Can I use roaming in Laos?

I am in Laos. When I arived  I got a message telling me of international services. I have been using a local network sim but just now when I put my EE sim back in the phone, I'm getting a NO SERVICE reading on my phone though it recognises my EE number. I have my phone set to find the network automaticly but still no response. I also have credit!Can anyone help?

Hi, 
Make sure you have roaming activated in your phone settings. Also chance your phone network to WCDMA/GSM only. 
Restart. 
You are in credit? 
Thanks,

  • How can I use international data on a prepaid sim (not vzw roaming) with the Galaxy s3?

    This has been incredibly frustrating.  I am in the middle of a trip to Europe.  Before I left, I confirmed with VZW CSR's that my s3 LTE phone is fully unlocked and that I could buy a local sim and use it while in Austria.
    Aside -- I can't use VZW global services on their network -- cost notwithstanding -- because I  hit some device limit when I bought my wife an iPad, and VZW required a deposit for it.  No big deal, EXCEPT that here three months later I learn that VZW accounting prohibits global roaming if you account has a deposit.  So fine, VZW doesn't want me to pay them a dollar a minute and $20/100MB.  No problem, I can get a drei (3) prepaid card for 10 euros that has 1000 minutes and 2 GB of data.
    So, I do.  I activate the card, and voice and sms work fine.  No data.  No joy.
    Step 1.  I call samsung.  Samsung, after about an hour of claiming it should work, decides that it is because VZW has some sort of software block.  Not surprising, since the software is actually from VZW.
    Step 2.  Call VZW.  After a great deal of ****  VZW says you have to go back to the drei store.
    Step 3.  Return to drei.  Store rep discovers VZW software will not recognize their access point name (APN), and will not let you enter it.  They verify on a different s3 that the sim is fine.  With my VZW sim, I can see the VZW APN's, but because I don't have global services turned on, no joy.
    Step 4.  Do some web digging.  Discover that this APN thing is a known bug.  Web sites (like the CSR in the transcript) suggest rooting or jailbreaking is the only workaround -- which I don't want to do.  But here I sit in Austria, with no data on a top of the line VZW phone and an account with seven different lines. 
    So, how do I resolve this?  Take the phone back, because there is clearly a defect?  But if it's software, I'll have to get an escalation to get a different phone.  Is there a fix?  Sue for false advertising?  Better yet, start a class action -- there sure seem to be a lot of us in this boat based on web searches.

    OK, I have to throw VZW some props here.  I went to the store where I bought my phones, and explained the problem I was having with international travel and the s3.  The store put me into an iphone5 for free as a warranty exchange -- apparently they know the APN issue is a serious one and they said there was a big lawsuit about it.  It cost me a bit for power adapters and such, and a few paid apps, but the iphone has (reportedly) no issues with international travel and local sims.
    Way to go, VZW. Mark this one up for responsive customer service.

  • Can you use a roaming network and wireless extender at same time?

    Greetings community - I've been struggling with an attempt to extend my wireless network for some time now. Please forgive my ignorance on the topic - I realize how 'simple' this is for many of you.  Let me summarize:
    What I have functioning:
    1. Comcast telephony modem
    2. 5th gen Airport Extreme as main wireless router connected to modem via Ethernet (corner of floor 3)
    3. 2nd gen Airport Express as wireless extender (hooked to a stereo on floor 2)
    What I want to accomplish:
    1. I have poor wireless signal on my sun porch (corner of floor 1 opposite side of building as modem)
    Extra equipment I have:
    1. Another 5th gen Airport Extreme
    2. Another 2nd gen Airport Express
    What I have tried (and failed at):
    1. Initially I set up the second Airport Extreme as a second wireless extender and placed it at a further point away than my first wireless extender.  I quickly realized that set up does not function appropriately and one cannot connect to the further extender (I read about that on the apple forums).
    2. I tried placing the second Airport Extreme in a different part of the house at equal distance from the main router as the first wireless extender.  It's capability to extend was minimal if any.
    3. I tried connecting the Airport Extreme to the main router via an Ethernet cable with the hopes of creating a roaming network (which I read about on the apple forums). I would have to come up with a way to run the Ethernet through the house but I'm willing to cross that bridge later.  Once I got that set up, the 2nd gen Airport Express which was previously set up as a wireless extender is no longer recognized. Argh!!
    Questions/Theories/Suggestions:
    1. Is it possible to have a wired extender (via Ethernet) function at the same time as a separate wireless extender all connected to the same router?  If so how do I do it?
    2. I thought about keeping Airport Extreme #1 wireless connected to Airport Express #1 and call that Network 1.  Then plug Airport Extreme #2 directly into the modem to create Network #2 and use Airport Express #2 as wireless extender.  When I tried plugging both Airport Extremes into the modem, they both stopped functioning.
    3. Do I get a second modem to put somewhere else in the house and use Airport Extreme #2 and Airport Express #2 in that fashion?  My guess is Comcast will try to charge me a separate internet access fee to do that (boo!!).
    I know there are a lot of brilliant folks out there.  I'm sure someone can read this and see the 'obvious errors' in my ideas and attempts.  I'm certainly open to new suggestions as well. 
    Thank you in advance for your time and advice.

