Xperia Z C6602 LTE band IV AWS possibility

[diopskill]

Does the C6603 work on tmobile USA? Yeah i could sell in Germany but I don't get much in Germany for it anymore. Normally international phones sell pretty well in the us because no branding and unlocked. But a question. Flashing and C6606 or C6602 ftf to the C6603 wouldn't make it to work on lte then I guess? How about flashing a 6602 ftf to the 6603 would it at least get full hspa +?

On Att with c6603 here in philly, i get 3-5mbs, but tmobile was only edge. (yeah i know it sux). c6602 w/att about the same. but on tmo, i get around 6-7mbs down, 3 up, but since i changed apn settings on c6602, getting 14+mbs down CONSTANTLY!!! feels nice too. c6603 does not have lte bands for the states. but c6602 has them (1700/2100).

So flashing an ftf Form a C6602 or C6606 won't work then for the C6603? So I would have to choose att in the states or StraightTalk. Great lol

I have no issue with the USA but really the Americans like to make everything so it doesn't work with the rest of the world. Like the measurements you use and the mobile networks and stuff. It is a little bit annoying lol

What are those straight talk u buy directly from straight talk they cost 15 and then u just charge them. I already checked. And they are either att or t mobile u just have to select. And that's what straight talk says. A phone with 850 or 1900 should work. And a straight talk sim cost 14.99 plus the plan u choose.

yep. they also have tmobile too. but my only gripe with them is they only give you 1.5gb of data and then they cut you off. yes it has happen to me. but that is only with att. if you get the tmobile sim from net10 it is unlimited. but again only edge speeds on c6603. if you use wifi alot then 1.5gb is good and it is fast. i use alot of data. thats why i went and got a c6602. it is pentaband like nexus 4. and i agree with you on American phones, have not bought usa phone in 4years.

I hate this being branded simlock crap. Something like that is only on iPhone here. But if u actually buy in a store from apple it isn't sim locked. But the iphone is the only phone on carriers that's sim locked. Typically American foolishness lol. OK **** I have to sell the xperia z and i just the original sony charging dock. This sucks.

Hspa+ is most of the time the only thing I am getting here too Germany has lte but it isn't as far spread like it is in the USA. Anyway on att it will work on hspa + with no limitations is that correct? It will have everywhere where att has hspa + the C6603 will have it too?

OK then I keep it. I was thinking it was just limited hspa+ connectivity. Then I honestly don't see the point to have the C6602 since it official doesn't support lte. Either Europe nor USA official and when u get with the C6603 hspa + everywhere then there is actually no need for the C6602 or does the C6602 also gets it on T Mobile USA? I am on the original T mobile from Germany by the way. I would prefer t mobile in the USA again nut looks like I have to go with someone else. Thanks for ur help. I appreciate it.

yes the c6602 gets ALL hspa+ on both tmo and att. since c6603 does not support lte here in states, c6602 is the better option. no prob and good luck!:good:

 

[dante501]

Is there any other options I can choose besides att that use the same network bands? U told me net 10. Then there is jolt. But I heard they suck pretty bad. So is there anything else?
