Samsung N150 - can mine be unlocked for used with Chuang Hwa Telecomm's prepaid data service

The netbook is marketed as global ready, and has a SIM slot.
I have owned this for about a year.
Next month, I plan to travel to Taiwan.  Chuang Hwa telecomm has a prepaid 3G data plan 500NT$ for 7 days that seems to be a very good deal.
Question is if the netbook (or the Gobi chip) needs a unlock code to use with a foreign SIM.
Does any one know?  
Better yet, has anyone used Chunghwa's prepaid data plan?

Hello alin43:
Yes, that 3G prepaid data plan does sound like a good deal!  When using another carrier's 3G SIM, you must first unlock your global device.  If your device and line of service qualifies for the Unlock, this would be handled by Verizon Wireless Global Support Team.  They can be reached M - F 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM Eastern Time at 800-711-8300.
Let us know if this answers your question, and well wishes on your trip next month!

  • Can i buy an iPhone at a pawn shop and get it unlocked for use with Straight Talk wireless?

    Just wondering if I can buy a used iphone at a pawn shop or on ebay and get it unlocked for use with the prepaid Straight Talk wireless service? If so, how much would it cost to get it unlocked?

    PHones can only be unlocked from the carrier; if you're looking for an unlocked device I'd recommand buying it directly from Apple as that is the only way to promise it is, if you buy it second hand you may find it is locked to a carrier who doesn't support unlocking, or worst yet activation lock

  • I have a company Ipad that belonged to a deceased employee. no access to his icloud or appleID. how can I restore it for use with a new apple ID

    I have a company Ipad that belonged to a deceased employee. no access to his icloud or appleID. how can I restore it for use with a new apple ID?
    The apple ID was his personal account and can no longer gain access. Im sure I can get purchase recipts from the accounting department if needed. I tried to put the Ipad in restore mode and used itunes to "recover" the ipad but it still wont let me in because he registered the device with the "lost iphone" feature or whatever that is.

    Activation Lock in iOS 7  >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
    If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.

  • How can I get my old iPhone 5 (Verizon) unlocked for use with another carrier?

    I have an iPhone 5 that was purchased with a Verizon Wireless account.  It is more than two years old and I have since upgraded it to a newer iPhone.  I want to give this phone to a friend in Germany.  His service will provide a new sim, if the phone is unlocked.  How can I get it unlocked so that it is no longer limited only to Verizon Wireless?

        Good afternoon Weth!  That is completely correct. All 4G phones are already unlocked for global use. If you contact your international carrier and insert their sim card, it will be ready to activate on the international network. If you have any questions regarding the compatibility of the international network, please reach out to them directly. If you have any further questions, please let us know. Thanks so much and safe travels to you!

  • Can FieldPoint be configured for use with 4 wire temperature sensors?

    I would like to build a fieldpoint-based measurement system that is configured to accept 4 wire type low temperature sensors, pressure sensors, and several 4 wire (100ma) magnetic hall sensors.  Each 4 wire temperature and magnetic hall sensor will require a stable current source (20ma -100ma range).   We need to be able to synchronously read up to 8 sensors.  Under certain circumstances we would like update rates up to 50 Hz (0.02 seconds) on all 8 channels.  We currently have FieldPoint products, such as FP-1001 modules (RS-485 Network Interface), FP AI-110 modules (8 channel, 16 bit analog input), FP-RTD-122 modules (8 channel RTD input), FP-RLY-420 modules (SPST Relay), FP-TB-1 (36 screw terminal, Universal Terminal Base), NI-SCC-68 (68 pin Terminal Block with 4SCC expansion slots), PCI-8431 (RS-485 Serial 2 Channel Card), and other FP modules on hand that we would like to use in this experiment design if possible.  I would like more information on the NI FP-RTD-124, (4 wire, 8 ch., 16 bit RTD input module) regarding use with platinum RTDs and low level/low temperature signals, and maximum refresh rates.  Thanks for your help,
    LGF    

    Hi LGF.  FP-RTD-124 info is here: (c)FP-RTD-124 manual.
    The range of the -124 on the low end is -200C; we use it to -196C with 100 ohm Platinum sensors with good results.
    The update rate, ~ 1S, however, is not going to meet your requirements. Can your temperatures really change that rapidly?
    The excitation is fixed at 2mA x 135 mS with a period of 1S.  Fine for an RTD, don't know about your Hall sensors.
    Your AI-110 module can be configured to read the Hall sensors with external excitation but the maximum update rate is 0.173S.
    Hope that helps.
    Matt

  • Is my phone unlocked for use with another carrier

    I want to change carriers but continue to use my iPhone.  My contract is done so I need to know if my phone is unlocked.  I can't afford Verizon anymore and the service where I live sucks.

