Hey 👋

With Phone (2a) there is an international version and a India SIM only version. For the international version you shouldn’t experience any issues, although it’s always a good idea to check that your network bands are supported for the best experience.

With the India SIM only model, you will need to activate first using a India SIM on a India network. You will then be able to use in other regions.

Derren , I tried using my Roaming indian sim, but not working !!!

The message on the box ‘India sim only’ is confusing. To me, it means that a non-indian sim would never work in the device. If that’s true, it is annoying!

VineathK As Chris and Derren explained a few posts earlier. You only need to activate the Phone with an Indian Sim for the very first time. After that you are able to use the phone with any sim as long as you don’t do a factory reset.

Kastello Great. That’s a relief. I’m not sure why anyone would put such a sentence in block letters on the box that is misleading.

I want to purchase in India, but I want to use that with US SIM card in USA. Does it wok in USA with US SIM card? If required I can do initial phone setup in USA.

murali383 Indian units need to be setup initially on an Indian SIM in India. Post that, you can take it to US and use US sim

arpan2308 Thank you for responding quickly. But does it work without any issues due to network bands and all, with proper signal strength? Looks like it’s better to buy in US in my case. How can I purchase in US (International Version of Phone 2a)

arpan2308

murali383 always better to buy US version in US. US networks are unique in their own way. Check nothing.tech

I bought this from india and tried to activate the phone via roaming indian sim, but not wotrking !!

Derren

R_WasikChowdhury I believe it has to be local non-roaming

I bought a Nothing phone 2A from India last week and returned to Bangladesh yesterday. Today, when I tried to use my new phone, it asked for an Indian SIM card to authenticate. I have an Indian roaming SIM, but it keeps asking for the same message “Use a valid Indian Sim Card”. I cannot go back to India. What will be the solution?

R_WasikChowdhury Please contact support using this link for further assistance.

Daniel I did this. Meanwhile, can you assure me if it’s possible to unlock remotely? It says “Indian SIM only,” which I already have, but it doesn’t mention that it won’t work while roaming. This is really absurd.

R_WasikChowdhury

Derren so what is the alternative way ? I can not go back to India right now.
