Well, I'm tired of waiting for a AT&T version of 2.1. With the twofer deal, one cent deals continuing at all vendors through New Year's I don't think they will release a firmware for Xmas if they do at all. It would not surprise me if the phone is dropped after New Years since they will have so many other android phones from other makers, and a Playstation phone or X12 won't be that far away.
I was looking in the X10a's 1.6 service menu and it says in the
Service Menu submenu Configuration
Working Band/s:
GSM850, GMS900, GSM1800, GSM1900
UMTS_BS1, UMTS_BS2, UMTS_BS5, UMTS_BS6
I've looked and read here and elsewhere, that the 2.1 firmware seems to have the band numbers. We all know there is some overlap in bands in Europe and Asia with the Americas. The only firmware with the 1-2-5-6 combo is the Brazil LAM. I've read threads that people with the generic LAM with the NAM1 suffix of 1.6 were updated to this variant.
Yet, there are lot's of posts saying that AT&T people are using generic world with the 1-4-8 combo. And lots of posts related or not, saying that their GSM/3G is acting funny after the update.
In the SE White Paper for X10 Sept 2010 that has links posted in the forum, it clearly states that there are two variations of the phone,
one with 3 HSPA bands (900, 1700, 2100), and
one with 4 HSPA bands (800, 850, 1900, 2100)
both variations have the same 4 GSM bands (850,900,1800,1900) making all the phones "World" phones and 'quad band'.
I've read many times that people are saying that all bands are enabled in all generic versions. But I've yet to find a post were someone went into the Service Menu and posted which bands were 'working' according to the phone. Again, if true, why bother with the 1-4-8 or 1-2-5-6 extensions?
I would like someone on a AT&T phone who already has a 1-4-8 or the 1-2-5-6 variants to go into the service menu and tell me what the phone says is the "Working Bands" after the update.
Also some clarity on anything that was done afterwards to make the phone functional on the web. Manual/Auto insert of the APN, Marketplace issues, loss of Multimedia Messages or other problems. As a final note, tell me if you removed applications manually or with one of the 'junk apk' applications would be nice, since it seems to me, that there are varying results from the hundreds of threads here that are jamming all this information together (and then the OP changes the downloads making hundreds of responses invalid since they don't pertain anymore).
SO, if you would be so kind to fill out the following questions:
1. My Working Bands Menu says:_______________________________
2. I used firmware: _____________________________________
3. I had a problem with:
A: APN configuration:
B: Marketplace
C: MM SMS
D: Other
E: No problems!
4. I had removed "Junk" apk prior to any issues with (which issues in #3)
5. I removed "Junk" apk and my phone: ___________________________

Working Band/s:
GSM 850, 900, 1800, 1900
UMTS_BC1, BC2, BC5, BC6
I used the world generic 2.1
no problem. just had to redo my apn since I could not send two body messages.
Working Band/s:
GSM 850, 900, 1800, 1900
UMTS_BC1, BC2, BC5, BC6
I used the world generic 2.1 as you and i cant get 3G
i thought frecuencies where:
UMTS_BS1, BS2, BS5, BS6 instead of
UMTS_BC1, BC2, BC5, BC6

I used the Brazil firmware and I get HSPDA and 3G, without problems. All of the UMTS say BC.
Different frequency bands between AT&T/T-Mobile/Rogers/Telus versions of HTC One M9
I've tried to dig up the info as to what the differences are in terms of frequency bands available for each of the different GSM versions of the HTC One M9. This is what I came up with from the carrier websites:
AT&T
• UMTS: I/II/ V
• LTE: 2/3/4/5/7/12/17/29
T-Mobile
• UMTS: I/II/IV/V
• LTE : 2/3/4/7/12/17
Rogers
• UMTS: I/II/IV/V
• LTE: 2/3/4/5/7/12/13/17/29/30
Telus
• UMTS: I/II/V
• LTE : 1/2/4/5/7/13/17
Does anyone know if this is indeed accurate? Does someone have the proper info? Thanks.
I have searched and seen so much conflicting information. I finally used a link where you can insert your IMEI and it will show you the band's the manufacturers say are on the phone. Anyway the AT&T version seems to also have Band 4 WCDMA and Band 13 LTE...if you want the kink to insert your IMEI let me know.

