Different versions in Europe/Australia - Xperia Z5 General

Hi all!
I´m travelling between europe and australia quite often. I had a mess with my HTC One (m7) because it didnt work well with the frequencies in australia. I now would like to get the new z5 (maybe the premium version) but I cant figure out if the versions differ in anyway between europe and australia. I read the white paper and it seemed to be the same spec. for both versions.
So my question is: how can I be sure that my phone works in both EU and Aus? Is there a phone that works everywhere?
Thanks!

That's indeed a very good question. Checked the white-paper myself and found specs for E6603 and E6653 are exactly the same, though they are listed in separate rows...
Edit:
Scroll down in the white-paper a little further and you find...
Data transfer speeds
LTE Cat 4 (E6603) Up to 50 Mbps (upload), up to 150 Mbps (download)
LTE Cat 6 (E6653) Up to 50 Mbps (upload), up to 300 Mbps (download)
That's it, all else is the same. Why the have two models, no idea.

There's a workaround for slightly older models, perhaps it can made to work with newer models. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2871269

You shouldn't have any issues as Australia uses most of the same band frequencies as Europe so LTE will work on both continents...

want to buy a HD2.Help!!

I know that there are two version for HD2:T version and htc version.The T version's RAM and ROM is larger than the htc's.But I wonder why the T version's price is cheaper than the htc's.And some people told me that the T version is unstable and can't install some ROM.(By the way,I'm from China.If I buy the HD2,I need brushing machine.)
I'm hesitated for a long time:which version should I buy?
So,what's your guys' opinion?
The t-mobile version is cheaper because t-mobile lowers the price for starting a 2 year service contract. The import (I'm in the US) version is purchased without a contract and is therefore unsubsidized. From what I've gathered the two variations are nearly identical in performance, build quality etc.
Thanks!This is my first oversea thread and I'm so glad that you give me a reply!
I thought that the T-Mobile HD2 was the one sold in the US and the other HD2 is the one sold in the rest of the world. Correct me if I'm wrong but they are pretty much the same except slight size and memory changes.

The UK one is the same as everyone's except the T-Mobile US model.
The US T-Mobile HD2 has a similar spec to the rest of the world, except it has a larger on-board memory (1Gb I believe) and an 'unlocked' larger RAM.

Actually that is not entirely accurate , the TMOUS has a different radio, as do some of the EU models , for instance if you want to use one on AT&T 3G in the states, you need the telstra model from OZ, as it supports the WCDMA 850 band , the US(TMO) version only supports 1700/2100 WCDMA for 3G.
Most all will work on all Providers , using standard GSM/EDGE freqs but not on 3G.
EDIT:
It seems though AT&T is cracking down on NON-AT&T devices though ....

Unlocked I9000 850/2100 MHz

There are a couple of threads around at the moment that are eluding to a 850 MHz version of the Galaxy S. I'm currently using an original UK I9000 (900/2100 MHz) and am sick of the terrible service of 900 MHz carriers in Australia.
As such, when people start getting their hands on 850 MHz unlocked Galaxy S would they mind listing the following information.
- Reseller / Carrier (if they sell outright)
- Reseller / Carrier Shipping Destinations
- Price
- Firmware Version
- Locked / Unlocked
Semi-related, I contacted HTC Australia a couple of times when I was considering purchasing the Desire. HTC confirmed with me that all versions of the Desire are absolutely identical in terms of hardware. This confirmed the research I had performed that the HTC's/Nexus' radio chip has the ability to support both 850/900 MHz (not necessarily simultaneously). So it is definitely the case that flashing firmware onto your phone can convert a 900 MHz phone to a 850 MHz phone or vice versa. However, the firmware that needs to be flashed probably isn't directly flashable using standard android tools. You probably require physical access to the radio frequency chip to flash firmware onto the chip as well as corresponding firmware onto the phone. Where I'm going with all this is...
If we have any electronically inclined people on these forums, on top of the above information I would love to know if someone is willing to investigate whether it is possible to dump radio chip firmware from their 850 MHz device.
EDIT: I'll include the list of phones below.

