you are a genius!
I bought the RFH121LW from a random eBayer..
Just drove to Connecticut (about an hour away from my house)
to the GSMNation / Solavei warehouse and purchased a model #: RFF91LW for $1k
really nice people over there they actually gave me a $80 discount because of how far i traveled, and now i got my new bb10 working perfectly with 4G!!!!!!.
I will be returning the eBay seller, however I don't think it was my fault.
He should have stated in the description what model the BB10 was.
Hope this thread helps everyone out. before buying an unlocked z10 please know that there are DIFFERENT models!!
I had no freaking idea.
and to the person that I quoting.. this quote is what I should have read before I bought any z10..
now i literally have 6 Z10's I gotta return 5 to eBay, and re-order another 5 from these Solavei guys.02-13-13 08:22 PMLike 2 -

I got a Model #: RFH121LW from eBay, which doesn't support T-Mobile unless you enjoy EDGE speeds.
I went out and purcahsed a model RFF91LW, and is now working perfectly with T-Mobile..
well.. WAS working.. I don't know what I did but read my other thread I made:

... Depending on the device you get, you may or may not be able to access T-Mobile's "4G" WCDMA (3G / HSDPA / HSUPA) network if it's not available through both PCS and AWS yet. T-Mobile is refarming its network to provide 3G / 4G access on PCS frequencies throughout its footprint (taking spectrum availability into consideration).02-13-13 09:37 PMLike 0 - i am not too sure what that means, so will the RFF91LW also work with the 1700/2100 AWS from tmobile? or only the 1900?02-13-13 09:45 PMLike 0
- This is why I am waiting to see if Sprint will get the Z10 or not, they told me directly (by chat) that they do not support phones they don't sell. If they do not get the Z10 I will take my talented Z10 to some other network, still not sure who it will be, will have to test the waters and see what I can get.
I will not be locked into a contract though, gonna buy the phone outright.
Posted using CrackBerry App on BB1002-13-13 09:45 PMLike 0 - If the model specifications up-thread are correct, then RFF91LW *will* work using PCS 1900 using T-Mobile "3G / 4G" but *only* wherever the network has been refarmed for T-Mobile's WCDMA / 3G / 4G using PCS 1900 spectrum. It will not work on AWS.02-13-13 10:04 PMLike 0
- but how about those reports of the 91 version working on wind's hspa network? thats whats really baffling me
