Verizon Galaxy Tab use in India?

Hi,
I have recently asked a friend in the US to buy a Samsung Galaxy Tab (verizon) for me.
Its a contract device locked for a year with Verizon. I have a few question...
1. Wat connectivity options can I use in India?
2. Can I unlock it? How?
please help.
Thanks

I am in India for work for the next 2 months, and have a Verizon tab, only I am not locked into a contract... I would love to know this as well... I suspended my number for now and have been running only on wifi since I got here, but having a data connection would be amazing for me while I'm in Bombay...

I wanna use it in India not only as a wifi device but use a data plan too...
please help...
need to know wat all i need to do to get started...
root it?
deactivate VZW?
Unlock?
custom rom?
please help....

Verstion SGT is CDMA based, so finding good operator for data plan is difficult in india. Tata indicom and RIL is your bet but dont know about their data plan.
For other help regarding rooting, custom Roms, refer SGT development section.

Any Info on the Solution
One of my friends sent me Verizon Galaxy tab and I cannot use it in India. I can't return it as well because the return period is already over!!!
Is there a way I can make the Galaxy Tab P1000-7"inch tablet work in India on Reliance or TATA???
PLEASE HELP ME
Thanks in advance

A quick fix

steps to follow

note : network unlock remains even after flashing as /efs is not cleared
Be happy , press thanks

[Q] To update or not to update (SIM unlocked)

Hello, devs! I am new to this forums (officially a noob) and I'll be getting my Atrix HD (AT&T) in about a week. The thing is I don't want to experience any problems as I don't live in the US and it'll be quite a pain to have it shipped there. So I need to make sure if the following is a risk or not

Hey there everyone!
I bought my Atrix HD unlocked from eBay, it all worked fine until yesterday a message from AT&T came to my phone saying there was an update. installed it and now my phone is locked!
I spoke on the phone to a customer service representative and he said that the contract Motorola has with AT&T doesn't allow them to give unlock codes (?) and that I should try calling in a month or two.
Is there anything else I could try before buying an unlock code online?? Please help

As seen here
Anyone experiencing similar problems?

Live in Germany.
Got mit AHD (At&t) yesterday and updated it today.
Takes about 10 mins.
You can update it without any sim-card!!! And the phone/wlan and everything runs already without sim card!:good:
Never saw this before!
So i bought the unlock code after the update right now.
The screen for unlocking is there.
Waiting for the code!:good:

I have already ordered from ebay and now i have the same question .
will any OTA update make it locked again ?
if yes then if i request the seller for the unlock code , will the same code that was used to originally unlock the device , can be used subsequently after any update ?
ps : i live in india

Using an OTA will not affect your sim unlock.
It might affect root and ur bootloader but not sim unlocking. I have done it several times on this and other motorola android (atrixes) phones.

[Q] how to root with Android 4.4.2 Brasil retail with bootloader blocked ?

Hi friends, I cant unlock my bootloader because the motorola site has a problem. Everytime that I try to login with my moto ID or google+ acount, it show me an error.
However, I want to get root on my motoX.

Thank you

Keep trying. The moto site can be glitchy.
There isn't another way to get full root. There is a "partial-root" method that does not give write access to /system, and is lost upon reboot. See the PIE thread for more details.
You -really- want to unlock the BL. Perhaps try another computer on the moto unlock site?

[Q] Verizon LG G2 VS980 in other country

Hi,
I just purchased this phone last week and using it in my country . I searched these forums but did not get the required response on my below queries.
1. Can I update my phone with the latest update through Verizon Desktop Software Assistant in my country? If yes, will my unlocked phone become a locked or there is a way out? MY phones's current version is VS98024A.
2. Can I flash my phone VS980 with an International version ROM of LG G2 (D802)?
3. Can I use tethering on my phone if I remain on my current version VS98024A?
Your help in this regard will highly be appreciated.

you can flash (download method) VS98026A, root it, put recovery, and there is patch for Hotspot (also for 24A).

I lived in Asia, ota will not happen if you are outside us, but you can update it with verizon software assistant.
Make sure your phone is stock or rooted if you update it. Do not install cwm or twrp when your update or it will stuck in bootloop.

Same here.. I used verizon upgrade assistant.. it gets photo informational .. then nothing .. just a moving object through wire from laptop to cellphone on the upgrade agent and nothing happens.. so i think buying Verizon LG G2 might be a mistake in Pakistan :crying:
