I just ordered an (international) D855, which seems to have specs for LTE compatible with AT&T. Can anyone say for sure if this g3 will work with US AT&T LTE? and other AT&T systems ok?

Thank you.

I have the same question, D855 seems to have 700 and 1700 LTE bands on which Att operate here, so I am assuming it does get LTE

I paid $685 whixh I think is a good price. If it is fundamentally the same as the At&t version, then it's at least $100 less than AT&T typically charges for buying a device outright. And it's unlocked with 3Gb.

Well it all depends on if it works!

D855 4G LTE in the USA

D855 Network --> :LTE 700/800/900/1800/2100/2300/2600

No mention of the band 1700.

one of the US seller sells it in the USA and clearly mentions that this model will not support LTE in the USA. hope this helps.

LG G3 D855 LTE 32GB White Quad-core Android GSM unlocked phone

Please note that the LTE 4G network works in Europe and Asia only. 4G LTE 700 / 800 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2300 / 2600 network is not compatible in the United States.

I was on chat with AT&T the other day. They said the phone must have the 700mHz/band 17, it should in theory, work on their LTE. Also said if it has the 2100 it must have the 1700 as they rely on each other, but as long as it did have the 700 it could work although there were no guarantees. I have been eyeing up the d855 too but waiting for solid evidence first!

D855

if you would like to connect on AT&T 4G LTE on 700 MHz spectrum you would need band 17 and LG G3 - D855 supports LTE bands 3, 7, 20.

So you cannot get 4G LTE on D855. Hope this helps.

Wrong. It has the same bands as the f400k and such which has been proven to get LTE on AT&T. So why would this phone not get lte? This one has more bands.

Agreed, this should get LTE as long as it supports 700 mhz which it does and your area has 700 mhz frequency, Period!

The only thing it wouldn't get is LTE on tmobile all the time. But even tmobile has moved a lot of towers to the 1900mhz band.

Agreed, should have cleared on my last post that I was referring to AT&T.. which runs on 700 and 1700

Same exact bands. So why would the d855 not work?


Exactly. Stop spreading misinformation.

    Is yours working right out of box. Do you have d855 with HongKong firmware. Rogers LTE bands 4,7,17 all available in this phone.
    I played with my phone. I see band 17 in service menu but still its not working.
    When i choose LTE only , it fails saving the setting.

    Do you have any suggestions.

    Hi , It didnt work right out of the box , I got the D855 with UK version I believe . What I did was I went to settings and added a new APN for Rogers ltemobile.apn and then I went to playstore and I downloaded an app called LTE ON OFF with Red lightning Icon. Once I went in I saw the LTE/GSM feature and I enabled the LTE. IT is working like a charm and it saved the settings since I got it today morning . It is downloading over 45MB comparing to 4mb on 4G
