This rom is totally different from the UK version which I have on my D2. Notice the option to use 3G 1900/850. Does this mean the D2 has a way to access those bands in the US already in the hardware??
Wow, good eye. I switched it (WWE edition rom) to the 1900+850 one but no 3G icon for me. I know it is finnicky in my area so possibly it might work. If it does then I might not sell it after all.
please 3g.......
I know! That is exactly what I am thinking. If there is a way to turn on those bands I will hold on to this one for a bit longer. There is a chance they are different like with the X1a and X1i, but I really hope not. Once we get HardSpl I want to get my hands on that Rom.
I saw those bands. I went to AT&T store and tried a card from an employee there. NO 3G. The bands being in there do make me wonder if 3G will work but all say it is Hardware related and not Software. That is true but the Radio could have those bands but they are just disabled. Was this not the case for the diamond or something and HTC had on the website a ROM to make it QuadBand rather than triband. How it originally shipped?
The other discussion is here.
I would like to know exacly what are the problems that could happend if I use an unlocked Telus TP2 on the rogers GSM network. I already know about the problem with the phone only running on EDGE. Are there other things I should know?

That's th only "problem".. I'm using the phone on Fido which is basically Rogers and I have no issues at all. Just to let you know though that the EDGE speed is surely slower than that of 3G but you can barely notice the difference when browing using Opera (thanks to Opera for that). Everything else runs smooth, MSN, streaming, even video streaming and skype using edge ofcourse.
BTW it's Rogers not Regers
typo ! sorry!
Anyway, saw a good price for an unlocked GSM HTC touch pro...

For those in canada, it might be a better idea than buying a Telus CDMA one.

Yeah I would recommend the normal version since it is already unlocked and you have a better variety or ROM's. But the downside is that the European version is more expensive. I would recommend ebay though or local deals if you can find them.. better than a website if you don't trust them.
I saw one of these in Korea but couldn't figure out if it had the appropriate bands to work on AT&T. It looks like a slight bigger s2. Beautiful.
Anyone out there got one working on AT&T? If yes, I'm amazed that no one is importing them.

Skyrocket will have ICE on the next ROM but is not pure AOSP, as it will be mixed with TWlauncher as typical by Samsung

This isn't the same phone, the korean S2 HD LTE has the same 720p screen as the galaxy nexus.
ahh my bad, you are right, i didn't read the HD portion
yes, the HD version of SGS2 is the basically the same as NG, but with the added SD card support
i'd have purchased that phone if they made it available with 1700/2100
but the SGS2 HD works just fine for ATT 850/1900
Where have you seen it has the 850 band. Does anyone k ow anyone who has one working on AT&T?
just google up the full specifications
you can do 3G
but you wont get LTE
The Rogers Samsung LTE supports 1700 2100. Its just not HD though.

that's the same as skyrocket SGH-i727R = SGH-i727
i misread as well on my first reply
the normal LTE is not the same as HD LTE
That's just the point... It's not the Same as the LTE. and obviously I have googled it... The info just isn't there. That's why I'm trying to find out if anyone has the HD version working in the US... on AT&T .
Anyone?

What info are you looking for exactly? Just firsthand experience with it? The bands are there, so it should work fine.

Don't think the LTE will be compatible.
Seeing that its only sold in korea i just don't see it having much of a following on here, forget about tons of roms let alone cyanogen mod for it.

Korea LTE runs on 800 Mhz
ATT LTE runs on 700 Mhz
the SGS2 HD LTE is made for Korea 800 Mhz

My simple question is, will it work 3G and H on AT&T. ????
(I know Lte won't work. Same as the nexus without Lte!)

Holy run on sentence batman
What research did you do? G2x has bands I and IV. Telcel uses II and V.
Not the best with grammer I looked up the frequencies I believe it was both 1700?

Where'd you find that? Telcel's website says otherwise.
so the tmo part is easy i went to tmo then i searched but couldnt find anything directly from telcel but i did find this site and a few others that all matched i cant put a link cause im a new guy but its gsmworld
im definetly a noob but it seems the numbers line up that telcel uses 850/1900/2100 and the g2x supports them the band I and IV i dont know much about. Just thought if the numbers matched id be gtg!!! hopefully i can get some luvin and somebody can fix me up and not tell me im a fool!!

From Telcel's website: "TELCEL's network is 1900 Mhz for GSM and 850 Mhz for 3G"
850Mhz UMTS (band V) is not supported for the g2x. In short, you're stuck on edge with that phone.
I have some choice words for that setup bit don't think.xda would approve!! I'm still slightly confused with the diiference on the bands and bandwidths they should.make the numbers not the same so a following like me can understand easier! well thank you vet much for your help

Hi guys.I have simple mobile sim card (which works with T-mobile towers) and I get galaxy sii gt-i9100 (universal version). the problem is I'm getting 2g (edge) speed only, I read that you can flash your radio firmware after rooting to get HSMA+ mode then you'll have the 3g\4g internet.I already rooted my device but I don't know what to do now!
please anyone can help?
I need some help about that too, I wish this post had more attention, and replies. So I'm kinda moving it up right now.
Btw it might be impossible for us to get 4g, but I'll be happier when I get 3g instead of 2g. so, I'm looking for a solution too, I'll keep you posted if I find anything helpful.

Unfortunately there is no solution for that. I already sold out my phone and got new Galaxy s3 (T-MOBILE VERSION) from ebay for 519$ and I'm enjoying the 4G bless..if you need any further assistance I'll be more than glad to help.
