Hi to all!
I live in Israel and bought a new Nokia 6800 from T-Mobile in the US.
SIM unlock worked fine - it now doesn't reject my SIM. On the other
hand, the phone refuses to identify my (or any other) local network. I
went to the service provider and was told the phones from the US don't
work here (-; must be kidding! My old phone and currect SIM work great
all over Europe.
So what went wrong? How come that this phone accepts my SIM but not a
non-european network?
Thanks a lot for your help!

It is a US phone it only runs on the 850 and 1900 net. I Europe we use 900
and 1800.
