Hello,
Checking on the Wikipedia page for the Xperia Z3, I see that the only missing band from the D6616 and the D6633 is band 12. For ROMs for the D6633, how difficult is this to add to allow the missing 12 band to allow the D6633 ROMs to work on the D6616 devices?
The following page better compares the available components from each variant. It would appear that proper TTY is handled between the D6603 and the D6616. Perhaps this is a better comparison.
I've not built ROMs before, so please forgive if this is a no brainer for those of you that have.
Thanks!

I was curious to find out what is the difference is between the Z3 models?
I was about to purchase this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/221566146447...:MEBIDX:IT
But after further research i saw that different models we having an issue using 4g LTE service.
Basically is there any issue running the D5803? I have AT&T and I didn't want to risk dropping $500 on a cellphone that would be restricted by my carrier to 2G.
Any help would be much appreciated!

I would opt for the D6603 first if you can find it and swing the $ or the dual SIM D6633. D6603 has more support for LTE bands ATT and Tmo but the D6633 will also work. I have the D6633 on US Tmobile and LTE and HSPA+ service is excellent.
Thanks for the info, but what is the real difference between the D6633 and the D5803? What would i need an additional sim slot for?
I guess a better question is what are the disadvantages of the D5803?
Thanks
Looks like I figured it out the D5803 is the 4.6" display. I did not know that. Its a good thing i probed a bit deeper. Id much rather have the 5.2"
Is there any particular model of the 5.2" i should be on the look out for?

models with different band support + onboard storage size (& single or dual SIM model)
go to GSMArena for details
Hey samadi,
You can check the whole specs on gsm arena as czguy says. However It tends to be a bit confusing there too.
Don't be puzzled, device specs have done a quick comparison to clear all doubts. Check it out at : http://www.devicespecifications.com/en/comparison/e291d107
hope this helps.
On the tmobile variant, and didnt know if it plays well with the others?
Anyone have any insight on which versions play together and which do not? Seems like the GSM/CDMA may be a difference as well as the dual sim.
Thanks.
Here is some info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Xperia_Z3
Basically, they are mostly the same, but each model uses different bands. There are five models of the Xperia Z3 variants and are as followed: d6603, d6616, d6633, and d6653. I forgot what the z3v is called but it is the one specific for Verizon which is the only model with the wireless charging. I am currently using the d6603 which is the unlocked model that works for T-Mobile and possibly AT&T. The dd16 is specifically compatible with T-Mobile and also utilizes wifi-calling and T-Mobiles 4G bands. The d6633 is the dual-sim model.
Although this doesn't explain much, I hope it helps. I'm sure you can find the rest of the information on the forum.
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
