Is there LTE network in Europe?

[Alain_A]

I got a question for the European

Do you guys have LTE network over there?

I bought an unlocked version of Lumia 830 from Amazon and the highest connection I have is 4G. Actually I have the choice between 2-3 and 4G

I wish the phone would show what band it has inside like the Blackberry does

Well that's cos there is no 4G signal in your area or it is so bad that your phone switches to h+ .

I have mine set to 3G, 4G drains battery too fast.

How about you end the guessing games...

Settings > extras + info > Manufacturer's Name

What does it say? That way we will know which variant you have.

An Unlocked from ATT or a Factory Unlocked Latin American would work on Telus LTE Band 4.

RM-984_1000 for manufacturer..Although I have a Telus sim card in it it shows mobile operator as 000_HK

Re: I got a question for the European

Sorry then, it won't get LTE on Telus. You needed the RM-985 like this one Nokia Lumia 830 RM-985 16GB Smartphone A00021287 B&H Photo Video

You got the Euro tuned SoC with incompatible LTE Bands.
