On other US market Android devices I've had, although the GPS works in the US, it doesn't work in Europe. How is the US S7 in this regard?
Gps works fine in the US

Hi All,
I'm not sure whether this has been posted before, but whilst browsing the web today, i came across the website where i got my i9000 SGS from and it now states they are selling the Captivate (AT&T version) and Vibrant (T-mobile) galaxy S's.
They ship worldwide too I think, so if anyone is interested: www.mobicity.com.au
and vibrant link: http://www.mobicity.com.au/samsung-vibrant-galaxy-s-16gb.html
and Captivate: http://www.mobicity.com.au/samsung-i9000-galaxy-s-nextg.html
Both have their respective US carrier branding though.
If i knew that they would sell these, I would've waited a couple more months to get the Captivate
WHY??
BOTH those models lack the front facing camera and the FM radio!
Mobicity sells everything (thats where I got my mobile), but it would be silly to buy phones which are more locked down
I imagine he wanted the Captivate because it works on Next G (Telstra) 850mhz frequency. A lot of people in Australia live in areas where Telstra has better coverage than Optus. The international version doesn't work with 3G on Telstra but works on all the other networks that use 900/2100Mhz 3G
most USA resident will prefer the Canada Vibrant over their own localized and crippled version of Captive/Vibrant

In Australia we don't have a crippled version at the moment.. Telstra are getting their own version anyway though:

So, with the GPS fix "unsure" (I believe it will be fixed honestly, but I don't have proof), it might be worth waiting for the Telstra version anyway.
Nice price on the Vibrant. I've bought a couple of phones from Mobicity.
Hi,I have HTC HD2 EU.
I'll be visiting USA soon...
Does this phone will work fine or I'ill have huge signal drops?
Thanks.
i think it should work pretty well. i got a US t-mobile phone working v. well here in Jordan, 3G and all.
I knew that Europe&middle east have a good spreading of US network bands.
I was wondering if there is a list of non us models that work fine on att in the US. I was thinking about getting an unlocked 910F but I want to be sure it will work propoerly on atts network including lte.
According to the specs, 910F model will cover all bands of AT&T model, so I think it should work on AT&T.
Thanks for the info. I am hoping that actually does work without issues. Can anybody confirm that this model work on the att network without issues?
Apologies if this has been covered, or if this is the wrong place to post--I've searched and have been unsuccessful in finding an answer so I figured I'd ask myself.
Is the G935FD (Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Duo dual sim) variant fully compatible with AT&T? That is, will it work with enough LTE bands such that I should expect fast enough data throughput? I know that it wont be able to access all AT&T LTE bands, but for practical purposes, will this phone work? It seems to be selling relatively cheaply on eBay, so before pulling the trigger I figured I would just double check that it will work. I don't care so much about having multiple sim cards, I mostly just want a cheap(er) phone.
I'm fairly convinced that the G935F will work based on a few other threads I came across on XDA and Reddit. Just looking for confirmation that the G935FD works and works well. Anyone have experience to share here?
Cheers and thanks in advance.
I have two international G935F's, one G935FD and one G935F, both on AT&T. Also an AT&T S6. I haven't had any issue with LTE. All give comparable speedtest results and all are using LTE Band 2 in my area (SF Bay area). I think they may be missing Band 30 but I don't know where that is used. The app LTE Discovery will show what band you are using. Things that don't work on the international phones for me are AT&T HDVoice (VoLTE) and AT&T Video calling. I also believe that if AT&T ever offers Voice over WiFi, that won't work either. These weren't issues for me. I was not expecting Samsung Pay to work but was surprised that it worked on the G935FD. Further investigation revealed that it was the CSC and image. I was able to download different images and got it working on the G935F as well. There's a thread on Samsung Pay on Int'l phones that discusses this if it matters to you. I think when you buy an international phone (G935F/FD) you don't know what CSC you'll get. I don't think the seller can tell without going thru setup and running a utility (I used Phone Info) to reveal the CSC/image. Everything else seems to work the same as the AT&T-branded versions.
I am thinking to buy one, but I was previously burnt on Nextbit Robin being not able to get data service in Canada. Robin could see voice and SMS, and latched on local Canadian carriers fine (Bell, and another one I forgot its name), just no data. Rumor says the manufacturer did not certify this device with any carriers outside of USA.
I want to make sure that this Pro3 can get data in Canada. I am on T-Mobile.
FYI, regular OEM devices such as V20, S3, S4, S7, Moto G4 Play all worked fine in Canada.
I'd appreciate if anyone can share their experience with this phone in Canada. Thanks,
T-mobile is a US carrier not Canadaian, but nonetheless Le pro 3 will work as it has AWS.
I know for a fact cause I'm on Freedommobile that also uses AWS for 3g data and it works fine, LTE is another matter.
I think all Pro 3 HK variants only have 1700/2100 LTE, not 3G. Should work with all carriers in Canada AFAIK, though I'm not sure about Freedom.
