Is the D850 and D851 the only versions that are LTE supported in the US?

I placed an order for a G3 but turned out to be a D855P so I cancelled it. Its my understanding that the 855 does not contain the 1700 freq required for ATT LTE. The seller claimed that this was the D855p which does contain the freq though. But I cant find anything on the p version that isn't written in Spanish.

Any specific reason you wanted the 855? I have the tmobile 851 unlocked, rooted, with custom rom and debloated on ATT network after sim unlock. I love it. It is a beast son.

No I don't want the 855. I went through the net10 phone partner and the phone was 499. Then found out after hitting purchase it was a D855P. The 855 phone sells for 459 on Amazon but I avoided it due to lack of LTE. Cancelled the phone but they claimed the 855p contained 700/AWS(1700/2100) lte bands. So not sure if that is true or not. All the other unlocked g3 phones I see not on ebay are in the 580 range. Would prefer the D850/1 model that I can use with ATT through Net10.

Why not on ebay? Got mine from there brand new with a wireless charging circle case for 500. I do not use the circle case if anyone is interested.

Check swappa. Here's one mint cond for 450. Comes with 2 cases, glass screen protector.

How hard was it to get an 851 to work on ATT? I found an unlocked 850 for 471. May go with that one.

Don't get the 850. It doesn't support qi wireless charging and it doesn't have the unlocked bootloader. Get the 851. It takes all of 10 minutes to be working on att with lte. I will help you get it going.

I cant root my phone since its used of work. Si if I need to root for bootloader that doesn't interest me. My current phone has wireless charging and never used it so that's not a big deal to me.

Hmm. Now I see mention that the d855p is the Mexican/US version of the phone so maybe it does support 1700/2100

Wasn't that the rumored nexus 6 code name when they thought they would choose LG?
