the difference is the LTE bands, pakistan does not have any 4g (last time i checked), it has recently (last 5-8 years) got 3g so i think both should be ok
i am from the uk and when i go pakistan (sargodha and lahore) all of my uk phones work there, nokia, iphone, nexus 4 so it is up to you which you buy

We have 4g in Pakistan.

Which network? Also find out which LTE band they run on and check the Europe and USA product page on the google play store of the nexus 6. It has the LTE band numbers listed there.

Here is the application from the FCC Website:
https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas...e=N&application_id=977164&fcc_id='A3LSHVE160S
This is the Korean unit that will be compatible with T Mobile I am still not convinced that we could not get 3g on the ones already out there. Again, this will be a snapdragon chip configuration like the SGS2 for TMO
I guess I have no choice but to hold off and get the Korean one even though my impatience is driving me crazy and wants to buy it now. I also saw that somebody posted the radio frequencies of the Netherlands one and it had all the bands but all I have is his picture to confirm it with no actual proof that I could find on the net.

May be I should follow you. But is LTE so special?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
I don't want it for the LTE I want it because i'm on tmobile and the korean one supposedly has the same chip as tmobiles sgs2 so I'd have a better chance getting 3g speeds on tmobile with the korean one.
The Korea model will be the first with NFC right? Or is the india model nfc enabled?
Hope this launches soon. I really need a NFC enabled Note ASAP.
So far I just see Korea

1. FCC is USA only governing body for all wireless and wired communications - it has nothing to do with Korea, or any other country. Devices, which are designed for other countries than US do not get submitted to FCC.
2. I have reviewed all RF Exposure docs in that FCC listing like 2 weeks before you posted the link and I assure you there is no LTE radio on board and no LTE frequencies have been tested. Since it's officially confirmed by Samsung ST Telecom's Galaxy Note version will have LTE radio - even if we overlook the mere fact that FCC submission suggests this device is meant for US and not any other country - this device can't possibly be the korean version, since it doesnt have LTE radio.
3. According to the documentation this device doesnt even have 3G radio. It only has GSM, GPRS, WiFi 802.11a/b/g/n and Bluetooth.

I hadn't seen this - what kind of processor? Is is faster?
Like a few of you, I've been holding out for the Korea release to pull the trigger. I sure hope it's worth it...
On this Korea topic...
how does SK cellphone prices compare to U.S. and Europe ones?
and is it easy to find such phones on physical stores?
I ask because, tough I live in Brazil, my uncle works in SK, but he flies a lot and wouldn't be able to order and wait for a delivery.
baaj said:

Its supposed to have the same processor as Tmobiles SGS2 and from what I've heard the main reason they went with that processor is because it supports their HSPA+ 42 network the exynos processors don't

[Q] HTC One LTE Compatibility

I plan to buy and HTC One ASAP but prefer an unlocked version. Does anyone know if the LTE on an unlocked HTC One that I buy in the US or UK would be compatible with US AT&T. Is there a specific HTC One model number that would guarantee US AT&T LTE compatibility? Any recommended source for purchase?
The same question here also, but on Bell in Canada.

Won't work on bell. If you check the ltecovere map on Bell' the 3600 mnz band(150 Mbps) is very limited. Rogers got it covered in GTA, and expanding further in coming May. I even talked to s Bell rep, and he said that the 2600 MHz band is only for late rocket USB sticks on their network, no smart phones for now.

Hold off buying the Int'l version. 2600 only LTE will not work on AT&T (which is the only NAM LTE band the Int'l version supports).
Right now all the online sources (like Clove, Negri, Expansys, Handtec) are selling the Int'l version.
As I believe OP is based in the US, what you really want to wait for is the Developer's version, which will have 64GB of storage and AT&T-compatible LTE.

Developer Edition will be direct from HTC.
AT&T has announced they will have a 64GB carrier version, but timing is still unknown. Pre-Orders started today for the 32GB AT&T version.

