I live in america. Can i use 3G for cell phones. I am going to purchase a Sony Ericsson K800i?

Question by hans s: I live in america. Can i use 3G for cell phones. I am going to purchase a Sony Ericsson K800i?
It is a phone that will be imported from asia and I just wanted to know if I can use it over here because I have t mobile and it said the phone will work for tmobile.

Answer by perfectionist_tn
In America, we use GSM 850 and 1900 frequencies.
The K800 doesn’t support the 850 frequency band.

Luckily, T-Mobile operates on the 1900 band.

All this means is you’ll lose some roaming coverage.

Q&A: Can I cancel my 3 Mobile contract?

Question by DarkMethod: Can I cancel my 3 Mobile contract?
Ok so here’s there Return policy.

“Returns

If you bought your mobile online or via telesales:
If you’re a new customer who purchased your mobile via three.co.uk or from our own telesales team and for some reason you change your mind, provided you have not used your mobile, you can return it within 14 days of delivery. You’ll also have to return the original boxed accessories and documentation ‘as new’.

This policy doesn’t apply:

to new customers who did not purchase their mobile via 3′s telesales team or via three.co.uk
to new customers who purchased their mobile via 3′s telesales team who have used their mobile (this means that you may not personalise your mobile in any way, or use any of the 3 Services, or take photos or videos or load any data onto the mobile), or
to existing customers who choose (where allowed by 3) to upgrade their mobile.
In all circumstances you must return your mobile to the retailer from which you bought it, along with the original boxed accessories and documentation ‘as new’. If you are unsure what to do or who to contact. Call 0843 373 3333 and we will advise you if you are eligible under this Returns policy and how to return your mobile and original boxed accessories. Always retain copies of your receipt and proof of postage. ”

(I also received a letter at the same time I got the phone saying I can turn on phone, check menu’s and options & look at the phone + accessories without damaging in anything)

Long story short, I purchased my htc disire hd from 3 ONLINE on a 24 month plan (£40 per month) contract. The phone came today, i opened the box, opend the charger ( in order to charge the phone I am aloud to “turn on”) played around with the phone for a few minutes and immediately regretted my desition :l

Note: the phone, box and accessories is still in perfect condition!

Q&A: Will a UK mobile phone work with a Japanese SIM in Japan?

Question by Space Indaver: Will a UK mobile phone work with a Japanese SIM in Japan?
Rather than buy a new mobile phone in Japan, I’d like to keep my current phone and buy either a pay-as-you-go or a contract sim card, and put it in my UK Samsung Galaxy S.

Does anyone know if sim cards are even the same size/interface in Japan? Or whether mobile phones operate on the same signals (CDMA, 3G etc)?

Best answer:

Answer by Winston
All SIM cards (except Micro SIM cards) are the same size. Not all phones will work in Japan. Some 3G phones may but most won’t.

Answer by Code to Joy
It probably won’t be a very good connection, and be prepared to eat your 2GB limit quickly, but it should work somewhat at least.

Q&A: 3g Mobile Hotspot for LG Ally (Android)? 10 points best answer!?

Question by Melissa: 3g Mobile Hotspot for LG Ally (Android)? 10 points best answer!?
I have the unlimited data package. I am going up in the mountains in a few weeks and I don’t think there will be any WiFi available. It would be nice to have WiFi for iPods, laptops, etc. My phone has the 3g Mobile Hotspot app, but I want these questions answered:

I heard that it’s $ 20 a month. Is this true?

Can I pay for just a week?

Is how much you can use limited?

Can I turn it on and off?

Do I invite people to share my WiFi? Or do I have to be careful so that surrounding people don’t join my WiFi?

Do I have to call Verizon and activate it? Or can I just do it from my phone?

Thank you so much! It is greatly appreciated.

Best answer:

Answer by Corvato
yes, its $ 20 a month
no, you have to pay by month
its limited, 2gb for the $ 20, anything above that is more
yes, you turn it on/off with the app
you can tell people, or don’t… the range is limited though, you can also set up a password
you can activate it from your phone

How can you tell if 3G is working on your mobile phone?

Question by mindtherocket: How can you tell if 3G is working on your mobile phone?
I just bought a blackberry and its internet service is working fine in that I can access the internet and can download mp3s. However, it does everything very slowly. To put things in perspective, the handset spent about five minutes trying to download a 1.0MB file then gave up. For this reason, I doubt that 3G is working. Our home connection broadband is at least 10x this speed. What do I have to do to set up 3G on my phone? If you have a blackberry and went through the same process please help me out :)

Best answer:

Answer by Nixo
you cant set up 3G on your phone. it has to COME with ur phone.
you can call customer service and talk to them about it.
or you can go back to the place u bought ur phone and ask them whats wrong.

Adding Notification Sounds to MYTouch 3G Mobile?

Question by Seth: Adding Notification Sounds to MYTouch 3G Mobile?
Ive been trying to add new notification sounds to my MYTouch 3G Mobile, but I can only use the default sounds that come with the phone. I can not seem to find a way to add new sounds. Does anyone know how to add new sounds and possibly how to make it so I get a different sound from different peoples texts and such? Thanks! :D

Best answer:

Answer by DSB
You can’t give different text tones to different contacts, you’ll have to download another messaging app such as Handcent.

For different tones, you should be able to download and set the sounds using an app such as Zedge.
