I bought the Unbranded 925 Grey & after a while it seems dull. I'm missing my yellow NL920 which my wife now has. :(

Thanks O'Hardy, if yours is the same one as Negri is selling it's fully compatible with T-Mobile. Can you tell us what the product code is?

Yeah, personally, if I were to get a 925, I'd get the white for sure. I have a black 920, but yellow was the one I really had my heart set on.

What about this version "for international use only"? Nokia Lumia 925 (T-Mobile) (Unlocked) (White/Silver) Is it somehow blocked from functioning on Tmobile USA or is that just a warning required by law with a wink-wink to the buyer?

I have a feeling metalchick asked that question to Negri some time ago and the answer was that the phone was intended for T-Mobile Germany and not the US. I would like to see if metalchick weighs in on that and if I remember correctly.

What I do see is that the phone you linked to has WCDMA for it's 3G bands whereas the one I've linked to is mentioning HSDPA. Apparently HSDPA is an upgrade of WCDMA. I cannot say if that is significantly relevant to the question about if the phone is usable here in the US. If metalchick or someone else doesn't weigh in with a conclusive answer you may want to put that question to Negri. If you do, please post the response.

The bands match perfectly to Tmobile USA. Negri gave me some answer about it not being legal to sell unlocked phones because of new law???

Yes, I indeed asked the rep named Ted about it and he said it's the T-Mobile Germany version. What I don't get is why they list all the T-Mo US bands as being on it, though. :-/

Right, I'm aware of the band differences and the fact that Negri lists the bottom ones alongside the "T-Mobile" Lumia 925. The question is whether or not they got the bands right. They might have made an error if it isn't the US version is my point.

But I have to ask - do you have this 925 that Negri is selling? Are you using it on T-Mobile US?

I am looking to buy one, and $449 is a great price.

Has anyone asked which variant of the L925 Negri is selling? There are three versions RM-892 (international version), RM-893 (T-Mobile USA, ATT), and RM-910, which appears to be a Chinese (non-LTE capable) version although it lists AWS 1700 as a supported band.

I've not asked that question. I am going to assume that the v2 is not any of the prior known versions.

sorry guys, no code for us.

they said the company is based in vegas, and the phones are located at a warehouse in florida.

since they cannot physically inspect a device, they cannot supply me with a product code.



looks like we have to wait for someone to take the plunge and post up the code for us :(

The one I'd worry about is the "T-Mobile" 925 since Negri's rep Ted indeed told me it's the German version. It seems like this 925.2 one would work like a charm on T-Mobile here in the US.

yea, I really like the idea of getting one of the 925.2 versions. No exterior branding, and from what I am getting as the implication, one can potentially flash it with a different version of the OS. So, if I found that I really missed having the wireless calling, I could flash the phone with the T-Mobile firmware for the 925. Not that I know how to do that at this point...

Now if only they came out with a 32gb version, then I would be super happy.....

i told them the guys over at the wpcentral forum would very much appreciate the product code info.

they asked me how to locate it

perhaps they'll just have someone at the warehouse take a look. fingers crossed
