Looks like it maybe compatible with the ATT bands but below are fido's z10 bands check with tmobile and att once unlocked you can used it in either network but may not be compatible with 3G/4G on both networks

Fido

GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

HSPA 850/1900/2100

LTE 700/850/1700/1900

Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n

GPS Yes, assisted with BlackBerry Maps

Luis is right here, now it will work on T-mobile where they have refarmed their spectrum to 1900mhz HSPA+ as well. But be cautious when doing that, as it is only in like 50 major cities in the usa.

I am on Bell (same phone fido uses) and when I am in the USA i roam on TMO 3G and ATT LTE.

Good luck!
