[Q] Does Nexus 5 (D820) work in South Korea? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can I use the unlocked Nexus 5 North America (D820) version in South Korea? Nexus 5's network spec is:
GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
CDMA: Band Class: 0/1/10
WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/4/5/6/8/19
LTE: Bands: 1/2/4/5/17/19/25/26/41

I guess that depends on your meaning of "work" -
UMTS should work and LTE might work depending:

Thanks shotta35! I listed the UMTS and LTE networks in South Korea below. I am still a little confused on how to know if the device will be compatible to any of the carriers in Korea. I am a novice and I really don't understand what "bands", "UMTS", "GSM", etc. are. I see that some "bands" match with the D820 device, but the frequencies seem different (e.g. 2100 UMTS in South Korea). I appreciate your help!

Works great on SK Telecom. I cannot speak to Olleh KT or LG U+.
It even comes with the correct APN settings for SKT prebuilt in.

I know this is an old thread, but are you getting LTE speeds on SK?

I can't speak from personal experience, but since the bands match, you definitely would (and it sounds like the correct APNs are there by default).

It should.

I can't seem to get it to work on U+ in South Korea. I keep getting a failed registration. When I try to manually input the U+ APN it keeps deleting itself with a T mobile sim. With a U+ SIM, it just won't connect.

[Q] LTE bands-software or hardware limitation?

I got a US Nexus 5 D820-But i do not live in the US (didn't know about LTE bands limitations)
the N5 D820 LTE only works in the US - the N5 D821 LTE works in rest of the world.
North America (D820) Nexus 5 model:
GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
CDMA: Band Class: 0/1/10
WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/4/5/6/8/19
LTE: Bands: 1/2/4/5/17/19/25/26/41
Outside North America (D821) Nexus 5 model:
GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/4/5/6/8
LTE: Bands: 1/3/5/7/8/20
Are these LTE Bands limited by software or hardware? can i make my device work in LTE outside the US? thanks.
Hardware and no.
Actually the bands for d820 listed above are wrong. Even Googles own site appears to be wrong. The wtr1605l radio is the first to be capable of supporting 7 bands but Google list 9. The box of the d820 is more accurate

Band 2 (PCS A-F) is a subset of band 25 (PCS A-G) and band 5 (CL850) is a subset of band 26 [eSMR 800 + CL850] so it does indeed support 7 bands.

I do not believe you will have any problems with LTE on those networks.

The following is the difference between D820 and D821(what i have), so should i go with ATT or Tmobile? i will be staying in LA area.

You will not get LTE from either ATT or Tmobile as the Tmobile uses Band 4 AWS for LTE while ATT mostly uses Band 17 700B+C, Band 2 PCS A-F, Band 4 AWS, and some Band 5 CL850.
WCDMA HSPA+ will be fine. T-mobile runs HSPA+21 while ATT runs HSPA+14.4. Both have a day to day prepaid service that you can use to test them out before you choose.
Sorry, I was wrong. Both AT&T and T-Mobile use Band 4 ( and AT&T has band 17) for LTE. I was mistakenly considering only the network frequencies, which was wrong when considering LTE. You won't get LTE on either carrier with the D821, and can only get DC-HSDPA with T-Mobile.
Sorry for the misinformation.
thanks alot all, so there are two options on tmobile for day to day pre pay, will the $3 option work on my international version N5 (D821)? i only see either 2g or 4g in Tmobile? no 3g in tmobile? i am kind of lost on this. (all i need is faster internet on my N5, whats the best option for me to choose?)

T-Mobile's "4G" will include HSPA+ (Upgraded 3g).
Same situatioin !
So happy to find this post !
I have EXACTELY the same "problem"
I do have the Nexus 5 D821 and I'm going to L.A. for one month.
Can you tell me wich solution did you choose and if it worked well for you ?
Also how much do you have to pay for how much Data ?
Thanks so much for your help !!!
I have some friends that went through this when they came to visit the States (also with D821). T-Mobile is your best option. You won't get 4g, but you will get fairly good H+.

Great thank you very much for your help !!!
Same thing goes for me. Going to LA area for an internship. I guess I will get a new phone then. I've been advised to choose either AT&T or Verizon.
Can someone confirm?

