I have an opportunity for a really good priced P6800. The seller does not know which carrier it is...? Here is what I was told:
These are the networks that the tab will work with.
GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
Please let me know.
Much appreciated!

Any GSM/HSPA network, which means about 99.99% of all networks in the world. Since you live in the USA, it means AT&T and T-Mobile (on most areas, in some places T-Mobile still didn't move their 3G band to the international standard frequency of 2.1GHz).

what is the phone bands in 2g network and what in 3g network ?
thanks !!
I believe these are accurate.
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 900 / 1700 / 2100
You will be able to get 3G on T-Mobile in the US and on European networks, but it will not work on other North American carriers like AT&T, Rogers, Telus, etc. On those networks, you will get standard GSM/EDGE (2G) service.
it has 2100 in 3g for sure ?

Yep. Check out the product specs from the HTC website. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to the section titled Network.

I have a T-Mobile Garminfone A50 in Canada.
Here's the question: the Nuvifone A50 has different specs than then USA released Garminfone a50. Namely the HSPA frequencies.
the Nuvifone A50: "Networks: HSDPA Cat 8 7.2Mbps, HSPA / WCDMA 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100, GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900, GPRS EDGE Class 12"
From T-Mobile USA: Networks: GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900, GPRS EDGE Class 12, UMTS HSPA 2100/1700, HSDPA Cat 8, 7.2 Mbps.
Looks to me as though the European Nuvifone A50 supports HSPA 850/900/1900 where the T-mobile USA one does not.
So, will rooting permit the T-Mobile phone to use the full spectrum of frequencies as the A50 does in Europe? I need the 850/1900 MHz range to get coverage where i live and i really like this phone and would rather not throw it in the garbage.
seems to me that it should be possible. i would think that they are the same phone just tmobile has locked those frequencies somehow? I'm new to the forum and hacking and would really appreciate any help/tips/tricks. basically the same question was posted by Spazmogen a year ago but i couldn't find any replies. Please help if you can! thanks
Had anybody got any further on this issue?
So far all my searches have come up with nothing certain. There is a lot of speculation about how the phones are built but that is about it. It will really suck if this phone wont handle 850 Mhz! (Au phone here btw)
Any gurus out there with more of an idea?
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.
I have a question about 3g frequencies among all carriers. If I have a device for example which supports these Frequencies
Device:
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
And say I wanna use this device on T-mobile
T-Mobile USA 850/1900 for 2G/EDGE - 1700/1900 3G/HSPA
And I am only receiving EDGE on T-mobiles network is this because I am missing the 1700 frequency on my device? For all carriers listed 3g frequencies must the phone your using have both those frequencies to be able to get a 3g signal?
Will this phone or a variant of work on T Mobile or Metro PCS? I noticed there appeared to be some spectrums missing when I look at the specs, but I am not sure if they were older spectrums that are going to be phased out slowly. Any help would be appreciated. I'm also open to suggestions on other 5.9 inch phones that would work better on T Mobile / Metro PCS.
I have a D838 this have:
GSM / HSPA / LTE
2G bands GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G bands HSDPA 900 / 2100
4G bands LTE 1800 / 2600 (Bands 3, 7)
