    Bought A Phone on Amazon

    Thank you. If I take this into a Samsung Service Center, and it was manufactured to work somewhere other than the USA, can they do anything to get it working, or is that a waste of time and energy? I saw in blue "Samsung Store" at the top, and that convinced me this was sold by Samsung. I...
