Hello,
Im using Moto g4 plus 32gb version in USA which is bought in India few days ago. Also im using Lycamobile carrier here in USA. My problem is im not getting an LTE signal on my device while i changed settings to LTE recommended and others in my area are getting LTE signal for the same carrier. Am i missing something here or is the fault that i brought this device from India that's not supporting LTE bands in USA. Is there an app in playstore for network unlocking compatible to bands in the U.S. Could anyone please help resolve the issue.
P.S. i updated the device to Android N 7.0 through OTA after reaching U.S.A.
Check your compatibility with Lyca.
BTW, you're on thhe wrong forum.

PS: It's not compatible.

hey,
i am from India. My friend is going to gift me samsung galaxy s3 (unfortuantely and probably its t-mobile) from United States. i've no idea whether they are CDMA or GSM carrier. if its CDMA so my questions are :
can i get an unlock code which allows me access any gsm networks in India.?
And if it is GSM one, can i access 3g networks in India.?
i have read in a random forum that if its gsm carrier i can only use EDGE service in India.
AND the last one-
should i update official ics stock rom firmware for INDIA OR for The USA?
Hello,
My sister lives in Canada and is on the wind network, which uses the AWS frequency. I found out that the Moto G US GSm version will be compatible with Wind Canada (since it supports AWS).
I wanted to buy this as a gift for her birthday so I ordered the 16GB US GSM Moto G from amazon usa and posted it to her via UPS. She got it today but is having difficulty setting up internet, I mean it is supposed to "just work" right?
So I fear that maybe amazon has sent me the Global GSM by mistake.
is there anyway I can identify the phone? I mean will the about section in settings be able to tell me if its US GSM or global GSM?
Thank you
You can tell by the model number:
XT1032 Global GSM
XT1034 US GSM (T-Mobile)
If she gets Wind Home coverage, calls and texts, she's got AWS HSPA signal and the right model. Getting the internet to work from there is probably just a matter of checking APN settings.
After owning a dual-sim Moto G2, I knew I wanted a G3 with dual sims and 2GB RAM (16GB ROM). Unfortunately this isn't available in the UK so I bought one from eBay which came from a seller in India.
I don't NEED 4G as I have a mobile hotspot which works very well, but I don't take this everywhere with me. Is it possible to flash the modem or something to get 4G in the UK using this model?
Thanks,
Marc

This isn't just a modem thing, flashing a different modem will not enable the missing bands, that "feature" is buried deep in a secure partition of the device... And since there isn't a dual SIM 4G 16GB model in your country, until someone figures out how to unlock all the LTE bands in the device, there is no way to enable this at this time.

Thanks, I thought it was a long shot. I wasn't sure of the correct terms but I've just searched for "unlock lte bands" and it seems to have been done for some models, fingers crossed someone figures it out for the G3!
Cheers

Really?!? Wow maybe I can get this working then. A Wikipedia page (I can't post links just yet) says that India has 2300MHz (band 40) 4G frequency, whereas UK has 800, 1800 and 2600MHz according to a PC Advisor link which I also can't post
I'm on O2 (both sims - I know, a bit daft but that's what I've got) and I've confirmed 4G is enabled on both sims. I guess the frequency that India don't use, is the 800MHz one that O2 uses, yes? Sods law if so. But I'll be porting my number to another network ASAP if that is right..
Thanks
I have a few questions about this model:
Anyone know if there is a Global ROM in the works or can I put the normal Mi Mix 3 Global Rom on this model?
Anyone know what settings I need to set to allow this phone on to ATT's LTE network? I attempt to use the APN ATT Nextgenphone but it will not connect to that one. I have to use the Att Phone which it will connect but still it will not let me get anything above 3G speeds.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
LTE/Carrier
Before I purchased this phone, I checked all the sites for compatibility and what bands/frequencies AT&T uses for their LTE/4G networks. All of the sites stated that the Forbidden City model has all the bands needed to work with the carrier. Does anyone know how to get the phone to work with the LTE bands or what carrier in the USA will the phone work with the best?
Any help would be much appreciated!

it's got best all around LTE band coverage for AT&T in my area. Verizon isn't bad, just expensive. T-Mobile supports all the bands in my area but the quality sucks in my opinion. Sprint is obviously garbage especially for unlocked international phones.
I want to purchase a GW4 classic LTE from usa and use it in India.
I understood that it should be possible because the hardware should remain same irrespective of the region/country?
This is so with smartphones also because a samsung phone will be compatible with mobile carriers globally.
Region specific firmware is just to enable/disable settings or apps.
Please correct if my understanding is wrong.
My T-Mobile LTE watch 4 did not connect to any network, neither in Europe nor in India. When checked with TMO I was told that LTE connectivity will work only in the US, despite my having international roaming. Why so, no idea.
The LTE frequency bands are different.
Only Roaming 3g in Mexico and Canada had worked on my prior Samsung T-Mobile LTE watch's. Haven't traveled yet with my watch 4 LTE....
