Could I buy an unlocked Xperia to use in my country right?
It wouldn't have 3g ability in Costa Rica afaik. Otherwise it should work provided your cellphone carrier is a GSM network.

Hi all,
I want know if it's possible to use HTC vogue in france?
Thx in advance
Assuming your network enables International Roaming then yes.
No, the Vogue is CDMA and France is all GSM. You're pretty much out of luck travelling internationally with a CDMA as 90% of the world uses GSM. There are a few places (Mex, Canada, New Zealand, etc) that have CDMA networks though.

90%? lol, i would say more like 60/40. mostly Australia, Europe, Asia, Africa .. japan is WCDMA. everywhere else it's in between.
But the frequency are 900/1900 for Vogue
CDMA it's not a high bandwith network???
WCDMA is not really the same as old CDMA
Hi,
I'm currently living in Europe (France) but I will be moving to California (San Francisco) in early December. I own a blackstone, which I bought here in France.
How should I expect it to work in San Francisco? From what I understood, I might not enjoy 3G+ ... Is that true?
Any informations welcome
it will not have 3G service. Only the Tesla model will work with 3G in the states. My touch HD works works vary well in San Fran but it is the ausy model
As stated there is no 3G service.
However, plenty of free WiFi areas.
Ok, thank you very much! I guess there IS a 3G service, but my phone isn't compatible, right? In that case I'll just sell my phone before moving ... Or is it possible that there is still no 3G service in SF??

3G service in available in all major US cities; your phone needs to have the right US 3G bands. for at&t the 850/1900 band is used for 3G, for T-Mobile (i believe) it's 1700/2100.
what he said, so make sure the phone you buy next is North america 3G compatible (850-1900htz 3G). My Blackstone only has 850 htz 3G but I have never had a area where my ATT fuze was 3G and my Touch HD(ausy model) wasn't.
Okay, all clear now. Thanks a lot for all your help.
Cheers
Does anyone know if the nexus one will work on european 3g networks?
http://pocketnow.com/tech-news/google-nexus-one-specs-leaked-sales-by-invitation-only there is a spreadsheet with the baseband versions and if i compare this to my htc hero where it says hsdpa 900MHZ and 2100MHZ then it looks like that the hero will work on europe 3g? because it uses 900, 2100 +aws which is t-mobile usa?
looks like the n1 supports the UMTS band I (2100)
nearly every telco uses this band in europe
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_UMTS_networks
yes you can use 3g in europe
Yeah it should Work like mentioned above.
3 United Kingdom
T-Mobile United Kingdom
Telefónica O2 United Kingdom
Vodafone United Kingdom
Orange United Kingdom
Doesn't look like there's a network it wont work on in the UK!
The Nexus One may just work on other 3g networks from what ive heard just a rumor though.

Hey!
first hello, I'm a newbie here!
sorry if I double-post.
Is there a thread with the parameters of the different network operators for the 3G access ?

Also you can reach me via private msg. thru this forum..

Hi Guys,
I like Epic 4G but in Italy, where I live, this smartphone isn't sold. So, I've found some nice offers on ebay to buy it, but I've a question hoping you can answer to it.
In Italy there are no 4G networks, so will it work if'll use it with H3G usim under 3G networks?
Thanks a lot for your attention.
Regards
yall have cdma in italy?

If Italy has 1900/800 Mhz Bands and you (or perhaps the carrier) can find a way to provision the CDMA to look for italy SIDs it then Yes! it will work. Provisioning data may be tricky though. You would just leave the Wi-Max radio on the off position.
There is no CDMA in Italy, it won't work whatsoever.
