Okay I am in the USA. I am not on T-Mobile but on Att. I am currently using N1. I can leave Att for as specific reason. I know Samsung galaxy s 2 is available but I refused to buy Samsung. I love HTC. After purchasing my N1 I am HTC for life.
I know that carriers in Australia and Att in the US have the same 3G band. I was wondering if there are any news about quad band 3g sensation out there. I would absolutely pick up it I its released. Thx advance.

anyone here use a euro Sensation in the US? what carrier are you using and do you get 3G?
thank you in advance!
The US and EU are the same so you shouldn't have any issues and it will run at 4G.
And btw, Welcome to USA

If it uses the same bands as the US version it should work for T-Mobile and Simple Mobile(prepaid mvno that uses t-mobiles tower).
Both gets 4G where its available.

yup tmobile sells z710e and from your signature i can tell yours is z710e so there you have it!
Europe has GSM band. Don't think they use that in USA. But I heard att and T-Mobile should work though.

I took my EU Sensation to Florida in Septemeber - bought a tmobile SIM and had it up and running within a few hours. The initial problem that I had was that my phone was registered with tmobile in the UK - so the tmobile apps didn't work in the US with the help of tech support they registered the phone with themselves and I was able to use the tmobile apps including the $1.34 for internet per day which you have to activate daily.
Of course, now that I'm back in the UK - my tmobile apps don't work here but I don't need them here.

I believe that T-Mobile US is the same as Euro based phones, i.e. uses the same bands, 900Mhz, and AWS. Bell Canada and AT&T US use 850MHz which isn't compatible. They're both GSM for Voice, the data frequencies are different though.
Please correct if I've got that wrong. I know I looked up some of this and it all got scary.
There are various posts on the subject.
I found this so you can plug the county in and see what's compatibile.

(900MHz) http://www.gsmnation.com/htc-sensation.html
EDIT: Why is life so complicated ? I thought we had it simple now, guess again. At least Pan Europe there is one standard (or so I believe).
Have fun.
thanks for all your input guys! i guess T-Mo is the way to go. my wife said that when she was back in the US (Hawaii and NY), she was not getting 3G on T-Mo while she was there.
could that just be that we don't have a 3G plan?
Hey I was wondering if I bought an One S unbranded would it be able to get 4G? or would I be better off just buying the T-Mo version?
AFAIK There is only Tmobile that supports 4G networks.. Perhaps you should look at the specs of a Tmobile 4G One S and compare it to a Unbranded One S..
if they are the same, Get the cheaper one, You can always remove bloatware and make a branded phone UNbranded
You need to buy the US Tmobile version for it to work on "4G", the Euro version does not have the right bands to work on Tmo US.

This.
Hello all. I've been looking everywhere to find out if I will get HSPA+ or 3g or Edge with an unlocked One S on AT&T in the US. What all is compatible with this phone were it unlocked? Anyone with AT&T with some insight? Thanks.
One s will get hspa in att since it has 1900 band.

You can also flash a euro baseband or even a One X(L) baseband (evita) to it as I have mine.
Hello,
I'm using the U11 currently through Verizon in the US with no issues, running Oreo. I'm about to travel with my wife to Germany and the Verizon planner doesn't recognize my device. My wife has an HTC 10 which will work but I was curious, will mine work with their travel pass?
Thanks

If its cdma then it might not work as eu networks are all gsm.
If its gsm then you're best calling Verizon for advice as they might have their own roaming rules.
