[Q] I9023 on T-MO US Updated - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I bought the I9020 at Best Buy when it was first released. The phone was great. When the HTC Sensation came out, I gave my Nexus to the wife and bought it. Big mistake as I can't stand this phone.
Last week I bought the I9023 on 1saleaday and will be getting it Monday the 10th. I have a few questions. From what I have read, I should have no problems using this phone on T-MO US with 3G, correct?
If I don't like the SLCD compared to the SAMOLED, could I make an nandroid on the I9020 running Oxegen and restore it to the I9023 to give that one to the wife?
Update 10/10
I got the phone and I can't be happier. The phone works fine on T-MO's us 3G. Out of the box it it had 2.3.4 and prompted me to update to 2.3.6
The phone looks really good with the SLCD, way better than the Sensations. Although the blacks are nothing like the SAMOLED, the whites are very impressive compared. While comparing the two together, I notice the text on the SAMOLED is just a bit fuzzier. NFC works fine.
I had read somewhere that the back plate from the I9020 would fit, this is not true. Overall, it's great to have a Nexus again. If there is any additional information you would like, please let me know and I will try and provide.

Nandroid no. Looks like it will work with T-Mobile's AWS 3G. If you liked the screen on the Nexus you gave to your wife, and you didn't like the screen on the sensation, you wont like the slcd.

The ONLY Nexus s that can do 3G on T-Mobile is the i9020t.

Empirical proof as to why? The i9023 supposedly supports the 1700 band (3G downlink) so why couldn't it possibly work?

It needs to do 1700 and 2100 for both the up and down link to get 3g service.

Well, I was going off the following info,

"3G Network HSDPA 900 / 1700 / 2100"

If it doesn't work out I have a 9020t that I'd like to trade for a sensation...

I don't see why it wouldn't work then - it appears to support the bands for both uplink and downlink. AFAIK the only difference between the i9020 and the i9023 is the SLCD in place of the SAMOLED screen.

That 3G information cannot be correct, or else that phone would NOT do 3G on AT&T, which it obviously does. I suspect they copy-pasted the i9020T specs. Lazy bastards
EDIT: this site's info is probably more accurate - http://nettailer.co.uk/products/Mob...s-S-smartphone-WCDMA-UMT?prodid=561041&info=2

I hate getting conflicting information. According to this Samsung site, it does have the right bands. I don't know what to believe...

The i9023 was sold internationally - the rest of the world almost exclusively operates on the AWS 3G bands (outside of canada). The FCC filing listed it with AWS 3G bands as well. I suspect nettailer.co.uk has the incorrect information.
The i9020a does 3G on AT&T, why do you believe the i9023 does?

Maybe I was mistaken. I thought before i9020a, the people were using i9023 on AT&T in North America. But maybe not.
I also thought AT&T and Europe tended to use the same 3G bands whereas T-Mobile's was different, but again, maybe I was mistaken.
To the OP, I would definitely listen to krohnjw over me!

The i9020a was released in Canada for the Canadian carriers using 850/1900 there and was being imported into the US prior to the AT&T release.
You'll see that for 3G 2100 is really what's used most throughout Europe (where the i9023 was sold).

its not that crazy of a question nowadays with carrier branded phones being so close to one another. you can actually flash a tmobile radio onto a skyrocket and have 4g hspa-dc through tmobile. but even if the infuse hardware was capable of tmobile bands (which it probably isnt), theres no tmobile version of the infuse inwhich to pull a radio. so the answer atleast for now is no.

P6200 US 3G At&t or T-Mobile?

I'm currently deployed in Afghanistan and ordered the 6200 to work with GPRS out here, sadly enough that's the only reliable data connection available. I googled at&t and T-Mobile frequency bands but I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking at.
Could someone please let me know which carrier I'll be able to use this on with 3G when I return home next year? Thanks!
Sent from my E4GT using xda premium
As long as it is sim unlocked then it should (technically) work with either one on 3G since AT&T uses the 850/1900MHz frequency and T-Mobile uses the 1700/2100MHz. The model you have (P6200) is listed for 900/1900/2100MHz frequencies for 3G.
It will work on both of them under 2G for sure since it is quad-band GSM.

This is just a guess based on what little I know about these things so I can't guarantee this.

At&t UMTS Bands

Anyone have info on the t-mobile version's UMTS Bands?
I know during FCC testing I heard something about 850 / 1900 being included but I'm looking for confirmation.
I have the Black MAO model with just 850 it seems to work fine in NYC on At&t. I know with the Amaze the Bands werent advertised but 850 / 1900 was included in the tmobile Amaze anyway.

[Think Tank] Internation Has No Tmo 4G support, BUT?

So the International Version has no 4G support that has been established; however, their could be a possible way to still get 4G. I have seen with the SG2 International and The SG2 Tmo if you flash the modem of the tmo one onto the international they got 4G on Tmo. I have also read that i think it was the nexus or galaxy note or something had a locked band that they unlocked.... I heard that a radio probably wont change anything but does anyone else have any ideas?

