Region lock. Note3 SM-N900

Hi there,
I have a sim unlocked SM-N900. I'm in Morocco now and use a local sim card to make phone calls. I also tried my Canadian sim card (Rogers) and I am able to make phone calls with Rogers sim card while in Morocco. There is no special sticker on the phone box mentioning any region lock. The phone is rooted.
My question is: Will I be able to use my canadian (Rogers) sim card in Canada ? Or is it possible that the phone could still be region locked? In this case using RegionLock Away could remove the lock ?
Model number: SM-N900
Baseband: N900XXUCMK1
Build Number: JSS15J.N900XXUCMK2
Phone is rooted
Thanks in advance

If your Rogers sim works in Morocco then it'll work in Canada, I'm Assuming it's using Roaming while in Morocco at least.

Thank you.

agree with @radicalisto, if your sim works there then it SHOULD work in your country as well... now just in case it doesnt work you dont have to worry, just flash one of the many region unlocked roms and you will be set..

Thank you

[Q] EUROPEAN S5 to ARGENTINA??

Can i use an european version of galaxy s5 in Argentina with a sim of a local carrier? i have got an european s5 (never used) and i would like to gift it to my brother that live in Argentina...
Thanks all.

Hi ebisco,
Samsung sometimes(often?) region lock their phone, which means if your phone is region locked then you would have to use it in Europe to region unlock it before using it with an Argentina SIM card, or pay for it to be region unlocked.

optus mobile i9505

Hi ?!
Yesterday I received i9505 . Mobile is optus mobile (Australia mobile )
I want to install custom rom
Is that international model?

Did you buy the phone from Optus Mobile?
Is the phone carrier locked (You can only use it with optus sim)?
The international s4 is neverlocked and can be used with any sim as far as I know.
Anyway, this is your modem I9505XXUGNH6 (latest)
Take it into consideration when rooting and installing a custom rom.

[Q] Can I install the Polish 5.0 build on a Carrier locked EE Note?

Can I install the Polish 5.0 build on a Carrier locked EE (UK) Note 9005?
Sorry for the question. I'm struggling to understand the requirements. My Note 3 is locked to EE. If I install the unbranded Lollipop 5 on this will it cause issues? Does the SIM lock have any affect on the ROM?

I'm thinking if I install the Polsih or UK Vodafone Firmware the phone will no longer work on my Provider? All I would then need to do is request a Unlock code?
Any help will be appreciated.......I'll leave thanks!
