How do you make calls in Brazil with a US cellphone? My at&t plan allows me to use my phone there, but they have no clue what you need to dial.

I remember in the past something about using the 2 digit code for the operadora. I think the phone there behaves like a brazilian phone?

So I need to know how to I dial a US phone number, and a Brazilian phone number.

Your help will be much appreciated! Thanks!
To direct call from your mobile phone to Brazil just key +55 plus area code and telephone number. Generally to make the "+" character you either key * twice quickly for Nokia and for other phone makers you generally hold the 0 key and it will turn into a + character. With GSM you can use the "+" character to complete all calls. To call US numbers just key +1 + area code + telephone number.
