Missing AT&T Bands 29 and 30...

[holz75]

Should AT&T users be worried that the new U11 does not include bands 29 and 30? After doing some Googling, it does seem that these bands are pretty important especially in congested areas like LA or NYC.

I think it's not hardware limitation, you can patch the baseband later since s-off

That's unfortunate. While it's not going to impact coverage, it will impact prerformsnce.

What does that have to do with the OP?

If it's not a hardware limitation which means HTC could open up those bands via a update.

It seems like 29 and 30 helps with speed and not reception/signal strength? I doubt this would be a big issue but if this is indeed not a hardware limitation then I don't see why htc couldn't enable 29 and 30 in a software update.


Maybe us at&t users should make some noise on there twitter...

I wonder if LineageOS gets ported to this phone, could it implement these missing bands?

Is it possible to enable these bands?
