Kalaichelvi 14 Report post Posted May 9, 2014 Thats a great news for me bro... Any hardware number in particular i have to ask for ? ... Micro sim means, i need to get the new Micro Sims which RIL provide or cut the old for data ? At one place i was ready to sacrifice cdma data also , as i badly want to switch to BB ...

Sent from my Q10 using Tapatalk BSNL cdma may not work as i believe the sim is not OMH. Try with RIL or MTS sim cards i hope you may get lucky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my LG-LS980 using Tapatalk I have heard that its works but I got the phone on the new OS itself and on that it was not working. I did not downgrade the OS to check whether RUIM supports data or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kalaichelvi 14 Report post Posted June 24, 2014 Guys, I got the data working on Reliance CDMA with my Q10. You need to do some modifications in E SCREEN to make the data running. How to access Escreen : http://crackberry.com/how-access-engineering-screen-blackberry-10 once you are in the Escreen windows. Go To General RadioEnabled Rat : CDMA!X+EVDO. Hybrid Preference : ON Hybrid Preference Status : CDMA+HDR. APN: vzwinternet Set Auto data : ON. This will help in getting the data up. You will see 3G and 1X. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
