Thanks, the reason i was asking is because i also bought the HK version N910U and on here it states it does do TDD LTE but unfortunately i had to find out whilst back in Shanghai that it doesn't have TD but only FD. Otherwise i love the phone but i need to have 4G so am looking to buy another one.
BTW It costs you nothing to get the 4G card at China Mobile just bring your passport and sign a few docs

well..the problem i'm using china unicom in here.. i'm getting the 4G package too starting next month, and next year i'm going back to my country..so i don't need to change my number
maybe u can ask about the N9108W version, it said that have both LTE..but cross finger bout that..chinese version is complicated..
but i suggest u keep the N910U one..because it's exynos..and i prefer exynos than snapdragon..
and when i see chinese forum, they said if u buy snapdragon one..u can use TD LTE but u can't use FD LTE..so keep in mind about that..

you dont answer my question. some chinese say me unicom and n910u work
FDD LTE and TD LTE
Unicom supports both TD and FDD LTE (hybrid 4G). I bought my Note 4 in HK and it is working fine in China 4G on Unicom.
You can check with Unicom which cities have 4G already, Shanghai definitely has.
So if you have China Mobile you will need a different phone, or buy an IPhone which supports both FDD and TD.

If u buy the hongkong one then u should get traditional chinese in keyboard, or u can go to settings and language input to add mandarin in there, but u only can choose 1 type input mandarin..either with pinyin or stroke..for me i'm using google pinyin input for chinese and english
We have been on road for the past week and there are many questions/confusions about the AM7 models.
Here it is a stigmatization. Hope this helps.

So the European MT7-TL10 and MT7-L09 would work here in the states with t-mobile on band 4? How would I go about ordering the European market versions.

Reading from the specs, It should work in NA, with B4 aka AWS. It costs if you order from Europe though.
The problem with the USA market is that, HUAWEI may have to use a different CPU inside, happened on Mate 2. That's due to the USA's federal regulation. It may explain why there is no release date for the USA market.
We will experiment if the current Chinese MT7-TL10 can flash the international ROM. Once again, we have no clue even about the release date of the international MT7-TL10.
By the way, we sold an unit to a HUAWEI employee from an European country. According to our customer and also a HUAWEI employee there, there will be no release of the MT7-TL10 in that specific country, at least. For confidentiality, we cannot tell you which country it is.
So as @nvygw171 said, the European L09 and TL10 would be useful for USA T-Mobile LTE. That's what I'm gathering from those specs.

Yes. It offers B4 aka AWS specifically for NA. So you can purchase an European version and use it in USA.
This week, we will check with HUAWEI to see if we can exclusively get L09 version and bring it to the xda community. No guaranty though.

Here is the latest news from HUAWEI:
HUAWEI makes more profits in the Europe market and in this week they will not fulfill any order in China (good for HUAWEI as the heat is continuously stored: demand in the Chinese market is even higher). Initial production is in process for the Europe market. The quantity is limited as well (the production of finger print scanner is very limited). If one places an order for a while now, more than likely in the next 2-3 weeks you will get a shipment of the L09 version.
We will hear soon if our store can get any Europe version.. We hope to get some. Will report back once HUAWEI girl gives us a call.

So, the entire point of your "testing" was that you are completely clueless as to what works in the US.
Excellent. Thanks for the non-information.
Getmobilephoe,
I understand that you suspect that hardware of the Chinese and the European TL-10 is identical.
Can you confirm that now?

Even HUAWEI USA cannot give a clear answer. Though trusted reviewers from tech blog/community reported the phone can receive LTE in USA, we believe we are the first one notifying that there are compatibility issues. Meanwhile, we are doing our best to provide the community useful and accurate information.
And thanks your criticism and we will continuously improve, providing only reliable information.

We cannot confirm that now, as we have mentioned in many other posts, our speculation only. We have already inquired local HUAWEI factory about the availability of EU version and we shall receive an answer soon in the next 2-3 days. Meanwhile, one HUAWEI employee from an EU country told us that there will be no release of TL10 in that specific country. HUAWEI better to label it as limited edition. We really do not like their business practice this time but that's a good start for their company's long term development.
We will keep the community updated about the latest development.

