The data started working for sometime today but only on 1x. As soon as evdo came back, it stopped. Went to a nearby Reliance Store whose person is very knowledgeable. He tried some settings and raised some complaints. He told me to wait for a day or two to see if the backend can find a resolution otherwise he advised me that on similar phones, sims with the RGE series (omh diamond sims) are the only ones working properly but as they are old series, people are black marketing those to upto 750 bucks. I have ordered one from a Delhi Webworld friend for about 500 bucks. Let us see the results. He also gave news that Reliance CDMA is winding up shortly and all operations will be taken over by Jio. And by evening I got news from another friend (who is personally using Jio) that Jio is starting operations withing the fortnight and sims will be available in 5~7 days. So it's 500 bucks wasted for that sim that I have ordered....lolz. As eventually I have to shift all my connections to Jio anyways, and so will ALL OF YOU. So you can easily invest in this handset as its future proof. Only if they had made the 3GB/32GB model available, it is so much more value for money than the over priced Mi5. Was watching a 4GB rip of the Star Wars the Force awakens on it today and boy was I impressed, no stutters and great screen quality. It put nearly all my previous costlier phones (2-3 times costlier) to shame. Cheers...

Because there is a share of QCOM on every CDMA device made by a manufacturer. The carrier has to share with manufacturer. US is the strongest CDMA market in the world with manufacturers abiding to highest quality standards. Other CDMA markets are dominated by Mediatek processors. A chipset architecture many ways inferior to Qualcomm's proprietary Snapdragon family. Also, MTK handsets are regarded as devices for the masses. Even as CDMA technology in India remains on top, people buying off counter are least bothered about the drawbacks of GSM and continue to buy Gionee, Micromax, Lava, Spice and companies I wouldn't know of. Almost all dual sim handsets carry MTK processor, MTK means no performance. You need to flash MTK flasher for upgrading or downgrading a firmware on Indian HTC, China Telecom Samsung handsets. So all those who wouldn't compromise on quality purchases a North American CDMA handset. Sent from my K016 using Tapatalk

They are in talk with Tata for icr cdma . They can't afford to loose a huge revenue from fwp and data cards . They will try their best to save this base somehow

Port to GSM is bull**** ! RCOM already developgin 4G SIM for CDMA as well as GSM customer they just need to get new 4G SIM which will fallback to GSM network for calls ! NO NEED to PORT HERE and THERE ! 4G SIM is in testing ! mya be available after 30 days in select circle ! in Few Circle they might have to surrender CDMA before the 4G SIM comes so they may force to get Temporary GSM by GSM porting ! But again 4G SIM have to be upgraded for GSM customer also /!
