Hi guys,
Do you know if this phone will be compatible with Three UK in 4G? I read that three offers the 4G network @ 800MHz and 1800MHz. I had a look at the phone's spec sheet and it says that they support 1800MHz @ 4G. Does that mean that I should be able to run the three network @ 4G speeds with this phone?
Thanks!

Is the MT7-TL10 variation compatible with three @ 4G or does it need to specifically be the L09 version ?

The M7-TL10 is not Band 20 (800Mhz) compatibel! Thats a wrong Info of most of the dealer and Huawei self. I buy the International TL10 and it has no band 20. Only the M7-TL09 has it.

Why u want 800? Every OP finishes with that freq.
L10 uses 1800 ,2100 and 2600 ..
I use 1800 on 3!
And it isn't TL09 but L09
What is that for a question?? Because my provider has only 800Mhz and in some Big Citys 2600. Most of the german provider, D1,Vodafone and O² use the Band 20
And it is TL10 not L10....

I just ordered my black Mi4 today and will hopefully switch from my z1c in a few days. Are there other users within europe to share knowledge with? Since 3g and 4g networks differ from the network bands used in the USA, it might be a good idea to get connected.
Of course, i'm still interested in sharing knowhow with everyone else of you too when it comes to non-network-related issues.

directly from Xiaomi. http://www.xiaomishop.com/180-xiaomi-mi4-16gb-wcdma-smartphone-black.html
Xiaomishop is not Xiaomi, just reseller.
interesting. Didn't know that. But it seems like a trustworthy reseller anyways, as i read tons of positive remarks about them. But let's just see when (and how) my device arrives.

great! As France and Germany use the same frequency bands, everything should be fine then. I read a few complains about bad/no reception, but it seems like this wouldn't be a general problem after all.
No problem of reception at all. I get even better signal than my old S4 Mini, and better sound quality too.
whats best place to buy the mi4? just a reference is ok no need for full url..
i want to bu black version but it seems kinda like sold out?

my order just went to status "shipped" today. Can't wait to get my hands on that cutie.
FDD LTE Band 20
The international version of the Mi4 is available today.
But there is no official support for FDD LTE 800 MHz (Band 20)
Maybe it comes out next year or we can get with a firmware update ?
FDD-LTE model is not available yet, you have to wait.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4/general/unlocking-basebands-mi4-t2879685
Nobody has reported success in unlocking bands on different model, likely hardware issue/impossible.

I do not think that this will happen with the MI4, just more in a new model like "MI5". In Germany you can use this Band 20 with t-mobile in some areas.You can not fix this problem with an simple software update, its more linked to the hardware conditions. But you can put me right
so i got my Mi4 yesterday. 2G/3G seem to work perfectly fine.
The only thing i'm still not quite sure about is localization. I currently use .12.12 dev-Edition. Seems like giving root-Access right out of MIUI is not available in stable editions. But sadly, the localized versions (in my case: german ) seem to lack behind. Not a big deal as i'm perfectly fine using english terms in my OS, but i wonder if there is any way to tell 3rd party apps (facebook etc.) that they should use foreign languages. Any ideas?
[edit] woohoo! This one did the trick: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.evanhe.locale
All 3rd party apps, that have any localization built in, now show up in german language

Being that Europe has the similar bands as the U.S. will it work in the States?
Hi,
I bought the Huwaei honor 6 in India, Now I have moved to US.
I bought a new at and t prepaid sim card . It seems the mobile does not work with US 4G mobile networks, because it is based on bands B1 (2100MHz) /B3 (1800MHZ), B38,B3,B40 . whereas AT&T and T-Mobile use the band B2(1900MHz)/AWS(B4) for 4G LTE services..
Am getting only the 2G signal . I don't know if Huwaei is going to fix this issue in future.
Is there any other workaround for this network frequency issue?
It is an issue of AT&T not Huawei, because Huawei promised to support certain frequencies and it does so. But AT&T does not provide freq service to its customer, you with your phone bought from somewhere you wish. So I will stand with you to protest to our provider to switch the 4G frequencies to match to our phones. Hand-in-hand!

Yeah . We have to figure this issue . Seems no network in USA supports the frequency.

You can keep hope the CM ROM might unlock all frequencies.

