T-mobile UK, will it work?

If i buy the Droid 2 Global from America and unlock it, will the 3G/UMTS work with my T-mobile UK sim.
Frequencies are: My current UK T-Mobile Pulse which of course works fine GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 HSDPA 900 / 2100
Droid 2 Global GSM 850/ 900/ 1800/ 1900 UMTS: 850/ 1900/ 2100
is the omission of the 900mhz UMTS band a problem?

Need a quick answer about GSM networks..

Well I have a Desire S at the moment , it runs on Orange Israel.
I am looking to buy a SGS II T989 from the marketplace here but it says that it runs on :
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100
While Orange Israel runs on :
GSM 900/1800 frequency and UMTS technology.
When I installed new rom on my Desire S it asked me what carrier I use , I picked Orange(3g) so I assume that I need a 3g phone that runs on gsm 900/1800 right? Or the SGS II T989 will work on Orange Israel?
Thanks for answers.

As you listed the frecuencies...
With at least one frequency compatible it will work.
It's only a few contries that use 850/1900 and your new Samsung will work on these countries either.

All carrier's in Israel use 2100mhz for HSDPA /HSPA+ ("3.5G") though some also use 850mhz as well like pelephone and celcom.

[Q] Euro & Asian LTE hardware differences?

I noticed that there are differences in the radio frequencies used between the Euro and Asian LTE C525U HTC One SV's as follows:
2G Network
GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network
HSDPA 900 / 1900 / 2100 (Europe)
HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100 (Asia)
4G Network
LTE 800 / 1800 / 2600 (Europe)
LTE 1800 / 2600 (Asia)
What I was wondering are these difference actually in the hardware between the 2 models or is it just software or ROM that is on them. Such that if you had the Asian model and you were in Europe could you just flash the European LTE RUU and then have the EU frequencies on the phone instead of the Asian ones. This would be for an unrooted phone.

AT&T LG G3 Supported Frequencies?

I want to know the actual frequencies (MHZ) which are supported by the AT&T LG G3. Can we unlock it so its 3G/4G is usable in Europe and Asia?

A simple google will show you the bands of the D850.
But the bands are there you can't change them. Meaning you can't unlock bands which are not there.

Does the Skyrocket have a 1900 LTE Band?

From the [REF] 1-stop Thread:
Skyrocket's bands are:
i727(r) freg's:
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network LTE 700 MHz Class 17 / 1700 / 2100
It looks like the Skyrocket doesn't use 1900 on LTE? Is that correct?
The reason I ask is because I'm on T-Mobile, and in my area, I can't get 4G inside some of the coverage map. I am assuming that I don't get Band 2 for T Mobile, which uses 1900 Mhz PCS. However, Tmobile also uses 1900 for 2G and 3G, which the Skyrocket supposedly supports. Am I missing something? Thanks. :good:
Tmobile uses:
LTE Frequencies:
1700 MHz & 2100 MHz AWS band 4
1900 MHz PCS band 2 (in refarmed areas)
Lower 700 MHz band 12 (in development) / in service in selected areas
3G/4G Frequencies (WCDMA):
1700 MHz & 2100 MHz AWS band 4
1900 MHz PCS band 2 (in refarmed areas)
2G Frequencies (GSM/GPRS/EDGE):
1900 MHz PCS band 2
