I saw a T-Moblie Pocket PC Phone Edition (It has a gold case) on sale, the seller said the manual described it is a GSM 900/1800, but as I known it should be a US GSM 900/1900. Is it a GSM 900/1800 version gold case "T-Mobile Pocket PC Phone Edition" avalible?
Thanks and sorry for my bad english
Hello!
Just wondered if any of you have got the SGS3 online from Three UK and if it was sim locked or not?
I don't have another micro sim to check but the phone is branded by three (start-up/shut-down animation, three app and option for gsm only removed) so I imagine they have sim locked it as well.
You can call their customer services to have it unlocked but I don't know how much they charge.
I have my Vodafone SIM running in my 3 GSIII. Works fine
My Three UK SGS 3 has a 3 boot animation.
It is unlocked to all networks.
I have tried an 02 and Orange microsim card.

Locked or not later today comes an unlock guide by Odia.
He did manage to unlock my phone that was locked on Three of Sweden.
Just patience people
Hi friend, i hope you can help me!
I bougth an Note5 F6, it´s a dual sim phone with 6" screen and Android ICS. In "Enginner Mode" and next BandMode option appears UMTS Mode, WCDMA-IMT-2000, WCDMA-PCS-1900. Does it means that phone works on this frecuencies? If so...why doesn´t phone detect any network? My my last phone does, but when i set sim card on Note5 not. I´m interested on 1900 3G network. Thanks!

Mmm nobody knows...
So I bought a Dev Lumia 920 used off eBay since I'm using T-Mobile and need the 1700mhz band.
I turned it on today for the first time (again, the phone is used so this is the first time for me) and briefly the AT&T logo appears...
The phone has AT&T live tiles too so now I'm starting to think I was bait-n-switched...
However the IMEI number in device settings matches the IMEI on the Dev box and the phone is missing the AT&T logo at the top left. I can prove it with pictures, lol.
So anyone know what's going on with this phone? Looks Like I have Dev hardware but AT&T software?
I've done a hard reset and the AT&T software stays... am i stuck with AT&T software?
With a T-Mobile SIM the phone makes calls, but only lets me access EDGE speeds...
Any insight is appreciated!

It looks like your best bet is to flash it!
So download Nokia Care Suite and navifirm+ 1.7
You're looking for the following:
Products: Nokia Lumia 920 (RM-821)
Releases: 1232.2110.1244.3002
Variants: RM-821_ROW_DeveloperDevice_VAR251040_Black_v2_Black (059R4H6)
Then find online how to flash it, and it SHOULD work. Not putting any promises though as I have got an EE-Locked Lumia 920

I think he probably has a North American version (RM-820) so I guess that flashing the RM-821 firmware would just brick the device (meaning that it would have to be re-flashed with a RM-820 firmware then in order to un-brick it)
But if your phone is a RM-820 I guess you should be able to flash it to the Rogers Canada firmware. And since the Rogers version of the phone does support the 1700 MHz band I think that this might unlock that band on your phone too.
But first thing I would do if I were you is to check your phone's product code (you can do that using the "Product Support Tool For Store 5.0" in the Nokia Care Suite) and then try to download & flash the firmware matching that product code first.
Only if that doesn't work I would try flashing the Rogers firmware (only if your device is a RM-820 though because flashing an RM-821 with the Rogers firmware would probably brick it too)
Thanks guys, I definitely have a Dev phone... So it is 820 or 821? I'll run Nokia Care Suite and see what it comes up with.
Update:
I can't find the original RM-820_nam_canada_246 anywhere.
I tried to flash to RM-821_ROW_DeveloperDevice_VAR251040_Black_V2_Black but that won't work because the device is RM-820.
Then I tried an RM-820_Rogers_Canada flash and it worked to get the phone started but still no T-Mobile 3G.
Damn, lol.
Hi all, won an eBay auction for a used 920 (uk) which is claimed to be unlocked.
Put my Vodafone sim in it, very very poor signal strength (when I get any at all) and won't make or receive calls (I get full bars on Vodafone in my location).
Put a GiffGaff sim in, exactly the same issue.
Tried manually choosing Vodafone (pre-pay) from the settings but makes no difference.
It doesn't tell me it's locked to a network, it just doesn't work.
Is this the behaviour of an EE phone and is there any way to tell if it is on EE (firmware, etc?);
Carrier: CV GB SW Variant ID 276 v03
Have been through the Nokia support chat and am about to send it back to Nokia for repair just wanted to make sure it's not an EE phone before it goes back. Nokia say according to their tool it is not locked to EE...
