:'( nice one! But whts the current avl length of the cable?

wht does this mean?? Hope u know tht u got to reboot the phone after uploading the new ringtone! how on earth did u get a error of CALL List while replacing ringtones! Elaborate more! And restart ur phone and PC and let us know if it works now!

You guys post too much.... By the time i am checking out the new posts, i see more and more ppl have posted more n more new posts.... Its been quite a few hrs that i've been reading posts at rimweb.com and i've still not finished reading all the new ones! :'( Thanks for all this lively support...

Sun, do u realise, where u r posting wht?? :'( jus keep a check on that. and in case u think the post u made was not proper, feel free to use the delete button next to ur post and delete it. And in case u dont know wht to do, post the moderator and ask him to help u out! As far as wht Capri mentioned in his last post, i saw this glitch in my sister's handset. Wht i did to avoid this was to change the entry no. of the stored mobile no. That solved the problem. But the problem is truly severe. Can someone tell me the latest s/w no. for Samsung N191?

I'd be more interested in knowing how do u activate it again to normal! Coz i rem delisting my no. from RIM Dir, and found that i could never enlist it again! hehee...

hmm.. interesting idea! But y cant we permanently add words to the existing T9 dictionary? Is there any way to tweak it thru bitpim! lol... over imagination! I know it cant be done :'(

didn't get u? Anyways, i see all those applications coming onto R-World in the near future! would be so much fun using them! Kudos to REL !

I was told tht the warranty was for 1 yr for my charger. I aint sure abt the phone! I created a topic for Handset Warranty and i wish someone here will come to my help!

but LG phone is undoubtedly more hackable than its Samsung counterpart !! hehee

Well, i've merged both ur topics "amc" coz they r both on the same lines, and basically its for selecting the right kind of handset for R-Connect. umm... i'ven't ever used R-connect specifically. But i wud rather suggest u to look into deeper aspects than to jus select the right handset. Handset is definitely an imp thing... but look at it this way. Firstly, u need to identify ur usage pattern. Meaning, would u be using ur phone, as a mobile or more for R-Connect and hence as a landline! Most ppl fail to establish this fact, and then complain of huge bills. If u r really goin to use ur phone at one location and hence more for R-Connect, the best and the cheapest option would really be LG Fixed Wireless Phone(FWP). The R-Connect rates are drastically low here and the call rates are also very low compared to the present Postpaid or Prepaid tariffs. Check here for tariffs and Internet access charges of FWP. If at all u r sure on being really "mobile" and hence wanna go for a Rel Mobile, then the problem(maybe its coincidental) at rimweb.com is Statistics show that we have plenty of LG users as opposed to Nokia users. Hence u might end up with a biased view in favour of LG here. Have u checked up Samsung users as well? NIKET uses Samsung for R-Connect and maybe he can put his views here abt the handset and R-Connect for himself. Apart from that, PREPAID is definitely expensive for R-Connect, but if u r goin for POSTPAID, u might invariably end up with huge bills in the range of 1000-1500 (if u r using ur phone for calling as well as Internet). The amt i am stating here is a regular amt which ppl who are medium R-Connect and call users. To be sure on ur pockets and whether u wud be able to spend the right amt on it, i would suggest not jus to look at the "entry" issues of R-Connect. Meaning, dont pay much attention to how much will the handset cost and all, rather take keen interest in a comprehensive understanding of ur usage! Say u would be using R-Connect for 5 hrs a day. Calculate the charges for the month and rem to add Rs. 200/- for R-Connect rentals as well... and accordingly u'll be able to understand how much dent is this venture goin to have on ur pocket each month! phew.... ! Hope this much helps... Any more info on the handsets, our techies r all here to help u out ! And maybe u could personally visit a RWW and request them to have u try a LG and Nokia Handset for R-Connect at their WW! If tht happens, nothing like it!

Wht he meant was tht one of us cud dl his wallpaper frm here and send it to him as an MMS which he could store.... is tht really possible?

