[Q] 3g frecuencies can be changed??? - T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide

I have a t-mobile mytouch 4g slide my brother brought my from usa and i use it in argentina. The thing is that 3g frecuencies used by claro cel provider are 850/1900. is there a way to change my cel to cover these 2 frecuencies? It has 900/1700/2100. Please help me!!! for now i can only use 2g but it's too slow.

No way that I have ever seen.

The frequencies are determined by the radio chipset installed in the device. There is no way available to a consumer to change the radio chipset.

[Q] Slight Problem

I want to buy an Inspire 4G, and i'm from Romania.
I would like to use it in the Orange Romania network. But someone pointed out that i most certainly cannot use the 3G and 4G functions of this phone in this network because of different frequencies.
How can i find out what frequencies the phone operates on for 3G and 4G and what frequencies my Romanian network operates on for the same services?
I haven't ordered the phone yet, but i will not order it if i can't use it in full swing. Can someone clarify the frequency and usage thing for me?
Thank you.
Is there a reason you don't want the Desire HD? Orange Romania uses 900/2100 for HSPA+ (3G/4G) and 1800 for GSM (2G), all included in the DHD. The DHD also has a front facing camera. With an Inspire you would only be able to use 1800 GSM.
I found all this with Google.

Yeah, it's 100$ more expensive and i can't afford it.
So my only chance for Romania is the Desire HD? No way i could get the Inspire working? How about the Motorola Defy?
If i buy this Motorola Defy: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280658487905&category=9355&_trksid=p5197.c0.m619 can i use it at 100% in Romania?
The radios in the Defy would work on Orange in Romania. I don't know much about it but it has a smaller screen and uses motoblur.

HTC sensation 4G in Rogers

Can a tmobile sensation 4g be used on Rogers Canada with a connection greater then 2G ? I only see a listing of wcdma or gsm under mobile network setting. If not can the radio be flashed to work with hspda or is it a hardware limitation?
Unfortunately not since T-Mobile uses a different 3G frequency which is the same as Wind or Moblicity. You would need a Bell or Virgin Sensation to get 3G on Rogers

Sensation 4g and europe

Hello Guys! I'm looking for an information, I'd like to buy an Android phone from Orlando for use it in Italy, i saw the Sensaion 4g from T-Mobile but i have a question: Does the Sensation 4g works in Italy? I think that yes but i'm no sure, and another question, Does the normal Sensation's rom works in 4g version from T-Mobile?
Thanks!
Yes you can. The 4G has ALL the European bands plus an extra band (1700 MHz) for T-Mobile USA.
You will have a lot of useless programs onboard (That you can't use because they are tied to a T-mobile subscription or network) but nothing that can't be solved with a good flashing
I m also using an sensation 4g in India without any problem,
Capychimp is also using US Sensation 4G in Sweden no problems 3G work

HTC EVO 3D - 4G connection UK

Hi.
My htc has my T-Mobile sim card, so I assume its GSM phone. I use phone in UK.
Question:
Does HTC evo 3D have 4G connection or not? nobody is certain.. some even say it has 3.5G. what the..
If My phone is 4G compatible, I also heard that UK does not have 4G network. Is that true also?
And if that is true, is it possible to break my phones software so badly, that it would use x2 3G connections?

According to specs the evo 3D can use 4G but uk firmware doesn't so you would need to change its rom and wait til uk gets 4G.
Uk won't have 4G for another year or so and even then only in major cities.
And no you can't use two 3G connections on it to get higher speeds as you can't get two connections on one phone.

I live in London, and the phone originaly was from Singapore. Does that info do any good?
Not really as London won't have 4G until at least end this year as ofcom just announced orange / t-mobiles parent company can repurpose their 2G masts to become lte ones and that could take a year but southwark in London did become first uk area to get 4G last week so if your in the right area then its possible but unlikely.
Singapore has 4G so your phone probably supports it but uk won't have it yet so in a year yes you should be able to use it in London. Sooner if your an orange or tmobile customer as they will likely repurpose their city masts first.

dont forget that 4g is just a general term - which kind of 4g will be used? cdma evo 3g supports WiMax, gsm evo 3d afaik supports only hdspa (3.5g) but maybe there's the possibility to activate wimax - yet if your carrier roll out LTE you are still out of luck (and wimax has been a failure, nobody is adopting it anymore).
btw even lte has more than one substandard so even lte phones can be incompatible when moved from one carrier to another.

In uk it refers to lte as trialed by a couple of mobile providers last year. Uk uses gsm not cdma network.

Wdcma is not cdma. They have a similar name but you cannot use a cdma phone on any uk network. Please read link below to see for yourself that wcdma is completely different.
Uk uses gsm and then wcdma for the 3G but not cdma which is not in use here.

I know. I am not using a CDMA phone.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW
I think there's been a misunderstanding as your reply saying uk used wcdma and gsm followed my own saying it does not use cdma so I thought you were meaning cdma was same as wcdma.
I was just trying to explain we don't use cdma as that is a competitor to gsm and cdma only phones won't work in uk.

Thank you guys for your Activity, but as a newbie, I dont know what they really mean.
So you saying that network 3 is running WCDMA? Which is what exactly?
and what is the CDMA? Is it a simless phone? And would 1 work in Europe countrys like UK?
You see, my evo 3D is running original android software, and all I could see in my notification bar, its allways running "G" icon, very VERY rarely I see 3G icon.. so thats why I was thinking, why I have never ever seen 4G connection icon, whiles I saw Galaxy having nice 3G connection icon in all the time..
Is it possible to jailbrake my 1.49.0011 GSM revolutionary method, and can I install a good custom rom that would force 3G connection all the time?

It seems to be a Band problem ....
your Sensation XE , works on 3G bands 900/1700/2100
And the CLARO company from Argentina , works on bands 850/1900
So there are not compatible between them.
Before you buy a phone, you should check if the bands of the phone and your company are compatible at all.
Is there any chance to change the bands of the cellphone, so it will work on my carrier 3g network?
You can't change the phone bands
Sell it and buy another phone
