No of course not, don't worry! The DOS is referring to the potential import of electrical equipment, not programmes on a mobile phone. You are not going to be asked to declare what options you have on your phone! Pretty much the entire population of SPb and Moscow will have there own mobile and many of them may be 3G. Whether your mobile is GSM enabled to pick up a signal in Russia may be another issue though!
