These are the frequencies supported by the phone:
2G Network : GSM GPRS EDGE 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz
3G Network : UMTS HSDPA UMTS 800, 850, 2100 MHz
4G Network : LTE 800, 1500, 1800, 2100 Mhz
I did a little research and it seems Spanish providers use UMTS 900/2100 for 3G and 1800/2600 for 4G so in principle there shouldn't be a problem, i remark in principle because the frequenties used might vary from one provider to another.

We will get it soon! Must be strong! For the manual I reported it a few message before as pointed out by Raimondo.
Cheers,

Has anyone figured out how to root or at least temp root? I'm getting mine from Kyoex as well (bought it 2 days ago) and all I want to install is Xposed framework
And I believe there is only 3G for now (I'm not sure if it's just for people in the USA or everyone worldwide), i have an LG G2 so I'll be leaving 4G LTE for 3G But it doesn't matter I'll have the coolest phone ever!

Morning there,
yes, it doesn't support the 900MHz in UMTS... did you get it on your hands? Mine is coming... it is really hard to get it quickly.

[Q] Buying decision: H60-L12?

Hey guys,
I found the Honor 6 on the web and would like to buy it, but only with NFC.
Unfortunately the version officially available for my country (H60-L04) doesn't support NFC.
Now I'm considering buying an H60-L12 on the web and would be grateful if you could answer the following questions:
Does the H60-L12 work with Austrian networks?
Does 4G/LTE work in Austria?
Is german language available for H60-L12?
I've heard that in the menu there are still some chinese letters, even if you switch the language to English (or another language). Is that true?
Would it be possible to flash the firmware of H60-L04 on H60-L12 and still make use of NFC (and could this also have an effect on network compatibility)?
According to what I've found on the web, the following frequencies are used in Austria:
2G: GSM 900, GSM 1800
3G: UMTS 2100
4G: LTE 2600 (B7 2600, B20 800 FDD)
I've read that the H60-L12 supports the following:
2G: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz
3G: UMTS(WCDMA): B1(2100MHz)/B8(900MHz)
4G: FDD-LTE: B1(2100MHz)/B3(1800MHz); TDD-LTE: B41(2496-2690MHz)
So it seems to me that 2G & 3G should work but 4G not? Or maybe it does (don't know what exactly FDD & TDD means and the frequency 2600 would be included in TDD)?
Is there anything else I have to consider?
Optionally: Can you name alternative smartphones for me?
I prefer an android smartphone with display size about 5", 2-4GB RAM, at least 8GB internal memory, SD card slot, infra-red, NFC support, camera should not be that bad.
Fingerprint and LTE would be nice but not a must have.
Regarding UI I like HTC Sense and Emotion UI but I am also open for others.
So far I've had bad experience with samsung phones...
Currently I am using my HTC Sensation XE running ViperS 5.2.1 and love the Venom Tweaks.
Thanks in advance for your replies.

Check if there are other network carriers in your country that support B1 or B3 freq bands for 4G. If yes, then 4G will work if you switch to that carrier.
Chinese fonts wont be an issue as it shows only in dialer app where location of call is shown in chinese fonts. It can be removed by changing region via root.

Is this for the international SM-G935F version ? Because everywhere I look (on the internet), I don't see the FDD LTE band 28 supported. It would be great if it was as we have a FDD LTE Service on band 28 that starts as early as April 2016 here (Paris, France)
UPDATE: apparently, according to Vodafone New Zealand, it does support band 28

I unpacked the boot.IMG and checked the ramdisk and the s7 also has force encrypt enabled. Meaning it's encrypted at first boot and can't be unencrypted without flashing a modified image.

Can anyone shed any light on the difference b/t LTE and LTE Roaming, if i decide to get the 820 Tmobile version instead of the international exynos version will i still be ok? (im on bands 1,3,7) so i would assume ill be "roaming" the entire time....

Bootloader unlock is same as al other G's, get code from Motorola and unlock. For me root and twrp are the 2 starters. I have no doubt development will soon follow. (mainly as I'll give it a shot when twrp and root are available)

List of Moto G4 Plus variants and their respective bands. I will try to update this list as more information becomes available:

Sigh, I ordered it here in germany, got the XT1642 model. Does this mean I won't be able to take it back to the US and use it with Verison? (CDMA)
Is there anyway to patch the modem to allow for CDMA, or do certain models have different HW

Op can you correct your info as there is a 64gb with 4gb version

You could probably use something like QPST to turn on the processor's CDMA support, but the GSM-only models probably lack the necessary antenna setups for CDMA reception.
Plus, I doubt the XT1642 would be on Verizon's activation whitelist.

Same here, just bought Indian version XT1643, can't connect to French LTE bands http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/help/change-baseband-t3403822/page1
How i can do that with QPST, or better, with a Linux/Unix tool ???

General [Info & Reviews] Canada & the SM-S908N / SM-S908E

Hello hello!
Thought I'd share my experience purchasing and using my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra SM-S908N, the South Korean model, in Canada!
I'll be providing as much pertinent and accurate information as I can, but please note while its been great for me your experience may differ. The SM-S908N & SM-S908E both share the same bands and will work the same in Canada. This article will only refer to my device the SM-S908N.
Feel free to ask questions! I'll try my best to remember to reply, but don't ask me about CSC or 5G.
Bulletin
: The Nonomancer Report
(22-11-03)
- The article isn't dead! Waiting on OneUI 5.0 to make it easier to manage and finish this work. For readers, don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Please note, I can't help with Android/Samsung Pay or CSC.
(22-07-20)
- Added warning about ZOOAUX. Got a second one that is garbage and returned it. There's so many garbage adapters it's unreal! Ordering more adapters soon will add to the review section. Should have time to update rest of article soon.
(22-07-14)
- User Starman2021 has written an article about flashing CSC and getting 5G for Canadian providers. I will attempt it soon, for science, but won't be able to test 5G unless I can find a SIM to borrow. Please report your experience on his article, I will update this article to reflect it.
- I've cancelled the MediaFire subscription / Magisk ROM project until I make a proper decision about how I will get involved in the S22 community. The uploaded files will remain but will expire. I will find a different host soon and re-upload.
- I'm still dealing with stock ROM config and there's a lot left to do. I'll update this article soon and add more technical data and my debloat script.