Well i thot i shud just simply pen down my experience today at Rel WebWorld coz this was the time i was goin to a webworld after almost 5-6 months! Since i was wid a frnd so we went to an ORANGE(HUTCH) shop(outlet) too... Well it so happened, that my frnd's dad wanted a new mobile since he had lost his earlier one. He felt rather than spendin money for a new one, he can go for a Rel connection tht wud give him a handset n a connection both. And moreover he had heard enuf of its low rates too... So my frnd and myself went to the closest RWW at Khar(Mumbai). Well due to lack of space and high real estate market i guess, no webworlds in Mumbai tend to have more than 3 service desks(except for the LowerParel(main) one which has some 10 desks). Well i say, these 3 desks are less only becoz of the shear huge no. of its customers... No doubt the waiting time was some 10 mins to get across to a desk but there was an in-house coffee shop (JAVA GREEN) in the webworld n hence it wasn't so painful to wait! All that i read at the forum everyday abt billing problems etc etc... was all there on ppl's faces right in front of me... and sad faces of customers for billing errors and to add on sader faces of the cust care reps for the slow server and tht they hardly had any answers for all the queries... our turn came n we wanted to purchase a colour handset to which we were told that colour handsets are "out of stock" and on inquiring when it wud be avl, they said it wud be avl maybe by month end or next month!! (Nice strategy to push the camera phones )... Adding to this the cust rep said tht 'maybe' Samsung color handset was out of production. This was news to me!! and LG 7130 was out of stock! After all this my frnd wanted to decide to go for a B/W handset only after consulting her dad... so we walked out... We moved to the ORANGE shop which happened to be close by.. Let me tell u guys.. I am not favoring some company or something... but this is a first hand experience... My frnd wanted to convert her own prepaid to billing coz of the new impressive rates of billing... so here it is... Interestingly, ORANGE had 1 reception desk and some 4 customer desks... u r given a token at the reception desk and asked to wait for ur turn. Well we were told tht the wait wud be 10 mins.. It turned out to be 30 mins... we had to finally leave coz our token no was far frm coming in the next another 30 mins... But we made it a point to collect a billing tariff card so tht next time when we come, we r prepared wid the choice of tariff plan. On our way back, this is wht i noticed in the tariff card, "Every damn stupid service is charged for"... Call conf = Rs. 25 /- .. CLIP = 25-49/- Call Divert = Rs. 25/- VoiceMail - 6/min and etc etc.... Their plan 149 is so expensive. u can compare it wid our RIM Prepaid charges... At the end, i felt we r in such a better position with absolutely low call rates and kinda better service. Other operators too have plenty of problems with their customer and network services. I can clearly see the huge 70 lakh customer base as the only hindrance in RIM's service. And not to forget their Bad Billing system. There are quite some glitches in it... Once they make good of it, we'll be surely at an advantage!! I think this has been just too long a post... But i urge u'll to write ur experiences at RWW and other operator outlets in this thread.... Lets compare ourselves and figure it out...

kewl... if anyone bumps into one such dealer for Phone Covers of colours other than White / Golden... in MUMBAI... pls pls.. post it here, with the location or something... Coz its better to change the cover of my mobile for the time being rather than plunging into a new handset deal... to make it look different and new for my EYES! Let me know for the person in Mumbai.. am sure there'll be plenty here...

wanted to know something ... Does the Unbill Info also include STD charges? am not really sure on this... hence this question.. As far as my bill goes, i still cant view the new bill on the website, but i can see at the unbill info that a bill dated 1st March has been generated! but the bill isn't avl at the RBill section on RBill Applet! Wht could i do?

Something interesting here... but still of no relevance! I wrote to the customer care abt this new Line 1 and Line 2 issue... Surprisingly instead of getting an email in response, they called me up from 02230333333 !! And the dude tries to explain me... heres wht we talked.. RIM: Sir, we recd ur email abt the Line1 / Line2 issue. Actually, Line2 can be used if u have another no. from Reliance on ur handset and then u can switch between two of ur nos. (*as if i never knew this... but i heard it patiently*). Sir, but this facility of having nos. on 1 handset is not yet avl. Once it is avl u shall obtain a new no. and would be able to use Line 1 as well as Line 2. ME: So? RIM: Sir, this is all... as of now u cannot use Line 2! ME: But dude, this was not my question! RIM: Oh.. so can u tell me what more u want to know abt this? ME: I want to know, how come Line 2 is active on my phone, and i am able to use it? And wud there be any difference if i used any of the two? RIM: Oh is it? Can u pls stay on hold, i'll check upon this and get back.... (He goes back .. supposedly checks up and comes back...) RIM: Sir, i've just checked it up, and incase u r able to use Line2, i am not really sure how... but it might just be on for testing purposes. But its always advisable to keep the phone on Line 1! ME: alrite... (I hang up, feeling disgusted n not getting an adequate reply)! damn, they know nothing! lol.... Anyways, am seriously thinking whether, its possible to not get billed if the phone is kept on Line 2 and used! What do u'll have to say? Coz, technically my MDN is associated only with Line1 !! Then...? Just thinking... Comments awaited... Additions... I got a confirmation email as well... lol .. too much of customer service Get me my bill, duds!

