Good then. But, I do not think that phone would have showed tmobile in the USA. It should have showed exactly that. "No service" The 900/1800 band is not used here in the US. All along, the very knowledgeable folks here kept asking you to make sure you check the band, to verify that you are using 850/1900 or do a network search. Had you mentioned the phone model, it would have been obvious right away.
Anyway, good to know you figured it out.

When I returned home to the USA I recall looking & seeing that I had service in Florida also (TMobile). However I am still in Florida & it is still showing "No Service". I am hoping that my phone will work fine when I arrive in Europe.
FYI - It was a cheapo phone I bought in Italy - Motorola C118. GSM 900/1800. Does the job though.
