If I were to get a XT Sensation and was roaming in the US on T-Mobile's network which they say is now 4G, would I even be able to 3G on it? I was able to get 3G data using a Nexus One.
T-Mobile's 3G apparently uses these frequencies according to Wikipedia
The company owns licenses to operate a 1900 MHz GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) PCS (Personal Communications Service) digital cellular network and a 1700 MHz/2100 MHz UMTS AWS (Advanced Wireless Services) digital cellular network that cover areas of the continental U.S., Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. It provides coverage in areas in which it does not own radio frequency spectrum licenses via roaming agreements with other operators of compatible networks.
I am guessing my N1 worked okay because it was doing AWS at 2100.
So would the XT Sensation also work okay because it does 850/1700?
Otherwise I guess I would either use AT&T (rather not) or take along my N1.
Thanks
[EDIT]
Just answering my own question. Looks like it might not work since the XT version might be the one for Bell Canada according to GSMArena
