Hey guys!
Just wondering what Moto G versions will be available, specifically what antennas will each version have?
I'm on Wind Mobile in Canada (AWS Band).
So far I found a few diff. versions of this phone, for US, UK and Canadian markets.
US radio specs:
http://www.motorola.com/us/consumers/moto-g/Moto-G/moto-g-pdp-ways-to-buy.html
Networks
Global GSM Model: GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)
UMTS/HSPA+ up to 21 Mbps (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz)
US GSM Model: GSM/GPRS/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)
UMTS/HSPA+ up to 21 Mbps (850, 1700 (AWS), 1900 MHz)
CDMA Model: CDMA/EVDO Rev A (850, 1900 MHz)
UK Band specs:
http://www.motorola.co.uk/consumers/mobile-phones/moto-g-gb.html
Networks
HSPA+ DL 21.1Mbps / UL 5.76Mbps- EV-DO Rev.A DL 3.1Mbps / UL 1.8Mbps
Bands/Modes
CDMA: 850/1900 UMTS: 850/900/1700/1900/2100 GSM: 850/900/1800/1900
Canada, Telus Only (for now)
HSPA 850/900/1900/2100; GSM 850/900/1800/1900
It looks like Telus is selling Global GSM Model

Confirmed. Telus/Koodo is indeed selling what looks like the International GSM version.

It looks like US GSM Model (sold on Motorola US site) WILL work with Wind Mobile in Canada!
While AWS transmits on ~1710-1755 MHz and receives on ~2110-2155 MHz, this band is known as 1700 or Band IV or AWS.
2100 refers to Band I (2100 IMT), a totally different band which is used in Asia and Europe, but not in North America.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMTS_frequency_bands
The US version supports AWS because that is what T-Mobile uses in the US, and it's the same band that Wind uses.

Any other models that you guys can add here?
Thanks!
Wow, the UK version actually supports more band, it should be the global version. There are many countries provide Uim card (CDMA sim card) on their CDMA2000 network.
The Brazilian Dual Chip Version has the same Bands of the UK version.

I was actually wondering the same thing myself. I wanted to buy one here in the UK because it says it supports all the bands (including 1700), but is this in fact true, or is it just the Global version?

Hi
Are you sure Allewar?
Motorola Brasil and the store they point you to (http://www.lojaoficialmotorola.com.br/product/celulares/116699802/moto-getrade%3B-dual)
doesn't list AWS 1700 band. Unlike the UK version.
See my OP.
Thanks
Moto G
From what I read in Canada we cannot get the 16gb version, have to find online somewhere.
Chilean version (Movistar) and probably all Latinoamerican except Brazil:
3G HSPA 850/900/1900/2100 MHz
2G GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

Data 2G GPRS - EDGE
Hello everyone, first post here!
I ordered a moto G from the us store since I have a connection in Washington state to ship it to. On their site they list 1700(aws) but not the 2100 needed for downloading.
I phoned motorola this morning and informed them of my uncertainty. The level 2 technician replied that the american phone will fully support 1700/2100 used by aws. I also informed the technician of my carrier, so it looks like the american gsm model will work with wind.
cheers :good:
To OP:
Confirmed. Telus/Koodo is indeed selling what looks like the international GSM version.
Model: XT1032
Baseband: MSM8626BP_1032.3051.51.00R
I would love to know how to enable 1700/2100 bands on it!!!
Do we know if there are hardware differences? I would like to see if we can get a thread going for enabling AWS support on international GSM version. There is an extensive knowledge-base here on XDA when it comes to tinkering with the Galaxy S2 and S3 modems and NV parameters to enable Wind/TMO AWS. I remember at one point there was discussion of whether AWS was even possible on the S3 i747.
Any input would be appreciated!!

Sorry I can't help make this happen but I thought I'd offer my support and would also love to see 1700/2100 bands enabled.

Hi matlabwtf! Welcome to XDA
Thanks for sharing your findings.
From what I've researched so far, 1700 MHz AWS band operates on 1700 up and 2100 down.
There's another AWS band as well, 2100MHz AWS band, it operates on 1900 up and 2100 down. It is used overseas, Asia, Europe, etc.
The carriers (cellphone companies and their employees) confuse people when they tell you need 1700/2100 band phone.
In reality you only need to make sure that the phone has 1700 AWS band, that's all.
Please let us know when your receive your handset, thanks.

Glad to help! Is there any way to know the model number and baseband for the US GSM (AWS) version?? If it's the same model then I bet it is just a matter of flashing the relevant modem and nvdata parameters.

Hey
I'd have to dig some more to find out if all the models have same radios internally. Supposedly there were 5 models of Moto G approved by the FCC in the US:
XT1032, XT1033, XT1034, XT1035, and XT1036

UK Version
Just wanted to add that the UK version, despite listing the 1700 UMTS on the UK Motorola site, does not list said band on the box. I checked in store today, and it only had UMTS: 850/900/1900/2100. Appears to be the same as the Global version being sold in the US.
Hi Irfan
If they have a working demo, would you be able to check the settings and look at the model number and baseband? Only if you get an opportunity that is...

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.
TDD LTE bands B38, B39, B40, and B41 on SM-G950U

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.

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.
