nitink 279 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 seems the network returned in chandigarh my dad has received this sms - We are upgrading our CDMA service to 4G. If you are interested to migrate your CDMA number to our GSM service, write GSM and send to 55874 RCOM does this mean he wont get 4G LTE but they want to migrate him to RGSM once he sends them the sms does the word migrate mean port for punjab circle ? i have asked him to do nothing as of now. any clarity will be appreciated.

Saurav 22 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 Nitin, If its primary number better port it at earliest. In Punjab Circle none of Reliance Store is aware of 4G SIM till now. Network down happens frequently. Might be deliberately to make the customers shift. After today's No Network many people ported. If its a secondary number then u can wait.

The sms sent to punjab and the rest of us is different. why is Rcom hell bent on migrating them to GSM. does this mean Jio is not coming in chandigarh?

demail2006 3 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 1. Reliance will Upgrade its network to 4G and all CDMA customers will be transferred to 4G and they will shut down CDMA network. They will use CDMA 800-850 mhz frequency to deploy 4G. 2. CDMA customers will be migrated to 4G first. RGSM users have to wait for 1-2 or some months as they will keep having working network. 3. if you do not have 4G handset either you sim will provide 2G/3G connection or just 2G for call. 4. No need to port to RGSM as it is internal network technology upgrade. 5. Yes in another way CDMA users will be migrated to GSM but it may be not same as porting to RGSM. 6. RCOM and JIo will share 4G network vice versa and Jio will use RCOM 2G/3G. network for fall-back for data and voice as required. 7. Regarding GSM coverage for reliance it is expected to be going much better as per store person info on phone they will be having doubling the towers as JIO towers will also server RCOM users. 8. Jio do not have 3G/2G bandwidth but I think that does not mean that RCOM cannot user there infra. i.e. towers to boost / enhance their GSM network. 9. Jio will use their Infra like fibre etc. and Rcom's spectrum to service it's customer and I expect it will be vice versa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BihariSarpanch 20 Report post Posted April 20, 2016 Reliance stores in Delhi are clueless. My HTC 826 was snatched, so I needed to buy another CDMA phone so came to RIMWEB to get an idea about handset. When I came to know CDMA customers will be ported to 4G, I visited the store and asked them for clarity as wasting money on CDMA phone would be a bad idea in that case. They had no information. They just said CDMA would close by 31st May. And dongle users will be able to use MTS network. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

parin 857 Report post Posted April 20, 2016 In the eight circles where MTS is operational, this will be optional, while in the remaining circles, it will be mandatory or the user will lose his or her number when the CDMA service is shut down to make way for 4G. The 4G SIM will work only in 4G-enabled handsets and not in CDMA handsets.

parin 857 Report post Posted April 21, 2016 At present, the 850 MHz band has been tested only in certain states (where MTS is present). However, over the past 10 days or so, the two companies have been carrying out extensive testing of the 850 MHz 4G network across the country. This has disrupted RCom’s CDMA service, in turn leading to consumer dissatisfaction. However, the company has urged its subscribers to hold on till Monday and then get their CDMA UIM cards swapped for a 4G SIM card. The 4G SIM card does not require a 4G handset to be used, and works on 95% of the existing handsets in India, according to company sources.
