Hi,

I'm also using the Sprint HTC One outside the US (Bangalore, India) and unlocked the phone using the method posted in one of the threads here. I can use both 2G (900 Mhz) and 3G (2100 Mhz).

What band does your operator use for 3G? Maybe, that is not supported.

Also, have a look at the access point. For me, every time i change the network mode, the APN automatically gets set to cinet.spcs. I have to manually change it back to the correct APN and then it starts working again.

3g operates on 850Mhz
4G LTE on 1800 MHz, 2100 MHz

and the APN changes back , thats right
damn

no 3g for me

hi. I've seen your posts in the unlock thread and you seem to have done it successfully. I live next door (Bangladesh) and I was thinking of getting a sprint htc one from the states. Anyway did you ever face any issues regarding data and what not? And when you do use 3g, what's the data icon in the status bar?

3G - UMTS/ HSPA:
Europe/ Middle East/ Africa: : 900/1900/2100 MHz with HSDPA up to 42 Mbps
Asia: 850/900/1900/2100 MHz with HSDPA up to 42 Mbps
Canada/ Latin America: 850/1900/2100 MHz up to HSDPA 42 Mbps
T-Mobile (US): 850/ AWS/1900/2100 MHz with HSDPA up to 42 Mbps
AT&T: 850/1900/2100 MHz with HSDPA up to 21 Mbps
Sprint: 1900/2100 MHz with HSDPA up to 14.4 Mbps

850!=1900/2100

An issue i've been facing repeatedly is that if i go out of network range, i have to manually select the operator again. It doesn't switch automatically.

Also, sometimes the APN changes automatically to cinet.spcs and i'll have to manually enter the correct APN settings again.

All in all, nothing major. You can buy it if you can live with these minor issues.

The data icon remains the same i.e. GSM irrespective of 2G or 3G. I'm running Viper 1.1.0 ROM btw.

850 = 1900/2100 ?

TELCEL carries uses 850

Suponiendo que eres de mexico, != significa distinto. En otras palabras nunca podras tener 3g con esa banda.

si usara uno de esos podria obtener una conexion mejor ?

Hi, I am trying to use an unlocked Sprint HTC one with airtel in Bangalore but I am not getting any 3G data from airtel, my phone shows GSM symbol and I guess it is getting 2G data,
Which carrier did you choose and how did you get the 3G data.

I'm on Airtel. Switch to WCDMA only in the Network settings menu and you should be good to go.
