Is it possible to use iphone4s bought in another country in US?

Hi I'm currently in Korea, and planning to stay here for 5 months. I need a phone in Korea and what i thought I could do is I can buy iphone4s here and use for 5 months, and after 5 months, take it to US and use it in US with verizonwireless line (which I currently have but temporarily stopped because i'm not using it for 5months, and plus, I lost my iphone4 so I'm trying to buy it in korea and take it to US). But what I heard is I can't use it with verizonwireless like regular iphones that we use in US. 
Please answer my question. Thank you!!

A phone purchased in Korea would likely be a GSM phone. This won't work on the Verizon Wireless network since it uses CDMA for its voice network. A GSM phone will work on a GSM network here in the USA. How well will depend on the radio frequencies of the phone.

  • Possible to use ZFS export from another server to boot/load LDOM?

    Have a T1000 with 2 72GB disks, configured as a RAID mirror in firmware, so there's not a lot of available local disk space.
    Would like to know if it's possible to use a ZFS volume exported to the base system, to build an LDOM?
    Assumes that we upgrade the T1000 to the 10/08 release that supports ZFS for boot devices.
    If it's not likely to succeed using exported ZFS volumes, will it work for an exported disk or slice?
    Want to use sorage available from an X4500 to ensure ldoms have enough space to live happily in.

    Yes, you can use a ZFS volume as a backend for an LDom.
    Chapter 5 of the LDoms Admin Guide has some good detail.
    http://docs.sun.com/source/820-4894-10/chapter5.html
    "The virtual disk backend can be a physical disk, a physical disk slice, a file, a volume from a volume management framework,
    such as the Zettabyte File System (ZFS), Solaris Volume Manager (SVM), Veritas Volume Manager (VxVM), or any disk pseudo
    device accessible from the service domain."
    You don't explicitly need the ZFS boot support in Solaris 10 10/08 (S10U6) as the LDoms support is independent of that - support
    for LDoms devices booting off a ZFS volume was added to the LDoms drivers in Solaris 10 5/08 (S10U5).
    So you could do the following.
    zfs create -V 10G ldoms/domain/test/zdisk0
    ldm add-vdsdev /dev/zvol/dsk/ldoms/domain/test/zdisk0 zdisk0@primary-vds0
    ldm add-vdisk zdisk0 zdisk0@primary-vds0 ldg1
    An then install Solaris on the guest domain using UFS as the root filesystem
    [or ZFS if you install Solaris 10 10/08 (S10U6)]

    They cannot be used outside of the country of origin and without a valid account in that country.

  • Using Nokia Music in another country, i.e. Music S...

    Hello Nokia,
    I am currently using Nokia Lumia 920 that I bought from UAE and now using in India. My Nokia ccount is set to India and my phone region is also India. Unfortunately, for me, I could not access Nokia Music Store and Mix Radio etc. services. When I launch the app, these options show for a while and then disappear. I know it's because I am accessing it in another country. I don't want to know why it is impossible for a user to access the Music Store in another country, rather I want Nokia to come up with a solution for people who buy their phones from another region (for various reasons) and then use it somewhere else. I don't have a Nokia Music Unlimited subscription, I just want to browse Music from the Store and buy it if I like. Further, I want Nokia Mix Radio. Please, fix this thing. I am leaving my country for my studies, so I'll be in a different region for the next few years. Does this mean I have to buy a new phone whenever I move? This is just impossible. I hope I get some positive response on this. Please don't give me links to other similar posts, I have read them all and they're of no help.
    Thanks.
    Nokia Lumia 920

    Think you already got a satisfactory explanation in another thread (not posting the link) as your post there-in suggests. This being a Peer-to-Peer Forum there is nothing more that you can get here officially from Nokia. You need to use any channel thru' THIS link to get an Official response from Nokia .

  • Is it possible to use Itunes from a different country?

    I am currently using itunes music store in ireland but i want to use the itunes music store in the UK.Is it possible to do this and if so, how?

    A - no, except:
    In order to buy from a certain country's iTMS, you do need
    either: a CC with a billing address in that country
    or: an address in that country plus a prepaid card/gift voucher issued by iTMS in that country.
    If you don't meet one of this conditions, there is no solution for you.
    -sorry but the copyright holders wanted it that way.

  • HT5012 Why can't I use my iPhone in another country

    I bought my iphone5s in UK with a T-mobile sim in it and came back to Nigeria my home town. To use the iPhone 5s in Nigeria, using a Nigerian SIM card (MTN), it then refuse to activate the phone. It sent a message saying carrier server not supported...

