Lumia 1520 versions difference

[RumoredNow]

Sorry, dude. I don't have a phone that allows Field Test, ATM. The link I dropped above should be the way.

Try ##3282# from the dialer > settings > network type > 3G only

This is field test mode and it works on my AT&T 1520.

Would the RM-937 be a bad choice for the US market?

RM-937

Zero LTE. Not just the wrong LTE for the US, but no LTE period.

AT&T or AT&T mvno and it is fine. It is missing the 1700 MHz band on 3G to get T-Mo H+ in all areas...

Other than that; it's still the BeastPhone[SUP]TM[/SUP].

Is the RM-937 known as Lumia 1520.1?

Edit: My research is showing that the RM-937 is the 1520.1. I would like someone to confirm please.
@RumoredNow, Are the US LTE bands physically excluded from the RM-937 or deactivated via software?

I'm afraid I don't have that answer...

Someone with an RM-937 would be able to answer that if they can access Field Test Menu.

I'll ask someone who knows cross flashing ROMs to look at your question.

Hi scionluna,

Historically, non-US Lumias do not have the LTE bands to work with N & S American carriers. Unless someone with a RM-937 is willing to flash theirs with the RM-938 and check bands using field test nothing can be said. Although, the RM-938 variant conversely doesn't support international LTE bands.

It is not by countering technical arguments that I am unaware of, but the truth is that I have the RM-940 version or 1520-2 Lumia 1520 in use currently in Argentina and it works perfectly in 4 G

Gracias.
