KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted November 29, 2015 I think for data only purposes these handsets are more than enough [that's why they have tied up with Rcom for csfb based voice calls]. If their own locked proprietary handsets are must for even data [very unlikely], then they can forget about getting high end customers from other established operators, IMHO... sent from my Lenovo Vibe P1 using Tapatalk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ami1 237 Report post Posted November 30, 2015 I have got an Airtel 4G connection and trying to use it on Samsung Galaxy S6 (sprint - SM-G920P) but it never shows 4G - I have tried selecting GSM / UMTS OR LTE / CDMA OR Automatic. Have checked that SIM is 4G capable and 4G service is on. Also added APN (airtelgprs.com and proxy IP and port) as found on the net for airtel 4G, but I only get 3G. Any Gurus care to explain if this model (SM-G920P) will work with airtel 4G ? I also tried with iPhone 6 (A1586) and selected LTE OR 3G but no 4G icon. Neither are the data speeds very good - around 3-4 mbps on S6 & ip6. As per the internet, this model (A1586) should work with Airtel 4G. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ami1 237 Report post Posted November 30, 2015 ^ found this website which seems good to check any phone vs network compatibility: http://willmyphonework.net/ It says SM-G920P will not work with airtel 4G but iPhone 6 (A1586) will work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
commonman 228 Report post Posted November 30, 2015 (edited) ^^ as per this site [ http://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26440 ] the handset supports following bands SM-G920PGSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900,CDMA800 (BC0), CDMA1900 (BC14),UMTS850 (B5), UMTS1900 (B2), UMTS2100 (B1),LTE1900 (B2), LTE1900 (B25), LTE800 (B26),TD-LTE2500 (B41) Airtel 4G is Band 40, so not supported. In fact, it also does not appear to support the Airtel 3G in Kolkata which operates on UMTS 900 band. Edited November 30, 2015 by commonman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sam007 5 Report post Posted December 23, 2015 Hello All: As far as 4g goes I think we have to be careful in purchasing the same, reason being apart from the band support one has to also ensure that the handsets supports VOLTE (voice over lte) to be future proof.Reliance JIo has VOLTE , other carriers might flolow suit. Hence our handsets need to be future proof.LYF handsets support VOLTE. Some handsets do support VOLTE however a software patch is required to enable VOLTE This is just for info , correct me if i am wrong. Sam007 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SUDYEcaZ 67 Report post Posted December 23, 2015 Not many countries have VoLTE. as a consumer for most for it really does not matter if Voice call goes via 2/3/4G For countries where VoLTE is offered it is restricted to selected handsets only(Mostly iPhone/Samsung and few operator provided phones) Airtel/Idea/Voda are in no hurry to offer VoLTE 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To add to it, no one else has rolled out VoLTE in the scale that RJIO will be doing - even VZW uses CDMA as their primary voice carrier till now though they are moving it over to VoLTE in phases. People looking for LTE data need not stop their purchases - if you must buy a VoLTE supporting phone however then buy a S6 or ip6 etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SUDYEcaZ 67 Report post Posted December 24, 2015 What would be the best handset for using RJio for Data and RCDMA for voice and data fallback where RJio dont work. Wait for couple of months if you are looking to get a new handset. If urgent you can look for any handset which support 4G on 2300/1800/850/800 Jio has yet to announce the service and one really does not know if the fallback will be GSM or CDMA of RCOM Even RCOM is looking to launch 4g on 800 Mhz, which may mean moving EVDO/CDMA customers or drop is quality of service With talks about 3 way merge of Aircel/MTS/RCOM and RCOM/JIo spectrum sharing deals who knows what is in store for Customers after a year. One thing is for sure CDMA Voice/Data will not survive in India after couple of years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted December 24, 2015 ^ ^ ^ So only VOLTE for voice? No CSFB fallback in RJIO? As far as I knew, and am out of the loop for a long time, there is voice fallback. Very few, if any at all, operators have only volte till date as Sudharshan also was mentioning. Of course if someone wants to use their bundles to the max then volte and vowifi handsets are better. This is purely my understanding of it. Sent from my Lenovo A6000 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nitink 279 Report post Posted January 18, 2016 Reliance Jio LYF Earth 1 4G enabled smartphone launched in India One of the interesting announcements was made by Reliance Jio recently about its plan of rolling out 4G services. The mobile telephony company will be starting with the 4G services from its employees. If successful, the company will be planning to provide the data services to consumers as well! Followed by the launch of its 4G services, the company has all plans to release 4G enabled handsets under the flagship of LYF brand, namely LYF Earth 1. When we had a chance to get a glimpse of the phone, it enabled mid-range hardware and operates on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. The phone also has 13MP unit for imaging and 2MP smaller unit for depth sensing. The rear camera of the Smartphone is expected to be 5 MP which can help the users to take great selfies. Other features of the Reliance Jio’s LYF Earth 1 are 5.5-inch full HD display, 1.5 GHZ Octacore processor, Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 chipset, 3 GB RAM, 32 GB expandable internal storage, and 3500 mAh battery. The handset weighs 162 gms and has a metal & glass build-up. The device is expected to possess outstanding gaming capabilities also. As of now, there are no details about the roll-out of the smartphone but we are expecting any time soon. Also, there is no knowledge about the roll out of 4G services as well. These details were first reported by IBNLive and then verified by Gadgets360 from Reliance Jio. No matter, whenever the Smartphone gets released, we are keeping our fingers crossed and wishing Reliance Jio, all the best! http://www.tecake.com/reliance-jio-lyf-earth-1-4g-enabled-smartphone-launched-india/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
