My daughter and I got brand new phones recently. An S22 and S22 Ultra. Then we went overseas and found an entire page of settings was missing so there was absolutely no way of using our phones without wifi. Thankfully the other half of our family uses iphones or we would have had a really hard time getting around! Anyhow, I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue or has seen an update released to fix? I have to go back overseas in September and won't have the liberty to be phoneless that time. Can't believe a brand new phone could have such a huge flaw!
UPDATE: Our carrier is Verizon. We spent quite bit of time on the phone with their help. The issue was not a matter of turning on service for roaming or anything like that. There was literally a section missing in the settings that would not allow us to connect. We were told it was a common problem with Samsung models S20 and newer so that is why I wanted to come here and ask if anyone had seen a fix or an update. Thanks!
But most phones work worldwide since they are similar frequencies. Odds are if they got it from their carrier its locked so they have to ask the carrier to allow global sims
This is EXACTLY WHY I BUY UNLOCKED DEVICES. One can travel the world and use their own device in any country PROVIDING THEY OBTAIN AN INTERNATIONAL SIM CARD.
Mind you since this pandemic it's hard to travel the world! 😏
