I bought the Verizon Samsung Galaxy J1 prepaid mobile in USA and moved to India. When I insert the Indian SIM, it says SIM not from Verizon wireless. Now, I would like to use a Indian SIM for using the mobile. Please help.

kittu,

Help has arrived! Is this device still active on a pre pay account? If not, was the device previously active on a pre pay account prior to you moving to India? Please share more details so that we can better assist you.

Thank you so much for that information kittu. We want to check a few settings on the device to make sure its set up correctly. If you go into the Settings Menu>Mobile Networks and then under network mode, can you change that to global by chance? Please try those steps and keep us posted on the outcome.
