Is the tariff and packs published on rcom.co.in still valid even after migration to 4G ?Afaik all the other networks in Gujarat are better than RGsm, incl Bsnl. Are you jumping for the 4g network of Rcom? Then better wait till RJio launches service in Gujarat, IMHO...sent from my Lenovo Vibe P1 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my LS-5014 using Tapatalk Cookie bhai, apke greater Noida mein hi nahin NCR mein kisi bhi region mein kisi ka bhi nahin chal raha unless 4G pack recharge karaya ho. It is as simple as that that RCOM idiots have separate data buckets for 2G/3G and 4G. G**d maro RCOM ki.. @#@$#@* Never been so much annoyed with any mobile network as with RCOM aka RGSM. It's time to screw RCOM, 10 times harder then they screwed us.. Wait for the 90th day and port out all RCOM phone. Ask everyone around also to do so.. Never recommend RCOM to anyone.. I have apprehensions about Jio too now.. these brothers are cheaters.. Jio would be a big failure.. A company cannot launch network even after 6 years of spectrum.. There is seriously wrong. Other operators are slowly launching 4G.. at least they are doing something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To get 4G you need to activate any 4G data plan separately - only then it will start. Till then enjoy 3G. Its really weird as Rcom is treating 3G and 4G as separate packs, where I am using Vodafone 3G/4G pack with any network mode - means either 2G/Edge/3G/H+/4G/LTE with the same 3G/4G data pack. But in case of Rcom I am able to use 3G/H+ and not 4G/LTE data in my prepaid phone. Further it is really funny as I can use 4G data in my Data card (Using in my handset) with 4G balance, but if I switch to 3G/H+ my core balance starts getting deducted instead of 4G data balance.

Would SIM-Patching enable my phone to receive Band 40 (2300Mhz) Thanks! Band is Hardware dependent. SIM patching is required where hardware supports necessary band but due to some software/firmware problem in SIM, it can not get certain services. No level of SIM upgrade can get you data if you do not have a phone that supports it. The initial lots of 4G SIMs, mostly with 04/2016 manufacturing date, have problems with data connection and require to be "patched" before they can get data. But if 2G/3G data is working, then SIM is ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arunc1 2 Report post Posted July 31, 2016 We are all eagerly waiting for the Jio launch to port out to them. I would like to ask whether Jio will entertain port-ins from customers ditching RCOM? Won't they have a no-poaching agreement in place between them? TRAI and customer's choice be damned! If there is such a pact between RCOM and Jio, isn't it better better to do RCOM>other operator (wait 90 days)>Jio? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If there is such a pact between RCOM and Jio, isn't it better better to do RCOM>other operator (wait 90 days)>Jio? They can't have any such agreement since TRAI will not allow. But yes ! if you are planning to switch then immediately you should port out to any other operator then you can switch to Jio after 90 days (i.e. by 15th November) - But if you continue with Reliance then you cannot port out after 16th August and lock in period would be till 30th November. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So It Looks like RIMs promise of premium 4G is true. They are planning to provide better coverage 4G at premium prices ? So Rcom Going for the High Cost High Quality Customer whereas Jio going for us regular Users ? Very Odd Considering that all Rcom Users are there basically for both the superior quality as well the acceptable data for handset and Similary Aircel has had a reputation for providing Service for reasonable Cost. Where as the Merged Entity would entirely shift base losing all its current customers in order to gain niche customers. Almost like they are going to push all their customers to other network and starting from a clean slate. Not good strategy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
