Those China phones basically don't work in the West generally. My colleagues in the office have had the same issue while visiting US and UK respectively with their Techno phones |

That's true. We got my mum Tecno Z3 last year December and she travelled to Atlanta, USA march this year. The Tecno didn't work at all and my sister was angry why I bought my mom a bad phone. Maybe not all Tecno but Z3 didn't work out there, they had to get her a ZTE phone immediately and Samsung later on. |

That Tecno phone can never work. Had the same issues you have to get a new phone. Now this is a warning to people that waste money to buy Tecno phones . Tecno is only for Nigeria Technology 1 Like |

blessingsonflee: Rubbish statement. Incase you don't know, there is some thing called Band, always check a carrier frequency and if it is compatible with the phone you are buying. I have been in that quagmire before 1 Like |

juwanno: My Glo sim didn't work on any of my phones for almost a year (I'm talking of the Nexus 6P, S6 Edge +(Tmobile), Xperia Z Ultra, XZ Premium, several Lumia, etc.), and even on the phone I used it with in Naija (Nexus 6P), so I just turned off the phone and left in in the drawer. However, when I turned on the phone a couple of months ago, it was working. I tried it on my other phones and got the same result. My MTN sim always works. I've also been told that the Glo sim doesn't work/roam everywhere, even within the same city in the States. So it's not about the quality of the phone you have. Lots of people in the west can't afford big brand phones. You can simply check out where buyers of Chinese phones are from on Aliexpress. 2 Likes |

Re: Help!!! All Techno Phones Not Working In Usa by practicalclass: 8:28am On Dec 17, 2017 |
My L7 works fine. Check your roaming settings. Then search again a couple of times. Make sure you are in an area with good At&t and tmobile network ( though this should not matter, as other networks should show after auto search but would say forbidden or unable to connect if not allowed to roam with nigerian networks |
Re: Help!!! All Techno Phones Not Working In Usa by ponpon(m): 8:39am On Dec 17, 2017 |
It works , I use my Tecno C8 here, put your phone on 2G unless if it is 4G enabled. |

You are very right OP! Same with my phantom |
Re: Help!!! All Techno Phones Not Working In Usa by adecz: 8:49am On Dec 17, 2017 |
The standards in America are Samsung, Motorola® or Apple®.. Full blooded 'Chincos' do not connect well, since the American Networks won't recognize dem. Just like when you want to watch or play all these pirated CDs in 9ja, don't use a Philip® Grundig® or other reputable DVD players, because the can't recognize the plate & will be saying, "no disc". But use Chinko DVD, e go even play empty CDs. Thank God for chinkos. Back to dey matter, just buy any reputable brand with a temporary contract. 1 Like |
