looking at the specs it seels to support both cdma and gsm? is that true?
will it work outside of the US on say new zealand GSM Network?

Is my TP2 a CDMA model?

Below spec cut and paste from HTC website. Is that consider a CDMA model?
Network HSPA/WCDMA:
*
Europe/Asia: 900/2100 MHz
*
Up to 2 Mbps up-link and 7.2 Mbps down-link speeds
Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE:
*
Europe/Asia: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
(Band frequency, HSPA availability, and data speed are operator dependent.)
No, that's the GSM-only version.
depends on your carrier... if you are Sprint, Telus, or Verizon its CDMA. Otherwise its GSM
Thanks for the reply. I am from Singapore BTW.
Subabia,
You definately have a GSM not CDMA.
WCDMA is not the same thing as CDMA. WCDMA is synonymous with UMTS which is 3G for GSM networks.

Will moto g lte from fido with with wind if unlocked?

Sorry if this is stupid question but I'm new to this whole band thing. I've tried researching but no answers.

UMTS (850, 900, 1700, 1900, 2100 MHz)

I'm not sure if all UMTS 1700 is always AWS? I'm not sure if the US GSM model is the same as canadian model, but it seems to be. Fido doesn't list UMTS but I'm assuming it is since thats the only specs provided on the motorola site. If someone could explain or just let me know if it will work on WIND that would be great.
Thanks
Short answer: yes.
Longer answer: HSPA is a superset of UMTS (you may also see WCDMA, not to be confused with CDMA, which is for our purposes identical). Band 4, a.k.a AWS or UMTS 1700 is a bit unusual in that traffic from the phone to the tower is on 1700 MHz (uplink), but on 2100 MHz from the tower to the phone/user equipment (downlink).
There are three models sold in Canada: XT1032 ("Global" HSPA model) XT1034 ("US" HSPA model, AWS, sold by Wind and Videotron) and XT1040 (LTE model, the US one is the XT1045, what actual differences there are remain to be seen)
Were either of you able to confirm?
I'm on the same boat, conteplating buying the 4G LTE version from FIDO to use on Wind.
Thanks in advance!
Yes to wind
From everything i read it will work on wind as the the only moto g lte with lte 2600 is the same one that has 1700 3g band, Have either of you guys rooted and if so how and where did you find directions. Ill unlock tomorrow am and then let you guys know.
Thanks guys!
I've contacted wind tech support for an official confirmation.
As Darkshado mentioned, the only 4G LTE model listed on Motorola.ca is the US GSM 4G LTE model with the following specs:
Networks - Moto G with 4G LTE
US GSM Model:
4G LTE Bands 2, 4, 5, 17 (1900, 1700, 850, 700 MHz)

UMTS (850, 900, 1700, 1900, 2100 MHz)
Everything points to this being able to run on Wind - 1700 and 2100 MHz. It'll be cool if it can..
gthompson75 - by rooting, i suppose you mean a network unlock, right? I dont think you need to "root" to get it working on Wind
wind works
OK I unlocked my Fido moto g LTE today. My model is xt1040, once unlocked no problem on wind. Took a while to get a signal but worked none the less. Hope this helps you guys.
yup, so you're in the same situation as me, i went to 2 different fido stores and no one has it in stock
went online to order it the past few days, error in the last step
call the number and order it over the phone and save your time
hopefully i will be getting the phone soon
i actually found a store called wirelesswave and they had the moto g lte, i took a look at the box, it was the xt1040 (i was expecting the xt1045 just from reading around the subforums), the front of the box does not advertise the 4g/lte at all, it's in small print on the back of the box
I can also confirm it works. Thanks for the help guys.
where did you unlock it from and how much did it cost

hey i had a quick question, where did you get it unlocked from and how much did it cost.
if i could get a website.
I have the same problem : I can't find any website to unlock it for sure.
If those who already have unlocked their XT1040 could reply, it would be fantastic.
Thanks.

Don't believe so. In Canada, phones which work on Bell, Rogers, Telus networks will not work on neither Wind or Mobilicity networks, even though Wind mobile phone have full functionality on Mobilicity and vice versa, after unlocking, of course. In my experience, however, the unlocked Wind/ Mobilicity phone does work on the other networks, you wont get 3G or LTE data connection though, only 2G.
@chichibud31: Dude.... Did you read the thread? Multiple posts from users in the field confirming it works.
The whole "Robellus phones don't work on Wind/Mobilicity/Vidéotron and vice versa" is mostly obsolete. (Caveat emptor, but usually the worst case scenario is that you'll have to play with QPST.)
There was some truth to it back when the new entrants launched their networks and penta-band HSPA SoCs were not common. But even back then you had devices like the Telus Galaxy S 2 X that worked on AWS HSPA because it was the same model as what T-Mobile USA sold.
I've been using a Mobilicity T889V on Virgin Mobile then Koodo for about two years. DC-HSPA worked out of the box and I got LTE working as well. Activating AWS HSPA on the Rogers/Bell/Telus variant is easy.
It's been said before, the non-LTE XT1032 won't work with AWS carriers; out of the box at least, it remains to be seen if it could be modded.
That's actually a non-advertised feature of the LTE Moto G versus it's HSPA-only siblings: it can roam pretty much worldwide on 3G.

Which canadian networks will work with Xperia Z3 dual D6633?

I got the Dual Xperia Z3 today, I have a number with Wind and number with Virgin mobile here in Canada.
I installed both nano sim cards in the device but it wont allow me to use both at the same time. If I turn on one, the other goes off, if I turn on the other one, the first one goes off.
The device tells me one can do data while the other does gsm only, both carriers use gsm, so whats up? why am I not allowed to use both cards at the same time?
I just want one for data (obviously), but I want to be able to send/receive messages and calls for both.
I s that not possible?
Just found this:
Apparently only Rogers or Fido (rogers is the worst at scamming their costumers) use those bands.

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.