    Is is possible to rename the AEx 2 a different network name from the AEx1 and AE 1 (even though they are all connected to each other)? And say it is possible, would that potentially preventing the jumping?
    No, in extend wireless the names must be the same..
    However since you are creating a network on AE2 which is extended by AEx2 then you can indeed use a different name.. but it must be both,, AE2 and AEx2.
    2. Even more crazy - if I did (could) give the AEx 2 a different network name, could I use my AE 2 as a wireless extension to that second network?  Or is this just getting out of hand now?
    You have lost me now.. there are ways and means.. but let me recommend a better solution.
    Use EOP (homeplug in US) adapters if you cannot run ethernet. Multi-storey houses where you have heavy concrete construction are never going to work well with wireless alone. You are much better getting ethernet properly installed (which is the only 100% guaranteed method).. or buy a set of EOP adapters and give them a try.. they work in some cases and not others.. but better than wireless when they do work.
    Otherwise I think you need higher power wireless routers.. but I can suggest you do the setup in a more controlled manner.
    In other words do not use auto as per the airport utility.. use very short wireless names, different for both bands.. and fixed wireless channels.. then test which band works better.. Then you can do a link.. which will be slow but might give you better performance.
    So..
    Link1 Main AE1---- AEx1 This is wireless extend.
    Link2 AEx1--ethernet--AE2. AE2 is in bridge mode and is also set to create a wireless network. (Use different wireless name here to prevent confusion).
    Link3 AE2-----AEx2 Second wireless extend.
    This overcomes the Apple limitation on multiple extends. It is not great setup but might get wireless to where you need it.. And better speed than you can get now.
    NOTE>. I would personally never do this.. I will run ethernet forevermore.. having tried and tried in various places and using all kinds of equipment.. my conclusion is.. wireless is not suitable.. unless you can get enough signal in from one AP.. everything behind it must be ethernet.
    It is much more expensive in some cases.. but ethernet works.. nothing else can be guaranteed to work.

  • I WANT TO BUY A MAC BOOK PRO. MUST I WAIT FOR THE ONE WITH RETINA DISPLAY. WILL THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO CD ROAM BE A PROBLEM. CAN YOU USE A EXSTERNAL CD ROAM ON A MAC?

    I WANT TO BUY A MAC BOOK PRO. MUST I WAIT FOR THE ONE WITH RETINA DISPLAY. WILL THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO CD ROAM BE A PROBLEM? CAN YOU USE AN EXSTERNAL CD ROAM WITH A MAC?

    Apple will gladly sell you a color coordinated and texture matching external SuperDrive to go with your Retina'ized MBP for about $80 bucks.
    Note that those models are completely sealed with no serviceable or upgradeable parts inside. So if you decide to bite the bullet, be sure to customize its guts to your heart's content from the get-go as no further change will be possible. This means CPU speed, amount of RAM and size of the solid state drive. Other external options, like the Superdrive, can be added later.

    Thanks,  After changing my settings in face time per your suggestion, (it needed to be done),  I turned off cellular data and data roaming and made a call using face time.  It worked!  Great way to stay in touch while overseas without the need for those egregious phone data plans. 

  • I have an iPhone 5 from India. I am going to USA for studying. Can I use the same iPhone over there or I will have to buy a new one?

    I have an iPhone 5 from India. I am going to USA for studying. Can I use the same iPhone over there or I will have to buy a new one?

    If officially unlocked, you can purchase a sim from one of the two nationwide GSM carriers, AT&T or T-Mobile. However, AFAIK, none of the carriers in India offer unlocking for the iPhone. Thus, if your phone is carrier locked, the only way it will work in the US is roaming...that would cost a fortune.
    So, if you have a carrier locked iPhone, leave it home or sell it before you come to the US, then purchase an officially unlocked iPhone, from Apple, when you get to the US. You'll be able to use that phone in India when you go back.

        Hi there Eartley! That sounds like an amazing opportunity for you! I am glad you are going to be able to study in Italy. The iPhone 6 is an excellent phone to travel with and you should have no problems using a local SIM card while you are in Italy. While I have not been to Italy myself and can not make recommendations for service providers out there, our Global Support Team may be able to help out! Here is where you can get in touch with them http://vz.to/1DgQ1IJ . Have a great trip!

    Can I use my norwegian iPhone 4 in the US for a few weeks?

    So I have lived in Daegu, South Korea for 9 months now. And our iphones work perfectly.
    Thankfully we didn't sell our phones in NZ, I had a look online and NZ doesn't lock IPhones to their networks like other countries.
    We went to SKT (in Daegu / National University of Ed) and bought new simcards for $10 each.
    Then signed up for contract / plans.
    We pay roughly $50 a month for unlimited data, 200 minutes, 600 text messages.
    It costs $9 to roam overseas a day.
    We've managed to travel to Japan and Hongkong using our South Korean sims.
    It' been pretty succesful for us.
    All I can say is, do heaps of research peeps, and don't stress :-)

    When I use my IPhone 4S to view the Shaw Go Movie Central App when I am at home I only use WiFi which is automatic, I start watching a show and sometimes I will get a message like "you can not use your cellular for video playback" or something close to that. Then I received an email from Telus saying I had used my 3G instead of Wi-Fi  using 75% of my data. How can this happen when I'm on Wi-Fi at home? If it switched to 3G for some reason I should have been disconnected and not just transferred to 3G network using up my data. What is the fix for this??

    It doesn't have to be that complicated, Verizon iPhones come unlocked, just tell VZ you're going on Holiday/Traveling and suspend the service, no need to pay for service if you're not going to be using it. Pick up local SIM cards in the countries of your choosing, pop them in, re-activate iMessage and you're set!
    I recommend getting a SIM card from the Three network in England, they have great EU roaming rates and free like-home roaming in Italy.
    Set your phone's region to match the country you're in, it'll save from some headaches when calling local/international numbers.
    To answer your questions,
    1. If you choose not to have a local SIM card, it is good to keep your phone in Airplane mode to save battery.
    2. Make sure the two iPhones have different names to reduce sync/restore issues.
    3. If husband has an iPhone also, you can chat with iMessage/Facetime, just give him heads up about the new number you'll have. Otherwise, use Whatsapp if he's got an Android. You can activate Whatsapp with your American number or the international number if you choose to get a SIM in Europe.
    Also, Get the MagicJack app and/or Google Hangouts, both of those apps provide you with free calling to the USA and Canada using any internet connection. Google Voice is another good way to SMS across the seas.
    Let me know if you need any more tips for iPhoning across the pond.

  • Can I use my iPhone in europe?

    Can I use my iPhone in Europe?

    Indeed you can. Beware of data roaming, charges, however, where you are charged through the nose for a data connection abroad. Your phone company may sell overseas data plans, or you may consider getting a SIM card for one of the providers of the country you're visiting.
    You can turn off data roaming in Settings --> General --> Network --> Turn Data Roaming to 'off'.

  • Can i use the iphone in Hong Kong?

    Can i use the iphone in Hong Kong?

    You can't use it in Hong Kong with a local carrier if your phone is carrier locked to your current carrier.  No info in your post to detemine whether that's the case.  You can use if you want to pay high roaming charges.

  • File Associations in 2012 R2 RDS Server using Roaming Profiles

    Background Information
    We recently moved from using 2008 R2 RDS servers to 2012 R2 RDS Servers. All of our users
    have roaming profiles. When we migrated from the old terminal servers to the
    new terminal servers, the users got completely new profiles. The only thing
    moved from their old profiles were documents and items on their desktops. We
    have multiple PDF viewers/editors installed on our RDS servers. Mostly due to
    the cost difference between Adobe Acrobat and other, cheaper products that a
    lot of our users can get away with using that don't need the functionality of
    Adobe Acrobat.
    The Problem
    Ever since moving to the new 2012 R2 RDS servers, whenever our users log off terminal
    server, the next time they log in their default PDF Viewer association doesn't
    load, and they have to go through the process of choosing a default PDF viewer.
    This only occurs when there's more than one PDF viewer installed on the server.
    We've tested it with only one PDF viewer program, and the setting remains after
    logging off and back on. The problem we've found is that the registry key that
    houses the default user choice:
    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf\UserChoice
    when set during the session, to Adobe Acrobat 11 for example, reads as such
    inside that registry key. For example, the Progid key will say
    Acrobat.Document.11 and this setting will persist until the user logs off. Upon
    logging off and back on to the terminal servers, if you look at that same
    Progid key, it has been converted in to a Hash value, and the Operating System
    is unable to read the hashed value and determine what that user's default PDF
    Viewer choice is, causing them to have to go through the process of setting it
    again.
    Things we've tried
    We created a GPO that runs a script that exports the registry key upon log off that has
    the non-hashed value, and have it set to import that value on log on. However,
    by default this registry key has the DENY WRITE permission applied to it, so
    when the system tries to import the registry key through the login script it is
    unable to do so. 
    Summary
    This issue only started happening once we moved over to 2012 R2 RDS servers. It only
    occurs for users using Roaming Profiles. It only occurs when we have multiple
    PDF Viewers installed on the servers. Any insight on why this is happening or
    how to resolve it would be greatly appreciated.

    I would use GPP to push the value, 'not hashed'. You can give right to the registry too, so like adding everyone group to that registry branch. (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/library/cc753092.aspx)

  • Can I Use my SKype To Go Number in Different Count...

    Hello, I live in Victoria, BC, Canada and have a skype to go (S2G) number to make international calls from my mobile phone (mainly to the USA).  I will soon be travelling to Maui, HI, USA and am wondering if, while I am in Hawaii, I can still use my S2G number in Hawaii to make local calls to businesses in Hawaii at the low skype rates?  Usually I would not use my phone (it would be left in airplane mode) because of high carrier roaming rates. Does S2G only work on wifi?
    Or is the S2G number only valid when I'm making international calls from Canada to USA?
    I guess I'm still a little confused on how the S2G number works and how rates are charged.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