Sure, I'd be interested in the link. Thanks.
I was initially asking the question because I was planning to buy an unlocked version directly from HTC (which, from my understanding, supports the same bands as the AT&T version), but based on the specs I've seen on Rogers' and AT&T's websites, there was no mention of WCDMA band IV on AT&T's site, but there was on Rogers' site, so I opted for the Rogers version.
Link to Check All Bands on your phone before you buy
Here is the LINK:
https://imeidata.net/check
Any seller should be willing to give you the IMEI before you buy so you can verify what the manufacturer says is the GSM, WCDMA & LTE Bands.
Please hit the thanks button if this helps...

Hi guys!
I am about to buy an Honor 9 but checking its specs I have noticed that it doesn't have the bands for LTE in the US. I am going there in a couple of months on holidays and I would like to know if I will be able to use it even on a HSDPA Network.
I have checked frecuencycheck.com but it confused me even more, There is 3G compatible bands but not UMTS Protocols... I don't know...
Could I use it even on 3G (I don't mind 4G/LTE, I am just going on Holidays for a couple of weeks)?
It comes with all bands. You are able to use it in US.
http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_honor_9-8704.php

3G bands HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
4G bands LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800), 38(2600), 40(2300), 41(2500)

the supposed bands are similar to what is on the Honor8Pro. in which case, 2G and 3G should be fine but 4G might not be possible. it also depends on which carrier you use in US later on -- probably your telco choice would be the non CDMA ones -- AT&T and TMo.
anyway, see these two threads:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8-pro/help/using-phone-united-lte-bands-t3633764
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8-pro/help/look-cool-disappointed-t3632889
As long as I will be able to use 3g is ok for me.
I am. Going to read those links you posted. Thanks!!
Hi, i'm about to buy the Honor 9, but I have a problem. I will buy it in Amazon (Europe) and ship it to my country (Argentina) that uses this bands:
2G (EDGE, GSM/GPRS): Bands 850 / 1900 MHz
3G (HSPA+, UMTS/WCDMA): Bands 850 / 1900 MHz
4G (LTE): Bands 4 (AWS o 1700) / 7 (2600) / 28 (APT o 700*)
(the most important band is the B4 AWS, the others are not that important)
And I searched on google and I found differences, some places say it has the b4 band(frequencycheck.com,phonedb.net), others say no (gsmarena)
Amazon says its the model 51091SNW, but assume is the STF-L09 version
So I need your help, if anyone of you has bought this phone in Europe and wants to confirm if it has the band that I need, I would be grateful. Otherwise, I'll have to choose another phone because a phone without 4g nowadays it's not good
Thanks in Advance!!!
I checked the price comparison I usually use and which is usually pretty well informed (this is their English page, the company behind it is originally from Austria):
Frequency bands: GSM (850/900/1800/1900), UMTS (850/900/1900/2100), LTE (B1/B3/B5/B7/B8/B20)
https://skinflint.co.uk/a1638115.html
Same info from my go-to review site (translated from a German review):
Networking: 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac (a/b/g/n/ac), Bluetooth 4.2, GSM 850/900/1800/1900, UMTS B1/B2/B5/B8, LTE B1/B3/B5/B7/B8/B20, Dual SIM, LTE, GPS
https://www.notebookcheck.net/243422.0.html
Both is for the STF-L09, which is sold throughout Europe, so I guess it doesn't matter that both have their info from devices from Germany...
It seems to lack Band 4, and according to gsm arena it does so for all Honor 9 models available
Hi.
is this model (GA02920-US) compatible with EU networks?
The networks in question: 900 (E-GSM) 1800 (DCS) B1 (2100) B8 (900 GSM) B1 (FDD 2100) B38 (TDD 2600) N78 (3500)
Info online is very contradictory.
Thanks
bump.
Searching around, I can't find much about this specific model besides stores that are selling it.
I was able to find https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/7158570#zippy=,pixel which does list all the bands that the pixel 6 supports and from the 3 models listed Model GB7N6, G9S9B, GR1YH, they all line up besides the additional FeliCa for the GR1YH model.
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1663921-REG/google_pixel_6_smartphone_unlocked.html/specs has specific specs for this GA02920-US model and there is also a "Choose Your Country & Carrier" option where you can check the compatibility. From this site, it lists all the same bands from the Google support doc, but I cannot guarantee the validity of the information.