Pricing and availability in the Netherlands

This purpose of this thread is to discuss the pricing and availability in the Netherlands.
Will we, as always, be overlooked again by Google and get the N5 during springtime with an extremely inflated pricetag?
Or will Google see us Dutchies and release it through the Play Store?
Nexus 5 is available here:

No way is Google going to be looking at The Netherlands, unfortunately. I'm going to Germany on the launch date as I'm sure we won't be able to purchase the device through the Play Store. Also, if regular webshops order a couple of devices, they'll price them at above €500,-, as they did with the Nexus 4.
Hoping Google will prove me wrong!

I ordered my Nexus 4 in the UK. I did it through a friend who lives there. I ordered it myself through a proxy server and used his address for the shipping. The first time (before I had to RMA) I could order with my own dutch creditcard. When I had to do an RMA because of a defect I had to order with a card registered on the same address where the phone will ship (Had to use the card of my friend). I think that this is still necessary. For the shipping to The Netherlands my friend used royal mail and it was about 10 Euro.

2-4 days maybe?
Nou ik ga hem in ieder geval niet kopen voor de achterlijke prijs van 459 euro, een ritje naar Duitsland misschien... (Mediamarkt Nordhorn?)
Well I am not gonna buy it for the extremely high price of 459 euros, maybe a trip to Germany...
Sounds like a roadtrip. I'm driving to Germany and get myself one there. You're all welcome to join!
If it has to go through the Playstore, I'm getting it from France through a friend.
Why don't I have friends in abroad country's?
I could easily get it from the USA. The problem is, I'm not sure if the version sold in the USA supports the LTE frequencies in The Netherlands. As of now, we have no clue as to which version Google actually released. Are they two separate versions or is a single version that supports all the LTE networks across the globe...
I am wondering about the bands as well, also does anyone have experience buying it through a friend and having it sent to you? Last time I bought t-shirts from the US, I had to pay the same amount as the t-shirts were in import taxes. I am kinda trying to not pay double the Google Store price
ps. Belgium here.

Note 4 North American variants

Hi all,
A general question about the Note 4 in North America -- Are all the phones distributed in North America the exact same model, save for the software on board?
Thanks!
Hardware-wise at&t and t-mo are possibly same model with different firmware. Verizon and Sprint possibly too (CDMA support). Metro PCS ? Most likely t-mo variant since they are using same network now. I'm only guessing.
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app
Yea, I'm wondering if the supported bands are the same across all the North American phones. I'm actually in Canada and wondering if I can grab the phone off one of the other carriers to use on my own (after unlock) and have the same supported bands.
Thanks for the quick reply!

It just depends on who your carrier is? The radios are the only thing different really.
Yea, I believe I read that Canada gets the North American version 910W8? So they're all identical.

SM-N910U Region Locked?

I'm considering getting a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910U from Hong Kong and was wondering if Samsung has started Region Locking their devices in Hong Kong since they have started doing this in Europe and America?
Do I have to activate with a Hong Kong SIM card before I can use it anywhere else in the world?
Any help would be most appreciated.

I live in HK and bought mine here. Use it regularly with Japanese, French and US SIM cards without any issues. You should be fine.

That's excellent thanks for the advice guys! I will let you know what I think of the device once I get it!
No lock, but be aware that in the UK you will be limited with the supported bands - for 4G you may have to go with EE or... Three? I forget now, it's been 6 months or so since I got mine.
Have a look at the supported bands, and compare to your UK supplier - I moved away from Vodafone for this exact reason.
I'm on a O2 Pay As You Go SIM , which from my research should work fine on the SM-N910U.
I'm on Rogers in Canada and my N910U works just fine. Although I seem to have constant ****ty cellphone reception that my s4 doesn't seem to have, both are on Rogers.
AFAICT O2 use 800 for 4G and 1800 for 2G, so you'll miss out on 4G if you use the N910U on O2 in the UK.
I could well be wrong, but that's what 5 minutes of googling told me.

I appreciate the info with regards to O2 and the Note 4 N910U. I did my homework too before reaching my decision If I do decide to get 4G I will switch to another network. But 2G will do me just fine for now as O2 has allot of free WiFi hotspots in the UK.

:good: Fair play, just so you know about the 4G bands - which you're well aware of
I do have another question with regards to cell reception on the Note 4. I've read a few comments from other Note 4 Users that they have experienced some cell reception problems. Has that happened to anybody else?
