Hello
Tried to find out the answer in these forums but can't find it.
I bought an AT&T I717 for the faster processor and lack of a physical home button (prefer the look) but not sure it's compatible with our data networks?
GSMArena gives:
i717
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network LTE 700 MHz Class 17 / 1700 / 2100
N7000
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network LTE 700 (region specific)
I've got a nasty suspicion that my Three UK network might be using 900 MHz 3G. The only frequency not on the i717.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMTS_frequency_bands#cite_note-9
Can anyone else confirm this is the problem or is it the stock AT&T Radio? Would rooting and installing another Radio & ROM make any difference or should I attempt to sell it and get an N7000?
Any serious help much appreciated.

Played around with the settings from dialling *#2263# and speeds improved.
Still comments on Radios & ROMs welcome.

Hi, I just saw Galaxy S3 LTE international edition.
Can I use Galaxy S3 LTE international edition on Rogers in Canada?
If I use SGS3 LTE international edition, I will use only 3G.
Please tell me

Hi guys,
Im thinking about getting this device. Does anyone know if it comes network free or just on verizon?
Thanks
It is network free. Just make sure the network you're planning to use is supported by the bands available for the phone:
2G Network: CDMA 800 / 1900
GSM: 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network: CDMA2000 1xEV-DO
HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network: LTE 700
hey,
I've been looking at this phone and it looks amazing. The feature that's most appealing to me is the 2g/3g network, accd. to gsmarena:
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 1700 / 2100 or HSDPA 1700 / 1900 / 2100
HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
I'm currently in the States and intend on using it here, but might be in Korea in the near future and don't want to have to buy 2 phones. Long question short: could I use this phone in S. Korea?
thanks
Depends on what bands are being used by the company you wish to use it on, check the bands of that company, make sure the company is a GSM company, then check the info against the info you obtained from gsmarena, if they match up, then you have your answer.
Hi....i got a little problem in my country we have Orange Dominicana from Dominican Republic...supposely their 3G network is this one:
CDMA N/A
GSM/EDGE 900 MHz / 1800 MHz / 1900 MHz
3G 900 MHz
But i have the i717 and when i go to *#2263# to force in to 900 band it will only read edge so its kinda slow. but when i use my phone in Claro Dominicana network they have:
CDMA 1900 Mhz
GSM/EDGE 850 MHz / 1900 MHz
3G 850 MHz
It works perfect in 850...the 4g icon appears on my bar. Now ppl say its because the att wont work on orange and only the international version will, i dont know that, is there a way i can solve this? maybe flashing the international modem on my i717 or are they the same? Thanks!
Why two threads?
Hi, does anyone know how I can find out and check that bands and their associated frequency MHz supports unlocked htc one m8 US AT & T phone?
Depending on the ROM, you can enter *#*#SERVICE#*#* (*#*#7378423#*#*) into the dialer to see the bands supported. But this requires Servicemenu.apk installed, and I just tried it on my M8 (running SROM) and it doesn't work for me.
There are also several apps which can tell you the bands supported by the device (LTE Discover, Signalcheck) but I can't vouch for any one in particular.
What exactly are you trying to determine?
AT&T uses 3G Bands 2 and 5 (850 and 1900 MHZ) and LTE bands 2, 4, 5, and 17. Based on device specs from here, the AT&T version M8 also supports (in addition to the bands used by AT&T) 3G Band 1 (2100 MHz) and LTE Band 7.

Hi RP73 thank!
Because of problem to connect may hTC M8 in Croatia EU area out of city on the the G3 900MHz band I would like to check which band really support my device. Other wise some check applications see my device as US brand AT$T other as Europe GSM device? hTC was bought as factory unlocked!
