Can the network bands be changed on the win hd lte 150q?

[Juan Vasquez4]

Hi. i have the win hd lte 150q and this one have network bands for 3G (HSDPA 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100) and 4G (LTE band 4(1700/2100), 7(2600), 17(700)
but the problem is that i need (900Mhz) for 3G and (Band 3 1800 Mhz) for 4G
is there a way to change the bands i have on my 150Q for those i need?

Straight and honest answer: NO

Straight and honest answer: NO

so, change the firmware to the europe version (150e) do not change also the bands? because the europe version does have the bands i need

The bands are related to the hardware nor the firmware, sorry bro

You can try flashing the 150e firmware and see if it works. You can always easily switch back .

Cross Flashing on Win HD LTE does not work. It only results in a phone stuck in airplane mode.

Moviestar looks good down that way for compatibility if they have good coverage in your area.

yeah with movistar i can have 3g/4g but they are always having problems with conections for data/calls/sms. Digitel is more estable. but not 3g on win hd lte :c
im thiking on maybe use sim1 with Digitel for calls/sms and movistar on sim2 for data only. need to check if i can have data on movistar without contract a call service

Dual SIM to the rescue!!!

I hope it works out. Be sure to let us know.

Pretty sure that the SIM1 is the only SIM slot for Data...so you'd have to have SIM1 for Movistar and SIM2 for Digitel. No matter, you just pin the tiles for SIM2 for calls.

Should be selectable in the SIM settings if I remember correctly. Two switches, one for each SIM, that read "Use this Sim for Data." Only one can be active at a time, so switching on data for Slot 2 shuts it off for Slot 1 (although it still gets 2G data for SMS and MMS).

It's not different from other Windows Phones, is it?

4 g works in either one of the sim card slots and the other sim slot stays in 2g only . The slots are interchangeable.
