies in the Verizon device.
Okey thanks.. I will buy European model then

Verizon LTE model is using band 13 700mhz radio and it'd factory locked to Verizon. You guys are using 800mhz/2600mhz as far as I know so it will most definitely not work.
Just go for the HSPA+ version.

Guys,
I so want to buy the note 2 like today. However T-Mobile has no coverage in my area. If I buy the phone at full price I can get it unlocked. Am just wondering if T-Mobile note will work on at&t lte Or hspa+.

The phone does support HSPA+ on AT&T out the box since the bands are included. The phone also has T-Mobile LTE frequency as well, but is said to be locked down by software since T-Mobile does not have LTE up and running yet. I believe T-Mobile and AT&T do use the same frequency for LTE. Only way to know if someone unlocks their device and puts in an AT&T sim.
According to AnandTech review it WILL support ATT LTE. So how does a non-Tmobile user unlock this phone??? I want to use on ATT.
From the review...
http://www.anandtech.com/show/6386/samsung-galaxy-note-2-review-t-mobile-/9
One of the most interesting things about the Galaxy Note 2 on T-Mobile is that it literally is the same hardware as the AT&T Note 2 with LTE. Sure, the model number is different, but the T-Mobile Note 2 includes support for LTE bands 17 (which AT&T uses) and 4 (AWS, which AT&T has specced devices out for and T-Mobile has confirmed it will deploy LTE on). This is to my knowledge the first T-Mobile handset with overt LTE support, and thus a solid future-proof purchase if you’re determined to have a T-Mobile handset that will work with the carrier’s upcoming LTE on AWS plans.
In addition, if you unlock the handset there’s no reason it shouldn’t work on AT&T’s LTE network that I can see. I managed to unlock the T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 but not before leaving the AT&T LTE market in Dallas. It does however work as expected on WCDMA 1900 in my own market on AT&T after unlocking.
Will the Note 2 work on streight talk as well?
I'm curious if the note II would work on att's 3g network. I'm with Sprint atm but I'm constantly roaming due to poor coverage so I'm assuming it won't be long till they nix my contract and paying $100+ for limited data is just ridiculous to me so I was going to go with TMobile but they only have.edge coverage around here no 3g so I was hoping if I went with TMobile I could use AT&T towers and actually have a decently priced plan with real service.

Im in the same boat im going thru the same thing I have both simplemobile/tmo and Att for work and i played with the international version and ofourse it was fine with my Att sim i didnt try my simplemoble/tmo sim at the time but im hearing the tmo version is exactly like the att and international one so imma just use my work phone/att to save some money(I use google voice so it doesnt matter what phone i use same number) and plus im suppose to get a discounted price so lets say i can possible be very happy this weekend!! but imma take the chance all the info i read states it will work with Att hspa+network so well see soon! if nobody tries it before me...
I took the plunge...
I bought the TMOB version
Cellunlocker.net unlocked it (I selected the international note 2 option)

LTE band might just be software locked since T-Mo has yet to get LTE, FCC filings showed LTE capability. YMMV
So how does one unloxk that?

Hacked radio. Prob be a while for that though. Need att radio drivers most likely.

Make sure your using the right APN....... if your not using the right APN you won't get lte

Most likely your going to need the At&t radio just how At&t note 1 worked on t-mobile 4g by flashing the radio... maybe even a full on rom from at&t version since all the phones now come with the same hardware
Hey guys,
So I know this may be a noob question but I bought my Samsung Galaxy Note II N7100 yesterday in Italy. I know that Italy is getting 4G/LTE in 800/1800/2600 Frequencies. My N7100 accepts the 1800 mhz GSM frequency.
Does that mean I will be able to access the 4G?
If not, can I do something? Flash a radio?
If there is no solution with my current phone, ill need to get another phone and spend another 699 eur.
I know many say you need the Note II LTE but it will be on 700 and 2100, not the ones offered in Italy.
My friend has the same issue with his brand new SIII.
Ideas? Anyone help?
2G, 3G and 4G (LTE) can use various freqs in different regions. Sometimes they even share the same freq. A 1800Mhz 3G does not mean that 1800Mhz 4G will work. It's different a modem by hardware and software in the phone.

So there is absolutely nothing that I do? What about flashing new modems?

Your N7100 doesn't have an LTE radio, so it is never going to work on LTE.

Will a 4g enabled device like the iphone 5, galaxy note 2 or galaxy s3 bought in hong kong work on uk EE 4g.

That depends on the LTE bands that the device supports. You are looking for LTE band 3, which is 1800MHz.

The official LTE versions of the Note 2 and S3 from Hong Kong are tri-band LTE models. Running LTE bands 900mhz 1800mhz and 2600 mhz. So as long as your carrier has LTE in any of those bands it will work. The iphone 5 is only 1800mhz. I am currently using 4G on 1800 and 2600mhz as my carrier runs both bands.

Hello,
So, this is pretty much the question.
A friend of mine has an European GSM Galaxy nexus.
He is going to Australia for a year. Will his Nexus work there with an australian SIM card? Will 3g and GPS work with no issues?
Thanks for the help.
Cheers!
Yes

Hello all the dev, gurus and forum members!!
Goodday from Vaiobuddy....
I have a confusion regarding Note 2 variants..
In India, GT-N7100 is available everywhere which is GSM...
I am looking to buy CDMA version of Note II, but I dont know which version supports CDMA for all CDMA mobile networks providers.
Please can somebody guide me to a correct CDMA VERSION of this phone and in which country it is available, so that I can get it from there for my personal use with indian cdma service providers.
Cheers to all !!!

These days most of the phone come with both gsm and cdma radio because of 3g.
But I am not sure if you can actually use cdma sim as it is wcdma and I think there would be a difference.
And in India we have an easy portability service so you can transfer to a gsm network.
If it's reliance or tata then it's a different issue buy docomo is a available in gsm as well isn't it?

Thanks mate,
But mine is a corporate connection, thus I dont have an option of migration. Wcdma is wide band cdma and it is different technology than cdma.

Verizon (schi-605) and Sprint (SPH-L900) have CDMA versions of the Note2. I think there is a Chinese CDMA version too, don't know the model number. The Sprint version has an embedded (a chip) sim for LTE the Verizon one has a Sim port. They both have an individual forum on XDA so you can probably find specific info there.

Sorry, but it's not going to work with this phone.
Orange Dominicana uses the 900 band frequency for 3g (WCDMA). On this phone that band is locked for being used with 2g (GSM). That's why you're getting Edge.
Unfortunately, the T-Mobile version of this phone also locked the 900 band for GSM. That means the NV data hack won't work for you either.
Sorry. Hope that explains it, and I hope they at least launch LTE service on a compatible band for you.
