Thanks! South Korea only.
Googled and didn't find that site, thank you. The Verizon S5 is not SIM locked, correct?

I've had a dozen of them. None was SIM-locked.

Short answer: no. You'll need to wait for the t-mobile version.

Going to Canada

Hello, I'm going over to Canada for a couple of days and had some general questions...
First, does Canada have prepaid options? I'm mostly needing data services. Where can I buy them and what is reliable / easiest to use? I'll be going to Vancouver from Washington state.
My phone is rooted, so if Canada has prepaid options available, is the phone unlocked so I can just switch out sim cards?
Thank you~
For couple days..eh..i would've said use Google voice grooveIP or talkatone.along with wifi...but if you buy tmobile.sim which I believe works with Canada tmobile network you should be fine...i mean couple.days...

Nice. So I'm assuming my verizon note 3 doesn't have to be unlocked? Just pop in the new sim card and it will work?
..
Yes the phone is unlocked already..and as a matter of fact I. Just left Verizon for at&t prepaid...been working good so far for more than a week now. ..save myself $60 a month...

S5 only gets 2 bars on international sim

I bought a verizon s5 and am using in dominican republic. I had a nexus 5. When i put sim in i only get 2 bars always and my 4g speed seems very low for being in the exact same place that my nexus got good signal?
Any clues on why?
No clue, in fact there is not do much you could do without root and service menu locked down.
I've been using this Verizon s5 in Colombia and Peru using local sims and no issues at all. Why don't you try another carrier?

Perhaps the Sim you have is not optimized for use with the S5.. Perhaps a new Sim is needed.
Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5 with a Colombian SIM
Am planning to use my S5 in Colombia, mostly Bogota, Villavicencio & Cartagena. Which companies (movistar?)SIM , and type/plan do you recomend? Any instructions as to how to do the "root and service menu locked down"?
I appreciate your help.

Buying a used Galaxy S5

Hello all, I'm in the market to buy a used/new samsung galaxy s5 that's unlocked. guy at sprint told me to make sure that the phone is not tied to a phone number.
How would I know if the phone is unlocked and also not tied to any NUMBER.
Thanks

From what I have READ, there's no such thing as unlocked cdma phone? Really?
So there is no way to use a verizon cdma phone with sprint?

Hi peeps...
a Proud new owner of my first Samsung phone.. Im a Nexus owner, owned a 4, 5 and 6P
My first question is does this phone support Carrier Aggregation in Canada, more specifically, for Telus/Koodo...

Yeah the ones the Canadian S7E are unlocked before a sim is put in and supports any carrier

I guess no one knows what Carrier Aggregation is...

What do you mean? I just answered that, this phone works on Telus and Koodo. Telus uses Bells towers, Koodo uses Telus towers,therefore there is no carrier aggregation as every carrier uses same towers and just pays a rental fee to have more coverage to the third party radio tower owners.
