XT1541 FDD band compatibility - Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does the XT1541 model supports the following network frequency range?
LTE (4G)
FDD band 3 (1700~1800 MHz)
FDD band 8 (900~960 MHz)
I have checked gsmarena.com/motorola_moto_g_(3rd_gen)-7247.php though I prefer to be 110 % sure.

The XT1541 supports LTE Bands 1, 3, 7, 8, and 20, according to multiple sources... all we are going to do is Google it just like you, but when all sources agree I don't think there is much chance it is wrong.
FrequencyCheck, GSM Arena, and Wikipedia all agree... If you are still in doubt, use https://willmyphonework.net/ and check your specific situation.

LTE networks, bands and modes for various countries

Just thought i should post this since i noticed a lot of people complain about LTE not working for them on their Mate 7 even though their network operator has LTE. Well the truth is that unlike 3G, LTE has two different modes. One called TDD/TD(Time Division Duplex) and another FDD (Frequency division duplex). What this means is that if your LTE network is on say the FDD mode, and your mate 7 supports TDD, even if your frequency is supported it wont work for you due to the fact that your mode isn't supported on the device. This happened to me and i did a research and found the reason. Though there are some devices that support dual mode LTE (meaning they support both the TDD and FDD) but unfortunately the AM7 doesn't. Especially not the one that shipped to Nigeria. Mine supports TDD but unfortunately the only 4G network available for use on mobile in my country (Smile network) is on the FDD.
Also check this blog for your network operator to see the band, mode and frequency it uses. Hope am allowed to post links but if not moderators should feel free to remove it. Thanks
http://www.huaweimobileshop.com/blog/4g-lte-frequencies/
Your information are a bit off. The Mate 7 distributed in Nigeria supports both the FDD and TDD LTE. It just does not support the band that Smile is using which is FDD 800MHz or Band 20. It supports the TDD 2300MHz (Band 40) supported by both Spectranet and Swift Networks in Lagos. iPhone 6 supports both bands 20 and 40 in Nigeria. I think the people in Huawei in Nigeria miscalculated since only Swift and Spectranet are available in Lagos, the commercial capital of Nigeria.
These are the bands supported by the Mate 7 sold in Nigeria. FDD-LTE 1800 / 2100 / 2600 and TDD-LTE 1900 / 2300 / 2500 / 2600 (Bands 1, 3, 7, 38, 39, 40, 41).

Z3 model d6683: dual sim both 3g and 4g too?

Hi,
my name is Andrea and first of all thanks to give me your attention.
I'm in europe, italy, and was watching Z3 model d6683, it's for chinese market i guess, particular version of dual sim model. Now, i've two sim, the operator is "3 italia", and its signal is from 3g to 4g (if the area is covered by 2g signal only, i go in roaming signal, and can't surf etc). Now, i'm looking for a dual sim phone, and both sim have to get at least 3g signal at the same time. I'm not asking to surf with both sim at the same time, and i'm not asking "dual active", not interested if when i call, the other sim goes airplane mode. I'm asking if Sony Xperia Z3 model d6683 has two sim can get both at least in 3g mode during standby and always in general, cause i surf with one sim, i call with the other one, but this last don't want to go roaming all the time. Hope it's clear.
I can get this particular model because an Eshop has it online, but first need to know this problem.
Hope it can, and battery can last in any case.
Or if you know some other phones...
Thanks
None has it?
Help please, if you know this model can do what im looking for, or just another phone..
Thanks
Bro i also have D6683 in which one sim will work as 4G and other as 2G.
Hope i have helped you

So the second one can't get higher than 2g? Are you sure, could be the operator..or is just the phone? And if you put sim 1 to 3g, the second always max 2g?
Thanks a lot, some people told me this phone could be the only one to do what i'm looking for, but i guess it doesn't exist.

D6683 is designed specifically for the Chinese market. It uses bands that are incompatible with rest of the world, therefore, it would be mostly useless anywhere else.
The following is from xperiablog.net:
Sony Xperia Z3 Dual TD (D6683) network support
– Dual SIM version which supports TD-LTE in China
– 4G FDD LTE: Band 1 (2100), Band 3 (1800), Band 7 (2600)
– 4G TD-LTE: Band 28 (2600 CMCC),Band 39 (1900), Band 40 (2300), Band 41 (2600 Unicom)

?
Fdd are here in europe, my operator cover 1800 and 2600 lte. Maybe Tdd too.
But could be enough the fact to support just 3g, but the important would be both sim can get up to that at the same time. I'm just asking this.

The only way to make sure is to test it. When I went to China last month my Z3 Dual worked nicely on Unicom's 2600 band. The first time I've read about D6683, I've got really excited until I've found out that it does not support bands used on North American continent wich makes is useless as a world phone to me. If you plan to use it in Europe only, there is a chance that it will work for you. I was not able to find out what 3G bands D6683 supports because the situation there is quite messy. Chinese 3G network is 80% incompatible for rest of the world, the only network that works with foreign phones is Unicom. It's very similar in Japan as well. Understanding that this phone is targeted for the Chinese market, I am pretty sure that it would be useless in North America (and most likely in Europe as well) on 3G bands. Luckily, with the proliferation of LTE networks while 2G is being slowly phased out, we are going to see more phones supporting simultaneous LTE on both SIMs soon.

