How can I check if my phone is CDMA or GSM?
Check your carrier. If it's not Verizon, it's GSM.

I am moving to mexico soon,
I was wondering if there is a way to unlock my INC to work on any provider in mexico.
I need to know what companies this would work for, and what method i need to use to make this happen.
what cdma carriers are in Mexico and are they able to flash it so you can actually use your phone with all the features. If not, you can't

Here's a list of CDMA bands/carriers in Mexio. I think you'd have to find their ppp settings etc., and manually provision your phone in epst.

Yes, you can use your DInc. Right now i'm using mine with Iusacell (CDMA carrier for Mexico); i bought in US (from Verizon) but I can use it here at Mexico.
Don't sweat, it'll be stolen soon anyways so if it doesn't... HAHA! Jokes on them!

Yes you can use it with iusacell. You will have to do the configuration.

R800a, R800at, R800i, R800x, Z1i ???
PLUS, are there any others I'm missing here??
thanks
r800a is the version sold by most countries in America.
r800at is the version sold by AT&T (carrier in USA).
r800x is the version sold by Verizon (carrier in USA).
r800i is the international version and is sold in the rest of the world.
I don't know about Z1i, never heard of it.
ok, thanks
Z1i sounds like an xperia arc model not a play.

Z1i is the version sold by China Unicom.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Gal...l-core-/200739106754?_trksid=p1468660.m200036 it is a good price IMO, but the description says it is 3g. Will it work, or will I screw myself by buying it.
That's a GSM model. Considering it says "unlocked" and "GSM" in the description...
i9250 will NOT work on Verizon. You need i515.

GSM Model was released overseas about a month before VZ's cdma.

The GSM model is "plummeting" worldwide. Phones get cheap 4+ months after they're for sale. Not a huge demand for it either honestly.

This is incorrect. Verizon uses CDMA and ATT uses GSM. The phones are not compatible.

^ this
but you can actually change from GSM to CDMA from your *#197328640# (stock 4.1.1) but not sure if that'd work
but for the most cases, reason to unlock AT&T S3 is to use it for T-Mobile ;p

The Verizon "sim" card is only to get Verizon's LTE network. Its useless on ATT/TMobile

^ this. Flashing any Verizon modems, ROMs, ect can lead to a paperweight. The phone has different hardware that allows it to operate on a GSM network and will not allow it to run on a CDMA network. You would have to get a Verizon phone to work on Verizon or go to a different network. T-Mobile for instance accepts att sim cards (with reduced functionality due to different frequencies, but at least you can still use the phone)
