I think, GSM/GPRS Tri-Band 850/1900/1800 cell doesn't work in Nepal because Nepal use European std which is 900/1800 frequency band. Among this, 900 MHz is for GSM and 1800MHz is for CDMA phones. In 900 MHz GSM, 935 to 960 Mhz for downlink and 890 to 915 Mhz for uplink which is totally different from 850 MHz GSM where 824 to 849 MHz for uplink and 869 to 894 MHz for downlink.

Technicall, I say these cells doesn't work in Nepal. Both NTC and mero mobile do have 1800Mhz but this type of network planning is common in all place. e.g In some places where both NTC and mero mobile only use 850Mhz. So, when you take your cell in such places, probably your cell doesn't work.       I am only talking technical aspects, I don't have practical experince in this issue.