Thanks. I did notice that thread however, it's actually why I started this one. I just figured it would be a good idea to have a central place for people to upload information. So we can compare between resellers and learn a bit about the devices from each reseller once people get them in their hands.
I'm looking forward to see results from the New Zealand model, and Bell.
I'll try to pick up one tomorrow from Bell and see if it works, and if we can unlock it.
@All Gamer: Are you going to have the phone unlocked? Even though you still in the Bell network.
I be checking in everyday for this.
I also noticed that the model number for this unit is actually i9000. Is the CA and NZ model names are i9000 with quad band? or different like the us version of i897 and t959. Just wondering if they were different then the Euro Version.

inside the phone, after you take out the battery it's a GT-i9000M
firmware was something J?5 (forgot the middle letter)
the Euro/Asia version is GT-i9000
they actually finally revealed the updated page, 2 weeks ago it didn't have the Tech Spec yet
http://www.samsung.com/ca/consumer/...dex.idx?pagetype=prd_detail&tab=specification
oh wow! i just noticed something that i overlooked previously
check this out!!!
UMTS + GSM(850/900/1800/1900MHz)
http://www.samsung.com/hk/consumer/...dex.idx?pagetype=prd_detail&tab=specification
that is the Asia version of the GT-i9000 (same as Euro) but!!! it has both the 850+900+1900 band, but missing the 2100 band (which i don't really care as in America we don't have much use for the 2100, 90% of the network in USA/Canada is 850+1900)
i'm on Fido...

No idea about the CA model, but the NZ model is the same as the european just with the different radio bands but no ideas about when it will be released, I emailed samsung NZ asking about it but no response yet. All phones sold in NZ are unlocked even apples's iphone 4 which has an exclusive contract with vodafone here is sold unlocked.
interestingly enough the Asia version also has different radio than the NZ version, the NZ has 2100 band, but the Asia one doesn't in its place it keeps most of the lower bands
according to Wikipedia, seems like the only country that uses 2100 is Brazil http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM_frequency_bands
why would cell phones sold in Europe/NZ ship with that band?
dunno...
anyways @ AllGamer, where are you in canada?
i get decent 3g coverage in the GTA...unless i'm in a basement and some houses...
also how's your gps?
works fine for me everywhere i've tested... haven't had any issues with locking
longest i've taken i think is like 30 seconds for a lock outdoors
and that was from a cold start after i flashed a new rom

2100 is used here in NZ by vodafone but 2100 is used in loads of countries mainly through europe I think.

no problem as well, that's why i don't know why so many people are complaining about the GPS and "lag"
coming from Windows Mobile, this "lag" is nothing, GPS takes average 5~15 sec to pick up depending on weather, my old phone it takes 5 min to 1 hour to pick up
and waiting for the Windows software to load was always like an eternity, that's why iphone got so famous, because windows mobiles devices have always been slow, and i'm sure it will continue to be slow even with the same CPU, cuz my old phone was a 625Mhz CPU, and still didn't cut it, i OCed it to 650Mhz and it was not much better, but definitely noticeable... anyways.... the SGS i9000 is a dream to use.
GTA as well, 3G is mostly fine in most areas, but sometimes when you are down in the subway (the stations with open tunnels) it can't pick up 3G only G or Edge, and some parking lots
it is more a concern about traveling as, drive around Ontario/Quebec quite a bit, having the 850 band is a safety & bonus.
so if the new one from Bell works, i'll sell the UK i9000 version (sill in stock firmware but rooted)
thanks for the info man.
is that a demo one, or you purchased it already?
the past 2 days i've been trying to buy one to study it in detail, with no luck, as the sales guys didn't want to sell me their "demo" units

[Q] LTE Version

I think I've convinced myself to get one of these, but am wondering if I am correct in my understanding that there are 2 versions coming: One with LTE and one without.
If that is correct, will the LTE version still do everything radiowise (GSM/HSPA+ etc) and just also add LTE capabilities to the mix?
Finally, I am working in Sweden at the moment, I assume the LTE version will work with Telia's network (in LTE mode)?

This is what me and a lot of other people are wondering about. The marketing rep for Samsung said in a video that it will have HSPA+ AND LTE but does that mean two different models? Or that the capabilities of both are stock? The spec sheets don't say anything about LTE on any of the pre-order sites I've found but the samsung page says that it is an LTE device. I'm completely confused. I wanna buy the unlocked unbranded version but not if it doesn't include LTE...
I saw from somewhere that the Korean version will have LTE support. No information about NFC.
Sent from my HD2 using XDA App
Yeah we get LTE + NFC for korean market but it sucks when you leave the country and realize it's not gonna work

James,
Why does it not work when you leave the country?
Also, do you know if the LTE+NFC version does everything the non-LTE version does (eg HSPA+)?
I'm thinking of just ordering one in from S Korea if it does....
I too want to know: HSPA+ AND LTE or is it one or the other but not both?
Thanks,
Any further update on LTE now that there has actually been some delivery ?
Is there a S Korean ship date for the LTE version?
Yes, very good question! I have been following this release closely the last couple of days, but no words on this issue!
It's really strange, as this is the one real deal breaker for me. No way I am going to buy this device without LTE.
But don't you guys think that they are releasing this in the beginning of next year when first movers have bought this and the fuzz about the product stops? I guess so, unfortunately. It's basically the same story with Galaxy S II / LTE version.

