cell phone reprogram?

[Guest]

Hi,

 

 

 

I will be in Thailand for 3 weeks and need to be reachable 24/7 from home. I have the Ericsson T28. Can anyone give me the address of a reliable place where I could get it reprogrammed for AIS? And...will I be able to use it again back home?

 

 

 

Other possibility: buy a cheap used thai network compatible GSM. Any address for that as well?

 

 

 

Thanks for your help.

The T 28 World works in Thailand....Now, Does your home provider have a GSM service. When I get off the palne I just simply turn my phone on, off and on again and I get a log in with AIS Thai. I remember that you can the T28 World can be programed for auto search or manual select. If you can't find it I still have a T28 World in my desk. I changed over to the Sam Sung N105 because the T28 is a bit on the old side Tech wise, but so am I!

Since you already have the phone you and you intend to by the card why don't you try Settings->Networks->Select Networks. You should get a list of networks and it will be indicated if you can register on a particular network.

The thing is I don't want to use my national network SIM card because they

 

will charge me too much for making and receiving calls. So I want to buy a

 

pre-paid SIM Thai card when I'm there, but I have read that those cards can

 

only be used with GSM purshased in Thailand. In some place, it is possible

 

to unlock/reprogram the GSM for Thai SIM card compatibility.

I read many posts recommending MBK. If you look around, prices are approx. THB 500.
