The Sidekick phone is traditionally 'locked', which means the phone can only be used by one specific carrier. Many people unlock their phones to allow use with the provider of their choosing. These phones are often sold on eBay.

Will SideKick 3 Work in England or Will it take an English sim and work in England then?
If the Sidekick 3 is already unlocked, then it would take English SIM cards. If it's not then you cannot use it on different carriers other than the one it's currently on. However, only the phone and text is guaranteed to work, not the data since Sidekick phones have special data plans that is supported by no one else but T Mobile. Regular data plans do not work for Sidekick phones.

Can you use any unlocked sidekick with boost mobile?
If the unlocked phone is an IDEN network phone then yes. If the unlocked phone is a GSM phone, meaning it was previously locked to a GSM carrier (i.e. AT&T, T Mobile) then it would not work on Boost Mobile as this carrier uses a different technology, which is not compatible with GSM based phones.
I put my SIM card into your sidekick slide but it does not read the SIM card?
First, you would need to unlock the Sidekick. And make sure that the SIM card you're using is GSM-based. Now, once the Sidekick is unlocked, then you can use the phone for calling and texting only. You may not be able to use the data on your phone even if you register the phone for a data plan. Sidekick phones have special data plans that only T Mobile can support.
