How Well Does the 930 run on AT&T's Network?

[richv77]

Is anyone running their Unlocked 930 on AT&T's network? I realize there is no LTE band for AT&T.
Does this make such a big difference?
​
It's a shame there is no AT&T version. The 830 is nice but I would prefer a faster CPU and more RAM - future proofing.

Thanks for you comments.

I've been using my new unlocked 930 with AT&T at work for four days now. No issues. Right now in the downtown area I'm at 5 bars of H+. At home in an urban neighborhood I've seen 3 to 5 and H or H+. Along I-5 that I drive daily for offsite work, I've talked the entire length of my 30 mile trip without a call dropping a couple of times. So, I've had no issues at all with service on AT&T. I've read that some 930 US users have trouble with internet sharing on AT&T but I'm using it right now and have not had any issues at all and did not have to contact AT&T to get it working.

I used the L930 on AT&T for a couple of weeks before I returned it.
No problems at all. Everything (other than LTE) worked fine, Internet Sharing, MMS, etc.

In my opinion all the other benefits of the 930 far outweigh the fact that there's no 4G. I have the 930 and I'm using it with AT&T. No problems at all. H+ can seem a little bit slow sometimes, but I've found that I'm able to get better reception for texts and calls than I did with my 1520. I think this is because lower gigahertz network speeds have better wall penetration and vice versa with higher gigahertz.

Everything works great. There is no special setup needed - pop in the sim, turn it on, and you're ready to roll.

I too usually have H+ speeds.

The phone is awesome, and works just fine on AT&T (no LTE as you know).