Mate 7 for European countries

Hello everyone
I have a question about lte band of Chinese version
On Huawei website, we can see that the mate 7 support FDD LTE band 1/2/3/4/5/7/8/20/28. Todays, we can find the Chinese version for sell "limited" to bands 1,3,7.
But what I don't understand if the Chinese version got all band if you use it in another country or does it need a firmware mod to activate the other bands?
I need band 3,7 and 20... Can I buy a Chinese one or not? (2gig/16 would be good)
Thanks
This has been answer in our Q&A thread. Please take a look at recent discussion on this topic.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/general/wait-compatible-ascend-mate-7-buy-t2899404
Forum member from Switzerland has reported that the Chinese TL10 works flawlessly and we will hear more news from EU user next week.:fingers-crossed:
And we highly recommend 3 GB RAM, or the premium version. You will notice significant difference when opening multiple APPS.
We will post a root instruction for xda community early next week so that it will be a more fun machine to have.

Hello!
I just came back from a trip to China. Bought my Mate 7 in Shanghai. Its the MT7-UL00 Version.
At the shop they told me it should work in Switzerland. They even installed the Play Store for me (good service).
At the Stop Over in Dubai I had no LTE. So I was a little worried. Now in Switzerland it looks like I have same LTE coverage like I had bevor with my LG G3.
Hope this helps you.

MT7-TL10 Chinese -> European
I just got af Gold Mate 7 (3 bg/32 rom) from China - MT7-TL10.
Its a Chinese version, with Chines text i a few palces (even i chosed Denmark for language) but its also without google or anything - and im living in Europe.
So my question is, how do I get the international version af the software on this phone so I can use it like a normal phone here in Europe?
I would be really thankfull for any help and guidance regarding this issue.
Thank you!
Yep i dreaming of my futur AM7 but for no problem at all like the guaranty, i prefer wait till the european version launch officially. i'm so disappointed the gold version will not sold in europe, oh well the grey/black model will be fine too ^^

I bought the Gold TL10 version from ebay and had the international rom flashed on it. Works fine although i only get 3g hspa with tmobile (which is still pretty fast).
I want to unlock the 4g lte though like the TL09 versions so i cud see how fast the cat6 realli is. Regardless though, this phone is pretty fast to even be in 3g mode.
Can you buy the 3gb ram version from amazon fr?
Also how does warranty work on amazon fr? I live in the uk.

It's amazon so warranty usually good if you buy from them. 3gb ram 2gb of ram wont matter much with the Chipset they are using. Feel confident that 2gb will be enough after all the video tests I have seen on YouTube. The 3gb is only the Chinese model which I would not purchase. Get the European model much safer bet.

You should inquiry before purchasing. The CL00 version, aka China TeleCom version, only recognizes their specific SIM, otherwise, locked at GSM only. Choose a reputable seller in the future.

Yeah I got this as a little gimmick to play with., but it certainly is a disappointment.
Do you think the CL00 version can be loaded with TL10 firmware? I can see CL00 and TL10 differ dramatically in the network and data connectivity support, and TL10 is what I need.

No. There is no way to unlock the SIM and flashing TL10 ROM will not work either. In addition, CL00 uses an additional chip for CDMA2000, which consumes more batteries (only 2/3 of battery life vs. other versions, stated by HUAWEI's website). If you consider TL10, we have Gold color version in stock.
We cannot help you on this version any more.
Good luck!

