Guest ithappens Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 Hey all, I just purchased an unlocked i320n, Awesome phone, but I put my AT&T SIM card in it, and it won't pick up my service. I live in Boston. I was wondering if there were network settings I have to change, if there are, I can't find them. Please help! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please help! :D http://wiki.modaco.com/index.php/Samsung_i320 GSM/GPRS/EDGE 900/1800/1900 AT&T's network is made up of fragments from other's networks that they have absorbed so they have a mix of GSM850 and GSM1900 bands. http://www.gsmworld.com/roaming/gsminfo/cou_us.shtml You may find Boston has AT&T on GSM850 :-( Call AT&T and ask. If so this phone will never work in your area. Where did you buy it? Can you take it back and swop it for an i607 seeing as you like the formfactor? The i607 was supplied by Cingular / AT&T so will work fine. M.S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CompUSA were clearing out i320 for $149 not that long ago so don't know what you'd get :-( http://www.modaco.com/content/samsung-i320...ervice-compusa/ M.S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