VSNL to carry all of BSNL's foreign calls Thomas K Thomas in New Delhi | March 31, 2004 07:39 IST Rediff.com Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd will route all international calls from its 42 million subscribers via the Tata-managed Videsh Sanchar Nigam Ltd. The deal was struck after VSNL matched the Rs 1.69 per minute settlement rate to the United States and United Kingdom offered by Data Access. In the first round of bidding for BSNL's traffic to nine foreign sectors, VSNL had lost out on the crucial US, UK and Middle East sectors. Data Access had emerged the lowest bidder in these sectors, which account for 63 per cent of BSNL's international long-distance traffic. VSNL has charged Rs 6 a minute as the settlement rate since April 2002. Initially, in the first round, VSNL slashed the rate to Rs 2.20 per minute. Now, with the settlement rate coming down to Rs 1.69, consumers can expect a 15-20 per cent drop in international long-distance tariffs. Analysts predict that the cut in the settlement rates from Rs 6 to Rs 1.69 could lead to a Rs 200 crore (Rs 2 billion) fall in revenue for VSNL. BSNL sources said the agreement with VSNL made sense since the two companies had a long-standing relationship. "Given the fact that VSNL is matching the offer made by Data Access, there is no need for us to route our international long-distance traffic through other companies. This also saves us the trouble of establishing new interconnect agreements and points of interconnection with other players," a BSNL executive said. While this is good news for the revenue-sapped VSNL, for rival firm Data Access it rings in bad news. Recently, Data Access's initial public offer was put on hold after the Securities and Exchange Board of India raised queries about it. Of the 110 million minutes of outbound traffic every month from India, BSNL accounts for 80 million minutes. Mahanagar Telephone Nigam Ltd, cellular operators and the other basic players account for 10 million minutes each. Executives in Data Access, however, said the BSNL decision would not have any implication on its bottom line since its current business model was based on international long-distance traffic from private players which account for about 10 million minutes a month. They said the company had garnered 30 per cent of the inbound international long-distance traffic and the revenue projections had been made on the basis of this model. BSNL postpones ILD launch BSNL has pushed back the launch of its international long-distance services by a few weeks because the necessary agreements with international carriers are still not in place. "Discussions are on with international carriers and we will launch our international long-distance services as soon as we finalise an agreement with at least one carrier," a BSNL executive said. The company was scheduled to launch its services on Wednesday.

After reading it over again and looking at it from different angles, i am of the opinion that its actually too early to introduce Number Portability... Its important to stabilise the industry first and later go for such things!

hmm.. i do get bugged sometimes with the SEARCH function... Coz the min no. of characters set for SEARCH were 4... so it doesn't help sometimes. But wht i find interesting there is the several no. of options of searching thru posts and its important to understand wht every search element is about, and am sure we'll reach the right thread!

I guess u are talking abt R-Connect... Thts not free for sure! But if RWorld is free till June, thats a gr8 news!

Reliance Info to make set-top-box redundant RAJESH CHANDRAMOULI TIMES NEWS NETWORK[ SATURDAY, JANUARY 24, 2004 04:59:12 PM ] CHENNAI: Finally the residents of Chennai and South Delhi can heave a sigh of relief due to imposition of conditional access system (CAS). Reliance Infocomm, which stormed the mobile telephony market is now training its guns at the set-top-box (STBs) segment with its ‘NetWay’. Top Reliance Infocomm officials told The Times of India on Saturday that the company was beta testing its STB. “With NetWay, it will be one pipe for all purposes. The pipe will have optical fibres which will carry voice, data, video, chat and games,” Raja Vaidyanathan, COO, Tamil Nadu Circle, Reliance Infocomm said added that the company will launch NetWay in four to five months time. Detailing the course of action, he said, the company will launch ‘Wired’ services by February end. “Across India, we have identified 50,000 to 60,000 buildings of interest (BoI). In Chennai, there will be 6,000 BoIs of which 1,000 will become operational in the first phase,” Vaidyanathan added. A BoI is a building cluster which has significant commercial activity under one roof. Typically major commercial complexes will be called a BoI. “The first phase will see mainly commercial connections. Key BoIs will be wired wherein one conduit will be enough to connect voice, data and video,” he said. The wired-line business for Reliance is being termed as “equally big, if not bigger than mobile business.” “What you are seeing with Reliance Info is just 25 per cent of the services. The balance 75 per cent which includes video, data, gaming, chat and the like will be rolled out in a phased manner,” he added. Srinivasan Padmanabhan, COO, Reliance WebWorld, while inaugurating the Anna Nagar store said that Reliance will have 450 such stores across the country. 250 of these will be in the top 100 cities while the balance will be distributed to “next level” towns.
