dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted August 23, 2007 Hi Guys, I am planning to buy on ebay.com (usa) PPC6700 / HTC Mogul 6800. The phones available there as Verizon Audiovox VX6700/Sprint PCS Vision PPC6700/Sprint Audiovox, Sprint HTC Mogul, Nice Alltel, Audiovox PPC 6700 etc. Now the questions are: 1. Will these phones work on Reliance network after reflashing them with Hetal's AKU and Extended ROM & Radio or not. 2. If yes, then which is the best model out of these to go in for which will work seamlessly. 3. Will HTC Moghul 6800 work after reflashing also or not. Thanks in advance Dhiraj Kaile Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted August 26, 2007 Reliance is realy fleecing us. I am about to import 2 phones from eBay USA, at an average cost of between 100-250 US Dollar (4000-10000 Rupees). And then I will experiment with the technique as told by hetal to make it RUIM enabled. I hope my experiment works. Any other suggestions will be most appreciated.

Can I buy that and enable RUIM? hetal has tried that but i think doesnt work..thats why he has now enabled it to tata..if he cant i doubt anyone can.. u can do that too if ur willing to give up reliance.. dont think u can change to ruim as it needs soldering and all and people still havnt been able to do it anywhere.. unless u can get any threads to that anywhere..so why count on ruim when no one has been able to do it yet..plus a brand new phone might not be ideal for soldering n all.. price seems good at 17 k.. n if u can enable tata sounds good.. but if u are going to change operator only then go for gsm.. why waste time in all these hack n all when u can get similar and better phones in gsm in india for same prices..or even less..

sunny1974 1 Report post Posted September 3, 2007 Thanks Sunny and Hetal, And is there any better plan in TATA than Reliance? I mean the call cost? have u seen the latest wm6 phones in gsm.. they cost around 15-17 with bill and warranty.. u get wm6 with lots of features and without any importing trouble.. if u have to change ur ph no i think that wud be abetter option.. these days cost calls are similar in most phones.. different rates in different circles..the data usage charges for relaince are 10 kb=10 paisa. and the r world or gprs for data only lets u browse and use a few other applications. the total proper interent has been stopped for reliance. u need to use r connet for that which is 40 paisa per minute or use their data plan which u can get on their website. tata is similar to i think.. hetal stopped using reliance because of the same reason they keep withdrawing facilities for their customers.. hetal are u doing all the r & d for tata just because u have already imported the 6800 or beacuse its an hobby? i thought u were going over to gsm for obvious reason?

Anbarasan 0 Report post Posted September 4, 2007 Yes, better I’m planning to get a basic model to hold my reliance number for incoming and use our Airtel CUG for outgoing and Basic internet. Our CUG special rates are as low as 37p/m for both landline and mobile. May be I can buy a GSM PPC. If I go for GSM PPC, UtStarcom 6800 is the best option or any other best model can you point? If we buy UtStarcom GSM PPC this same Redington UtStarcom CDMA people can service it for us if there is any problem? I will be flying to Dubai in a month I might buy a device at a best rate and a latest there. What do you think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No place can beat prices we get in india, anyways if u going GSM go for SYMBIAN 60 Device. Its much better than WIN OS, also u get more third party wares to use with it. Symbian is much used and loved mobile OS in the world. Almost all OS based phones by NOKIA on Symbian. U have very big list to choose from. UTstarcomm make only CDMA PDAs, basically all of them made by company called HTC. Look out for HTC PDAs if at all u going for it. HTC touch is the best option if u going to use it with airtel .

kshah 452 Report post Posted September 5, 2007 GSM has its own advantages as well as disadvantages. I am trying to switch over to GSM since last year and a half but not successful because of 1. VOice quality 2. Data speed 3. Tariffs Though we talk a lot about charges by reliance, GSM operators are big time cheaters. Reliance, tata and BSNL has bet tariffs and most transperant tarrifs. Recently I inquired about 20 connections with airtel, I was surprised to learn about their tarriffs Rental : Rs.178 PM Free TT: 100 minutes (here they say rates are Rs. 1 for M2M and M2LL) 101-300 Mins: 0.30 M2M, 1.00 M2LL 301-500 Mins: 0.5 M2M, 1.00 M2LL 501 min above: 1 for both How stupid these charges are? Where as in reliance it is Rs. 199 PM, 150 Rs. TT free, tariff : 0.50 M2M, 1.00 M2LL, no complications means less chances of cheating. in GSM you get really good handset. But using PDA on GSM (GPRS) means driving ferrari in city. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rs.75 for unlimited national and local sms. Rs.99 to make STD to national mobiles for Rs.1. What do you think about this? but I'm bit new to Airtel will they change this?And Rs.100 to enable a plan known as NOP "Net on Phone" where we can access unlimited WAP sites. This will help me to access Gmail. But what do you think about this plan?
