is there any way to enable aws band in my D6653?
i mean, maybe flashing D6603 firmware or modem on my device i will get LTE?
i can't get LTE signal because of bands, guys any suggestions?
I had an issue with this when I used to have a G2 and someone introduced me to this thread

I couldn't do anything but for the Z3 there could be something available

Was trying to track down which model of the Z3 I should buy in order to get LTE access on ATT. I have seen some people say to get the 6603 but I was reading a thread that it wasn't working on ATT. Anyone using this phone on ATT and know exactly which model to get in order to use LTE?
The D6603 and D6633 (Dual) both support all of the needed bands for AT&T support. I use a D6633 and have no issues whatsoever on AT&T.
I also use D6633 and get LTE on ATT
D6603 and D6633 will support AT&T LTE. Whatever you do, do not give AT&T your updated IMEI or their system will register it as "unknown" device and you will get 3G only.
I'm using the D6603 on AT&T with no problems (getting LTE just fine).
Hi!
I have the D6653 model, but I need the LTE bands of the D6603.
If I flash the D6603 rom, can I get the bands LTE 700/800/850/900/1700/1800/1900/2100/2600 (1/2/3/4/5/7/8/13/17/20)?
Thanks!
I've read on this in the past when I used to own the D6653. The answer is no because it is hardware related, not software. Something about the physical antennas they put in here. This was a reason for selling my D6653 with a big loss back then.
I just got a D6603. I'm on T-Mobile and I wanted the phone to be rootable so I got the unlocked version instead of the branded D6616. However, the D6603 doesn't have LTE band 12 support, which means my signal at my desk at work is weak and frequently goes out altogether.
I found this guide on unlocking all LTE bands for a phone with a qualcomm processor. I was wondering if this is actually possible for the D6603 (i.e. band 12 is just blocked by the firmware) or if the D6603 lacks a certain radio necessary for communicating with band 12 towers. Has anyone tried this, or any other similar hack, for enabling a certain band or frequency on a phone that doesn't normally support it?

Check this to see which baseband exactly is you want to unlock and if your device supports that baseband. If the radio is missing, it would be impossible to unlock it. However if it is just the software, maybe following the guide help.
See attachment for your reference.
Or just wait for lollipop update. Just came across it

Hi everybody ,
sorry for my bad english..
my problem is that I bought a xperia Z3 D6616 (Tmobile), but I live in spain and LTE bands from this model are not compatible with my country.
Can I open the LTE bands like D6603 model ?

I am fairly certain it physically does not have the other bands, T-Mobile as far as I know does not disable other bands especially since they have global roaming plans.

I am trying to do this
The bands on the phone should not be locked. Please look up the LTE bands on the phone and see if your carrier supports them:

I am pretty sure it's an exercise in futility as T-Mobile does not block bands, the phone either physically has them or doesn't.
Better return/sell it and get the international version.
Hello guys,
Who could find how to unlock all LTE bands of the telephone modem: 2G / 3G / 4G LTE Cat 6 Integrated HiSilicon Balong Modem?
I asked for something pretty similar in another post here. I'd like to unlock the B28 band.
No news for now. Hope someone will find a way to manipulate the modem files to get it done
