Heatmiser 0 #3 November 25, 2013 Verizon's 4g network is cdma/lte/evdo, definitely not an expert, maybe that helps. What you say is reflective of your knowledge...HOW ya say it is reflective of your experience. Airtwardo Someone's going to be spanked! Hopefully, it will be me.

labrys 0 #7 November 25, 2013 Quotedoes anyone know if it will work with your carriers there? specifically AT&T? Your current provider should know. Also, just knowing the model number of your phone can tell you if it probably won't (dual band), might (tri band) or probably will (quad band or more) You can look at the tech specs of your phone to see that info and what frequencies your phone will work on.Owned by Remi #?

I didn't realize that anyone would find the idea of simply looking at the tech specs for their phone "so intensive and unproductive". It takes about 30 seconds. At what point do you consider something like that so hard to do that you just throw money at it? Owned by Remi #? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
