Lumia 930 on AT&T

[DrNitun]

Hello,

Can the Lumia 930 run on AT&T "fully"? Or will the Lumia 930 not run on LTE speeds??

Thanks,

Hello,

Woops sorry! After searching in the forums, looks like it does indeed.

It does NOT run LTE on AT&T

Likwidz,

Oh dear. Can I just flash the rom to a different country variant then??

 

[DrNitun]

....or a proper APN setting?

Wrong bands! i.e. hardware incompatibility.

I used my 930 in the US a few months ago on AT&T and the best you can get is H+.

Correct no LTE, but H+ is no slouch.

I used it on AT&T for a month and it was horrendous. Connection constantly dropping, text and media messages always failing to go through. I ended up selling it because it was so unreliable

I've been using it on AT&T for a few months now and no problems here in the bay area

Likwidz,

Using LTE on AT&T??

 

[Likwidz]

No LTE, but H+ works fine

I own one and its on AT&T and can say it works perfectly without LTE. Like you I was hesitant about it because I want fast speeds but its more than sufficient enough for me. I average around 8 down which I'm happy with. Only gripe I have is I'm a music junkie and have only about 2gb of space left.

Hello,

Thanks for all the input!

H+ vs. LTE speeds....is it really THAT big of a difference??

Seeing how we are in April, might as well just wait it out for a few more months for a Win 10 phone don't you think?

I have been using 930 for about six months now, on AT&T, with H+ obviously; no problems at all. I feel the speeds are enough for casual browsing. Haven't really tried streaming and heavy data tasks since I am near WiFi almost all the time. But, I would say, it will depend on your personal usage. If you solely depend on your data plan for your daily usage, then getting an LTE device would be better. However, if you use it only while traveling for, say, basic email/browsing/navigation tasks, then H+ is enough.