Yes I can confirm it totally works !!!
Not for the 4G of course but for me it's fast enough with the 3G.
But maybe you'll have to make your APN manually like I had to do.
By the way I find a GREAT carrier, ultra.me
For $39 you can have :
+ Illimited talk & text
+ Illimited international calls and text !!!
+ Illimited Internet (not 4G)
+ more !!!

d820 vs d821 outside the us

hello i have a question,
i live in jordan and my service provider uses (GSM “2G”: 900 MHz HSPA+ “3G”: 2100 MHZ) , and no LTE for now
my question is if it will be a diffrance between d820 and d821 if i don't use LTE?
and i cant compare the HSPA+ bands , because it is 2100 mhz and the device show 1/2/4/5/6/8, can someone explain this to me?

[Q] Nexus 5 Changing the LTE Channels

Hello there, has anyone been successfull in changing the LTE channels of the Nexus 5?
Tried the Toturial for the Galaxy S5, managed to change the settings but they dont stick after the reboot, tried with SlimKat and Stock ROM, and Bricked Kernel (has the option to enable DIAG mode).
Incase you havent heard about this:

you can not change the channels. the nexus 5 comes with the max allowed channels for the chip, you cant add any more. this isnt a galaxy s 5, its a nexus.

Then maybe just swap the US channels for the European ones and vice versa?
The US model has many more LTE channels than the European version, so might be possible?

Samsung Galaxy S8 Compare Network Frequencies and Data Type

I’ve been looking into buying an S8 and the fact that each carrier has its own Galaxy S8 variant made me do some research to make sure I pick the correct phone variant.
I wanted to share this with you guys to hopefully have an aggregated listed to help make someone’s life easier when it comes to deciding: is this frequency supported by this model of S8 or will I purchase the phone and end up on certain bands or frequencies only!
Note: The source of this information is Samsung corporate websites only. No third party website was used. And all credits go to Samsung for properly listing their specs. I just aggregated them in one place to be able to compare them.
Please note the US/North American carrier unlocked model will be released later in May.

Thanks for sharing... and it's neat to compared..
i was looking to buy a International version for tmobile, and most of the comments across multiple forums are B12 support is not there for Tmobile..
but the specs says it supported all of Tmobile bands, should anyone has good experience on this..
the specs mentioned is almost matched with most of the sites i referred, hopefully exynos version support tmobile bands..
Commodore Thanks for the info especially the important reference I've been scouring the internet trying to find the one that fits my needs. Any way is there any frequencies for the US unlocked version? Thanks

US unlocked or carrier free version has model number SM-G950UZKAXAA.
It's listed on bestbuy's site but the network specs don't look reliable, for example the lte bands and the lte frequencies don't match up. I will wait until this phone model gets listed on Samsung's support website and go with those specs. They might drag it out until the end of the month to sell as many carrier S8's as possible. Carrier free is probably not on top of their priority list. But since it's on top of my list, I will wait until the end of May and not limit myself to one carrier specially since this phone is so expensive. (And so cute too ...)

I can't​ find that model. It seems to be missing a letter or two, and in that case the closest match found is a C Spire S8+

It's from a new MVNO using Verizon's network, hasn't launched to subscribers. Probably why you can't find it and why I am having problems getting premium care from samsung too. Lol

Ok thanks for the update . So the new mvno probably hasn't even started listing the phone on their site. Something like Credo Mobile perhaps.

Samsung's website for the SM-G950U: https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/phones/galaxy-s/galaxy-s8-64gb--unlocked--sm-g950uzkaxaa
The webpage lists the FDD LTE bands in the specs, but it does not list any TDD LTE band at all!
I bought an SM-G950U from best buy a few days ago, but given the issue of reliability of specs that you mention, I want to find out (before the return deadline) if the TDD LTE bands listed in the first post are really supported on the SM-G950U.
So, how can I reliably confirm that the SM-G950U supports the TDD LTE bands B38(2600), B39(1900), B40(2300), and B41(2500)?
Solved, using dial code *#2263#
Danny Noman found the solution: Dial code *#2263# lists all active LTE bands on the phone, and on my SM-G950U1 galaxy S8, it shows TDD LTE bands 38, 39, 40, and 41.
