Which country do you live in?
Z3C has more frequency bands over the Z1C, so you can't just "flash" a hardware difference. The bands on Z1C should cover the whole of Europe though.
I am in US now. Ok so its a hardware thing? I thought some of that was software but i guess thats fine then.
There are some frequency capability differences, according to Phone Arena:

Yes this looks like what i wanted but its way over my head. I dont have the time to try to do that.. to bad they dont have a flashable zip or something.
before you try flashing radios, you might want to try his apn settings. (make a record of your current ones first.)
Hi, if you are in the US now then your issue is more than likely LTE Band 17 which Z3 compact has and Z1 compact does not. Band 17 is used by AT&T in the US in many places. Band 17 is the 700 mghz frequency. AT&T also uses band 2, 4 and some places 5... But many places they only have 17 so you will have to reply on HSPA in those areas...
Many cities use a combination of 17 and 4 OR 17 and 2...so you will get some LTE service..
Hope that helps...
