I am trying to use it in Korea via a local carrier.
I have gone through all the tests and passed which means it can be used in Korea, technically.
A representative of this local carrier said it can be used once the country lock is removed and I must call verizon to remove it.
I couldn't call because i am outside U.S. but had a chat with verizon's representative, telling me she doesn't have any information about galaxy nexus's country lock code. She also said this device might not have country lock, but she was not sure about it. She wanted me to call global service office to make sure, however, I cannot make a phone call here.
A local carrier's representative said many of devices from U.S. have country lock, but not all of them.
He was not 100% sure since this device is from U.S. but he thought galaxy nexus does not have a country lock.
Many people are telling me it doesn't have country lock, but I just want to make sure.
And, if the country lock does not exist in this device, or if I unlock it, would it be possible not only to use CDMA but LTE also?
CDMA only refers to voice/sms but no 3G network right?
if neither 3G nor 4G is available, I would just have to buy a new device for this country...
Thanks!
