[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] 3vilhomer:
so does the C6833 or C6806 works with t-zone $5.99 and get LTE??
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Vanquiz:
So if I'm on T Mobile in US, not planning to go internatonal or switch to AT&T, is there any advantage getting C6806 instead of C6833 if they're on the same price?

For LTE maybe the same, but what about some area that still havent covered by LTE.

Which one has better coverage, faster firmware update, etc, I think I saw C6806 has unlockable bootloader?

Thank you in advance.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Spectre51:
Any that isn't branded or sold through a carrier will be able to have the boot loader unlocked. The only benefit for the C6806 would be an easier time to sell it later if you wanted since it fully supports AT&T as well.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] justsomebody:
Sorry if reply is a little off-topic. I got mine second-hand, so that I don't exactly know the model number of it, whether if it is a C6802 or C6833. Is there any way to find out? I don't have the box with me.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Zaim2012:
Not sure if this has been answered, can anyone confirm if the model C6833 will work on 4G LTE in the UK ?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] JackHanAnLG:
Yes I bought the 4G lte model and I live in the UK

Works brilliantly. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kirdroid:
I bought the c6806 model from the Sony store and using it on tmobile. Could have bought the c6833 from amazon for cheaper, but decided to go for the c6806 since it will be easier to sell later because of att lte. I'm not the one who will keep the same phone for long so decided to buy the one which is easier to resell later.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Reuven007:
Very informative thread, just what I was looking for.

Quick question:

I understand that the C6833 work fine with T-Mobile's LTE in the US (which is what I need).

I do travel a lot out of the US and need to use local SIM cards in various countries. Is the Z Ultra C6833 the best version for International use?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Yup, the C6833 is the international version, so you'll get LTE wherever it's available (unless you end up in a weird place).
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] KeikiNYC011:
Everyone please read this

The C6833 is an international Unlocked model that will work for all carriers in all nations. The c6806 and c6802 are limited to where they do work. Check the Bands listed for the devices c6802 and C6806.

Now any XZU from the Google Play Store that is order is check where the purchaser is located and from warehouse is check in certificate to see a device is either program or are in stock to be send to that region country. Then again it was said the models c6802 and c6806 are north america units and C6833 is an international unit "switch I'm starting to see a pattern" also my C6833 works when im home in Japan, North America and The UK.

Im traveling at the moment and I can confirm with you all that the best model to buy us C6833. If you want to flash google play edition rom on to the device, that's on your risk due to the supported LTE bands current on the device with firmware. You may not have the supported LTE Bands after rooted yo Google Play Edition.

My unit came with an universal charger but I'd happen to order mine from Sony Store directly.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Reuven007:
After reading all the threads here and in other forums, I finally purchased the C6806 directly from Sony store. Here are the reasons and my assessment:

I live in the US and will be using either T-Mobile, AT&T or a MVNO with LTE service from one of them. That model (C6806) will work will all those carriers.

I also travel internationally about twice a year, each time for up to 2-3 weeks. This phone will work on large majority of LTE networks and if not, will work on their HSPA+. For this limited (3 to 6 weeks a year) use, I can live with that.

The international version - C6833 - would cover more LTE networks around the world, but not AT&T LTE in the US. That limits the options and usability for people like me. Those that travel substantially more or live big part of the year abroad, the C6833 may be more suitable, particularly if the C6806 will not be compatible with the LTE in the country they spend big chunk of the time. It is also cheaper than the C6806.

My suggestion to people that are pondering which model to buy is to use the same guidelines above that I used. Whichever phone you purchase, you will love it! It's a little big, even in comparison to the Galaxy Mega, but gives you so much more.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] KeikiNYC011:
Not correct, when I was in the states with model C6833 I'd used At&T as a provider and worked completely outstanding. What I did.notice.was Verizon coverage was HSPA+ and wasn't as good due to the service kept dropping in and out of LTE. So Yes C6833 does work for AT&T

---------- Post added at 05:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:46 PM ----------

Yes, it works just fine.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Reuven007:
The C6833 works fine on the AT&T HSPA+, but not the LTE. Please read all the comments in this thread about this issue, particularly the Original Poster:

C6833 Works on all networks INCLUDING 4G LTE for T-Mobile as this uses BAND 4

C6806 Works on all networks INCLUDING 4G LTE for T-Mobile and AT&T

C6802 Works on all networks EXCLUDING 4G LTE

Hope this clears up any confusion. The International version of the Xperia ZU will work on all networks that have 4G LTE as well EXCEPT AT&T'S, presumably because it does not have the supported band
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] KeikiNYC011:
Well I was only confirming my usage on my device and what I'd experience while using At&T and Verizon. it worked perfect for me on At&T. That's is my reply.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Paul in Maryland:
I created this table to help me and other North Americans quickly see how the C6833, C6806, and C6806 GPe differ in the bands they support. Bottom line: The two C6806 models will support ALL bands that T-Mobile and AT&T use today but will support NONE of the new bands that the two carriers are expected to deploy starting in 2015.

My table is opened to accept comments, so feel free to leave corrections.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Jammol:
Thank you for the table that comes in really handy. I wish there was a universal table for smartphones so you can type in the name of the phone and see what carriers it can work on. I hate the band frequency this and 2100 700 900 whatever. Lol, I have no clue how to tell what phone works with what until someone says it will or won't.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Purple_Clouded:
Sony xzu ftw!

Thanks for that very informative table!!! Hope everyone understands which version of the XZU to get now! It shouldn't be long before Sony unveils it's new line up and array of high end flagship smartphones that will one-up the competition this year!!! *Fingers crossed*

On another topic.. I think that Sony phones have a more settled and mature finish to them, in terms of weight/size/quality/accents and finish and so forth. I like many of the high end smartphones in today's market, a lot of which I own and have previously owned. But there's just something about Sony phones in general (high end part of the Sony phones) that strikes the eye.. Especially with that pesky protective screen shield they put on top of their Xperia Z/Z Ultra. I took that thing off the day I got it. It took 4 hours with breaks in between and a lot of patience with a razor blade, but I did it! Photos anybody? The Dragontrail glass looks AMAZING ad it's completely smooth to the touch. Yes, it is still completely waterproof and it doesn't scratch at all. Tried it with a box cutter, keys, coins, a needle, nada.

SONY XZU FTW!!!!

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] moneybooboo:
I'm in the US. What's the warranty coverage of the C6833 here if there's an issue with the phone? Will Sony US take care of it or you are SOL since it's the international version?

Also, is there planned update of C6833 to Android 5?

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Not sure on the warranty, I know I have none here in NZ as mine is a grey import.

yes the Z line (by the looks the whole line from Z3 down to the Z) will get L
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
C6802 and C6833 are imported devices in the US so no warranty unless a third-party plan is purchased.

C6806 comes with US warranty.

Android 5.0 Lollipop will be released for all Ultras even if GPe will get it first. Sony has confirmed the update for all of them.

My recommendation is to flash the GPe ROM (ported) when Lollipop is out and then add Sony apps separately rather than waiting for a Sony edition.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] moneybooboo:
Has anyone ever had a hardware related issue with the ZU? I'm trying to see how risky it is without factory warranty?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
Knock on wood: My C6802 has been absolutely troublefree and I expect the same from my new C6833, which works great so far. I can't remember anything about specific defects affecting the Ultra during the time it has been in the market.

My C6802 was one of the first sold devices (got it August 1, 2013) and has been flawless.

I don't consider the factory warranty to be of that much of an importance - most of my devices are out of it regardless since root and custom ROM is one of the first things that goes in.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rsohne:
I bought a C6833 about 2 months ago and it has been rock solid. The company I bought it from on EBay said they warranty for a year but you know how that goes. Other than soft bricks caused by me farting around with roms this phone has been rock solid out of the box.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Paul in Maryland:
My first Z Ultra C6806 GPE failed after 8 months. The micro USB charging port developed a short; when I'd connect a charging cable (2-wire or 5-wire), the phone would actually draw more current rather than charge. Shortly thereafter, the magnetic charging port lost its pins when they were yanked out by a too-strong magnetic cable adapter.

I had bought the phone in a sealed box from Craigslist. But even though I was the first user, I wasn't the original buyer, so neither Sony nor Google would fix it for free under warranty.

You'd think I'd learned my lesson. But I replaced it with ANOTHER (briefly used) C6806 GPE from ANOTHER local Craigslist seller! What can I say? I'm in love with this phone.