HTC One M9+ Owners

Hey guys,
I've been using my M9+ for quite a while now and its incredible, I have been using the CleanSlate Rom and its kernel. The picture quality is amazing and the 2k screen is beyond beautiful. The fingerprint scanner is very responsive. I am from the UK and its working perfectly for me here. The lady in the HTC Chat told me it wouldn't work here and no point buying it. But I knew it would work as the bands are mostly the same as the M9 and is covered by the networks in the UK.
Do you have the M9+?
If you don't have it will you be getting it?
Where do you live?
Whats your view of the phone?
Looking forward to your replies
HTC One M9+
I'm from India and I have been using M9+ for about a month now. Its not rooted (yet). Its an incredible device but one glitch I have noticed is that the camera app doent load sometimes. I'm running Android 5.0.2 with Sense 7.0. Also the device tends to heat quite a bit on moderate usage. Other than that it's a beast!
Do you have the M9+? - Yes
Where do you live? - Hungary/European Union
Whats your view of the phone?
- I'm pleased with the experience, I was turned down by the Camera reviews on the net, but I gotta tell, on the long run, I got used to how it works, and while I might have to take 2 pics instead of one because of the focus capabilities and lack of OIS, BUT those images that goes well are Superb.
- The heating is like it is supposed to be on a metal chassis
- Battery life is like average high end phones, I wish it was like on Sony's, but nothing worse than it was on my previous phone (OPO)
- I could live with a little bit less bazel because of the look of the phone, but the screen is gorgeous!!
- The price is a bit over the edge (especially if you have to pay import + VAT in EU from China like i had to, bah), but hopefully it will get cheaper, and more people can get this
Also as a developer, I'm pleased that HTC released the kernel sources relatively fast. Developing AOSP like ROMs for this phone is tho' a big no, MTK + HTC is double pain in the ass, so for now I'm skipping developing AOSP based device tree for it.
Do you have the M9+?
-- Yes
If you don't have it will you be getting it?
Where do you live?
-- Shanghai, China / Taiwan
Whats your view of the phone?
-- This is a pretty nice phone overall, and I love it, especially after breaking the chains and bondage the original China version laid. Thanks to @tbalden again!!
-- The Duo Camera could have been smoother though.
Do you have the M9+? YES, MY SISTER GOT IT FOR ME FROM ABU DHABI
If you don't have it will you be getting it? N/A
Where do you live? UK
Whats your view of the phone? VERY GOOD, WORTH WAITING FOR AS I UPGRADED FROM THE ONE M7
Do you have the M9+?
Yes, Bought it from HK as my M8 had a mishap.
If you don't have it will you be getting it?
N/A
Where do you live?
Sydney, Australia
Whats your view of the phone?
Nice phone. I have had it about 3 weeks, running CleanSlate Rom still getting used to M9+ compared to M8. Only real complaint so far with the phone design is the position of the power button - not to touch the button and turn on the screen. unnecessarily. Managing the battery life is continuous problem.
HI guys, just a quick question for those in UK - does the 4G work on Vodaphone & EE?
Thank you

I got this from a seller
Hello. this item doesn't supporting LTE 800MHz, can't work on Vodafone LTE network. only work on EE LTE. and remind you SIM 2 slot only supporting 2G network
so you can use the SIM slot 1 for the EE LTE network. and the SIM slot for the Vodafone 2G network
Allan

You mention the the device was E9+ (E9pw),not M9+ (M9pw).
If you want dual SIM devices, choose E9+ or ME (M9ew).
hahaa...... So many devices confused your users , hTC ........

I said E9+ because that what a seller in UK has, but he says it WILL not work on 4G in UK not seen any M9 E's for sale here - is it the same as the + or is it missing things (I ask because the + is missing) :/
EDIT:
Fpound one in Germany but it says:
Network Technology LTE
Band GSM 800/900/1800/1900 (Quadband) CDMA 800/1900 UMTS 850/1900/2100 LTE 1900
Vodaphone uses LTE 800Mhz so it wont work either :/
These phone companies REALLY need to get their acts together and simplify things for the markets, we are a global market now, the country divides are useless
Thanks for the input guys
UPDATE:
I bought the E9+
works great on EE 4G so I am happy
I saw a post on here somewhere about a dial in code #? to unlock 4G on SIM 2 but I cannot bloody find it :/
Do you have the M9+? Yes
Where do you live? Adelaide, Australia
Whats your view of the phone? It's sexy and love it expect the camera and battery life otherwise everything great.
hi guys, this is my first post so go easy. I'm wanting to buy the m9+ though im not sure if the 4g/the phone in general will work on o2 in the uk? can anyone clarify this for me? o2 use 800mhz as their band and i dont think the m9+ works with this.
however according to willmyphonework dot net when i select the m9+ it says it will work?
finally there are seemingly two m9+ models listed on there, the m9pw and the m9pt- will either of them work or should i just give up trying to get this?
cheers in advance!
