Got A Phone From Japan

Hi all

Do you know any shop that modify phone in Chiang rai ? Thanks .

I believe Japan uses an entirely different bandwidth than anywhere else so the phones cannot be used outside of Japan.

Why dont' you try posting in the internet/communication forum with the model number and see if anyone knows if it can even be used in Thailand?

Depends on what you want.

If your phone is triband , then no problem.

Suggest you talk to some of the phone shop guys in Big C. Lots of them, there and a few inside that can understand English.

A Quad Band that accepts a SIM chip would be the best chance. If the phone does not accept a SIM, then there is little chance of it working here.

Best thing then put a SIM in and try it. Remember at least 2 of your 3 bands may be used for Japanese frequencies.
