Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 WiFi + 4G 64GB X115 Blue - Tips & Tricks

Answer:

Samsung uses a Region Lock to prevent phones from being traded outside the intended region. You can recognise a Samsung smartphone with a Region Lock by the sticker on the box with "EUROPEAN SIM CARD ONLY".

This can cause problems if you want to use a non-European SIM card. Fortunately, it is very easy to solve the region lock. All you have to do is make calls for a total of five minutes with a European SIM card. After that, you can use any SIM card you want in any place you want. So it is important that you do this before you go abroad where you are going to use a foreign SIM card.

The Europe region includes all countries within the EU, plus the following countries: Lichtenstein, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, Albania, Andorra, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia (F.Y.R.O.M.), Monaco, Montenegro, San Marino, Serbia, and Vatican City. So in these countries, you don't have to worry about the region lock.

Some video formats are not playable on your Android tablet. Don't worry, that is because of the software (version) and it can be solved.

For example, you can convert the file to a format that your tablet does support. This can be done with a program on a computer or laptop, after which you can put the file back on your tablet.

Another solution is to download an application, which makes your tablet support many video formats. Download one of the following apps from the Google Play Store:

• MX Player (free)
