Hey all. I might be teaching ESL in South Korea in January. I was wondering would this phone work there and would I be able to connect to the internet there? Also what are some pros/cons of this phone vs the American version? Thanks for all your help!

Hi everyone,
i have one short question.
I'm currently living in the US for the next few months and my HTC Desire keeps on rebooting and HTC won't repair it in the US, because it's an german vodafone branded version.
Anyways, i need a new phone.
If I buy the SGSII here in the US, will I be able to use it in Germany aswell?
Because currently I cannot use 3G with my Desire (carrier is t-mobile), only EDGE. It would be a real bummer if I couldn't use the SGSII to it's full extend (meaning 3G etc.) in Germany.
Thanks for your answers!
Th unlocked Europe version is compatible with both Europe and US 3g radios.
ya well, but i want to buy it in the US and use it in europe. Not the other way round.
I think that's what he meant.
Never live in the past but always learn from it.
Could just buy Europe version online.

That's what I meant... Plus there are a stores in the US that will sell it.
gs2 unlocked version is quadband 3g 850, 900, 1900, 2100mhz. i'm assuming german is 900mhz. so you can use 3g in anywhere except tmobile usa (1700mhz).
Im in China and the S2 is available in WCDMA form. I'm currently on Verizon wireless will this phone be compatible with Verizon or any other US carrier? Sorry if this question has already been asked/answered, Im on a very slow connection and having trouble searching. Thanks for anyone that helps!
no one knows?

Did you try any T-Mobile US phones?
Hey! Found your question on Google, and I felt like I had to answer this.
Did you try any T-Mobile US phones? When I go to the Dominican every summer, I bring a T-Mobile phone and I get a 3G signal instantly, even when I'm in Mao Valverde, and as you know in El Cibao, the signal drops from 3G to GSM especially as you leave Santiago or any metro city. Yes I am using Orange Dominicana, I'm in the Dominican right now, I searched on ebay and found the HTC Sensation unlocked used for $155. If you search on the Orange site I found the Samsung Galaxy S2, this is a good phone too, sold on AT&T here in the States. I hope I helped you! P.S.- Lmaoo at your friends wanting to change from a blackberry to an Android device, my parents and my friends are doing the same either with Android or an iOS device.
Hey guys.
I'm Dominican and bought an ATT GS2 but 3g doesn't work on it.
Can you guys help me.
Don't know if I have to flash a new modem on it or what.
Return it! or go to Claro

It just wont work with Orange Over 3G because Orange provides data over the 900Mhz Band and the AT&T version does not support it.
Claro does support the 850Mhz which your phone runs perfectly so if you switch to Claro you'll get 3G. Also the Galaxy S2 i9100 Global Version (I Have it and it works even with Viva ) might be good for you maybe its too late for a return but who knows.

Hey guys.. I'm in Europe, Czech Republic right now and there is one good deal on Galaxy S3. The phone is factory unlocked.. I wonder, if its gonna work on my Canadian Telus, or Bell... Does anybody know how it works? Is it unlocked only for EU, or all world? I don't wanna have another problems like with my HTC Rezound, that works only on Rogers in Canada, even if I changed Custom ROM...
Thanks...
It's unlocked worldwide. You'll just have to make sure that it supports your carrier's frequencies (it probably does)
Hi, I just came to canada and need to buy a smartphone. I don't want to engage in a contract as I will be leaving for Australia in 4 months time and then from there to Pakistan
I am confused about different flavours of Samsung devices and concerned if they will work at full capability in Australia (pakistan doesn't even have 3g yet!) , Like this S3 I747

or these two minis

Any input would be appreciated.
Also, is there a way to get the phone unlocked at a cheaper price ? I mean is there a software one can unlock with? I am sorry but this whole locked phone thing, it's pretty alien to me
If you're planning on country-hopping, buy an unlocked international model straight out if possible (ie. The I9300/I9305, not the I747). Canada, Australia and Pakistan will most likely all have different spectrum frequencies, so buying a Canadian model probably won't work on Australian or Pakistan mobile networks.
Australia in particular has slightly different devices (eg. I9305T, N7105T), probably to adjust to their frequency bands.
