BSNL Provide EVDO In SIM

Recommended Posts

:previous:

All latest chipsets from Qualcomm by default has OMH support inbuilt.

It's just a matter of enabling this function by handset manufacturers.

Irrespective of whether other global operators go for OMH or not , OMH is the future and it can't be reversed.

@abhlove1984 Which Data card are you using now

:previous:

From whr u got this?

Which city? which circle?

How is network strength?

does Wap/internrt works?

wat is cost?

u can check it's omh or not by inserting in any omh hanset like corby/metro/lg 6300/510.

i got it frm Pali(Rajasthan Circle).

network is very good.

it is omh evdo enabled ruim.

it cost 39/- rs for ruim with 10/- rs balence.

i check evdo from this ruim with my ruim enabled evdo data card.

Nice to see, BSNL started OMH EVDO RUIM in market.

How is speed of EVDO??? post review.

Also post picture of RUIM showing OMH logo

i am useng bsnl data card zte8700 which i make it Ruim suportable.

this ruim not having any OMH logo it same like bsnl 3g gsm sim with blue color.

evdo speed is very good in my concern(avg download speed 130 KBPS) but in prepaid teriff is very high 0.05/100kb.

Hi, I was really thrilled to hear that BSNL is foraying into CDMA market with EVDO enabled RUIM which can be used for both data and voice in the pre-paid scheme. But sadly the customer care in Trivandrum and Cochin don't know anything about this till date. Whenever i enqire about this all they know is about 3G sims. What a pity!!

Does anyone in Kerala know about the availability of BSNL RUIM? How is the coverage of BSNL CDMA in Kerala? Thanks in advance!! :signthankspin:

I think prepaid EVDO is not yet launched in BSNL Kerala, at least not in Trivandrum. BSNL CDMA coverage is fine and EVDO coverage is expanding. However EVDO Rev.A is still not fully launched; it is Rev.0 in Trivandrum as of now.

In yet another surprising move, BSNL has introduced different data plans for EVDO prepaid.

Fantastic Fantastic Fantastic

:Contento::Contento::Contento:

:clap: :clap: :clap:

500 MB --> Rs. 150

1 GB --> Rs. 250

2.5 GB --> Rs. 500

Unlimited --> Rs. 750

The above rates are cheaper than their own postpaid rates...........

Why on earth they're not advertising such pro-consumer moves widely?

I got the BSNL CDMA RUIM from Salem, Tamilnadu by paying Rs.39. When I had inserted the RUIM in my Samsung Corby Speed it is showing the 1x signal bar along with the evdo signal bar, but when I try to connect it through my laptop the dialer reply is "Modem is not responding".

Also I am able to make voice calls from the mobile.

Any Rimwebians / EVDO gurus please help me in this.

Let us know whether you've "OMH" logo (Diamond) on the RUIM?

No there is no "OMH" Logo (Diamond) on the RUIM but still able to get the EVDO signal.

The following is just my opinion, I request OMH experts in the forum to correct me if I'm wrong.

"EVDO signal bar in the Samsung Corpy Speed will show up if any type of RUIM(either OMH or non-OMH) is inserted and the corresponding operator has EVDO coverage. But EVDO will work only if the OMH RUIM is inserted"

No, OMH RUIM has two PRL (Known as concocted PRL) one is 1X and another is EVDO, so based on network it gets authenticated it will show network signals. Purpose of concocted PRL is to conserve battery.

Dear friends

one of my cousin is having evdo data card supplied by the BSNL.He has disconnected the connection. Can we use the prepaid ruim supplied by bsnl in that data card.

Anybody has any idea whether the ruims are available in Andhra Pradesh. When I enquired in Nellore they have shown me blank faces and they are saying no such ruims.

Regards

Babulu

Did they launch CDMA service in all the circles?? There is not a word about it, as usual with BSNL. Would like to try them out if they are providing EVDO in ruim.
