Hi,
My family member in Canada just sent me their old SM-N930W8.. Just waiting for the phone to arrive xD Can it be made to work in the UK? My network is Three.
It doesn't come with any warranty so therefore I'm sure I can flash it but can someone help? Also what does Google Account Locked mean?
Thanks

I would like to purchase T-mobile MDA-3 for use in the USA and Europe. Can I just put in my US simcard and will it work or does it need to be unlocked? What should I look out for? ANy suggestions would gratly be appreciated?
Most come unlocked. I just recived my MDA III, it was T-Mobile branded when I recived it. Came in a German T-Mobile Box, but my ROM was English. I bought mine through Tiger-Direct.
Do you mind if I ask how much you paid for it? Also, will my current T-Mobile sim drop in and work?
The MDA3 is quad band so you should be able to use it anywhere in the world! So long as you have roaming set up on your sim you should be fine!
Not so sure about the locking though!
I am using it in the US
I have an iMate PDA2K in the US and it works just fine. T-Mobile gets a bit confused when you call tech support and their system can't automatically recognize your device, but I just tell them that I have one of their HP Windows Mobile models that they sell in the US and they seem cool with it. All I did was swap in my SIM card and it started working right away. GPRS, etc all works fine.

I can stand Telstra and as they are only available in Australia via Telstra, i want to purchase one outright. I want to know if anyone knows if this phone will work well on the 3 network.
The unlocked HTC desire will work on any network in Australia (not as good on telstra). I'm getting mine from clove on the 7th . Plussss, it's ALOT cheaper getting it imported from the UK, all up it comes to like $550 if i can remember right. It will be around $800 outright from Telstra.
P.S i forgot to mention that you can't get it from t-mobile, you'll have to wait for the unlocked version.

I'm pretty sure all of the T-Mobile ones are unlocked . Check with others on the forums. T-mobile is probably not an option anyway unless you have a UK address- I dont think they sell them outright??
Will definitely work on 3mobile Australia. I'm also getting one from clove. I'm checking about every hour to see if they have brought the shipping date forward
T-Mobile ones are LOCKED.
Both versions will work on Three, but the International version will not work on Telstra

by International I mean the sim-free/unlocked ones from Handtec/Clove etc

Ive asked for clarification of that from wiki mod. I don't see why you couldn't use NextG. Unless the APac model is different from the AU model, they all support the same bands.
Do you know any reason why NextG differs from other 850 networks? Not that I care - Id rather cut my arm off with a rusty saw than go on a telstra plan. Just curious, thats all.
Hello guys, I am currently located in the Caribbean (Dominican Republic) and will be traveling next month to the US. I plan to order a Galaxy Nexus while I am there and take it back with me to the Dominican Republic. I would like to know if this phone will be able to be used outside the US without an issue (My provider uses the same GSM band as ATT USA)?
Oscar
Yes, it will work for you. You can use it on any GSM carrier in the world.

Thanks for the fast reply! It's a relief to know :victory:
Bring some of those Dominican women back to the states also :good:
Its (in all practicality) the exact same as all other i9250 unlocked GNexes.
A Galaxy Nexus in Venezuela.
Hi you all, I hope someone reads this or something. I'm new around here. Even though I don't think so, I hope not to be breaking any rule by posting in this particular thread.
I'm about to buy a Nexus and have it shipped to Venezuela, let's see how that goes.

Oscar, I travel every year to the DR and this year it would be for christmas.
This time I want to be able to use a SIM Card and have data over there.
I have looked for them on the web, but with no success, so I found this and I was wondering if you could provide me with the bands of the carriers operating in the country: Orange, Viva and Claro.
And some additional information about the quality in the service of each one of them.
You can PM me if you want to.
Well, hopefully you'll reply jajajajaja :fingers-crossed:

Hi all.
I'm considering buying an m8. A friend is selling one that is locked to the Vodafone network and I'm on ee. I've seen unlocked codes are cheap. My question is. Will it work OK on the ee 4g band? Or am I going to come across issues.
Cheers all.

It'll work, all the UK M8 are the same model just some might have branded software (e.g. Vodafone, EE) on them and some might be the unbranded version
I bought a Vodafone M8 a month ago, got it unlocked on eBay for 1.99. Paid for sunshine to get it s off and change the phone to unbranded m8. For you question yes it will work with all networks once you get it unlocked
Youre a gent, thanks for the reply !!!!!! Will take the plunge in that case
