MICROMAX CANVAS 5.....CDMA?

Recommended Posts

Hi guys ,

Can anybody confirm MICROMAX Canvas 5 recently launched in INDIA considering that it is having MT6735 chipset supports CDMA .

This is because technically the chipset - MT6735 manufactured by MediaTek is called "world-mode" chipset supporting CDMA .
Already written to Micromax team ..they have not responded till date.
Do revert !!

Their official website shows it supports only GSM+WCDMA+LTE (WCDMA represents 3G GSM). There is no CDMA+EVDO.

Please god rama, if it supports cdma, i will give my iFocus m810 to wife and buy it. It has good looks and specs and decent set of accessories available.

Don't drag lord rama in this. I don't reckon he cares what phone your wife will get and what you decide to buy. Not now and not when he was on earth as a mortal.

Just my two cents.

Hi ,

As far as I am aware, the Canvas 5 does not support CDMA network. The world mode is switched off like the Gionee phones on this one also.

Subject: Your review Micromax Canvas 5 -- ET dated 18-Nov

Dear Sir ,

This refers to the subject , i have a query against your review of the referred phone ie., newly launched MICROMAX CANVAS 5.

Does this support CDMA network ?

Technically this should because it runs on Mediatek MT6753 processor also called "world-mode" chipset , refer the attached link

I tried contacting micromax , however there was no response , actually many Chinese made phones in India on the same chipset come with the CDMA option turned off ex- GIONEE F-103, though it is supported in other regions.

Your help / may be a little experimentation in this regard , since you may be well connected will be of great help .This is because micromax has earlier given support for CDMA NETWORKS

Await your positive response.

Regards ,

:suicide: seems that world mode is turned off in Micromax Canvas 5 and Gionee Marathon 5. Any custom ROM to turn on them on worldmode?

I am sure the world mode was deliberately switched OFF just to avoid patent issues or to be precise, to avoid paying royalty to qualcomm..