PLEASE NOTE - This is a reference only.
- Do not limit yourself to this article for information.
- I will not provide any help if you encounter any issues by executing on what you read here.
- I have not tested my ROMs. If your model or region differs, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
- The ROMs provided will not be kept up to date routinely.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
TLDR​- Works perfect on Telus/Public Mobile network. It setup provider and mobile data info automatically.
- Rooting the device takes a few minutes with Magisk.
- You may have issues with 5G. It might work, but I'll need testimonies and anecdotal data! Get involved.
- Some 4G/LTE & a 5G band are missing which could affect your experience. Review your provider bands!
- At the time of purchase, the SM-S908N was 2-300$ cheaper than the SM-S908E listings.
Special thanks to Williamtung, 52yt & Hamid Chikh, for guiding me with your words of wisdom! I wouldn't have and love my S22 the way I do without your work. And of course, the XDA community! <3

Device Bands and Service Compatibility​
WARNING
- The SM-S908N is missing the 5G band B71 and 4G LTE bands B14, B29 & B30 of the Canadian Model which might be used by your service provider. This could negatively impact your experience!
- I do not have 5G with my provider so I can't and will not be testing it.
- 5G most likely doesn't work. I will consider it so until someone confirms otherwise.
Please take the time to review the bands used by your provider.

It works like a charm! During setup, the phone downloads the provider details. My provider name showed up and mobile data worked instantly.
Perfect operation on the Telus / Public Mobile network!

Accessories​
INFO
I spent days researching the accessories to avoid getting lemons and still got caught. In case you might also need some accessories, here's what I got!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Protective Case
Spigen Optik Armor (with camera cover) Acceptable!
- Perfectly content aside from it being a cheap case.
- Looks & feels amazing to hold. Wobbly when handling case without phone.
- Lays crooked because of camera cover.
- Camera cover / sliding mechanism's build quality is very poor. Hard to slide.
- Had to drill hole in camera cover to allow flashlight through.
- No issues with wireless charging. Camera cover slightly in the way of the phone's charger coil.
- Makes the stylus slightly harder to pull out, but not a problem with normal length nails.
Screen Protectors
Liquid UV Tempered Glass: Not tested yet. Ordered the Mowei [3+2 Pack] with stellar reviews.
- Will install soon.
TPU: Not tested yet. Ordered the EGV with stellar reviews.
- Will not install. Only there as backup in case I royally mess up the tempered glass install.
USB-C Audio Adapters
WARNING
- The S22 Ultra only supports adapters with Hi-Fi DAC chips and they don't all perform the same. Your experience may differ depending on your hardware.
- The adapters listed below were not thoroughly tested and I can't speak for their durability over time.
- Splitter adapters cause annoying, but short disconnects. For example, if you are listening to music and then plug the power, it will disconnect and reconnect the cable. Thanks Samsung!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
CableCreation 2-in-1 (T-shaped model) **Refunded**
- Audible white noise (hissing) during playback, with a click/pop at the end of each sound.
Stouchi USB-C to 3.5mm (2 pack) **Refunded**
- LOUD audible white noise (hissing) during playback, with a LOUD click/pop at the end of each sound.
ZOOAUX 2-in-1 (B094Z6149B) Acceptable! *WARNING*
- Clear sound with no artifacts. Got hissing once with no clicks, reconnecting fixed it.
- WARNING: I ordered a 2nd one and the new one had loud noise and clicks/pops.
USB-C Headphones
Skullcandy Sport (S2SXY-N740) Acceptable!
- No audible artifacts. Sounds like any good 20$ headphones.
- Bad shape and size of earbuds/gels masks all the bass, give a bad noise cancellation and bad fit.
- Perfect for duolingo and falling asleep to Futurama!
Other Adapters
UGREEN MicroSD to USB-C Acceptable!
- Must be plugged in directly.
- Doesn't work when used on other adapters or docks/hubs (At least from my experience).
Device Setup Tips​The first screen(s) will be in Korean!
If there's no SIM in the phone, you'll be greeted with the first setup page. The drop down arrow you see will let you switch to your language of choice. View example here.
If a SIM is inserted, there will be a warning about mobile data charges before the first setup page. See translated pic here.

Awesome. Thank you for documenting it!
I'll link to it in my article and I'll try to setup my CSC in the following weeks.
If possible and not too time consuming, I'll try to research and document/backup the different CSC files from our providers in case there are nuances between them. I'm not making any promises tho, this effort could turn out to be a waste of time.

Guys I have just received a Korean 512GB S908N, the phone seems to have a Snapdragon CPU. And not an Exynos as some threads suggest..
S908N TWRP EXYNOS ???
Please help me understand, searching has not led to any answers so far about what the CPU really is. The internet seems to have mixed feelings. I want to install a custom rom but to do so I need to install TWRP 1st.
What is happening?

You'll have to confirm with the dev from the TWRP EXYNOS thread. I haven't read it, it may already answer this question.

I have already messaged there as well and waiting to hear back... It is really weird...

FYI for anyone buying S908N, there is no eSIM for the korean version. Very crappy to realize this after the purchase!

I can't get 5g to work on the S908E on Rogers, Telus or Bell. Anyone figure out how to get 5g?
