I bought a "ASUS PadFone X mini - Android 4.4, LTE, Phone and Tablet T00S" on ebay. Before doing that i check in "WillMyPhoneWork" if it work in with GSM provider. It does.
The specs reads:
Technology
GSM / HSPA / LTE
2G bands
GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G bands
HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
4G bands
LTE band 2(1900), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 17(700)
Speed
HSPA 21.1/5.76 Mbps, LTE Cat3 100/50 Mbps
But when i try to use it with my provider it does not get any signal.
Any ideas what can i do? Thanks
Any idea??

AT&T devices are SIM locked by default. You need to follow the unlock procedure here: https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/

Thank man! I asked ATT and they gave me the unlock code:
Unlock request number: 20272xxxxx
Thank you for contacting AT&T about unlocking your mobile device.
Congratulations! Here are your unlock instructions:
Your unlock code is: XXXXXX
1. Power off the device and remove the AT&T SIM card.
2. Insert card from another wireless carrier.
3. Power on the device.
4. The device will prompt for the unlock code.
5. Enter the unlock code.
I DO NOT have an ATT sim. Do i need one? Because the device is not asking for the unlock code.

If it's factory unlocked, you can use it on most gsm carriers. The T-Mobile variant supports the 1700 and 2100 bands, which at&t does not. If you have the T-Mobile version, you're in a good situation.

It's not the T-Mobile Variant. I'm trying to determine which ROMs I should download, and use on my phone. I'm ot trying to download anything that's gonna brick it. My phone has absolutely nothing from T-Mobile installed, no T-Mobile Carrier branding or nothing.

Hi, I have two major questions about this tablet.
1. How long should I expect for the root access?
2. Any info about the LTE version? LTE bands?
Thanks in advance!

After purchasing Xperia Z3 I am eying Z4 tablet as well. I wonder if they'll release LTE version for US market with AWS HSPA bands (1700/2100) that T mobile uses in addition to LTE bands.
Here
android-root-guide.com # tutorial # sony-xperia-z4-tablet-lte.html
(replace the " # " by "/", couldn't post the original link as a new user)
is a guide that claims root access to the Z4 LTE tablet can be gained by a one-click-method. I haven't tried it out yet (and don't really trust it).
Root access to the z4 tablet would definitely be very nice to have. Any reliable source is appreciated!
Get a TWRP

This website appears like a scam to me:
- same text for several devices one could come up with
- same "testimonials"
- the text touts a lollipo-upgrade for the Z4 tablet ???!!
You should get root this way:
1. Go to SONY developer world and obtain an unlock code for your Tablet
2. unlock via fastboot
3. get a TWRP-Recovery image for the Z4 (THAT is NOT available right now, building it my self seems very hard due to my limited experience)
4. Boot into Recovery and flash SuperSU.zip

we need a working recovery like twrp, thats correct... AndroPlus mentioned that the recovery for Z2 + Z4T stock kernel could work.
He will work on it as soon as he gets his Z4T.

LTE works with T-Mobile network (B3:1800/B7:2600/B20:800) in Germany.
Here's what gsmarena says about the bands:
2G bands GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G bands HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G bands LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 12(700), 17(700), 20(800), 28(700), 40(2300)
Speed HSPA 42.2/5.76 Mbps, LTE Cat6 300/50 Mbps
GPRS/EDGE Up to 107/296 kbps
which is consistent with my observations.
We have root now (though i haven't tried it myself due to limited functionality of my tablet) Check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/z4-tablet/development/kernel-andropluskernel-v1-t3170689

Hi, I need help.
So, I bought 2 moto E 2015 model (at&t unlocked) from Ebay - very cheap.
But this phones working with only 2G mode in my country (even theese are LTE models ).
I want to reinstall system to better one - which there is no any at&t default applications or any of carrier applications.
And I also want to change baseband versions - because, this phone working only with 2G network type with my country's mobile carriers. I think it should be for baseband (network standarts) .
is it possible to fix problem with change firmware and baseband to no-contract version?
I asked my mobile carrier, they said, "we are using 900-1800 MHZ for GSM ; 900-2100 for 3G, 2100 for LTE (up to 2100)
Who can provide how to and links?
Thanks.
The AT&T model cannot be bootloader unlocked, so you cannot change the firmware to another version. There's a guide in the General forum about enabling additional LTE bands, you can try tweaking it for 3G, but there's no guarantee that the AT&T model's antenna hardware can support those bands.