Of course stay in Europe lol.
But i do not care the fact could not work here, as the fact I want it to support 3g at least at same time.
I guess user niks answerd the question, but i asked to check a few things via mp. But probaly he's right, the phone could show if, after you set connection on sim 1, could support 3g signal on second one. It's impossibile, i have to admit

Thank you. Maybe we re not understanding each other.
I think it can support 3g and even 4g here. My question is when one sim is on 3g/4g,the other one goes 3g? Not to connect data to surf, just about quality, frequency.. at least..
I'm looking one phone it can do it. Seems does not exist.

I do understand what you mean. It would have to be tested, however, there is a very good chance that it might since D6683 can simultaneously run on LTE bands using both SIMs which no Z3 Dual (D6633) can do. Most of the networks in Canada where I live use 3G for voice (same in Australia) and regular Z3 Dual is useless in such scenario, however, there is a chance it would work fine with D6683 which would become a dual SIM phone to go to except LTE bands.
Hope it can. Maybe will buy one to test it,directly.
Ok, Sony America and Sony China say it can't, as user niks wrote.
A Shop wrote on the sony z3 product crearly it can.
Will write to that Shop and to sony hong kong for the last time.
I don't know where to find my D6683 stock rom HELPPPP...!!!

S7 versions and their band frequencies in the US

Hi everyone,
I'm planning on buying the new S7 but I'm just interested in the Snapdragon version. Here in Europe we only get the chance to buy the Exynos one I will be visiting the US in the following months, and I would like to know if there is any US version for the S7 that has the following bands:
2G/GSM: 900, 1800 MHz.
3G/WCDMA: 900, 2100 MHz.
4G/LTE: 800, 1800 and 2600Mhz. - 1500 MHz will be deployed in a near future in Spain, so it's not so important -
I have been checking on the internet about several variants, but I didn't find any trustworthy source with that information. Thank you for your time guys!
Hey
I'd like to know the same.
I don't want the exynos one.
The snapdragon 820 model will get Cyanogenmod and other roms..

Thank you Blade22222 for the information. I still don't have really clear if there is an US version that matches the bands I described on the post. I'm afraid it won't be possible. I'm trying to get some more inforation but I don't find anything

You will be fine if you buy a US version and get it unlocked to work on any carrier globally.
You can compare the above bands from the last post with this list of frequencies to confirm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LTE_frequency_bands
EDIT: You can also look at T-Mobile's bands here, they are almost identical the Verizon one: https://support.t-mobile.com/community/phones-tablets-devices/android/samsung_galaxy_s_7#id_1299991

Honor 6 H60-L04 not supporting 4G in USA

Greetings,
I purchased Honor 6 H60-L04 in India during December 2015 in India.It is working fine did not find any issues.Last Week moved to US started using the same mobile in US with lycamobile.As per my plan i should get 4G data connection but i am getting only 2G connection.But in India i was getting 4G connection.Spoke to the lycamobile support team they are not able to help me.If anyone can assist it will be great help.
Honor 6 supports:
Name
B1 (2100) LTE
B3 (1800 +) LTE
B7 (2600) LTE
B20 (800 DD) LTE
B38 (TD 2600) LTE
Lycamobile LTE bands:
Name
B2 (1900 PCS)
B4 (1700/2100 AWS 1)
B12 (700 ac)
The LTE frequency bands used in the US by the top 10 carriers are as follows:
LTE band 2 (1900 MHz) - T-Mobile, Metro PCS
LTE band 4 (1700/2100 MHz) - T-Mobile (primary), Metro PCS, Verizon (urban areas)
LTE band 5 (850 MHz) - US Cellular
LTE band 12 (700 MHz) - T-Mobile, Metro PCS, US Cellular
LTE band 13 (750 MHz) - Verizon (primary)
LTE band 17 (700 MHz) - AT&T
LTE band 25 (1900 MHz) - Sprint (primary)
LTE band 26 (800 MHz) - Sprint
LTE band 41 (2500 MHz) - Sprint
So unfortunately you will not get 4g LTE in the US on a Honor 6 H60-L04, whichever carrier you choose.

Thanks for the prompt response I appreciate your help.I am not position to buy a mobile as I just relocated and cannot change the network also as the plan suits me is
there any other option to get 4g in the honor mobile .

Unfortunately no, since the frequency bands are a hardware component and there is no way to make a phone work on a different band than it was originally built for.
If it was software related there could be workarounds, but not in your case. Best you can do is maybe swap your phone with someone going back to India!

Carrier Aggregation? Which bands does this device support (FRD-L04)?

I can't seem to find the list of CA bands. I saw it before but can't seem to find it again.
FRD-L04 supports the following bands
GSM
850
900 (E-GSM)
1800 (DCS)
1900 (PCS)
UMTS
B1 (2100)
B2 (1900 PCS)
B4 (1700/2100 AWS 1)
B5 (850)
LTE
B2 (1900 PCS)
B4 (1700/2100 AWS 1)
B5 (850)
B7 (2600)
B12 (700 ac)
B17 (700 bc)
and since its an LTE-A device, Carrier aggregation is possible.

