please, anyone can tell me can I use my phone in Korea? actually I've just moved to Korea, and as I checked with my country SIM card and my friend SIM card (from Bulgaria) , the phone worked as roaming and i could make a call, so I think that it's possible to use my phone with the service here, but when I borowed a SK telecom SIM card from my friend's phone and put it into my phone, the phone didnt work, so please tell me do I have to unlock, install or register anything to use the service here (my phone already unlock SIM)?

Hi
I leave in israel, i have htc-9500 (wallaby) and i installed the unlock
software from this site.
In Israel, we have 2 main companies that use GSM network
the first is "CELLCOM" and the other is "ORANGE".
when i put SIM CARD of Orange, everything was ok !
when i put SIM CARD of Cellcom, the mobile can not find the network.
both companies use GSM network with 900/1800 band.
What is the problem ?
Why is it work with one company and did not work with the other ?
Thank you very much
Well may be its still locked to ORANGE or your other sim is no good.
Hard to tell based on what little info you have given.
i made few phone calls from
the ORANGE sim card...
and with the CELLCOM sim card it did not find the network.
the sim card of cellcom is good it work on nokia 6100
thx

Hello
From what I know is, Korea use CDMA signal instead of WCDMA (European 3G signal) there for I'm afraid that you will need to get a phone in korea.

Having a problem with a Telstra HD2 model.
With a Telstra SIM in the phone, I can make and receive calls. When I insert a Vodafone SIM into it, I cannot make or receive calls. Call hangs up straight away.
Device is not network locked as HTC phones are not locked with Telstra. Bars display in task bar.
Tried it with Windows 6.5 (factory default) and Android custom ROM. Currently on custom ROM.
Any thoughts?
I had a similiar problem a few years ago and all i had to do was get a new sim card. I was told i had damaged my sim card some how but i was able to save the contacts, transfer them over to the new sim T-mobile gave me and I have not had another problem since.
If you have access to another phone try and insert both sim cards you have in the other phone. If you have problems in the other phone with the sim card thats not working you can safely say its the sim card thats not working correctly and not a phone issue.
Thanks for the reply Craze.
My SIM's do work as I use my Telstra SIM (that works in the HD2) in my old Nokia and my Vodafone on my Galaxy Nexus Prime.
So on the HD2, my Telstra SIM works where I'm able to receive and make calls and my Vodafone is the opposite.
Could it be the phone? I'm hoping that it is so that I can fix it.
Could it be the network providers? If so, then I'll call them which I've already done but they couldn't give me an answer as to why my Voda SIM does that in the HD2.
Hi guys
I have got a Galaxy S4 i9505 with a label that it's a European model and will works with sims in the europe. Could someone please help me on what does that mean? I have tried searching and reading but it's all conflicting statements.
1) Do I activate it with my UK sim card and then it can be used anywhere in the world?
2) Do I take my UK sim card everywhere I travel around the world and first switch on the device with UK sim and then later on swap the sim with local to use the phone?
3) Can I use the phone normally and then use a software which can enable the phone to use any sim in the world?
Thanks

Hi guys,
I am Italian and I bought an S5 (SM-G900F - international) when I went back in Italy for vacations and I've used the phone for a week there with my italian sim card. Now I am back to Canada. I put my canadian sim card but it doesn't want to find "Wind Mobile" I am in roaming with "Wind away" when I go to select a network provider I can see "BELL", "TELUS" but nothing about "Wind Mobile".
When I bought the phone a samsung representative told me I could have used to phone worldwide. So now I do not understand what the issue is. I do not think it is sim unlocked cause in Italy they do not do that. In addition I do not see any place to put a code to unlock the sim so... I was wondering if there is a region lock and how to solve the problem. Thanks
