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's already unlocked SIM)?

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.

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

Not tried it, but UK O2 Orbits are not network locked, you can put any SIM in - although with it not being a 3G device, there seems little point in putting a Three SIM in as it will just drop back to whichever GSM network Three piggybacks on (O2 I think). I'v just bought a three sim for £1.25 on ebay, so I'll load it up and see what the coverage is like near me - I only get intermittent t-mobile in my place...
it used to be possible but then 3 started to locking their sims so they only worked in 3g phones
aha!
im not so fussed about the 3g coverage its more being able to use that sim card in the phone, whethe rit roams off of o2 or etc. i got my phoen unlocked (originally t-mobile compact 3) and its the only simcard that doessnt work - thats why im suspicios of this shop[ who says they can doo it for £50
please keep me updated as to how your simcard goes, and if anyone knows a way of doing this im all ears!

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
