I want to buy Sprint version over ebay and use it in Bosnia, I went through specs online for it, read tons of forum posts and it seem that 3G will work (2100/900) but I'm still note sure. Can anyone confirm me this from first hand experience or someone that is more into 3G and all that mess with frequency bands?
Thank you all for your help.
I need some help! I don't know if this has been answered, I've looked and I haven't found a topic on this
I want to buy this phone on Amazon because I don't wanna add a line and I wanna use my Amazon Credit Card so I wanna buy this on there
but I'm lost of which unlocked version works with T-Mobile LTE
any help will be appreciated!
and sorry Mods if you wanna mode this thread to the Q&A Section, seems more of a question than General Information of the device, Thanks!

IIRC, and I'm only answering because I haven't seen anyone else pitch in yet, only the T-Mobile variant works completely with T-Mobile (obviously).
The next closest one is the AT&T variant, but I think I remember reading that you might not get full LTE support (dual band use) on it.
For the most part, all of the GSM variants will work on T-Mobile, but you will not get LTE connections, at the most, just 3G.
When I was searching for the G3, I remember bumping into that problem of no Tmo LTE bands on the unlocked variants.
So, I just went with the Tmo branded 851 and flushed the receipt down the toilet (after making a copy, of course )

thanks haha for the response but yeah I guess I'm gonna have to do the same!
Hey guys,
I couldn't find a thread here on XDA in regards to this, but I am wondering if my T-Mobile LG G3 that has been unlocked by T-Mobile will work on Verizon....at all? This is not a personal choice, but more like I keep being asked by many in regards to my ad on Craigslist if the phone will work. I have done some research on this and found that the G3's LTE antenna can utilize a few select bands of Verizon's LTE, so data and MMS are my last worry. My main concern is voice and texting. COnsidering those are separate antennae, what should I know in order to inform possible buyers? I obviously do not want to be falsifying information in any way (literally against my morals; I was screwed over twice with smartphones and CL).
Again, what should I know. I seem to be finding myself using gsmarena.com to compare the Verizon G3 and T-Mobile G3 LTE band support.
Any help will amazing so I can get this phone sold! Thanks all!! :good:
According to willmyphonework the LTE will work fine but if they ever go anywhere without LTE, they will not have service at all. The CDMA part of verizon isn't compatible with the GSM edge capabilities of the T-Mobile g3.
This was a thread months ago during the release. Not sure if anybody ever tested this or knew.
Since they offer several other colors people might want here in the US, a few had thoughts about buying a UK/EU version and testing to see what networks really work in the US.
Not sure if it was a radio/firmware issue, or it the chipset supports it either way. Just need to put the correct firmware on and get 4G/LTE support.
But the question was is the band for TMo/ATT 4g LTE supported on these devices/tested working in the US?
Or is it a no-go?!?
Thanks
Hi all,
I've been trying to find more information on this but surprisingly I don't think anyone has actually asked.
What I would like to know is, does the Sprint version have the same hardware to support the same LTE bands? (And 3G)
I know that this device can be unlocked to be used on a GSM network via some of the methods here on XDA, although I'm not too sure if it's going to have full network support like the unlocked one.
Thanks!
