I have searched/googled and can't seem to find an answer.... I am moving to the UK in a few months and have an Infuse......I want to know if it will work on the UK 3G? I sent my fiance home with a htc Inspire and come to find out it only works on Edge.....so she sold it and got the GS2.... The Infuse specs have a few more bands than the Inspire but not all the ones the S2 has....so im confuesd......

I think so but I'm not entirely sure. The Inspire was one of the first AT&T phones to lack UMTS2100.

Anybody have any luck porting a Infuse over to Cincinnati Bell?
I seem to only get the Edge network and can't receive MMS (even after trying 247,987 different settings....)
What a fantastic device and I sure would hate to lose it.....

What bands does Cincinatti Bell use for 3G? If they use the same bands as T-Mobile, this would explain the Infuse being stuck at EDGE. There is no way around this.
They use the same as T-Mobile so it will be edge only.
Yeah it is the same as tmobile. 1700/aws is the typical band for their 3g I'm pretty sure.

Gentlemen, thanks for the info.
I was fairly certain that was going to be a hard limitation. I just wanted to run it by my XDA friends before I had a visit to eBay.
I was given this by AT&T as a “gift” if I would stay with them and admittedly it was enticing since I actually found the Infuse as close to perfect for my needs.
Oh well “eBay meet my Infuse…..”
Ps – anyone want to make a recommendation on a close replacement out of these choices (or what to avoid);
HTC Panache
Huawei Ascend
Samsung Vibrant
Samsung Nexus s 3g
Dell Streak 5
Motorola Milestone XT720
Tmobile actually has a goods selection of nice android phones like the gtx2 galaxy s 4 and some others which should work nicley on cincy bell. But if tmobile merges with att idk if they will tell bell to find a new frequency or if since they are local att won't care thinking it won't clog up the data bandwidth too much. Then you'd do all this for nothing you know what I mean lol

If you liked the infuse, the vibrant is going to be very similar, possibly the nexus s as well. Personally, I would grab a tmobile HTC sensation from the marketplace on here or eBay for 350-400 or so and use that.

I would avoid Huawei at all costs. Their policy on updates is, "Want an update? Buy this slightly modified variant of the same device you already own." and "Accessories? What accessories? That dock connector is just there to look pretty and sell tablets to idiots like you that don't know us yet."
Yes, I'm a VERY bitter S7 owner.
Hello everyone,
Quick question about the HTC Sensation Z710A Which can be found here: http://negrielectronics.com/htc-z710a-sensation-850-1900-3g.html
Essentially what I am wondering, is that I know that this phone has the correct bands to be compatible with AT&T 3G, but what I'm wondering is if this is compatible with AT&T "4G" as well (HSPA+)?
I just want to ensure this and clarify, and maybe even someone who is using this phone on AT&T can chime in and let me know. Thanks in advance
Hey Boktai, the answer is yes. The Z710A being a 4G device and with the ATT bands, will get HSPA+. I ran a few speed tests, and my best run was 6.8 down and 1.3 up. The worst was 1.8 down and 1.1 up. It seems to vary, but I'm getting 4G speeds. Depending on the time of day of course. Hope that answers your question.
Wow $700.00 for the sensation!!!
Use coupon sb35offjkh for $35 off on orders over $400. That should bring down price to $663.
Canadagsm has them unlocked for I think $575 CAD (585 USD). Got mine a few weeks ago on sale for $549. Their customer service isn't all that hot, but the price is good.
I can get one for 500 to 550.00 as well in canada

Would the one from T-mobile will work with ATT 3G if I unlock it ? I am afraid it will only show EDGE.

Unfortunately it will not AT&T 3G only edge. That's the Z710E model. Your best bet is to find an unlocked Bell Canada Z710A. It's what I have.

Here is the one I ordered:
http://www.canadagsm.ca/phone_details.php?product_id=snp1764 It was $549 Canadian
Note of caution though, their customer service is not that great and since it's off carrier HTC does not warranty it as of now. If there are problems with the device, you have to go through Canadagsm who are also known as SNTraders and they send it on to HTC. Kind of a mess.
rejoice!
htc sensation in Bell-RockstarMobile on ebay....search for it, its like 485 ca
kinda cheap....me thinks.
can't paste link sry.
Does anyone know of any more good links? I'm trying to find a Z710A for AT&T under 600$. Can anyone help?
Edit....... nvm
Hi all, what the diff between the Z710A and Z710E?
Tks
EDIT: i guess the difference is on the 3g network right?
Z710A 850/1900
Z710E 900/1700/2100
Thinking of buying a new/2nd hand phone and was lookin at the evo 4g, it sez its locked to sprint network-I assume this is a u.s.a network as iv not heard of it in the UK? If it is,is it possible to unlock it to use in the UK on T-mobile...if not,is that the case with all evo 4g mobiles?.....If anyone has any better ideas for me I.e different phone or you have one of similar spec for sale please let me know, is the evo a lot better than the galaxy s i9000 not the s2. And if you've used 4g,isit really 10 times faster than average 3g..thnx in advance.
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
The evo 4g cannot, it does not use a sim card. If you want to import a phone I'd first suggest looking through t-mo US phones then last resort would be ATT but you wouldn't get 4g with an art phone or even 3g, just edge.
OK, not even sure if this is the right place to post this question or not... But I am switching to T-Mobile (Small Business Plan $49.95 unlimited plan without phones) So I am buying my own phones.. I am trying to figure out what phones I can get that will do there 4G network, I think the network is HSPA+
I have been looking on eBay for phones, found a bunch of unlocked phones from over seas, just not sure as far as what ones will do the 4G, they list 2G and 3G and the different bands but have 4G in the title...
I am tired of big phones, I have the HTC Evo no, I want to go back to one the size of my old HTC Inc....
I wish there where career specific forums on here. Thanks for any help!!

Most unlocked phones from overseas will not get AWS bands which t-mobile uses. The Galaxy Nexus will get 4G..but for the size you are looking for, I would go with an HTC Amaze. Make sure it is the T-mobile version.

Thanks. I actually have my friends HTC Amaze phone that I was testing to make sure T Mobile service was better then Sprint in all the places I go (It is much better). It is a little big... The Samsung Blaze isn't to bad, but feels a little cheap...

If you want a high quality decently specced phone, you aren't going to be able to find anything smaller than the amaze...
The Blaze seams pretty good as far as speeds go. The Amaze feels alot better because it is heaver... I guess worst case I could just go with the Blaze.. To bad I couldn't get one of those Casio G Shock phones to work 4G, that thing looks indestructible!!
I decided to go with the Samsung Exhibit ll, it looks about the same size as my old HTC inc
Hi I've got a HTC One X UK Rooted and I want to use this in the USA on the T-Mobile network but the 4G or GPRS will not work, has anybody done the MOD as done on the HTC Sensation.

Just go to AT&T...You will get useless 2G/EDGE on Tmobile(USA). Or you can just sell the HOX and buy a Tmobile phone.

I'd rather keep my Quad core HTC One X and get 4G on T-Mobile but thanks
But you won't get 4G/HSPA with a Euro HOAX, you need the US Tmobile 4G device...Your phone can get ATT 4G though, and ATT compatible phones don't get 3G/4G on Tmobile(hence me mentioning AT&T).

The S4 CPU in the AT&T version of the One X is actually faster and more power efficient than the Tegra 3. Heck, Nvidia has gotten lots of criticism for not releasing the source code (or something like that) for their Tegra CPUs, so I think the best thing you can do is trade your European HOX for the AT&T version (and if you decide to switch carriers as well, you'll get LTE too).
