just a quick question? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have just bought my mates SGS2 which has got which is on vodafone, i got home and tried my O2 sim in it and it works
The question is, is the phone unlocked or is does O2 sim cards work in vodafone SGS2's?
Cheers guys

mmm...i think it is unlocked! the second opinion seems so strange...

O2 is not Vodafone network so its unlocked .
jje

Cheers for the time to help me

Unless he unlocked it himself its highly likely that he got the phone from phones4u or a shop similar, these are GSM phones unlocked to any network, at least that's what mine is

UK XDA will it work in IReland

Hi All
Wondering if anyone could answer a query.
I have a friend selling his UK XDA and I said I would buy it. Just need to make sure it will work in Ireland on my 02 sim card here?
Anyones help would be great!!
Thanks
Should be fine, you can download the latest updates from o2 ireland if necessary.
When you put in a new SIM card it will ask if you want to reconfigure unit with card to local settings, its foolproof.
Both UK & IRL gsm networks work on the same frequency.
eire xda
i come from cork but live in luton and my uk xda works fine even i have tried it with 2 different irish sims

It is enough if you post your question in one forum (you also posted it in General), this forum here is for Development.

You need to unlock Network lock -if it's locked-, not more than $30.
And you should check which GSM/3G/4G frequencies your GSM operator is using and compare with Note's specifications.
I used without issues my ATT unlocked Note for the last 2 weeks while travelling in Europe. I used a prepaid Italian TIM Mobile SIM card as service provider.

HTC Amaze 4g UK

Hello, I have a dumb question probably, sorry for that
I'm from UK and im planning to buy this phone from canada. It is sim free, but will it work on UK network???
thank you very much
It will work in the UK but verify that your carrier support the 3G/4G frequencies. If it doesn't, then you will be using 2G/Edge.
I'm on o2 UK with no problems. 3G works fine, not had the chance to see if 4G would work..
I might be selling my Amaze if you are interested?
A couple of very fine scratches on glass but you can't see with screen on anyway. S-off, rooted, unlocked, 4ext recovery.. etc.
Pick a Rom and I'll even put it on for you..
PM me..

It is sim free and it works on any network, limited only with supported frequencies. In Ireland and other EU countries there is no limit.
