Many phone settings are automatically configured by your
smartphone when you insert a SIM card. The device will communicate
with your provider and automatically obtain all necessary settings,
such as network name, voice mail and text message center numbers.
You can also view and modify these settings manually through the

your roaming charges. Check with your home service provider for the
network offering the most competitive rates at your destination.

mail and the text message service center numbers.
