4g will be launched very soon in the above 10 circles and cdma services will not continue there after 31st May. Only cdma customers will be upgraded currently. GSM customers will have to wait. For upgrade to 4g all customer has to do is purchase a 4g ready sim and send a sms from his no along with the 19 digit sim no. MNP/INP not required. LTE will b used only for data and fallback of voice will happen on 3g/2g automatically.

The pictures seem to be a part of FAQ pointers. Can you give the full FAQ/source link. Edited by commonman

What plans are on offer for RCDMA users migratign to RGSM?

Migrating to RGSM is completely different than upgrading to 4g. You have to do MNP/INP to migrate to RGSM and the plans are not very attractive too. Better upgrade to 4g and ur same voice and data plan will continue. You can use the 4g sim in normal 2g/3g gsm handset also if you dont want to use 4g. Post 90 days you will b eligible for MNP once again.

What do u mean by 4G is different than RGSM here?

Are you saying that CDMA customer who upgrade to 4G will have different network than RGSM?

I thought even RGSM customer can use 4G network

Reliance CDMA migrating to 4G will NOT use Reliance GSM network at all for providing 4G services. They will solely use JIO's LTE/GSM network. They might use it for voice AFAIK. Edited by dkaile

Customers upgrading to 4g will be latched on LTE for data and RGSM(2g/3g) for voice. Currently only existing cdma customers will be allowed to upgrade. GSM customers will have to wait.

When did JIO put their gsm network ??????. They only have their own LTE network and for voice they are still struggling with VoLTE.

RGSM fallback must be used. They have no other option apart from VoLTE otherwise.

Does it mean that temporarily we can take 4G SIM and use with normal 3G phone till we get a 4G compatible handset.

Based on the information so far available, CDMA network is going to be killed and the complete spectrum farmed for LTE 4G

Yes take a 4g sim and use jio join on any 3g phone. Cdma 850mhz spectrum is vital for jio so they had to free up the cdma voice clutter. Volte has not yet stabilised but it is not that bad also considering 2300mhz network

Yes you can. Whenever u buy 4g handset you can use LTE. Till then u can use normal 2g/3g on gsm handset.

Exactly. For me it seems that JIO is somehow testing its LTE on 850 band with RCOM cdma customers before they strart deploying for themselves.

If the same voice and data plan has to continue, I would upgrade to a better data plan on RCDMA. That will ensure I will get 4G at cheaper than 3G rates (3G rates of AVOID). Is it time to upgrade RCDMA plans ?

JIO's LTE network will be known as GSM for the general public for all sense and purpose. It will use 4G enabled phones with LTE bands which are all basically GSM phones not CDMA. Reliance's GSM network is pathetic to say the least and the voice fallback plan for Reliance 4G customers is suspect and JIO is developing it's own backbone over LTE and VoLTE to counter that.

Hope that clarifies.

Till they shift junk of the Customers to R4g they won't be able to shut down cdma

Buy they may trouble cdma customers with poor netowrk and slowly bringing all to 1x and compelling all to move to 4g

So people willing to stay on cdma should not opt 4G sim

Exactly!

They will not close CDMA all of sudden.

They will be keep forwarding the dates to shut down the CDMA.

They'll force up to a certain limit.

Whatever backbone JIO may be developing, the reality is that their commercial launch is being delayed just because of their unsuccessful VoLTE testings. So JIO cannot think of providing voice fallback for RCOM 4g customers. Chances are very high that JIO will use RGSM and their ICR partners for its voice fallback even after successful VoLTE launch.

Lolz. OK, so at least you got the point that LTE is in fact GSM for layman. There is nothing wrong with VoLTE technology used by JIO. Their VoLTE testing has been successful wherever their towers are operational. It is more to do with lack of VoLTE enabled handsets with the mass public and lack of full penetration of their towers that will force JIO to look for other partners for voice support and that too for the time being.
