Thai Mobile Phone

[simcity]

My mobile phone is playing up , I need to get one soon .

No model I like ! only one , a nokia !

Problem I have is the keyboards is in Thai and English , and that make it very hard to type !

I telephone to nokia and they told me every phone in Thailand are the same ..

My solution perhaps will be to get this model oversea and use it here .

i am with AIS now

Can someone know what countries if any are compatible ?

And if to change something inside will damage the phone ?

Thank

Get a mobile just about anywhere EXCEPT the US. Malaysia is reasonably priced, close and has English keyboards.

Just swapping your SIM card won't hurt the phone.

the keyboard is only a floppy bit of rubber (basically). Look on ebay for a duff one the same model as yours. Buy it and change the keyboard. Well, that's what i'd do. What model is it, simcity?

Did you get an error message on the display? What was it?

The only thing that would stop your phones working is if they are locked to a particular network. Unlocking is relatively simple, a job for your local phone repair chap.

Malaysian phones are not usually locked.

yes many people said can be unlock for few hundred baht , but worry about warraty after

yeah, I see what you mean simcity, the key board doesn't look interchangeable. Nice looking phone. Just had a look on e-bay though and there seems to be a lot on there fairly cheap from China and Hong Kong. E-mail the sellers and ask if they have English key board. Also, they all seem to be unlocked for any network.

32k for a PHONE??????

Does it make toast.... for that matter does it make phone calls.

Why pay more than $150 for a mobile?

More money than sense.
