I got it from ebay and I wanted the unlocked exynos version G970F/DS. It's very fast compared to my previous S7. Can't compare it with the SD version.Kareem wrote Off topic, the US version is SD855 not Exynos. Not sure if you got it from Amazon but I had a note10+ with Exynos and it totally sucks. The SD855 is much smoother in every aspect.

Hey guys, is there any way to check whether the esim IMEI is whitelisted or blacklisted?
I tried calling alfa on 111 but they have a strike those days...
Any alternative method?
Thanks

A friend of mine bought an iPhone X from Lebanon. No IMEI blacklist, customs paid etc.xazbrat wroteI saw this earlier---send a blank sms to 1014.ironman wroteHey guys, is there any way to check whether the esim IMEI is whitelisted or blacklisted?

When she travelled to the US, it turns out the IMEI is blacklisted in the US and would not work (it was stolen).
So our IMEI database is just local I guess.
Yeah--that's a different issue. I guess if you buy a phone here and go to the states, you can use https://stolenphonechecker.org/spc/index.jsp, and I am sure that the EU probably has its own too site too The market here isn't very regulated so black/grey market goods have a way of making it here.jsaade wroteA friend of mine bought an iPhone X from Lebanon.

The customs fees for a Samsung Galaxy S10e 128GB are 167,000 LBP
I have had the Mi 9t for a while now, and I can confirm too that also happened to me. This is one of the perks of Lebanese being clueless in the world on smartphones.bobo619 wroteI have a oneplus 7 pro and i can confirm that you do receive the 90 days sms but when i send an empty sms to 1014 the countdown stopped at 31 days left for 2 weeks nowTheIlluminative wroteI want to buy One Plus 6T as I am in Dubai and they have it for $320 which is a great price.

Is this law still in effect? I've heard from people who have iPhones and Samsungs and other mainstream devices that after the 90 days their phones still worked just fine. Has anyone actually experienced their phones being barred from the network after the 90 days?

My brother s iphone stopped at 31 days for a while now
Does the 90-day limitation reset every year? I got my phone from abroad and started using it late October. The 90 days are supposed to expire in late January 2020. Will I get new 90 days starting 1 Jan 2020?
The sms states it is 90 days per year and not sure if it is since the day of activation or if it resets Jan 1.

So, any idea if the Jomrok thing still being applied to new phones bought outside of Lebanon? I'm considering buying a new phone for a family member from France.
