Sim free Z10 purchase from UK to be used in Pakistan

Hello I am from Pakistan and am currently in UK. I want to buy a Z10 from here which i will use back home. Some questions please. 1. Can i use the sim free phone with my mobile operator in pakistan, without a hassle. Last thing i want is I buy the phone, and it doesnt work back home 2. Carphone warehouse is providing a 2 year warranty. Is this an international warranty? There is no blackberry shop in Pakistan but there are in Dubai. If required, will the Dubai shops recognize this warranty? 3. A bit on the technical aspect... With the OS 10.2, has the Z10 able to bury most, if not all of the criticisms that it received when it first launched last year? Thank you in advance for your help. Regards

Blackberry Z10 are global ready handsets, u can use it easily. Firsy of all go to setting and then tap to security option again tap in sim card. See if device network is not locked to spcific carrier thhen it must be unlocked. And unlocked handsets are ready to use anywhere including pakistan. But the warranty remains. Only in UK.

  • I am from Nepal and want to buy unlocked sim free iphone 5s from USA. So will it work in Nepal?

    I want to buy sim free iphone 5s from USA. So can I be able to use it here in Nepal with either of NCELL or NTC network?

    Any unlocked iPhone should work as a GSM phone anywhere in the world. However, iPhones have additional features that will not work on networks that are not partners with Apple. The features that may not work  include:
    iTunes store and App Store
    Visual Voicemail (almost certainly will not work)
    LTE networks
    3G networks
    iMessage
    FaceTime
    MMS
    GameCenter
    Your Apple warranty will not be honored outside of the country of purchase. You may or may not be able to get services to fix it for a fee; I don't know if independent repair shops in Nepal can handle the iPhone. I do know that they cannot get official Apple replacement parts, so any parts that are needed will be gray market.
    You might be be better off getting a phone in India; at least getting repairs and warranty service won't require traveling back to the US.

  • Can i buy a sim free iphone 5s from a apple retail store ?

    Can i buy a sim free iphone 5s from a apple retail store in nyc or is it exclusively avaliable online ?

    You can buy it at an Apple store. But you do not want "SIM Free", which means that you can use it with any carrier, but the phone becomes locked permanently to the first carrier you use it with. You want to be clear that you want an "UNLOCKED" phone. Apple does not sell SIM Free phones, but some independent dealers (such as Carphone Warehouse in the UK) do.
    Also, note that if you plan to use it outside of the US you will not have warranty or repair service available for it; Apple will only fix phones (in or out of warranty) in the country of purchase. And it may not work on LTE (4G) networks outside of North America.

  • Why can't I make a purchase from my new IPod using a new credit card which is different from the one registered with my apple account ?

    Why can't I make a purchase from my new IPod using a new credit card which is different from the one I have registered with iTunes before ?

    You can only use one credit card to one Apple ID.

  • IF we buy a contract free iphone 6 from US can we use it in india with airtel or reliance providers?

    IF we buy a contract free iphone 6 from US can we use it in india with airtel or reliance providers?

    The Model 1586 / 1524 happens to be the one most compatible with China
    http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/
    If the phone is primarily for use in China - I would look to getting an unlocked version of that
    There are contradicting theories about Sprint for international use - so I would stay away from the Sprint model in the US

  • Carrier free iPhone 6 Plus purchased from US Apple website use in Malaysia

    Can a carrier free iPhone 6 Plus purchased from US Apple website be used in Malaysia? I see that I have the option to purchase an iPhone 6 Plus without signing with the US carrier, since I won't be using the phone in the US. I'm going to bring it to Malaysia. So is the phone from Apple site already unlocked?

    I'm not aware of a difference between SIM free and unlocked.
    If the iPhone 6 is available for sale as unlocked at an Apple retail store in Japan, an unlocked iPhone can be used with any carrier's SIM card.

    If you live in the UK and a problem develops that requires an exchange under warranty, you would need to return to Japan for the exchange.

  • HT1933 My younger sibling was playing my Sims Free and Purchased something for $20.99, but it come up with error, but is on my recent purchases.. Also what she purchased hasnt even come? Can i be refunded?

    My younger sibling was playing my Sims Free Play and Purchased something for $20.99 by accident, but it come up with error and the money has not yet be debited from my account and is on my recent purchases so im expecting the money to come out any minute.. Also what she purchased hasnt even come? Can i be refunded?

    I'm sorry, but your sister, unless she had already turned on the "Find my iPhone" feature and the person who took the phone has not disabled it, is out of luck. She should report the theft to local police authorities, including the serial number of her iPhone. While her experience is unfortunate, there are good reasons why Apple cannot do anything else about it.
    I hope she gets her phone back.
    Best of luck.

  • Z10 purchased from BlackBerry shipping w/ OS 10.2?

    Are Z10 purchased directly from BlackBerry shipping with OS 10.2 Installed?  Since the update just came out that may or may not be the case.  Anyone know?  Thanks. 

