international version??

[DustinKimble]

I just got my nexus 6 in the mail and its an international version. I went to the attached store ,got it activated and it won't connect to LTE. I don't believe this has a LTE band that my town uses. What are my options here? Send it back and get the right variant or can I flash a modem to fix this?

where are you at? who is your provider? and what bands do they use? and any other info that you are missing(we arent mind readers here)..

Thanks for the prompt reply. I'm with att, Jackson ms. I have no clue of the band they are using here, I just noticed a couple bands missing from the international version listed on a web site.

my question is why the heck they would give away an international version in the united states? you cant even by one here.. if you go into the main settings, press more, cellular networks, prefered network type.. does it say lte?

I have no clue.... I'm in contact with the seller on amazon trying to figure that out. Yes it has LTE. I've already went through the APN settings also and corrected that.

Yes. It even has the international massive 3 prong charger in the box. I was wondering why....

Also read up that they use band 4 and 5. So it has band 5 but i think they have a lot of that deployed anyway. Send it back.
