The Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3(I535) has the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 plus MSM 8960 processor. The Qualcomm MSM 8960 is capable of supporting LTE band 13 and LTE Band 4(AWS).
The S3 only supports LTE Band 13
Q1. Is there firmware that will make this device support LTE Band4(AWS) also?
Q2. Is there a SW to make VOLTE calls using the S3?
I am looking to unlock LTE Band 4(AWS) on my VzW GS3.
Thanks in advance,
I don’t know anything about the bands but if I'm correct volte is unsupported. I don't think any of the major carriers even support volte.

Verizon does in NYC. You need the right flash.

The LTE frequencies used by AT&T (850/1800MHz) are the same as the LTE frequencies used on these phones (also 850/1800MHz). Considering these are unlocked phones, could I use them with AT&T's LTE network in the USA? I'd love to get some of that Snapdragon 800 power in the S4 but not if I couldn't use LTE.
Thanks!

Anyone? I'm waiting on a yes or no to purchase one so any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hi Bros,
Did anyone know what LTE modem will be used in S6? As S6 not using Snapdragon 810 anymore, but using Exynos 7420, so the LTE modem is no way using Qualcomm Gobi LTE modem. Why I ask this question because in US, ATT only support Qualcomm Gobi modem. I own a Note 4 with N910U version but cannot use ATT LTE as the modem is from Intel 7260. ATT block all other modem. As S6 not come with 810 chip, ATT should update their software/hardware in order to support the coming business of S6. My N910U may be also benefit and can use LTE.

Not only that, they still need Qualcomm for CDMA networks. I am pretty sure it is going to be Exynos 7420 + Qualcomm modem combo.

If in this case, I'm no hope to use LTE with my N910U. Too bad.
Can the exynos version support T-Mobile usa LTE bands and volte?
Looks like officially has band12 support but no one has said volte is a go or not
First of all... I'm not asking if I can unlock and root the Verizon version... I'm asking if any of the unlocked versions of the phone will work on Verizon. Without affecting the cellular service at all.
The SM-N975F has an Exynos processor and supports 3G TD-SCDMA: B34(2010), B39(1880), which are also supported by the Verizon version. However, the Verizon version supports 2G bands that the Exynos version does not.
Do I still need to worry about the 2G bands (CDMA: CDMA800, USPCS1900) that are exclusive to the Snapdragon versions? Maybe that depends on my geographic location. Does anyone know if there's a map to see if there is full 3G coverage where I live/work/play... such that I can make phone calls on all the 3G or 4G bands that the exynos version(s) support?
Thanks
Have been using Redmi series of phones for a while. My son plans to be in US for 13 months. Indian Note7 pro only is compatible with two LTE Bands in US that too only from T Mobile and with one LTE Band of AT&T.
https://www.kimovil.com/en/frequency-checker/US/redmi-note-7-pro is the link I used to check compatibility.
Even Mi A3 Indian version got only 2 LTE Bands, same as Note 7 pro.
Wonder if anyone knows if there are other LTE bands enabled, but not listed? Also, if there is any mod by which you can enable other LTE Bands like B2 and B4?
Any info will be really helpful.
use QXDM tool to unlock bands