Hey, is this phone still worth buying? my Nexus 5 is dying on me and im fed up of how long it lasted anyway.

All good and 24h delivery.
3GB version does not support band 20, so if you want 4G on a network which uses band 20, I would recommend you buy the 2GB model

Depends of the network man.
The link I posted above is for eu version of Gold Mate 7 which I have. Im with three and I get very fast 4G without problems.
I suggest to buy from Amazon.it as I made. Is cheaper and it is official from Huawei Italy.

Thanks! I had a play on the 16gb version in carphone warehouse yesterday I really like it.
Is there any chance to get the B28 Lte band working on 64gb or 128gb chinese model by flashing the international modem firmware?
Only the 32gb international 1 sim model has this B28 band avalaible. I need the dual sim stuff and the B28 band...
In France this band will start to be used by providers from april. My provider will use principaly this band for LTE.
If anybody has an idea, i'm listening to it
no idea, wed first have to figure out of the LTE band support is hardware or software-based before we can answer this question
Yep, that's what i ment by this question... If anybody already knows if it's the same hardware for LTE support than in the L09 or not.
Hope we'll find out.
ideally, we could potentially manipulate the modem.img as to unlock any and all available bands supported by the hardware modem
That would be great... but i'm a newbie in the dev world... So i have no idea about how to process to test things...
And i'm still waiting my mate 8. Hope i'll get it next week.
Hello,
I am also interested in this subject, it would be a good solution to unlock this frequency ....
Hi ? can install chinis software on international
yep, it should work

Hi all, I ordered a 32 GB Pearl White (presumably FRD-L04) on Amazon's Black Friday sale, I live in the UK, had it shipped to a friend in the US. According to hihonor, the phone should support all the US and UK bands. According to FrequencyCheck, only the 64GB (FRD-L14) US model supports the European bands 3 and 20. Which is correct? If the phone I ordered won't support 3 and 20, I may as well return it now.
Thanks!
I also bought Honor 8. Only difference is that US version is single sim and much more LTE bands. According to official site it should support that bands.
I finded here specifications for all versions: http://www.smartphonerankings.com/huawei-honor-8-frd-l04/

Yes, I believe FrequencyCheck is wrong, but it claims the European bands 3 and 20 are only supported in FRD-L14 (the 64 GB version) and not in FRD-L04. Hopefully this is untrue.

Hey guys, can you update on this?
I'm studying abroad in England for 5 months and I have this exact model of the Honor 8, and wanted to know if I can get a reliable 4G LTE connection while I'm in England... I'm going to get a plan with Vodafone, EE, or O2 when I get there. If you could let me know, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance!

That's why I'm asking the 2 people who commented in this thread, they live in the UK and can tell me for sure.
Here you go here is a list for radio bands compatibility list for Honor FDR04 /14 /01 AND 14 for use in UK with most of the providers..
www.frequencycheck.com/compatibility/K0BOsOx/huawei-honor-8-dual-sim-lte-a-frd-l04/united-kingdom
You can select any country by the way.. If I were you op for Virgin mobile or Plusnet both run off EE but have better signal and deals to the overs..
I bought the FRD-L09 model while I was overseas and I live in the USA, the salesperson assured me it would work on 4G here but it definitely doesn't... If you still have the FRD-L04 model would you be willing to trade? Mine is the blue 32G model and it is basically new, I bought it about a month ago. I love the phone but only having 3G is killing me...

Thanks for this, but as someone stated above, I think Frequency Check is wrong here. According to Huawei Customer Care team on Amazon, the supports bands 3, 7, and 20 which are used for LTE in the UK, while Frequency Check doesn't have those.
I have posted a picture of both Huawei's listed network frequencies compared to Frequency Check's.
I never even knew that Honor released a single SIM variant of the Honor 8. I thought all Honor 8's were dual SIMs.
I can confirm Frequency check is wrong. I'm not back in the UK yet but I'm getting LTE on SoftBank in Japan. A warning - this model follows the American practice of calling 3G "4G". Only "4G LTE" actually means 4G.

I think it's because not every country use every bands so Honor indicates only bands used for specific country.
I make an example: Band 20 could be used in USA but not in UK so indicates on UK version it have Band 20 is useless for UK's people
