Anyone try a Verizon SIM?

I know this is a GSM phone, but has anyone tried a Verizon SIM to see if you receive any LTE coverage?

The phone has LTE and 4g

Probably no Verizon bands though...

Apparently it will probably work for data, but would not work for calls. Not entirely sure why, and can't remember where, but there are disclaimers somewhere that say it doesn't work on verizon.

I'm sure it's not officially supported by Verizon (just like the Axon 7) , but was wondering if anyone tried a SIM

Sprint and Verizon are CDMA for voice and have various Bands for LTE. If you want to check try website willmyphonework.com. It shows what freqs and Bands work for a specific phones and geo locations.

Do you know which model the US version is? Looks like it might work on the AL models

Verizon uses volte so in theory you could get voice, but the phone might not jive with Verizon's implementation.

Bump... Looks like some of the international versions might have Verizon bands... Not sure the US version does

 

[1901Madison]

I don't think bumping is doing any good.

I know, doesnt seem like anyone is interested in trying and I am surprised there isn't much out on the web on it...too bad
