Can I use any SoftBank cellphone in canada?

I really want the SoftBank 922SH pearl pink Canada. I'm with telus right now. I don't care if I must use another sotfbank cellphone!!!



Okay you have to use Fido... Since there are no Sofbank in Canada... I wish there was lmao... Since most features are blocked and you just need the basics... Call Text... because that's what japanese phones can allow you to do... So fido is the best choice.





Since Japanese phones are Triband 900/1800/1900


You are better off with fido anyways since in 2004 they run only on 1900 before rogers bought them...





Mind you that you have to be in City areas where you will get good 1900 coverage... even in the city you will lose signal quite often...





Unlocking is another issue since sometimes people can only unlock the voice and not the text... I'm not sure about that...





Most people unlock using TurboSIM or HYPERsim... which is a thin sim card placed underneath the actual simcards with the metal receptors touching eachother... This randomizes carrier information therefore phone can't tell if it's a foreign carrier for the lock to block out.





Japanese phones are just the pretty... they're not really meant to be used elsewhere so it can be quite troublesome...





Plus when you loose signal you have to stick your sim card to a phone to pickup signal... then quickly stick it back into your japanese phone... Phone CPR lol.




Good for you. Do it then. Get the telephone that you like and use it in Canada.





Did you know that softbank used to be Vodafone, which used to be


J-phone?