    Usually this is done with a phone call. It will be up to you to learn how to call the UK from Nigeria.

    Is it possible to buy an iphone 4s in the states and take it back to europe for use?

    Remember that the warranty on iPhones is not international. Should
    problems develop that require repair/replacement, you will have to ship
    iPhone back to friend/relative in US for them to get to Apple for repair
    and friend/relative will have to ship back to you. All related shipping
    and insurance costs are your responsibility. Apple US will not accept
    shipments from other countries not will Apple US ship repaired/replaced
    iPhones back to an address outside the US.
    You are better off buying from Apple in your country or from an authorized
    provider.

  • Giftcard bought in another country/do you need a credit Card?

    Hi,
    I recieved two £15 iTunes gift cards from relavtives in the UK. My account is an Irish one. I try to make a new account but must I give more credit card details to make this new account. alternatively I tried to change my current account in a "United Kingdom" account but then I get promted to re-enter credit card details. I don't have a credit card because I'm only 16. so my two questions are:
    * Must you have a credit card to create an i-tunes account???
    * Is there any way to make the gift card work on my Irish account when it was bought in the UK???
    Thanks in advance,
    Harry HT

    +Is there any way to make the gift card work on my Irish account when it was bought in the UK???+
    Unfortunately, no. You might as well give them back to your UK relatives.
    From the gift card FAQ:
    +Gift certificates and gift cards purchased on the iTunes Store are valid for use only in the country in which they were purchased.+

  • ITunes Match won't recognize albums bought in another country as purchased

    Hi all,
    momentarely I'm quite dissapoibted with iTunes match.
    I have a library with 26k titles - over 2'700 bought in iTunes, the rest is my digitalized CD-Library or bough via amazon.
    in 2010 I moved from germany to switzerland and changed the country in iTunes - the ID is the same.
    Now it seems that all my purchases in the german iTunes store aren't recognized by match as purchase.
    correct would it look like this:
         26'783  total
    -       2'752   purchased in iTunes
    =    24'031atch (clearly under the stupid 25k limit)
    how iTunes calculates:
         26'783  total
    -        702  recognized as purchase by iTunes-match
    =   26'063  to match (over the stupid 25k limit)
    I contacted iTunes-support.
    I told them my suspicion that it may be related to the move, she said that it wouldn't matter only to correct this statement after a couple of weeks.
    After a month she wrote me that this is a fact and is not be seen as a problem.
    Pointing out that this is clearly not what was advertised, she answered me:
    "I want to point out, that 25'000 songs are a fair amount and I suggest to renew your songs, and exchange older ones with new ones."
    I find that answer for a represantive of af a music download store quite arrogant, and told her that I now would like to speak to her Teamleader, which she denied with the comment, that she is as high as it gets.
    Has anyone else experienced something like this or an idea how to solve this?
    cheers
    Erik

    There is no neat solution, this is how iTunes Match operates.
    One work around would be to export on CD and re-import (for the purchases) and to re-rip for existing CDs - it will work but is time consuming.

  • Replacing an iphone bought in another country

    HI,
    I have bought my iphone in singapore, while I live in India. The service centre here says that only the country that the phone has been bought in can service it.
    The phone is in warranty. How do I activate this service? Tried to contact a premium re-seller suggested by apple support, but they refuse to accept a mail in warranty. My phone's battery is giving major trouble and the only way it can stay on is with an external jacket charger.
    Please help.
    Thanks

    You will have to take it back to Singapore.  The iPhone warranty has never been international - it has always been specific to the country the phone was originally sold in.

  • Using the charger in another country.

    I bought my MBP in Hong Kong. I'm about to go back to Canada. i was wondering if the charger is able to switch voltages on its own without the help of an adapter.

    All that's needed is an adapter so the plug fits the outlet. The MBP's power adapter runs on 100-240 V an d 50 or 60 Hz, so it works worldwide.

  • IPhone 4 repairing [ bought in another country ]

    "I bought iphone 4 when i was in china [ paid 400 RMB for extended warranty too !! ] thinking that Apple has International warranty .. "
    That's your error.  Not Apple's.
    Can anybody tell me the logic behind this ? This is very sad to hear..
    The logic is irrelevant.  It's Apple's policy, pure and simple.
    1 ) Once i go back to india how will i get my phone fixed if it runs into any trouble ?
    You'll have to send it back to someone in China to get it repaired.
    2 ) As i know apple will not fix a broken part.. They give replacements.. Is this true ?
    Depends on the part.  Some parts are indeed repaired.
    Dear Apple Team ,
