Sgh-i717 question!

[skarface1988]

Ok im planing to get the note i717 from amazon as unlocked, brand new.

Im looking at the frequencies band
::us 4g LTE: HSDPA 850/1900/2100, LTE MHz class.

since in my area already had refarmed, and i have 1900 MHz band.

Does that mean ill get LTE connection?

please help in advance. Thanks!

The bands it lists there are for HSPA, not LTE. So if you're area is refarmed, you will get HSPA. I don't know what this device has for LTE frequency bands, but I believe it does support T-Mobile's LTE which is 1700/2100 (band 4). How to enable it though is something I don't know off hand though.

It supports T-Mobile 1900hspa, AWS hspa with a mod, and LTE with no mods.

I already figure everything out, my LTE works on stock ICS and stock JB , unless I go to 4.2+ jb than I have to switch the modem.
