^^^ I agree with you fully. My NGage QD has a measly 4MB phone memory but the contacts and SMS store is fabulous, almost unlimited. And my 6265 has 24MB phone memory, but the contacts store is only 500*5 and the SMS store is only 90 plus 10 templates that you can delete. Absurd, isn't it? Did RCOM and TATA pay off Nokia for such things or is Nokia fully responsible for this sorry state of affairs? And yes, no compatibility with PCSuite for SMS's also on my 6265.

seems to be a good competitor to LG RD 3000 if it is also available on RCOM. I thought that Samsung were trying to sell in the open market, their CDMA handsets irrespective of operators. Does this handset qualify for open market or only Tata?

^^^ Even then no Shine for us. It looks really sexy.

Yes, in menu-help-my location, it is clearly stated that this feature is not supported on our phones.

Good news for us fence sitters!!!! We will have the best of both the worlds...

wow!!!! All the above apply only to GSM or even to CDMA? ADA needs to improve CDMA network services also. What say?

Use dynamic std lock facility of bsnl or install an epabx system. No other phone afaik is available that can help in your case...I may be wrong...only lg fwp's have this type of facility...you can also try with beetel or bpl for your specific requirements.

As usual Airtel would be very costly. Lets wait and see what BSNL/MTNL will offer. Hope they at least come out with 8mbps speeds.

^^^ Thanks honest for the news. I d/l it on my 6265 and it works beautifully

^^^ It works well but you cannot download anything. Only for browsing...

Its high time RCOM came out with some specific solution to this problem, now. All other operators have backup facilities on their websites/servers for contacts and SMSs for some nominal fees. Hope RCOM replicates this facility.

@kshah, thanks for the info. But will Yulong's products work with our RCOM? Some of their dual mode models are awesome.

Four zeros is the default pin code. If you have not changed it. Try it.

God save you and us from RCOM. Even if they want to or are able to, they will not help you out. Try your luck by sending an email to corporate center.

@kshah, the website you have provided, shows the dual mode, dual sim phone model as 728. Maybe this is what PS is referring to here? or some other model? Even themobilestore.in does not have any mention of any Coolpad models. BTW, coolpad site also shows one 3G EVDO data card with a data speed of 2.4mbps...

Email to corporate center and tell them you want a RUIM card for your number as you have bought a open market handset. They will surely guide you in this matter. You are 100% right that RCOM's WWs do not sell RUIM separately. Try your luck and report here your success/failures.

Nothing can be done with this problem. If you come across any solutions, please share with us. Till then, enjoy Nokia and RCOM's strategy of punishing loyal customers.

@cmahendra, are you reading what I am reading? a complaint against your beloved Airtel!!!!????. Try to solve manish's problem. ha ha hee hee, just joking, man. It is not just Airtel - even BSNL/MTNL, Aircel, RCOM, Vodafone, Idea - all have some problems or the other. We are only here to highlight our problems and share it with others so as to enable a solution.

DoT set to make peace offer to GSM lobby 30 Nov, 2007, 0117 hrs IST,Joji Thomas Philip, TNN NEW DELHI: The department of telecom (DoT) is learnt to have prepared a settlement offer for GSM players, in a bid to resolve the stand-off over the new spectrum allocation norms and end all litigation over the new telecom policy. According to an internal note of DoT, the seven-point compromise formula involves accepting telecom regulator Trai’s recommendation that existing service providers increase their subscriber base between two to six times before being granted additional spectrum (radio frequencies on which mobile services operate). This is far less stringent than the Telecom Engineering Centre’s recommendation that the subscriber density should be hiked 4-15 times. DoT has added another sweetener: operators will not be asked to surrender any part of the already-allocated spectrum although the enhanced subscriber density norm would render part of the allocated spectrum excess. However, no fresh spectrum will be allotted until they fulfil the eligibility criteria specified by Trai. The settlement package also involves operators like Vodafone, Idea and Aircel being awarded 4.4 MHz of spectrum to launch operations in new circles, operators being allowed to offer services on both GSM and CDMA platforms under the same licence, and two new entrants being given licences in each circle to launch services. Besides, it states that auction of 3G spectrum will be conducted within the next 90 days and mobile number portability extended across the country, not just the metros as announced initially. Currently, Aircel holds licences for 14 circles, Idea for two and Vodafone for six, but they have not been able to launch services as 2G spectrum has not been allocated. The compromise formula, while addressing this issue, also states that the new licence applications of ‘existing GSM’ players will also be approved. This implies, the applications of Idea Cellular and Spice, which have sought new licences in nine and 20 telecom circles, respectively, will be cleared. Besides, GSM players must drop all objections to the use of cross-over technology, thus paving the way for players like Reliance Communications, HFCL, Shyam and Tatas to launch GSM-based mobile services. The settlement solution also envisages that two new entrants be granted licences based on spectrum availability. Under the existing policy, licences are awarded on a first-come-first-served basis, and the queue of new entrants is headed by Swiss-based Bycell followed by Swan and Cheetah (both are linked to Reliance Communications), S Tel and Parsvnath Developers. Significantly, the compromise formula also addresses two key concerns of GSM operators with regard to number portability and auctioning of 3G spectrum. “Mobile number portability (MNP) to be allowed across India and not just the four metros, direction for unlocking CDMA handsets to allow CDMA customers to move to other operators be given, road map for number portability for fixed line also be announced,” states the DoT’s internal note. GSM operators had been demanding that MNP be extended across the country while adding that the same be extended to fixedlines also. With regard to 3G spectrum, the compromise is that DoT will drop its initial plan to restrict it to just three GSM-based operators with each getting 10 MHz each. “3G auction to be conducted within the next 90 days. The announcement to be made right away—6 licences of 5 MHz each,” the DoT note added. While 5 MHz will make it impossible for a new player to enter the telecom market as it will require additional start-up spectrum, it will be enough for existing GSM players to migrate to 3G. If the government limits allotment of spectrum to 5 MHz, it will effectively rule out foreign players from 3G spectrum bidding and ensure that foreign players can bid only in theory. Indian telcos, both CDMA and GSM players, have been bitterly opposed to the entry of foreign players in 3G. They have even written to DoT threatening legal action if new players are allowed to participate in the auction. Link Courtesy: http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/News/N...219,curpg-1.cms

Ask CMO for a replacement or a refund of your money. They will give it. Send a email to CMO and a cc to LG also for faster effect.

works perfectly fine for me on both my computers as well as on my Nokia 6265 whenever I press,"View New Posts". And best of all, it updates perfectly across all my systems. No trouble on this score for me. The RSS feeds also lists out all new posts perfectly well across my 2 comps and my Nokia 6265.

whoa!!!! ali. simply too good.... keep posting such stuff

^^^ The above is only a seasonal offer which will expire in think around 6th January 2007. Maybe they will continue the offer for Pongal also. And the above Offer AFAIK is All India level. Also check chennai.bsnl.co.in for more info.

Thanks ramchi, for your inputs.

Hi All, I want a S60 phone - my budget is around 8k to 10k. BT, Expandable memory, MP3, decent camera, etc are my requirements. Any suggestions? Can I go in for SE/Moto? Does the sis apps work on a SE/Moto? Or do we get alternate apps which can work on SE/Moto? TIA.