    We need to know what iPhone and what carrier you are planning to go to To give you an accurate answer. 

  • Does anyone know where I can get some images for use with Titler Pro 3?

    I am really just trying to get some effects like honeycomb or different color washes for reflections.  Maybe explosions.  They are all put to use from a image if I am not mistaken, new to Titler Pro 3.

    That is not an Adobe program... ask the company that sells that program... NewBlueFX | Best-selling, easy-to-use video editing plugins

  • Can an iMac monitor for use with a windows computer

    I have software that MUST run on a Windows PC ... it definitely won't run with VMFusion.  I can buy a Cheap PC, but screen quality and size.  Is there a way to use my iMac (Intel based) monitor and hook it to a PC?

    You could buy a vga adapter http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB572Z/A, as long as you can plug it in, the display will work on any computer (If it only worked with mac osx, boot camp would be useless).

    I spend 5 months in Florida and 7 months in Ontario, Canada. Can a Verizon Samsung Note ll be unlocked and used with a sim card from another carrier in Ontario?

    Yes, you should be able to use a local SIM card from a carrier in Ontario. You should not have to do anything prior to doing so.

  • Can tata photon plus be used with apple i pad mini for internet access

    can tata photon plus be used with apple i pad mini for internet access?

    No, you will not be able to use a wired connection. If you have a iPad wifi, it can be used only with a wifi and if you have a iPad wifi+cellular, it can be used with both wifi and 2G/3G and 4G.

  • Unlocked old iPhone 3GS for use with pay as you go sim in the UK on vacation. O2 sim works while ph plugged in.  Unplugged, works short time and crashes.  Sometimes won't even re-boot.  Software on phone up to date as far as 3GS goes.

    I brought an old IPhone 3GS to the UK on vacation for use with sim card.  I had the phone unlocked with approval and instructions from ATT.  Store in the UK recommended O2 pay as you go sim which works as long as the phone remains plugged into the wall.  Once unplugged, it will work for a short time and then always crashes.  Sometimes it will re-boot and crash again and sometimes it will not re-boot at all.  One store told me to sync with itunes which I did on my Mac Book.  I don't know if the sim is defective or if the software of the 3GS is just not compatible with the sim when on the battery.  I have updated the software on the phone as far as it will go.  Any suggestions?  Maybe the phone is too old to use with the latest pay as you go sim cards.  I am disappointed that this phone has not been reliable as a pay as you go and I have had to purchase a UK phone here in order to have a reliable phone.

    There is nothing you can do. You bought an illegally unlocked phone off Ebay. A lot of sellers there will tell you it is unlocked but the first time you try to update the operating system it will put the lock back on to the carrier the phone was originally locked to. Sorry but unless the carrier it was locked to will unlock the phone I am afraid you have a very expensive paper weight now. You should have bought it from a reputable dealer instead of ebay.

  • Do i need to reformat a samsung m3 for using with a macbook pro

    Hello
    Do i need to reformat a new samsung m3 for using with a macbook pro?
    I have an old bipra which i use and i just remember literally plugging it in and going.
    thanks for any info.

    I don't know about your particular configuration but usually Disk Utility not recognizing a drive means the drive/card is history.  My G4 running OSX 10.4.11 will format SD cards.
    I don't know your model computer. Is this one with a SD slot built in?  If it is, do you have an external reader, or can you try another card in this slot to see if it is a slot problem?

  • Min max lot size time based for use with SNP and PPDS

    Hi all, Is there anyway to set up time based min and max lot sizes? ie we want to have a Max lot size which is small for use with the first 3 months of our plan which starts life in SNP and then converts to PPDS and into blocks for block planning, but months 4 to 36 we want to leave as large max lot sizes as there is no need to have the small max lot sizes for the different horizon.
    As far as I can see there is only a material/plant lot size  and Max lot size and no way to have a different setting in a different time period.
    Thanks

    Hi John,
    As you know, in the product master, the lot size maintenance is time-independent, so that obviously can not be used for your scenario. As per my understanding, to meet this using standard functionality, you can maintain multiple product specific t-lanes (for STRs) and PDSs (planned orders) with required lot size ranges and validity dates (for short or long term horizon). But, again since the validity of t-lanes and PDSs will not be automatically rolling forward so the updating the validities will be a challenge.
    The other option could be to enhance the heuristic functionality at lot size selection step while creating order.
