(i bought the phone here in the US while on vacation and i wanted to try it out)

That means your phone is locked...

you will need to unlock your phone in order for it to work with your carrier..


i think i know what your next question will be: "how do i unlock my phone?"

you can take it in into an independent cell phone shop, they usually unlocked them for about $20...good luck.

Folks, it also helps to post who your service provider is and location to get a general idea of what can be done....see my profile?

thanks big help

no problem...
you can also try a remote unlock via the internet, never used them but for some reason i just feel better about going into a cell phone shop.
