Hi there folks. :) I'm new at this site and I really need some help or suggestions. I bought a Docomo Foma P900iV. It's the one Cloud uses in the final fantasy advent children movie. The problem with this phone is that the United States doesn't have any network service for it here. I went to a whole bunch of companies such as cingular, verizon, sprint, cricket etc. you name it, but None were compatible. I found out that the phone needs to be unlocked so it can be used in the United States. Well, everyone I asked said it was impossible. But like they say, nothing is impossible. There has to be a way! Does anyone know?
Not sure it can be used here.
Its the network and signal..

As I know you can not unlock docomo phone. Please try to get a vodafone(softbank)phone.