Where did you get this information from? There's a site called FrequencyCheck claiming this, but it contradicts the information from Huawei/Honor - and Honor's live chat confirms it is incorrect. I'm not going to have my Honor 8 for a few weeks, but I sincerely hope this information is incorrect.
The official information (from https://store.hihonor.com/us/honor-8/specification ) is:
LTE FDD: B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B7/B8/B12/B17/B20, WCDMA: B1/B2/B4/B5/B8, GSM: 850/900/1800/1900MHz
Interband CA: B2-B17,B5-B4,B5-B2,B2-B12,B2-B4 Intraband Continuous CA: B2
Given I plan to use this phone in the UK, I'm obviously seriously hoping that this is the correct set of info...

Oh. Got that info from that FrequencyCheck website only.
According to the Official website it has B8 and B20 in addition to the bands I mentioned in my post.
If confusion over sources is the problem, why not take a look at the FCC's tests? https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/repo...id=RVnBofSaGkQDhYOqmiLX/A==&fcc_id=QISFRD-L04
The RFExposure document says that only the downlink of Release 10 CA is supported, with a max of two carriers. It does not have R10 uplink CA, ESC-FDMA or Uplink MIMO, or any other R10 features. Uplink comms are R8 specs. (Sect 1.3.3)
(7.1.17 has some more info on CA.)
In that same document, there's a power reduction specsheet showing the distribution of each band over various antennas. From there, it looks like these are the supported bands:
GSM:
- 850
- 1900
UMTS:
- II
- IV
- V
LTE:
- 2
- 4
- 5
- 7
- 12
- 17
(Sect 1.3.2)
Section 1.3 has a really clear listing, since it's the EUT (Equipment Under Test) Description. It lines up with the above information.
So @AllieKitty, the FCC doesn't mention anything about LTE/UMTS B1, B3, B8 or B20, not does it say GSM900 and GSM1800 are supported. It's possible they just didn't test those bands, since they aren't really used here, but I think they'd still be listed in the Device Configuration.

Is there a reason to not get the FRD-L09 (VAT or something)? It supports LTE 3, 7, 20.

So @AllieKitty, the FCC doesn't mention anything about LTE/UMTS B1, B3, B8 or B20, not does it say GSM900 and GSM1800 are supported. It's possible they just didn't test those bands, since they aren't really used here, but I think they'd still be listed in the Device Configuration.

Is there a reason to not get the FRD-L09 (VAT or something)? It supports LTE 3, 7, 20.

The FRD-L09 doesn't support bands 2, 4, and 12 though. Also, it costs a LOT more - got my L04 (in my friend's possession in the US right now) for $259.99 on Amazon.
As for the FCC... that means nothing... the L14 has the same FCC tests. ONLY bands used in the US get tested by the FCC. Which makes the band 7 tests odd, as band 7 isn't used in the US yet - but it is used in Canada. My understanding is that band 7 is a possibility for future use in the US, which is probably why this needed testing.
PS thanks for the FCC link, I found the correct list under the description of equipment in the RF test report:
FRD-L04 is subscriber equipment in the GSM/WCDMA/LTE system. The GSM frequency band includes GSM850 and
GSM900 and DCS1800 and PCS1900. The UMTS frequency band is B1 and B2 and B4 and B5 and B8. The LTE
frequency band is B1 and B2 and B3 and B4 and B5 and B7 and B8 and B12 and B17 and B20. But only GSM850 and
GSM1900MHz,UMTS frequency B2 and B4 and B5,LTE frequency B2 and B4 and B5 and B7 and B12 and B17
bands test data included in this report. The Mobile Phone implements such functions as RF signal receiving
/transmitting, LTE/HSPA/UMTS and GSM/GPRS/EDGE protocol processing, voice, video MMS service, GPS, AGPS,
NFC and WIFI etc. Externally it provides one micro SD card interface (it can also used as SIM card interface),
earphone port (to provide voice service) and one SIM card interface. FRD-L04 is single SIM smart phone. It also
provides Bluetooth module to synchronize data between a PC and the phone, or to use the built-in modem of the phone
to access the Internet with a PC, or to exchange data with other Bluetooth devices.

Me too! The band 7 testing is odd. Those frequencies are used in the US for TD-LTE (as band 41). Band 7 is a theoretical possibility from my understanding but unlikely. Sprint would be in the best position to try to get their spectrum paired to use as band 7, but why? TD-LTE offers benefits FDD-LTE doesn't in efficiency. Canada uses B7 tho, so that may explain it.
Anyway, to reiterate for OP's sake in case it got lost in the crowd:
Interband CA: B2-B17,B5-B4,B5-B2,B2-B12,B2-B4 Intraband Continuous CA: B2
I have confirmed EU-version (FRD-L09) CA Combos: https://cacombos.com/device?model=FRD-L09 - only Contiguous CA seems support.
