I recharged with 4G Data Combo voucher of Rs.299. I get the 4G Signal on top however there is no Data transfer happening. APN is rcomnet. Called customer service. As per them everything looks good at their end and it might be handset issue. I'm using Lenovo A7000. Any solution? Send sms START to 1925. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
commonman 228 Report post Posted September 24, 2016 (edited) Out of my 2 RCom Delhi 4GLTE SIM, both presently on roaming in Kolkata, one has gone offline since today morning. Its in Lyf phone as second SIM with Jio set as the first SIM. This RCom SIM is from 4/16 series and not patched so data does not work on it. Even on manual search, no Reliance network is shown and Aircel 2G Network is shown as forbidden. This one is a postpaid SIM Strangely, the other RCom 4GLTE SIM (prepaid, patched and put as first SIM in J7) is working, though connecting only in H+ mode. Don't know what is happening. Edit: It started working again after 10 PM Edited September 24, 2016 by commonman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The signal you are connected to may be band 3 or 40 of rjio and so no data for avoiding roaming charges. Or your sim may need patching, if even 2g or 3g data is also not working... sent from my Lenovo vibe P1 using Tapatalk You are right... RCOM 4G SIM is working with data in Lyf Handset. I was of the impression that if the phone supports 800MHz, it would also be supporting 850MHz. But it doesn't seem the case.

I was of the impression that if the phone supports 800MHz, it would also be supporting 850MHz. But it doesn't seem the case. If it is working in LYF it should work in Lenovo too. After recharging with ₹299.00 it takes some time for the data to get activated, so now if it is working in LYF handset it should work in Lenovo as well. Rcom data is valid for all over India so no question of roaming or not roaming. Rcom 4G works on band 3/5/40 so if your phone doesn't have band 5 it should still work on Band 3/40.

But need to select either of the 4 plans to activate the new 4g Sim. My Existing plan Jalsa998 wherein I get 50% off would be changed. Pathetic Customer Care and Absolutely wrong information by Rsgm team. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk I got call from Reliance for 4G SIM but was communicated that Plan and everything else will remain same. I am on SplZero Rental. Will it change my Voice Plan?? Is selecting some 4G plan mandatory for changing to 4G SIM? Edited September 25, 2016 by Saurav Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Band 20 is mainly used in European countries, especially in rural areas. This band is a must for roaming in European countries. Other than that Band 20 is useless for us.

mywebid 21 Report post Posted November 1, 2016 Facing severe network issues in so called RCOM 4G LTE sim. It doesn't catch network on roaming for hours while the old RGSM sim shows network. Requires several times phone reboot, manual network selection to make it work. The way RCOM handles things is laughable. They dug their own grave. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LTE4G 195 Report post Posted December 23, 2016 (edited) Yes! Now rcom gsm/3G users can also upgrade to 4G Sim. Once upgraded to 4G you will not be able to use 3G recharge tariff anymore and will only have to recharge with 4G tariff.
