  1. I have two Jio SIMs, one each in both my phones. One is an htc Desire 628 and the second a Moto X Play. Both are non-Volte. In both phones Jio is SIM2. We have far fewere outages in the htc than in the Moto. However, the frequency has dropped.

    Yesterday evening, while talking to a friend, all of a sudden the Jio signal vanished on by Moto. After a few minutes I was able to reconnect. No data or voice connection. I found the signal level quite high. So must have been a software bug. Then I tried using by Voda connection. Than was also u/s, and was not connecting on voice. I switched off the Jio and only then could I use the Voda. after about 45 minutes Jio was working on Data but not on voice. On the htc there was only a very short term signal drop, but the link again took a long time to come back. Voice was restored on both only after an hour and a half.
     

    I suspect a system crash and taking some time to get back. First data was restored, and voice took another hour or so..


  2. 1 hour ago, SUDYEcaZ said:

    Jio on non VOLTE handset will not have good user experience, Better avoid or take VOLTE phone 

    I beg to disagree. But for the loss of signal the experience has been excellent. Even that is reducing with time. The Web info can be dodgy since it says that the htc Desire 628 is Volte while it is not. I would go for the htc 10 but for the non-availability of a dual SIM on that.


  3. I am coming back after ages since I have been off Reliance for over two years.

    I have taken two Jio SIMs which I have installed in my Moto X Style, and htc Desire 628, both are non VoLTE. While the Desire is working fine, I have issues with signal drop on my Moto. Also, the Moto seems to be having the battery for breakfast. Barely lasts for twelve hours The Desire is giving us about a day.

     

    I find on the web that the 628 is Volte, but do not see a trace of that anywhere, incl the APP to check.

     


  4. Got my HQ9 cutters from Amazon.com today. Being US sourced Norelco was bigger the Philips on the box. Direct drop in replacement. The fine print says that the life is two years (ideal one year). Everything was fine, except for the DTDC chap who never rang the bell and took an ack. He just threw the packet in the driveway and vanished at some time. Fortunately, we were going somewhere and found and picked it up. Typical DTDC behaviour.


  5. My own Philips 8-series electric shaver was getting a bit old and the cutters were getting a bit blunt. After over four years I was thinking of buying a new one, since the US brand is Norelco, with a totally different model line up, so there was no hope for cutters from there. Then my son docanurag discovered that cutters/heads were available on amazon.com, with the cutter number as identification. The cutter nos are identical in Philips and Norelco. So I have managed to order a set of three cutters for under $40 (delivered) from amazon.com. In my shaver the model and cutter information is available under the clipper.


  6. Coincidence or otherwise I got a call from RCom. He wanted me to go to their local dealer at some odd location 14km away to collect the cheque. He claimed that the cheque was expiring on the 4th March. So they must have been sleeping on it. Then today we again got a call, my wife told him then how come March 4. He claimed that the envelope sent through a courier was mis-addressed. Now we suffer for their fault. I have asked my mobile dealer to get the cheque for me, and deposit in the SBI IIT kanpur branch. Let us see?

    He did get it on Friday, but the RCom dealer kept calling me. I saw the deposit from HDFC of ₹3230.96 in my SBI account right now, It was not there an hour ago! So the RCom saga is over, after just over a year. Now to Bhai Saheb Nahin Lagega aka BSNL. I had ported out three months earlier than from RCom,

  8. Does anyone know the future of imported cdma smartassphones after lollipop update?

    Just updated my Sprint htc One (CDMA + CGSM) to Lollipop. Went Uber smooth, even though I am no longer on CDMA. When I updated to kitkat it reset defaults to CDMA, nothing like that here.

  9. I was a loyal R-CDMA customer from its inception (DAPO days). Finally I ported out the Vodafone in February last year. Why - poor stability (too many call drops) and loss of data connectivity for over four months. Fortunately, I had an htc one (dual CDMA and GSM) from Hetal, so managed to do it without changing my handset. My bill is probably up by about ₹70-100 per month but at least it works. dKaile told me that he had a loss of data on his wife's phone, and had to get the RCom backend to intervene.


  10. I got fed up with call drops and no data (for four month) on my RCom CDMA and ported out the Vodafone GSM a year ago. Fortunately, my htc One from Hetal was CDMA + GSM. Have been quite happy there. Prior to that in December 2013 I ported by Wife's GSM from BSNL to Vodafone. The reason was unstable connectivity in Kolkata (even in Park Street area). My son did away with R-CDMA about q8 months back. He was not getting any signal in Fortis, Gurgaon. So he moved on to Airtel on the corporate plan. The funny thing was that he was getting a proper signal on RCom even 200 m away. So RCom lost two DAPO customers within six months or so. He also got a htc One from Hetal even though he was on GSM only. Now he has managed to crack the screen (corner fortunately) so he is waiting for the new htc One (M10 or whatever). before he changes.


  11. I ported my BSNL in November and just ported the Reliance CDMA. Both are to Vodafone (UPE). Why Voda - they ar on 900MHz and have 3G in UPE (the others are BSNL and Aircel). Voda (or rather Hutch) and (now defunct) Usha were the first in UP and Voda has a god network. I am waiting for National Single No to come, then I will form a family CUG with my daughter and family in Kolkata.


  12. Have ported from Reliance CDMA to Vodafone GSM today. Reason is that I was not getting data for over three months. Then dkaile tod me that old DAPO customers were specially blessed. Then my son docanurag reminded me that he also had similar issues. By then the request was in. So the port happened today. dkaile told me that I should change the data settings to GSM/UMTS. The port did take about 1-1/2 hours.

    This was a Hetal phone and is now a pucca GSM unit. Thanks dhiraj & hetal.
