[Q] Xoom of verizon with the same Modem CDMA like iphone4

I read an article that Motorola Xoom have the same modem than iphone4.
this modem can support HDSPA+ with a simple firmware upgrade. anyone knows that it is possible?
i'll go this weekend to Miami, and i wanna buy a xoom, but i'm not sure if 3G connection will work in my country. I need HDSPA+ compatibility and i want to use xoom to navigate in the car with google navigation.
i know that 3g theetering is possible with another mobile phone "i have a samsung galaxy s" but it's usefull if i need to connect everytime the teether of the mobile phone to the tablet.

Verizon's Xoom and Verizon's iPhone are both CDMA devices, it's almost 100% likely that you will not be able to connect it to another countries carriers - unless they happen to be CDMA as well, but since you mention HSDPA+ - I will assume that they are GSM.
There are 2 iPhones in the US, a GSM iPhone and a CDMA iPhone. Verizon's is CDMA only.
The Xoom and the iPhone could be using the same modem, I don't know the radios off hand, but they will be CDMA radios, not GSM.
Hope this clarifies.

[Q] Xoom 3G (USA) on Dutch (EUR) 3G Network

Hi guys,
First of all my apologies if I couldn't find this question in the current forums. I'm the proud owner of my imported Motorola XOOM 3G 32GB from USA to The Netherlands, and I started reading a lot in the XOOM section of XDA-Devs (already have a HTC HD2 with Android so already got a lot of Droid experience).
I've already rooted (& unlocked??) my XOOM with 1-Click Root & Unlock, but when I plug in my T-Mobile Netherlands SIM card, the tablet keeps hanging on 'Activating your XOOM..' (or something). Why is it called 1-Click Root & Unlock but it doesn't unlock my XOOM? Is it just for USA cellular?
I've also red a lot about the fact that they use other hardware in the USA for 3G data than in de EU (EV-GE(?) vs HSDPA), is this the reason why I can't use my 3G function in European Union? I don't hope so because when that's true, I purchased about 200 euro more on a 3G function which actually don't work here.
Please let me know if it's possible to use the 3G, or tell me the hard and painfull truth that it's not going to work in EUROPE ?
Any h4cks or something would be great!
Let me know and best wishes from the land of wooden shoes, The Netherlands.
Max.

Pretty sure your trying to activate a Verizon 3G version (cdma) on a uk 3G network (gsm). Not possible...at all...period...

[Q] Using your 3g Xoom in Canada w/ Telus

Hey XDA,
I have a 3g Xoom I bought without contract from BestBuy in the USA. I will be living in Canada for 6 months and I would like to activate the data with Telus. I called them but the MEID is "invalid" how can I go about activating my Xoom with a canadian Carrier?
Telus already carries the WiFi xoom but does not have the 3g one "Yet"
thanks

Using ATT skyrocket in Taiwan

I tried search for answers, but no luck.
Story is that I just bought a Skyrocket and cant be happier, but I'm planning to go to Taiwan for a month. I just realized that Taiwan uses UMTS 2100 for 3G and HSPA. I'm getting a lot of different info on the ATT skyrockets.
I'm wondering if I can take this skyrocket to Taiwan and use their 3G/4G networks.
Any input would be helpful.
Best!
edit: I think it will work.

3G or 4G will both work in Taiwan. I was able to use my skyrocket to tether and make skype video calls with no problem.

Did you have to do anything (like switch APNs)? My previous phone (Touch Pro 2) had 2100, but I wasn't able to connect, even though my phone said "3G". My brother's Atrix had the same problem. We couldn't get any data working at all.

Hi, I live in Shanghai, and want to use China Unicom, which uses the 2100 network.
Sounds like from these posts that the Samsung Skyrocket will work here without any problems.
Does it need to be unlocked? Some Skyrocket specs list the 2100 while others don't. That due to ATT trying to discourage others from buying this phone?
Thanks for the info in this thread.

Of course you need it unlocked. I used my unlocked skyrocket last month in my vacation in the Philippines where networks uses 2100 for 3g and 4g.

I just received a Korean version model LG-F510S I purchased on eBay and it receives full 4G LTE using my AT&T SIM card.

Does it have all the att LTE bands or just one?

Getting a little bit impatient here with att, even the s6 is out. Wondering how the LTE coverage with the Korean unlocked model is with att, since its missing some bands. Any experience?

I am getting Band 17 on AT&T in my area with my unlocked Korean version.

I looked up the f510s and it says lte band 1, 3, 5, 7, 8.
Would u mind sharing the link for the one that u purchased?
