Has anyone ever heard of a modern mobile phone not having a GSM frequency/ band?
My girlfriend went to Europe and will be there for 3 weeks. Before she left we were trying to coordinate a schedule for phone calls but later she said she called Sprint and they told her that her phone didn't have a GSM frequency. I thought that was odd being that she has a smart phone (I guess that's what it's called, it's touch screen and gets internet blah blah blah). The thing is I have a cheap Verizon wireless flip phone (with the cheapest plan available) and when I went to ecuador last year I was still able to call/ text to friends and family in the US. I'm not really techno savvy, but it seems weird that modern phones wouldn't have a GSM band as a standard. The weirder thing is that I got an email from her today and she happened to mention that her boss called her. Shouldn't a lack of GSM frequency prevent calls from either end?
You were roaming on one of equador's CDMA networks, that is why you were able to make calls while over there. Only 5% of CDMA phones (Sprint and Verizon) are World phones (ex. BlackBerry 8830, 9530, 9550, 9630, HTC Touch Pro 2, Imagio), which have SIM card slots.
