I've been here awhile

I'm about to purchase an unlocked AT&T phone with the following frequency band:

  • 2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
  • 3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
  • 4G Network LTE 700 MHz Class 17 / 1700 / 2100

I read that Rogers network band are:

  • 2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
  • 3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
  • 4G Network LTE 1700 / 2100 / 2600

 

Will my unlocked AT&T phone have 3G and 4G on Rogers' network?

 

Thanks

I have a S5 Prime too, on SKT. I have to go to the hidden menu to change the LTE band in order to get it to work...

I just imported a car from europe and it came with a motorola international 1000, I found that if works on GSM 900MHz; I tried my SIM in it with a card size adaptor but it doesn't get any signal; do I have to use an older 5V SIM card to make it work?

 

It would be great to have it functional

Re: Rogers Frequencies

Good evening @sayvari ,

 

Thank you for your post and Welcome to the forums!

 

The wireless spectrum is the airwave used to carry wireless signals.

In North America there are three bands of spectrum: 850 MHz, 1900 MHz, and 1700 MHz uplink/2100 MHz downlink.

 

The preferred spectrum for wireless is 850 MHz because it provides superior in-building coverage and wider geographic coverage.We’re the only wireless provider with 850 MHz spectrum in every major market in Canada.

 

We also have 1900 MHz spectrum nationally and it provides more capacity for higher internet speeds.

This means our customers have wireless service running on the best spectrum and that result in fewer dropped calls, better internet access and more stable internet speeds.

 

Technically, the device you are looking to purchase should be functional on the Rogers network. 

Keep in mind that you might not have access to our LTE network and that we can unfortunately not guarantee the functionality/compatibility of a non-Rogers device.

 

Hope this helps!

Hi i don't know where else to post this question I was wondering if you know the answer to my question. I bought a Bell Note 4 and unlocked it to use with Rogers but whenever I make calls it automatically switches to H+, do you know why that is? Is it because Bell uses WCDMA? I've no problem with browsing at all, just making calls it keeps switching and there's no option to switch. Any help would be grateful! Thanks.

Hello 02ngzara

This happens with all devices. If lets say your device shows LTE & you receive or make a call, it will automaticly bring it down to lets say 4G or H+ ( they are both the same thing to be honest). This happens on EVERY single phone. There is no option to switch this.

Re: Rogers Frequencies

02ngzara

Interesting because the Rogers one that was broken never went down to H+. Thank's for answering my question, Meowmix.

Re: Rogers Frequencies

Hello 02ngrara

That is because it would show "4G " instead. 4G and H+ are the same thing but just diffrent wording.


You are welcome 🙂
