Default Wanna buy, What do you Recommend?

Hello guys,

I am planning on buying this phone because its great. But before I do I wanted to get some things straight.

To start I live in Mexico, and im planning on buying it from Ebay, so the phone will most likely be an AT&T version phone. Will EDGE/2g/3g/4g work outside the US, 4G and the rest are available in my area but ive read that sometimes that and the WiFi gets messed up when you root it. I definitely want to root it, so I can use Titanium backup and other apps that need root. Basically my question is... Will there be any problems if I buy a US (American) phone and use it in my country(Mexico)? I dont want any custom rom or other complicated things, All I need is this phone rooted. What do you think?

Any answers would be greatly appreciated

Data type (2g, 3g, LTE...etc) all depends on your carrier...what carrier do you have?

If you only root it...WiFi and everything else will stay the same

If you start flashing custom Romd...then you may expietence some new bugs/bad WiFi

Also if your a flashaholic and love flashing new Roms on a daily basis...then this phone is not for you, it only has a few roms...but what few it has are very stable with many customizable features...
Since you say you only want it rooted you should be good as stock...

I use Telcel, TELCEL's network is 1900 Mhz for GSM and 850 Mhz for 3G

So I guess I will be ok because I would not want to flash roms on it, as a matter of fact I havent flashed one on my current phone. So its not something I want.

So thanks for the help bro
