Hello Vule011,

• 2G GSM GSM850, GSM900, DCS1800, PCS1900
• 3G UMTS B1(2100), B2(1900), B4(AWS), B5(850), B8(900)
• 3G TD-SCDMA B34(2010), B39(1880)

Thank you  for the answer,I looked at the Samsung Canada site to and indeed all the frequencies are there..

The problem is the Fido site,which says otherwise..I just wanted to make sure Fido didn't tinker with the phone which sometimes OEM's do..

Thanks..

Hey @vule011

Welcome to the Community!

Thanks for reaching out to us with this! Can you elaborate a little more about why you think they're inaccurate?

[vule011]

Some of the 4G frequencies for the S7 and S7 edge are missing..So I dont know, is it Intentionally or otherwise?

Did Fido tinkered with the LTE frequencies for these specific phones?

[FidoCatherine]

Hey there @vule011 

All Fido phones are configured to Fido. The frequencies are as @Cawtau mentioned above: all of the information he shared there are definitely accurate. What information do you find inaccurate on Fido.ca? We'll make sure that's looked into!

[vule011]

the information about the 4G(LTE) frequencies for the S7 and S7 Edge,on the Fido site when you go to specifications, some of the bands are not listed! As for, for example when you look at Galaxy A5 the bands are all listed correctly..Thanks

Hey @vule011

I reviewed the frequencies for the Samsung S7 and S7 Edge and the information is correct. The bands listed for those devices are the ones compatible with these specific phones. 

Hope that clarifies that for you.
