[Q] Best model for my use in Canada and India - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey I need some expert advice on which model of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 to purchase.
What frequencies I require:
UMTS networks:
-Wind Mobile Canada: AWS Band IV(1700)
-Airtel India: Band I (2100)
LTE networks:
-Airtel India: Currently using TDD Band 40 (2300) but only in select cities; will be replaced by nationwide deployment in 2015 which will use FDD Band 3 (1800)
-Wind Mobile Canada: Currently does not have LTE, but I presume it will use FDD Band Band IV (1700) when deployed,however as they are yet to purchase adequate spectrum, this could be different.
All input appreciated, thank you.

Neither. Get a note 2

The N910U model looks like it might be good but it's still too soon to say for certain.
Take a look at the specs at: http://www.samsung.com/nz/consumer/mobile-phone/smartphone/smartphone/SM-N910UZWENZC

Thanks, but unfortunately it lacks band IV UMTS, which my carrier in Canada uses.

[Q] Band Geniuses- will this work on ATT?

All,
I cannot keep all the frequencies and bands straight, but it would be awesome if this phone worked on ATT, especially 4G. Becuase this has a removable battery and SD card.

Doesn't ATT use 700mhz for LTE?

I don't live in the US, but I think VZW uses 700 for LTE and AT&T uses 1700/2100 for LTE. Correct me if I'm wrong.

ATT uses 700Mhz block b and AWS (1700/2100) in some areas
Verizon uses 700Mhz block a.
To answer your question OP, you'll have GSM/Voice, but no HSPA or LTE
Ok. Thanks. This is a no go.

Can anybody help with an answer, so I can decide if its worth it to buy this phone.
What about T-Mobile US and F320

If you ask questions like this it would really help if you supply the bands used by the carrier.
Seems t-mobile operates AWS in U.S. so that would be 1700/2100
Please note the spec list on the linked page is dodgy as duck, the battery supplied with the Korean versions is 2600 (two are supplied, plus a charger) and not the listed 3000
And the phone supports a lot more bands than listed there

It does, you will just have to be rooted and flash either an older radio or a hybrid radio to use LTE

Oh you lucky devil. LTE Advanced is the next step beyond LTE. It's called True 4G because LTE technically isn't 4G. There are very few places and carriers that use LTE Advanced today because it's so new. Anyway, the Nexus 4 won't be able to use LTE Advanced because it doesn't have the proper hardware. In fact, I've only heard of one major phone that has the hardware, a special GS4 that Samsung released in markets that could use it. I'm sure there are others, but that's all I've heard.
If I may ask, where do you live? I'm just curious as to where they're rolling out LTE Advanced.

I come from the tiny little island called "Malta" in the heart of the med. I suppose for the first time in history were actually technologically advanced. Vodafone just announced it this morning and I got in-contact with someone who works there. Shame nobody will be able to benefit from it immediately
Sorry I don't think Vodafone use Band 4. You might want to wait for the announcement of the Nexus 5. There is some rumor it will support all the LTE bands, though its unconfirmed.
You can see the list of LTE bands here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks

[Q] SM-N910U

I just bought a galaxy note 4 SM-N910U
I'm trying to figure out if it supports LTE in Canada (Rogers)
I've read conflicting sites that say it can do LTE and some other sites that say it won't.
Whats the verdict on this?

I'm on virgin (bell Canada), and my N910U gets LTE, although it burns the battery like nobody's business. So I've switched it back to HSPA+.

4G and LTE are referred to the same thing.

Does LTE work in Tmobs or VZW is US?

Just curious about signal. I just got a OP5 which I am returning and need a new phone. This looks like a good replacement if it works in US. Thanks!!

From the phone specs these are the working bands:
2G: GSM B2/B3/B5/B8; CDMA BC0
3G: WCDMA B1/B2/B5/B8; TD-SCDMA B34/B39
4G: FDD-LTE B1/B3/B4/B5/B7/B8/B12/B20, TDD-LTE B34/B38/B39/B40/B41
It's fully compatible with most of the European countries. You could check if they are supported by your mobile carrier in the States.
The trouble is that there's no International/Global ROM yet and, therefore, no support for the Google services framework. I'm also interested in this phone, since the OP5 was a deception. But until an international ROM arrives and developer support is confirmed, I'm holding.
Missing band 2 fro T-MOBILE.
Thought about it as well. But it says you can't get Google play store.
Band 2 is not used having in my area. So this phone would work for me .

Looks like it will work on Verizon all though no LTE band. I would love to try it. Hopefully international version is released soon!