Sony xperia Z ultra C6833

Hi dear,

My name's Alex, i'm from Italy. 5 months ago I bought a sony xperai z ultra model C6833. Now I have a problem with touchscreen is fissured and doesn't respond. I decided to change the lcd display touch screen glass digitizer but in sell i find for Sony Xperia Z Ultra XL39h C6802 this model will be compatible but my model ??

Best regards
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] rockky:
The 700 frequency will be wide open in the next few months in Chicago (one of the last cities to get it)....should improve signal penetration which would r e a l ly be big for me.

Unfortunately 6833 doesn't harness that frequency I don't think.

I think software updates can fix it. Highly doubt we'll see it from Sony tho.

Anyone see a big difference when U got that frequency?

Man I'm getting the c6833 retail for an even trade for a Verizon Moto X 2014 version I got free so I think its a good deal.

My issue is I'm in a place where There is no T- Mobile, just ATT, and Verizon. With these new laws recently can I just hook this up to Straight talk , Verizon prepaid, or what. I have no idea what to do. Ideally I would love to be ST, on Verizon's towers. Should I not do the trade guys? I need some insight here. Thanks in advance
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pditty8811:
Hey guys.

I just purchased a C6833. I have Straight Talk and live in Northwest USA.

I have a choice to purchase a T-Mobile or AT&T sim card to use with Straight Talk. Which should I chose? Apparently from the carriers' sites AT&T has the best coverage, but T-Mobile will be the only one that will give me LTE? I noticed that ATT covers more of the rural areas that I visit often.

Which sim should i purchase?

Decisions, decisions...

Thanks.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Reuven007:
For the model you purchased only T-Mobile's LTE will work. AT&T will work too, but only HSPA, not LTE. The model c6806 will work with both comanies LTE.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pditty8811:
Right, so what should I pick? ATT better coverage in rural areas no LTE, or T-Mobile lesser coverage in rural areas with LTE.

I'm an indecisive whore!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Reuven007:
It depends on how you use your phone. If you spend time mainly in rural areas, then go with AT&T network. If like me, you are mainly in urban area with good T-Mobile then go with them.

I find that T-Mobile has improved tremendously and is not far behind the big boys.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] eghoti1:
Not sure if anyone is still monitoring this thread, but I picked up the c6833 using on AT&T in NYC. Am getting LTE sign using normal APN settings. I noticed that if I go underground I need to toggle on/off airplane mode for LTE to come back, if not then only H+ will show
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Anerpy:
Hi, I need assistance. I want to buy a sony xperia phone and I wonder if you can help me to choose the right one. I look for a sony xperia z ultra that can work with ATT and that is internationally unlocked. So should have chosen the c6833, c6802 or c6806. Thanks

While the SPG412 uses the APQ8074 v1 and the C6806, SOL24, C6833, C6806 and C6843 using the MSM8974 v1.

The C6802 has the MSM8274 v1 which has no LTE capability.

AT&T owner here.

TWRP installed flawlessly. CleanROM 1.0 installed flawlessly and booted up just fine.

OP was not kidding, Factory Reset took about 5 minutes. Just be patient.

I'm happy to report TWRP did not nuke out my pictures on Factory Reset, like my Factory Reset via LG settings menu did the other night (sadpanda).

I really, really, really wish AT&T Ready2Go or whatever the hell that is was replaced with the Stock setup that triggers a proper App Backup/Restore process, but no big deal.

FYI, if you want street names back in Google Maps, change your Text-to-Speech to Pico TTS from LG TTS. Unfortunately, Pico TTS is not natural sounding, and there doesn't appear to be a way to sideload Google Text-to-Speech yet. I attempted ganking Maps/VoiceSearch from /system and installing them manually to get the Google Services directly, but it didn't help.

Thanks Scrosler! Runnin' just fine.

- Tried factory reset from recovery mode multiple times but no luck.

- I tried to install factory 4.3 as well as 4.2.2 using adb sideload but constantly get the error.. "Signature verification failed". I checked the md5 checksum for my downloaded file and it seems fine.

What am I doing wrong here ? Amongst the images downloaded in a .tgz file what is the the file I should be using for sideload ? Everywhere i searched for help its mentioned that the zip file for the image should be renamed to update.zip. Is this necessary ? also the factory images are in .tgz format not .zip

What am I missing here ? Sorry but I am a novice with Android so excuse me if this question is sort of basic.

Note : I am using xubuntu to run the adb command
