Leave your phone at home, back up all the important data you need into a server. Keep all important information and documents you need for the trip printed on a paper.

Go through border without a phone, buy new phone and SIM abroad to avoid roaming. Access/download your important info through the internet using the hotel's wifi.

After the trip you can bring the phone home and it will only contain some holiday photos.