As far as I understand, it's not. Check www.htc.com/www and look at the One S specifications.
Doesn't support 1700 AWS bands nor does it have the 1900 mHz (AT&T 3G, soon to be T-Mobile HSPA+ as well).
A software hack won't fix bands that don't exist in the hardware.

The 850 mHz band is also AT&T 3G, but it is not as widespread around the country as the 1900 mHz band. So, you're getting AT&T 3G on 850 mHz because that is available on the One S.

Again, because they contain the 1700 AWS band to get T-Mobile 3G/HSPA+.
A software fix cannot fix what the hardware lacks in the International One S. I'm not sure you could coerce HTC into an exchange because they'll probably tell you that the detailed specifics are available on their website and you should always check with your carrier before buying an international device.
Your best bet would be to return it directly and buy the T-Mobile US model if you'd like T-Mobile service. Hopefully they'll get the black version, if not, sorry mate. Sometimes you have to choose carrier over design, or simply a different phone model.

So people wouldn't buy one to use it for a carrier it wasn't meant to be on? If the band is only in the T-Mobile version and people are on T-Mobile, their only choice is to buy it from T-Mobile if they want 3G.
T-Mobile probably doesn't want people buying their flagship off contract.

It's not pentaband, but the chip DOES support both 850 Mhz and 1700 Mhz (strange, I know). I believe it's actually quadband WCDMA which means it'll work on Wind/Mobilicity (I have the Telus version too and use it on Wind currently and Rogers prior). It won't work in Europe though, if you travel a lot because I believe they use 900 Mhz out there, which is the band this phone doesn't support.
I've attached proof that it does work on Wind with data, but I don't know how to prove I'm using the Telus model... Just trust me I guess?
AFAIK: Only TMOUS' One S is pentaband.
Check the first table here for frequencies supported on different versions: http://www.anandtech.com/show/5868/htc-one-s-review-international-and-tmobile/7
Thanks for getting back to me =D I had looked around and found differing reports some sites would only have the international one and some would only have the T-mobile one.
Well i guess her's is not Pentaband but I don't mine losing Eurpoean roaming it has the ones i need (AWS) :laugh:

PJ40110 should be written inside the SIM cover thing. It was on mine. I did a lot of digging around to find out whether or not my phone supported AWS. I really hated being with Rogers so I switched to Wind, but I wanted to make sure my dream phone would work before I switched.
I live in Ohio. Here we have T-Mobile and local Cincinnati Bell. Cincinnati Bell gets all their phones from T-Mobile. So if you can get your hands on a Cincinnati Bell One S, that is also pentaband. I have one.

This is misleading information as it is more correctly quadband WCDMA. Pentaband WCDMA would include 900 Mhz as well, which the T-Mobile One S does not have.

I don't believe this is the case either. My research has yielded that the only FCC clearance this phone has is 850/1700/1900/2100 MHz.

I don't know who manbearpig is, but he is wrong. The Telus One S (and all Canadian One S') only support 850/1700/1900/2100. That's 4, not 5 bands. You can look inside your One S SIM cover right now, it says PJ40110 underneath the FCC label.
The Telus One S will NOT work on European WCDMA networks. It is pentaband GSM but not for the WCDMA radio.
If you can show me how the Canadian One S is pentaband, then I will yield. I'm not trying to be a ****, but I've done my research and these are the results and I'm trying to make it clear for anyone who reads this. I hate it when I find misleading info on the internet.

I don't know who manbearpig is, but he is wrong. The Telus One S (and all Canadian One S') only support 850/1700/1900/2100. That's 4, not 5 bands. You can look inside your One S SIM cover right now, it says PJ40110 underneath the FCC label.
The Telus One S will NOT work on European WCDMA networks. It is pentaband GSM but not for the WCDMA radio.

You could be right. Here's the thread where manbearpig was selling his Telus One S and people asked him questions about whether it is truly pentaband.

This is the phone he claims to have: http://www.canadagsm.ca/HTC/HTC-One-S-Unlocked-OEM-AWS-Penta-Band/
You could ask the new owner of the phone to check the box, the T-Mobile One S has the bands listed on the box.

I'm not sure that is exactly the phone he has/had as I was going to buy it from him until he told me it is the silver/blue version. The canadagsm site only lists black as available as far as I can tell. MBP did not say that's where he got it, somebody else posted that link inferring it is the same one. Personally, I am betting it is only a physically unbranded T-mobile US version running an unbranded ROM
I'll PM the new owner later and ask him to check the box.
Edit: PM sent.

Whatever it is...it works on WIND
Hi Peops,
Greetings from Can-eh-da!
Thanks to a few postings I saw up in here, and a sweet pre-Christmas deal going on at Wind Mobile, I decided to take a $25 non-refundable SIM card bet on the information posted on these forums, specifically that unlocked HTC One-S phones with the PJ40110 model number *may* work on WIND because it supports AWS.
Using thread #13 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1673378&page=2, I found out I might have a ONe-S that works on Wind...I was right!
Hope this helps someone the way I was helped!
Tske care, eh!
