Sorry if this is being posted before but I could not confirm an answer in google or xda forum.
Can anyone inform me if N910A (AT&T) Note 4 have Band 3 and Band 7?
AT&T website indicate B1 / B2 / B3 / B4 / B5 / B7 / B12 / B17 / B20 and B29
Samsung website indicate B2 / B4 / B5 / B12 / B17
I am using it in Asia and LTE B3, B7 are the only ones available
Thanks in advance
Can someone please reply to this.
It is a big problem for me also, since I have been in USA for some time now working, and now I am going back home to Croatia.
I read the same thing about N910A LTE bands on Samsung website, and then went to AT&T official website to international coverage troubleshoot and there it sad that note 4 should work in my home country on GSM/3G/LTE without any problems.
This is what they show about note 4 on their international troubleshoot:
NETWORK
- GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900
- UMTS/HSPA+ 850/1900/2100
- LTE Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 17, 20, 29
I'm getting a lot of conflicting info on the internet. Does the global version 6gb/128gb of this phone use LTE bands 2 4 5 12 and 17? LTE band 12 is very important since I have T-Mobile/MetroPCS.

Doesn't look like it'll work for band 12 or 17.
Try using kimovil.com for all phone specs, hasn't let me down yet.
I have here listed of supported LTE bands and carrier aggregation combinations: https://cacombos.com/device?model=M1906G7G
It was leaked before but now confirmed that Samsung will release the snapdragon variant of the S20 Ultra (and probably the other ones) in Korea. I'm not sure where the center of gravity is (country) as far as development for these phones, but I know North American members have to buy international anyway. Considering snapdragons are easier to develop for and in some ways superior to Exynos, does anyone think there will be a shift to purchasing these unlocked snapdragon variants? I purchased a Korean Note 8 to get 256gb and unlike the Chinese version the wireless bands are fully compatible in the U.S. (Assuming you're on AT&T or T-Mobile). I'd bet this time Verizon and Sprint would be covered by virtue of the snapdragon modems.
What's the model number of the Korean version

It's SM-G988N. The Korean variants are the same as the US or European Model number but with an N instead of U or F/FD.
By the way here is a link to the geekbench results for the Korean Variant. This proves the use of the 865 in Korea.
I also found this MSN Korea Article which states the following (Translated):
"Samsung's next-generation flagship smartphone 'Galaxy S20' series is expected to be equipped with 12GB (GB) RAM and Qualcomm Snapdragon 865.
On July 1, the GSM Arena, an information technology (IT) specialized media, reported that three test results of the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20 + and Galaxy S20 Ultra were captured at the performance test site Geekbench.
The three models identified this time are the Galaxy S20 (SM-G981N / SM-G981U), Galaxy S20 + (SM-G986N / SM-G986U) and Galaxy S20 Ultra (SM-G988N / SM-G988U). N is the Korean version, U is the US model.
In fact, GeekBench has found that all three have 12GB of RAM. At 12GB of RAM, it's three times the size of the iPhone 11 (4GB).
Also noticeable is that the Snapdragon 865 is applied as a mobile application processor (AP) for both the Galaxy S20 Korean and US models. Chinese IT blogger Ivingzhou (@Iceuniverse) posted the results of a Geekbench experiment on his Twitter. This is a good thing. ”
Until last year, Samsung Electronics had Samsung Exynos in Korea and Europe and Qualcomm Snapdragon in countries such as North America. In particular, Samsung Exynos has been applied in the domestic market, from entry-level to flagship models.
Therefore, attention is focused on the background of Samsung's adoption of Qualcomm Snapdragon instead of Exynos. Samsung Exynos series, which came to a level similar to Qualcomm Snapdragon, is said to be caused by the performance gap again compared to Snapdragon 865 in case of Exynos 990.

Interesting. So it's better to get Korean over hong Kong?

