Galaxy Alpha SM-G850F(Europe) will it work in Australia? - Samsung Galaxy Alpha

Howdy folks, I'm wondering if my SM-G850F will work in Australia (Melbourne) ? Any information is greatly appreciated
Cannot attach an image of the phone details :/
Android 5.0.2
Baseband G850FXXU1COI1

you need to check if your provider works with the same bands as the ones on the F model.
2G bands GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G bands HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G bands LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800) - G850F

Yes, it's working like a charm !

Thank you
Thanks a lot! Cheers!

what are they
internally all of the GSM models, except for the Dual Sim Chinese models are the same
The sprint model, due to CDMA and LTE radios on board are different, the partition layout isn't the same as the others

A radio doesn't add bands to your device automatically

Confusion about the US GSM and Global GSM

I am looking to get one of these for my trip to Brazil, and later on, Germany, but I am confused about the differences between the US GSM version and Global GSM version.
Both seem to have identical radios however, it's stated that the Global GSM version is only 2G with T-Mobile, which is a complete deal breaker.:
Both versions have the same radios:
GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)
UMTS/HSPA+ up to 21 Mbps (850, 1700 (AWS), 1900 MHz)
Is there any way to flash the radio on the Global version so it's fully compatible with T-Mobile?

Hello!
I had a simillar problem with the XT1524. I also live in Argentina.
The XT model is international, so at a hardware level you have all the bands, but it is limited by the software.
The solution is (tranks to JasonPro11):
1. Download "4G LTE Switch" from PlayStore.
2. Run the app (does not require special permissions).
3. Go to "Set preferred network type” and choose LTE/GSM.
4. In the upper corner go to "Set Radio Band" and choose "USA Band".
5. Restart and enjoy LTE and 3G in Argentina...
I´ve also published this post in Grupo Android (spanish version).

[Q] htc one M8 US AT&T frequency after unlock

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!

According to this page:
https://support.t-mobile.com/thread/126498?start=0&tstart=0
I could see that Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 has the same 4G bands as the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4, and the first answer which marked as the Correct Answer says that it won't get any 4G support With T-Mobile
