I don't know. Whats the default ? Do they sell the locked & unlocked ?

It is unlocked by default

Its unlocked. Golan works great. Google probably would confirm that.

[Q] Galaxy S II in Saudia Arabia

Now that the SGS II is available in KSA, it's still not arabized, any idea when they'll release an update for that?
Another thing; since it's available in English version, does it have the hubs (game and music)???
Thanx in advance...
Officially available from samsung dealer?? because if its officially from samsung dealer it should support arabic.
I've been told that it's sold in carrefour and hyper, dunno if it's available in samsung stores yet!

sure it will work if it's an international version but not sure if it's locked on a certain carrier like O2 or orange, and yes there are free wifis in mecca in some places but not sure about medina.

I bought SGS2 from starlink in doha, qatar..i was told if i wanted arabic..i must go to samsung service centre to get the rom uploaded. I did not bother to go becoz iam already using madmack's arabic fix which is sufficient for me.

Is it working well? Any drawbacks? Is it worth the rooting, coz i don't want to root now...
Thanx in advance
I love this phone!!
I got the phone 2 days ago
All i have to say is that i adoooooore this magnificent device!
Stock rom is perfect, updated the cam firmware and working good now. No hardware issues as mentioned by other users, maybe i'm lucky
The hubs are in there but music hub is not supported in the country.
Doesn't have the arabic support, dunno if i should root to enable it thru Madmack's fix or wait for the original stock update.
Overall, best phone i ever owned!!

In Japan the Samsung Galaxy S III has an upgraded model called Alpha under the service provider Docomo. I was interested in knowing whether anybody had attempted to root the new device. I tried to post a link but I was blocked.

Did you ever get your 3G running?
I am considering this phone, is it the same as yours (N9700)?
http://www.pandawill.com/n9700-smar...-50-inch-1gb-4gb-3g-otg-gps-white-p85676.html
If it is the same, what process's did you use to root, cwm and custom rom?

You try to upgrade and it gets locked OR you upgraded and it gets locked???
I'm unaware of flashing custom ROM causing the sim-locked.

Explain to them the situation. I think they should not have any problem giving you the code. Especially since the phone is more than 2 years.

Hmmm, that's odd, maybe I'm behind the curve but still weird flashing custom ROM causes sim locked.
Can you revert back to the previous OS? 4.1.2 maybe and see if problem still there?
Anyway, where do you get the AOKP 4.2.2?

One of the gsm guys can probably help you with the apn settings for your carrier. Fingerprint reader won't work unless your boot loader says locked.

Do you know the APN settings for your carrier because you will need to add that one and likely the MMS one for your phone.
