That is the W8 model they reviewed. (Canada only model)
Would that have something to do with it? I don't keep up on all the bands/frequencies that all the carriers all over use.
I really was hoping the S6 would move away from all these region specific models since they are managing the radios on their soc with Broadcom now.
You almost have to buy an iPhone if you travel internationally a lot. I don't know of any other phone that has everything covered by the radio.

The Sony Z3 sold in Taiwan has most world bands on it of LTE.
Samsung and HTC suck at this. They should at least release an international model on their own website for those who do not mind forking out full price to get an unlocked model with most LTE Bands for those travel often.
Still just GSM though right?
I thought the iPhone covered much more than that. Maybe I'm wrong..

Okay, I have searched for several weeks and would like a recommendation.
I currently have a Kaiser (AT&T Tilt). I have tried several ROMs with the phone over the past few years, but I clearly need to replace my phone. I live in an area that practically eliminates having any carrier other than AT&T or Verizon. The service with Sprint & T-Mobile is terrible.
I would like a phone running Android. I have tried the Kaiser port and enjoyed using it more than any ROM I have tried. I am fully aware that this poses a problem, as neither AT&T or Verizon currently have an Android phone.
As far as I know, I have three options ...
Purchase a T-Mobile phone (G1 or MyTouch) and use it on AT&T, giving up any hope of using the 3G network.
Purchase the Google Dev phone and use it on AT&T, again giving up any hope of using the 3G network.
Purchase a Rogers G1, pray for a root kit, and hope that it works correctly on AT&T's networks.
Is there anything I am missing? I'd really like to upgrade in the near future, but as far as I see I'm between a rock and a hard place.

I'd take the Hero in a heartbeat ... but is there any way to get one in the US before late fall/early winter?
Not sure about that
But you can always buy it from overseas
I thought I would be able to find the answer to this with a simple google search or by searching here but it's harder than I had anticipated.
Basically, I want to buy another tablet since I sold my other two a while back (LG G Slate piece of crap and the first Galaxy tab 10.1 both having 3g).
I still have a MBB plan with T-Mobile so I wanted to get a 3g/4g capable tablet and was looking into the Galaxy Note 10.1 N8000.
I just wanted to find a DIRECT answer to the question: does it work with T-Mobile 3g/4g?
I may have found some hints toward my question but I needed a direct answer from all you experts; I'm just that kind of guy =/
Thanks!
As soon as I can confirm i'll be ordering from amazon.
Confirmed. The N8000 can get T-mobile 3G and only 3G if you are in an area that has T-mobile's refarmed 1900 frequency. No 4G.

This sucks >_>.
I couldn't wait so I placed my order with 1 day shipping haha.

Can you please clarify your reply. Are you saying it will only get 3G in the T-Mob refarmed areas.
Can you also explain what a T-Mob refarmed area is? I may be moving to the US soon and was considering purchasing a N8000 before I go and this may have an impact on my purchase.
Thanks
what's the difference between various letters after n915? i read about brand versions, so, I assume:
n915a - at&t version
n915s - sprint version
n915t - t-mobile version
but n915g, n915, n915f? is there also a verizon version or any other brand/no-brand shoud i become aware?
i come from an european no brand s4 gt-i9505, i'd like to buy a compatible (if possible no brand too) note edge.
and, another question, is there knox technology in this phone too? and if it is, can i root/flash/mod it without lost warranty?
thanks in advance
...well i guess i was right don't buying it.

You definitely don't want the Verizon version n915v.
T mobile and AT&T have gsm phones, but you'll have to look at which can be unlocked.
I would ask on the note 4 forums since it is similar and you'll get more views there.

Right now the only GSM version that has root (if you are buying a US carrier branded device), is the T-Mobile version.
http://samsungrumors.net/samsung-galaxy-note-edge-variants-availability/ - this will show you the other variants besides the US
I'm a new user so I can't yet post links, but you can easily find the link on the GearBest website if you search for "Mi Mix 3".
In the product "Tips" description it claims that the phone is unlocked for worldwide use. Not particularly sure what they mean by that because I was under the assumption that the international version was not yet available. I'm wondering if this version on Gearbest is any different from the ones currently sold on AliExpress by the Mi Global Store.
I've never bought a Xiaomi phone before so I'm a little confused about the difference between the Mi Mix 3 versions currently available and this international version that is yet to come.
It most likely just means the phone works on all networks, its not carrier locked or missing important bands.
I don't think there is a difference between the other sellers and gear best, most likely the international version will have exactly the same bands if not very slightly different.

Ahh I see. Yeah I believe you're right. I noticed someone asked a question on the GearBest page about the phone having google services and the seller responded saying it didn't, so it's probably the normal Chinese ROM it seems.
This is for the 256gb 8 and 10gb ram

Yes, the title sums up what I'm curious about.
Turns out I got an Xperia M2 Aqua with a broken display as a hand-me-down from a friend. I fixed it and it's working great! (check the pics if you'd like).

It's alive!
It works and looks great!
... except for the lack of proper LTE bands for my carrier, specifically bands 4 and 17. So yeah, it's currently stuck on 3G/HSPA, which is fine for chatting and checking email, but can be a bother for more intensive tasks.
I know there's another model of the M2 aqua which properly supports such bands: the D2406. Would cross-flashing the modem/baseband from that model do anything?
I actually thought about doing a motherboard swap but I would have to dumpster-dive the local phone repair market to get a motherboard from that specific model (or buy one online), and I can no longer justify the cost, time and effort haha.
I remember reading some LTE band unlocking tutorials for qcomm phones which used the USB diagnostics mode and QXDM or QPST for altering raw values. It seems very risky, that's why I'd rather ask if someone here has had a positive experience in this area, and if so, I'd ask for guidance or advice on the matter.
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