Just get the response from our HUAWEI connection. First and not surprisingly though, HUAWEI cannot provide us the EU version. Of course, their supply of China version irritates us these days, though we sill get better supply than most of the vendors in the country. Second, which is interesting to the community, the first dispatch of shipment to EU is this week. We have no words about how many units they are initially offering to EU market. If you are living in the western part of Europe (the priority of HUAWEI), and an order has been pre-paid, you shall get your unit soon, depending on the queue though.
The EU version is made in HUAWEI Guangdong factory and the daily production is about 30k units per day, according to our source. Yep, a limited edition.
The only issue is that i wrote to Huawei Belgiulm abou the availability of the 32gb version and their answer was the following :
Sorry sir, Huawei WILL NOT release the 32 gb version in Europe I am actually using the 32gb version from China but slight problem, it works on 4G in Belgium with Proximus BUT NOT IN GERMANY with Vodafone 4G as they are using and LTE band not supported by the chinese version. Although Huawei mate 7 is an amazing mobile, Huawei marketing and strategy was the most stupid one i ve ever seen While Iphone and Samsung released their device, Huawei, who should have released their Mate 7 before, not only was late releasing it and awful about transparency regarding the versions and the bands these onese are supporting. I really don't understand this strategy from Chinese brands, Lenovo K920 is exactly the same. No stock ! Really strange from companies who want to get market share from Apple and Samsung This is really a shame ...
HEre is the exchange between me and them
Dear Sir,
Could you tell me when will the Huawei mate 7 32GB be available in Europe ?
We already find them in chinese websites, can we also order them from there, devices are exactly the same ?

Hi
This was an awful idea : to compete in the high end devices, Huawei should have released this 32Gb, 3gb ram version in EU and for your information, huawei online mobile shop sell and ship these devices to Europe. From a strategic marketing point of view, it was a mistake no to be consistent to such an extent. European market is dominated by Apple and Samsung as you know, how Huawei wants to penetrate it without releasing their most powerfull device in these markets were the actually need to penetrate ?
This was just my opinion ... Thanks.
ROTFLAMO, this was my exact reaction to their absolutely pisspoor performance in any market. I read an article yesterday touting that they had sold 1million phones in the first month. They have ZERO deals with any carriers, they ZERO presence in any country, and they're proud they sold 1 million phones? I mean seriously, what a joke. They're just simply pathetic in terms of being a manufacturer. They don't seem at all bothered that they answer questions asked in contradictory ways. I asked if the device was coming to the US Ina T-Mobile-compatible version. First answer, it will be released in the US. Second time the same question was asked by someone else, the device will not be released in US.
The press need to take a LOT of responsibility in this as well. I was the first one to ask Huawei if the phone was compatible with T-Mobile in the US. Not a single American reviewer asked that question. They all walked away with free devices in Germany, but no one quoted more than the press briefing. The press, seriously, were a joke in this.
Huawei may well be #3 in the world. But, after this "release", I don't see them rising beyond that.
Huawei, at least hire someone who can answer questions of those who ask them in better than broken Engrish. It's embarrassing for a multinational company to have no one who can answer a question in proper sentences.
They're not ready to compete because they're playing in the backwater.
I am in the philippines, and i was initially eyeing this phone. I wrote huawei phils. and i was told that the device will be release last wk of oct to 1st wk of nov. Naturally, as the date neared, i followed it up with them. Alas, they said they could no longer give a time frame.
I love how this device looks, but how can i buy it when its not available in my country? The online stores priced this ridiculously, and i am not even sure about lte compatibility.
I ended up getting the vibe z2 pro! Amazing device!
1. The phone is out of stock in Shanghai, Beijing. Think about it. Many stores are selling at over $700 USD and it is still OOS.
2. HUAWEI is shipping x units to Europe in the past week, sacrificing the Chinese market at the moment.
3. HUAWEI is a giant Chinese company therefore a political issue. Period.
We cannot help NA consumers for AWS reason but our customers from Asia and Europe say NO compatibility issue and love it. If you are an EU based consumer who has placed an order with HUAWEI already, please be patient and you will get the phone no later than Mid November, or, come to our store who can fulfill your needs immediately.
I was over at Taiwan Mobile and the employee at Taiwan Mobile showed me their LTE Bands for the new S6Edge and for the new HTC ONE M9. The coverage on the HTC ONE M9 is pretty shabby compared to the LTE BANDS offered on the new Galaxy S6. I was impressed with the number of bands that they offered.
LTE FDD Bands covered are 01,02,03,04,05,07,08,12,17,18,19,20,25,26,28
LTE TDD Bands covered are 38,39,40,41
Pretty much if you travel between America and Asia you are well covered with 4G LTE speeds

Can any one find a way to make PLK-UL00 suppout more 4g band?

Thanks a lot
Where did you buy it ? And how long has it been since you have that issue ? I live in France as well, and I have 4G (with Free). But there is an issue with Free for the last 3 days so it may be Free-related and not H7-related.

According to all accessible information Free Mobile operates only on LTE 2.6GHz. And PLK-UL00 doesn't support 2.6GHz, it works in Europe only on 1.8GHz.
It seems that this phone supports only Bouygues LTE in France and even that partially.

On GSM Arena they have an EU version and a NA version. Is that for the dual sim or do they sell different versions depending where you live?

They sell different versions depending on where you live depending on if you bought it directly from OnePlus themselves. The reason they do this is mainly different data bands for different countries/regions. Probably other things taken into account software wise to abide by certain countries laws as well. If you can't get the phone directly through OnePlus because of the whole out of stock nonsense then do your research and figure out which model number you need to find for your area.

difference is network bands for example you live in the usa you will never get 5g with the china or europe version.