Maybe. Previously there was no reason to get the Chinese version because no one was developing for it. It was bootloader unlocked, but you'd essentially be in the same position as someone with the US version. There were also South American variants that used snapdragon as well. I'm just hoping that with the introduction of a snapdragon variant in Korea, people will be more open to purchasing that one. It's a pretty affluent market that would be into custom development. So that in addition to Americans needing to buy internationally anyway creates the possibility.
I know of a few people that bought Korean variants in the past due to larger capacities (myself included) so it's not *too* far fetched.

Are the 5G bands compatible as well?
interesting the Korean versions historically always had exynos, now they went snapdragon?
guess they wanted the superior processor for themselves this year.
Based on this comparison spec sheet from Techwalls, it doesn’t look like the Korean model will support the same 5G bands as the US models (sub 6ghz, mid band, mmwave). Hopefully, this sheet isn’t complete yet.
Search Techwalls.com Samsung Ultra 5G (sorry, new user and can’t post a url yet).
Acutally I live in China but I'm currently using a Korean Variant Galaxy Note10+ 5G, as the Exynos ones have better access to custom stuffs like Magisk, Lineage OS, etc. I have the same confusion as you. Usually the Korean Variant uses Exynos proccecors but this time they went for Snapdragon 865. I'm worrying about if the Snapdragon ones are able to flash custom ROMs and Magisk. I guess I'll just wait. If those great developers start to get Magisk or Lineage OS done on Snapdragon versions, I'll just get a Korean one. If not, I guess I'd better get a Hong Kong variant or Chinese Mainland variant, as they get better 5G support in Chinese Mainland.

Thanks a lot for this piece of info. It seems that Korean variants always get global LTE bands support, but the 5G bands are only for Korea. In China we use 5G Bands n41, n78 and n79. So I guess I'd better get a Chinese Mainland variant or Hong Kong variant.
Does any one know whether the Realme 6 Pro will work on T-Mobile in the US? Also, where will it be available to buy and when? I searched Amazon, but only found the previous gen. Thanks in advance.

I would like to know as well
Here are the bands -
2G bands GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 - SIM 1 & SIM 2
3G bands HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700(AWS) / 1900 / 2100 - Global
HSDPA 850 / 900 / 2100 - India
4G bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 20, 28, 38, 40, 41 - Global
1, 3, 5, 8, 38, 40, 41 - India
So is that a yes or a no from a actual user?
Does anyone know if the OnePlus 7T T-Mobile (HD1907) is going to be usable in Europe if unlocked? I attach the relevant T-Mobile App screenshots to this post.
I tried to look it up on the internet when it comes to supported frequencies. But the www.frequencycheck.com does not list the T-Mobile (HD1907) version.
However here (http://band71.batcave.net/) HD1907 is listed together with HD1905, and that one is compatible with European bands: https://www.frequencycheck.com/mode...ual-sim-td-lte-na-128gb-hd1905-bbk-guacamoleg
All in all when it comes to supported frequencies, it looks like it will be fine.
My main concern is if unlocked T-Mobile variant will like my European SIM card and the double SIM tray.
Has anyone got some information regarding this?
Here are the frequencies on the T mobile variant oneplus 7T.
Frequency: UMTS: Band I (2100), Band II (1900), Band IV (1700/2100), Band V (850), Band VIII (900); GSM: 850 MHz, 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, 1900 MHz; LTE: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 13, 17, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, 28, 29, 30, 34, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 46, 48, 66, 71; CDMA: 0, 1, 10
source: https://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phone/oneplus-7t
yes, the hd1905 and hd1907 support the most bands out of any 7t variant. The tmobile firmware may potentially be lacking some ims support though (eg tmo firmware is missing visible wireless ims support, but that's domestic), but you're not likely to run into any issues.
I don't have my old dump handy to compare profiles, but if you wanted to be certain you'll have maximum support, consider flashing the global firmware.
Nice!
How did you unlock the T-Mobile version 7t?

Well, I have a 1907, unlocked from the factory, everything works, except for the volte, although my provider connects to band 28, it does not connect to volte and my provider uses that network to provide its services
Yep, everything works fine, I buy dual sim tray on aliexpress, and second sim card works too