    I thought they came out with 10.2 I guess I was mistaken simply give them call when the new OS will be coming out.

  • If i buy a sim-free iphone 5s in America, can i use it in China with a Chinese sim card?

    i've bought a sim-free iphone 5s  in apple store in America but i am worried that i cannot use it with a Chinese sim card. Can someone help me?
    Thank you very much!

    The iPhone is sold as "unlocked and contract-free" when purchasing that option from the Apple Store, though Apple's verbiage is using "unlocked" and "SIM-free" rather interchangeably:
    The unlocked iPhone includes all the features of iPhone but without a wireless contract commitment. You can activate and use the unlocked iPhone on the supported GSM wireless network of your choice, such as AT&T or T-Mobile in the United States. The unlocked iPhone will not work with CDMA-based carriers, including Sprint and Verizon Wireless.
    If you don’t want a multiyear service contract, or if you prefer to use a local carrier when traveling abroad, the unlocked iPhone is the best choice. If you choose T-Mobile, your iPhone comes with a T-Mobile SIM card already installed. You will need to contact T-Mobile or visit an Apple Retail Store to activate your iPhone.
    Otherwise, the unlocked iPhone does not come with a micro-SIM card for iPhone 4s, or a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5c or iPhone 5s so you’ll need to get one from any supported GSM carrier worldwide. To start using your iPhone, simply insert the SIM card into the slot and turn on iPhone by pressing and holding the On/Off button for a few seconds. Then follow the onscreen instructions to set up your iPhone.
    Purchasing an unlocked iPhone means you will not qualify for the lower iPhone price associated with a contract. The unlocked iPhone 5c model is A1532 (GSM). The unlocked iPhone 5s model is A1533 (GSM).
    To help decide whether the locked or unlocked option is right for you, compare wireless service plans. Or call our iPhone Specialists at 1-800-MY-APPLE.
    Be aware that if you purchase an iPhone in the US, that will be the only place you will get support from Apple should you need it. You will not get any support for a US-sold iPhone in China.
    Regards.

  • How do I return a SIM activation Kit purchased from the Verizon Store?

    I purchased a SIM Activation Kit from your online store and even though the web site said it would work with my phone it didn't.  I called support 3 times and they were unable to activate the SIM.   
    I need to return the kit.
    I called Customer Service and they told me I am unable to return it because I am not a Verizon customer?  Please advise how I can return this I do not have a Verizon Store Nearby. The packing slip said go to vzw.com/printlabel , but it asks for a Wireless number.  I don't have a Verizon number because I was never able to activate the Card.  

        l!m!t,
    Thank you very much for that information. If the kit was purchased online you will need to call our Internet Orders Team for assistance with this return. You can reach them at 1-866-338-7390. They are open from 8AM - 5PM Monday through Friday and I'm sure they can assist you with this return.

  • How to distinguish 100% 4S sim free (never locked) from a blocked?

    I can not buy iphone 4s in the official store, so I'll have to buy a phone, which was brought from another country. I'm afraid to buy a phone that is locked to the operator and it will not work after some time.
      If I insert in new iphone 4S my sim card and it will activate it and will catch the network, does that mean that it is not blocked in the future, such as update version IOS?
    (there are reports about the phones 4S, tied to the operators, but mistakenly working with all sim cards. there it is mentioned that in the future, these phones will be blocked)
    PS:
    I apologize for the error - translated from the tips online translator

    Well, if you can't purchase an iPhone from an official source that sells officially unlocked iPhones, you take your chances. Many who go this route end up with hacked iPhones & nothing but grief. Good luck, because there is no way to distinguish between a hacked iPhone & one from an official source just by looking at it.

  • Is the update free for purchases from 3rd parties from now on?

    I want to get a Touch before the weekend and will be ordering from Amazon (better price in the UK). Will I get the new apps for free as the order is being placed after the Macworld announcement?
    Thanks.

    Drop your existing copy of iPhoto in the trash, don't empty it yet. Go to your purchases list in the Mac App Store and download a new copy, it will be current.

  • Transfer APs (free and purchased) from computer to IPAD

    I have downloaded purchased and free APs to my computer. I am trying to sync to IPAD. I connect IPAD and Computer, I Tunes screen, select Device (IPAD) and check new aps and hit Apply however syncing does not transfer??

    Are you using the most recent versions of iTunes for the PC and iOS for the iPad? If not, update to the resent software.
    Restart the PC. Reset the iPad by pressing and holding the Home and Power buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power off slider, until the Apple logo appears. Then try to sync.

  • Can ipad 4, purchased from the States be used in Singapore?

    I am planning to purchase a ipad 4 (Wifi + Cellular)  from the states, to singapore. Wondering if it supports the local teleco Microsim, such as Singtel. Or if  "Unlocking" of the ipad is required, before it can be used in SG?

    I am sure WiFi and 3G will work.
    You can check the Singapore specs here with those from the States:
