Need understanding of OCONAS travel

[canosgmk]

Hello folks.

You guys helped me tons in showing me the correct threads and stuff when i had my HTC TouchPro. Sense then, the thing died on me (keyboard didn't work and it would recycle every 2 hours).

I bought a HTC Touch Pro 2. Had it for about 8 months, so now I am thinking about installing a new rom and things.

Here is the part I need guidance.

> I am traveling to Germany in two weeks (for work). The phone i bought claims to be 'unlocked and ready to use'. There is a Sprint SIM card in it now. What do i need to do to be able to use the phone in Germany with out spending the stupid $1.50 a min Sprint is telling me I have to do...

> How can i find out if my SIM is unlocked before going overseas?

> If I reflash my ROM, do i have to go though and get the SIM slot unlocked and update the radio??

> Is there anything i should know about that I didn't ask?

I am leaving in two weeks, so i have to pull this stuff together kind of fast

Sorry, i know this has been talked about before, but the search are not pulling up the threads that has the information I need.

Thank you for the help everyone!
