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.
Raymond Yeung
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.

I was wondering if I could use the T-Mobile Live TV app on the Xperia Play. I will be getting an unlocked r800i Xperia next week with a T-Mobile 4G Monthly Plan. I already know that the phone will run in 2G edge. But I just wanted to know if I'd be able to watch live TV using this phone, have any of you tried this?
Sorry for my terrible english jeje

Ahh ok, well I will be using it with wifi then.
I have a GT-9100 galaxy s2 that I use with the media net unlimited data plan and wondered if this phone works with it or not.
I have read that the S3 and HTC one unlocked get pushed to the smart phone plan just wondered if AT&T has done the same to this phone.
Thanks
It just depends on the phones imei. Sometimes they will be marked sometimes not. Samebwith EVERY phone out there.

I just wanted to know if any one here has tried it yet. I am guessing LTE won't work under the plan, but H+ still does so for unlimited it works for me, then when T-mobile's LTE/H+ grows a bit I can come over to the pink side. LOL

Yea I am using it on AT&T. My speeds are on avg 3-5mbs down load and 1 upload. I can get 6-9mbs down load at night some times and in a few places was able to get over 2mbs upload, but that's rare. The highest download speed I ever got was 12mbs download and 2.6mbs upload.
Sadly even with 21mbs H+ built in the phone, AT&T only uses H+ 14/7mbs. So that really sucks. But on the good side I have gone over 100GB two times with out issue. No throttling or any of that.
On avg I really only use 5-20GB a month, I only used the 100GB when my ISP failed me. ( Screw you time warner Cable, will be glad to be rid of you soon.)

Can I by any chance see your APN settings? I just got my zperia ZL and I was on the $15/month unltd. plan. But AT&T switched me over to the expensive plan. Maybe my APN settings can be tweaked to allow me to stay with medianet.
Thanks
Any luck with the ZL on Medianet?
Got 4g connection for my d855. For a few days I got a nice download speed around 11 mb/s, but now it gets 1 mb/s. Funny thing is on 3g I get almost 8mb/s. Can 3g even get these kinds of speed or is it some kind of a bug? Tested via ookla speedtest.

I'm sorry, but you're not making any sense. We're talking that 4g is almost 8x slower every time of day. Youtube plays 240p videos on 4g with excellent full bar connection.
Never mind, does it connect to lte
It connects to 4g
Try getting a sim that support lte(does what I did and it work)
I got a brand new sim when I purchased the phone.
Did you tried going on network select and select manual. After check the one that says lte
And yes, I've tried selecting it manually.

You could try to see your carrier.
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 am using my Chinese version on T-mobile. I am from NY.
I'm using the L29 on Metro (T-Mobile) here in NY with no issues. The AL00 and L29 have the same bands so the service should be equal.
I have it on Walmart Family Mobile which uses T-Mobile towers, in Southern California.

Reception is excellent. LTe, volte but no wifi calling, it is easy to set up, just go to app gallery download Google play store and use phone clone to transfer file from your old phone. Issues are Google pay and Google map location history doesn't work.

I turn off location history anyway. Kinda creepy the way it follows me. I appreciate your info. Can't wait to set this up and use it..
I have the global on Tmo in So Cal. Internet browsing is fine, but watching youtube/netflix has been a bit disappointing. My youtube autos to 240p I can usually manually move it to 360 sometimes 480 will work., haven't been able to stream anything higher w/o buffering. Everything else works fine minus wifi calling.
I have the Chinese variant on tmobile. I noticed that it seems to block data of certain apps or games sometimes. I often have to turn on a VPN to get it to work. This happened with youtube, Google drive, and a few others. Ive already gone and changed multiple settings to get it to ignore data of almost all apps and to allow them unfettered, then finally to maintain connection when screen is off. It didn't work. I had this issue with the ham2 also blocking a couple apps. Perhaps it is a Chinese government thing.

You won't be able to, the phone only has 4/6 of the Tmobile bands, it has some of the LTE bands but not all of them. Unless someone has any other suggestions.

Does the wifi disconnect then reconnect every 15 minutes or so since the last update?
If I'm not mistaken the 20x is missing two bands on the t mobile USA network. Bands 66 and 71. Shouldn't be too much of an issue .
