[Q] Help Please?

i live in the States and currently have T-Mobile ... and i was wondering if i get a Canadian GSM Nexus.. http://www.rogers.com/web/link/wirelessBuyFlow?forwardTo=PhoneThenPlan&productType=normal&productId_Detailed=NEXUSGBLK&N=52+11
... could i unlock it and run it on T-Mo HSPA/HSPA+?
The Rogers Nexus Frequency Band:
GSM Bands:850/900/1800/1900
HSPA+/HSPA Bands:850/1900/2100
T-Mo Frequency Band:
850 MH: GSM/GPRS/EDGE
1900 MH: GSM/GPRS/EDGE
1700 MHz: UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+
1900 MHz: UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+

You don't even have to unlock it as they are already unlocked. It will work just fine on T-mobile.
The Galaxy Nexus is pentaband: HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100

All GSM Nexus are pentaband and will work on TMo US.

No fancy work. Just buy and put the SIM in.
But you'll be spending more buying it in Canada (or from Canada) for use in the states. Buy from one of the importers and you'll undoubtedly save money.

Slightly off-topic, but this above is wrong.
Rogers uses 850/1900 for both GSM and HSPA.
T-Mobile uses 1900 for GSM and AWS for HSPA.
All GSM/HSPA Galaxy Nexus have a 850/900/1800/1900 GSM radio and a 850/900/AWS/1900/2100 HSPA radio.

T-mobile Samsung Note 2 support 3G 2100 MHz?

I am going back to Thailand next year. I will get this Galaxy note 2 unlock and take it with me.
However, in my country has 3G on 2100 MHz with 3 main carries as follow.
3G
Carries name Band
AIS 1950 MHz - 1965 MHz and 2140 MHz - 2155 MHz
TRUE 1935 MHz - 1950 MHz and 2125 MHz - 2140 MHz
DTAC 1920 MHz - 1935 MHz and 2110 MHz - 2135 MHz
I was trying to understand what it says on box of Tmobile Note 2.
GSM Quad-band: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz UMTS: Band I ,band II, Band IV (Dual-band1700/2100 MHz), Band V
I don't get it much and I am not 100% sure that the phone does support 3G in my country.
Please some experts in here could help me confirm this. Would you please answer this for me? I appreciate every reply and thank you for your time.

I think you should be good to go... The International variant has fewer bands then we do on our T-mobile device so I wouldn't expect that you would have any troubles...:fingers-crossed:

A quick search reveals the following frequency bands in use in Thailand:
•AIS:
GSM 900, GSM 1800, UMTS 900 [VIII]
•TOT3G:
GSM1900, UMTS 2100
•DTAC:
GSM 1800, UMTS 850 [V]
•TrueMove:
GSM 1800, UMTS 850 [V]
The T-mobile Galaxy Note 2 supports the following frequency bands:
HSDPA: 850 [V], 1700/2100 [IV], 1900 [II], 2100
GSM: 850, 900, 1800, 1900
Judging by this, it seems like your best bet is TOT3G, DTAC, and TrueMove for UMTS functionality. All three of these have frequency bands supported by the Galaxy Note 2.

That's old information. These frequencies were used temporary.
They just auctioned the frequencies for 3G in Thailand. The auction is approved by Thai government. I have described the range of frequencies at the first post. But I am not sure it is in 2100 MHz. Any idea?
Thank you for reply.

ARC S - LT18i usage with US frequencies, which provider

We (Austrian family) are about making a trip to the US (NYC, PHX, Grand Canyon, Tuba, Page, Kanab, LAS, SFO, LAX) and I am wondering which telephone provider / mobile plan I should choose regarding 3G data.
I think the ARC S LT18i has 3G in the bands 900 and 2100 (no AWS).
Band....frequency....Uplink...........Downlink
I...........2100......... 1920–1980.....2110–2170
VIII.........900............880–915,,,,,,,,,925–960
f-Bands UMTS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMTS_frequency_bands
Following Infos from http://prepaidwithdata.wikia.com/wiki/USA
AT&T:
2G (GSM/GPRS/EDGE): 850 and 1900 MHz
3G (UMTS/HSPA): 850 and 1900 MHz
4G (LTE): 700 and 1700/2100 MHz(AWS)
T-Mobile:
4G & 3G speeds require your phone to support AWS UMTS (1700/2100 Mhz), otherwise you will only get 2.5G EDGE (requires 1900 MHz GSM PCS supported phone).
2G (GSM/GPRS/EDGE): 850 and 1900 MHz
3G (UMTS/HSPA): 1700 and 1900 MHz
4G (LTE): 1700 MHz
Readysim: uses T-Mobile ???

1. Does this mean I wont have 3G, not even EDGE with any of them ? only 2G EDGE ?
I think the worst part of our trip regarding coverage will be from Grand Canyon to Las Vegas.
2. Which provider would you suggest ?

[Q] Nexus 7 LTE Japan to Philippines

Just a question,
I'm here in Japan and I found out that the Nexus 7 (2013) LTE Edition is quite cheaper here
than in Philippines.
Would the Nexus LTE here in Japan work on the LTE connection in Philippines?
Thank you! (Sorry if some of you find the question noob-ish, i'm just not sure)

I think it will work here in the philippines since hardwares are also sinilar and the baseband/frequency forgot the exact name

Really? I'm really hesitating right now if I really should buy or not.

What carrier are you planning to use it with? You can look up what frequencies and band that carrier uses, e.g. 850 MHz and band 1.
Here's the LTE frequency/band info: https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/3248332
North America and Japan:
GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
HSPA+: 850/900/1900/2100/AWS (1700/2100) MHz (Bands: 1/2/4/5/8)
LTE: 700/850/1700/1800/1900/2100 MHZ (Bands: 1/2/3/4/5/13/17)
Rest of World:
GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
HSPA+: 850/900/1900/2100/AWS (1700/2100) MHz (Bands: 1/2/4/5/8)
LTE: 800/850/1700/1800/1900/2100/2600 MHz (Bands: 1/2/3/4/5/7/20)

Thanks for the info.
So I'm planning to enter Globe Telecom, so does it means I can use a Nexus 7 LTE from Japan to LTE in Philippines?

Globe uses 1800 MHz as its LTE frequency, but you should check what band they use.

Does this do HSPA?

Oppo 7 Advertises:
Mexico & US:

AT&T Bands:

Here's my question:
I see 850 MHz for both GSM/GPRS/EDGE and HSPA+... Does this mean that it will default to HSPA+ when it exists?
I just don't want it to toggle from LTE to 2G, heh...

Yes. Default preference order is LTE, then HSPA+/WCDMA, then EDGE/GPRS/GSM
