ZTE N290 Vivo - No network - GSM-Forum

serjer · 09-07-2010, 13:23

I have no network with simcards (Netherlands). Before unlocking I couldn't test because of simlock from ViVo.

Can I do something?

Thanks.

Hi,

As I know, Vivo is not an European network operator (but maybe I am wrong).
Are you sure that this phone support European band (800/1900) ?
Did you tried to make 112/emergency call ? What is the results ?

serjer · 09-08-2010, 12:05

I am unable to call emergency number. I think it's other frequency as you said.

Nothing to do more?

It this phone has another band you can try to flash it with similar files, but it will be at your own risk !

1. make full flash backup for emergency case
2. try to flash phone with ZTE-N281 or Vodafone-547 files (it's similar firmware types)
But I repeat: I can not promise anything !!!

if you will flash it - pls post here your results.

hi,is possible convert N280 850/1900 for 900/1800 Mhz?

cartuchobahia · 04-09-2011, 20:49

It's a joke from Vivo Brazil. All the other operators of Brazil are 900/1800, vivo is the only one with 850/1900. And they sell a phone with 2 sim slots only 850/1900...

did anyone ever try to convert one of these to 900/1800 with the N281 Firmware?
