DROID MAXX working perfectly on T-Mobile

spiral777 · Jan 9, 2014

My XT1080m is not the Developer Edition, and unrooted, but went to T-Mobile, swapped out my sim for a T-Mobile sim and everything is working perfectly.

Just switch preferred network to LTE/GSM/UMTS and data, phone calls, and texts work just fine

4GLTE the internet is great but i couldn't send texts

EDIT: T-Mobile network much more stable with this app...

Best settings will vary depending on where you are...

You won't be able to make phone calls or send sms while attached to the lte network on 4.4. It's a known bug.

That doesn't sound like "working perfectly" on TMo.

Has there been a fix for this issue yet?

AT&T

If this phone were working on TMobile, it should also work on AT&T. Right?

Finally decided to use that app and I got better speeds, not bad for Mexican carriers

is it possible to flash the radio from the moto x (att) onto the droid maxx dev edition to obtain LTE signal?

You can get lte just fine. The framework is not working properly.

AH ok, according to GSMarena, the Maxx lacks 850/1900mhz bands that the moto x has.

Thinking about getting the Maxx.. I am on T mobile...Do I need the DEV version ? If not does the VZ version need to be unlocked and rooted to work? Figure since this is last of the real Moto I would really like one to hang on to...TIA

No need to unlock or root anything. Keep in mind that you need to be on a particular version of 4.2.2 (mentioned earlier in this thread I believe) in order to get LTE speeds. If you update to 4.4 you will have issues with calling and texting unless you disable LTE and stick with HSPA+

That's how it was for me.... Data was great on LTE, but sms and mms weren't working... But switching to CDMA (H+) data is more than fast enough and txt and mms no longer have issues
