Hi,
I just ordered a HTC One V from the States (says it's Virgin Prepaid phone) and i'm from South Africa.
My question is, can I unlock it and will it work on Vodacom (Vodafone) network?
And is there a name for the Stock HTC One V Rom from HTC?
Many thanks.
If its from virgin mobile in the us its a CDMA phone. And Vodafone uses GSM all over the world as far as I know so no that won't work, it will only be able to be used as an iPod touch like device.

The one you will get from Australia will have Optus Crap.

It will work as long as it's unlocked.
Optus branded units are network unlocked, so no issues. I've heard a few reports where the optus apps don't kick in if it's never activated on the optus network, so you might not even see the worst of the spam on there.

Yes it will work on AT&T. I just picked mine up today from Optus. Fully unlocked out of the box and running on Telstra (850mhz like AT&T) with no Optus bloatware.

Anybody have any experience with this? Like any issues with getting 3g/4g data mms etc?

If you have an unlocked at&t One X(L) you should better ask there, as we can only speculate here
But straight Talk uses at&t's network (right?) so it should work.

I don't have one, I am thinking of buying one but want to make sure before I sell my verizon 4s and buy a one x that it will work with straight talk.
So you're getting one from at&t?
Then head over to the at&t and Rogers One X forums, because we have the international One X here.
If you get the international One X and sraight talk uses at&t's network it should work, because some users here use at&t and zedomax got a video of his One X running fine with at&t.

I was looking at the coverage map and it looks terrible for android users. is it really that spotty?
I am sorry about the noob question, but I was wondering if the International One X would work with my AT&T SIM card?
Thank you,

Yes with no limitations other then that the international one had no lte but besides that it will work ok just fine on att. Not sure about t mobile USA.

The Virgin Mobile HTC One V is CDMA, not GSM and doesn't take a sim card. You will not be able to use it on a GSM network. Sorry.

There are guys on here from the US like droidit, and they have the international tegra so I guess it must work fine. Maybe pm him.

The International HOX is fully quad-band that supports ALL the same frequencies as the OneXL (AT&T OneX) EXCEPT the LTE bands.
It will work without issue anywhere in the US.
