Is the DNA usable internationally? - HTC Droid DNA

Hey guys i live in india and ive been following the DNA and J butterfly news very closely. Ive read that the DNA has GSM capabilities on international networks. It pains me that htc hasn't released an international variant and would like to know if ..... well i can use the phone in india. Im using the one x right now but would love a true HD 5 inch behemoth as my phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

A video was just released on YouTube showing the DNA running on att hspa. So I would assume it will work just about anywhere unless if verizon releases a patch to stop it from working on att.

Hello,
Has anyone tried it overseas yet?

Will this operate in the UK on our GSM networks?

I bought this phone at eBay and I've been using it all around Latin America with no issues so far, I've used it in Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Peru with a different sim card and operator for each country. Everything works perfectly Hsdpa data, messaging and phone calls, please have in account in Latin America the frequencies are the same as US at&t ones.

This phone should work in the UK someone else mentioned using it there in another thread with no issues.

Thanks all for that confirmation.

All you have to do is check the band frequencies to make sure that your operator supports the ones that the Dna uses for gsm

[Q] works motorola photon for 3g MoviStar venezuela?

My question is if the motorola photon after release Sprint works on 3 g MoviStar venezuela gsm. Sorry for my English but is translator
I wish i could help you but language barrier may be a problem
Right now there's a thread for unlocking the gsm radios. You'd have to get them unlocked to use gsm on another network i believe. So until they are unlocked you probably cant use them. Sorry

amaze without branding?

Hej Guys!
I'm from austria & i really adore the amaze. Unfortunately it's not available here in europe, so i have to import it.
Just want to know if theres an amaze without that crappy tmobile hardware branding?
Dunno myself so please help
Rgds from vienna
The Canadian (TELUS) Amaze has absolutely no branding at all. The only TELUS "bloatware" is Skype and Rdio being preinstalled.

There are differences in the 3G bandwidth between the Telus's Amaze and Wind's Amaze:
Telus 3G = 850/AWS/1900/2100 (as shown on the box of my Telus Amaze)
Wind 3G = 1700 / 2100 (per Wind website)
If you plan to use the data service, better to verify your carrier's 3G service to ensure you select the right model. This thing is nice but not cheap so make sure to make full use of it.

Using the apn settings yes--at least 3g depending on carrier ability. TBH, I have never really cared for the BS 4g set-up based on FCC ruling. Bottom-line, if it works well it works for me.
Hej
For gsm i need 900 & for 3g 2100.
Does that mean I can only use the tmob. One?
Thanks for ya advice!

Hi!
Using (unlocked) TMobile Amaze in Germany ( O2 Network which uses GSM 1800 sometime GSM900 and UMTS 2100 ) and can confirm that this one work here!
Only maybe network related issus so far are dropped signal / dropped calls / dropped data connection on 2G/GSM in areas without good coverage but think this is a phone/phone software related problem so what i have read so far...
I think that the other AmazeĀ“s are compatibile with the same bands because of using what i know so far exactly same hardware... also when u read tech spec on wind homepage they write:
Technical Specifications
Frequencies / Bands: 3G (UMTS/HSPA) AWS 1700/2100 2G (GSM/GPRS/EDGE) 850/1900/900/1800
So this one should also work!
I have chossen the TMob version because i was for holidays in nyc and it was cheap to buy it directly there without paying for shipment, customs and so an.... And also so far i know they are the only one how sell the white one?
Love the white and can live with the TMob logo.....
No, the other carrier's amaze's aren't the same as Tmobile's.
as stated earlier in the thread, Tmobile covers all 3g bands
Anyways the most helpful reply is this one

as you can see both carrier uses 2100 for 3g, see if telus uses 900 for their 2g. If it does, you can virtually use all carriers' models
Ok guys, thanks for your advice.
Want to place my order but I still dont know which phone I need?
I need one with 900 and 2100, so only the tmob. Will work in austria??
Thanks

Why is the Tmobile any better than the Telus model? In fact if you don't plan to root, the Telus model comes with virtually no bloatware. Perhaps the only negative is the lack of the camera software. And the Telus model has no branding, which is what the OP asked in the first place.
but you get all bands with tmobile one and unlockadble so i would say as a dev i would get tmobile one

Yeah I know what the op asked for, a few others and I pointed out that the telus and wind model works for his network, but he completely ignored it and said "so only tmobile work?" #facepalm
So I was like in whatevers mode and was like just go with the tmobile if you want to be safe, since it's virtually an international phone.
C'mon. I read the thread, but in hpacura's post he wrote all the networks except 900! But i need the 900 one here in my country? The wind amaze seems that it only has a 3G data connection?! Need 2G as well.
Have already rooted a lot of android (especially htc) phones, the amaze should be no problem..

[Q] Sgs3 from USA work in Europe?

Hi, my friend from east europe looking for galaxy s3,somehow he found that the best deal is to buy one from USA. My question is: will gs3 bought in USA work in europe?
Sorry for my eastern euroean Eng:laugh:
As long as its gsm and NOT CDMA. CDMA is unsupported in Europe and I know that Verizon and sprint are CDMA networks, he's best off buying an AT&T as their gsm then it will work no problem

[Q] Unlock at&t Optimus G to use on international gsm networks

Hi guys,
I live in Vietnam, but do love Optimus G and intend to buy an at&t model. So, I wonder if I can contact via email with at&t to get my unlock code (I will buy one from Amazon and have it shipped to Vietnam). Is it possible, for free or with some extral fee?
I also found some sites that give unlock code for about ten bucks or even for free, but's I'm still confused if that at&t will work normally as an international version on Asia's GSM netwoks or not.
Could you guys confirm or give me suggestions? Thanks a bunch!

From AT&T's site the phone works on GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 MHz (link)
According to a couple of sites, Vietnam has both 900 and 1800 bands available...

[Q] Need help deciding which one to get

I am still deciding whether I should buy ATT version or T-mobile version but I can not tell how these are different.
Can you guys enlighten me? Can I unlock T-mobile version and use it on ATT 4G as well as LTE? Flashing ROMs based on stocks from both carriers work ok on both of these phones? I have not had HTC since HD2. Thank in advance.

The TMO version will get full speed on both ATT and TMO. The ATT version will not get TMO specific AWS (high speed 4G). However the ATT is available with 64 gb of storage.
I would get the TMO version and unlock it - TMO will do it if you pay full price up front.
