Reliance CDMA Network Upgrade To 4G LTE

Recommended Posts

Can I use these 4G SIM Reliance had sent me in any old GSM phone? I need this service for the next 3 months. After that, I'll buy new phone. I only need it for voice. My data usage is almost zero.

Yes., you can use it with any old GSM phone....

HTC 816 will work on LTE 1800 which will be shared by RJIo. Unfortunately it will not work on 850 Mhz or 2300 Mhz. HTC 510 sprint will also not work on these band but will on 3G and 2G bands. However it shouldl work on forthcoming BSNL 4G on 2500 Mhz. It depends on version. This chart is for HTC  Desire 510.

Wind 4 is good at 6799 and can be used for hotspot - unlimited voice, sms, data and apps (live tv, vod, music, magazines, etc)

Ref.: Reliance Lyf Wind4

In Google Play store, most of the App-icons & images do not load at all!  

Tried Device Software update to "Latest". Google Play store & Google Play Service Apps Uninstalled & Reinstalled - No improvement. 
Further, Factory-Reset of the device also performed - Problem persists! 

However, App-icons & images load perfectly when Lyf Wind4 is connected to a WiFi Hotspot (BSNL Broadband WiFi Router).

Any solution, RIM Gurus?

thanks & regards

Yes, it is. Many Sprint and Verizon phones now have SIM card slots. The SIM cards are generally there for Sprint's and Verizon's 4G LTE networks. The phones may also have SIM slots to support foreign GSM networks as "world phones".

Your reply is not in context to my question.

I know what a world phone is and I can assure you desire 510 isn't that!

These handsets have had sim slots for few years now.

My reply was based on specification sheet published in gsmarena. I do not own this phone.

RCom – Aircel merger talks may conclude in July

source

Read this

Once the due diligence is over, RCom will carve out its wireless business and merge it with Aircel’s wireless business, which will result in a new brand, the report said.

Aircel has spectrum to offer 3G in 13 markets while RCom has it in 11 circles in the country. The new entity, if formed, will gain from Reliance Jio’s 4G spectrum and help to offer broadband services without spending huge capex and opex on network and spectrum.

A merger of the wireless businesses of RCom and Aircel will also help RCom expand its GSM services in West Bengal, Bihar and Assam, where it did not win back its 900 MHz spectrum in the March 2015 auctions, according to agency ICRA.

VA,

I am not sure if this handset would run RGSM sim or not...the specs shared by you refreing GSM areana says it would. Try it out by inserting a RGSM or any other sim.

The only productive input i can give you is that bands can be unlocked...i can share XDA links and tools if you want. It would require some tinkering and some risk taking...but it is worth it.

Let me know if you need help in this.

Are you suggesting LTE bands or gsm bands?

I don't mind tinkering, in fact I love it. Please suggest links!

I mean both ... gsm and LTE.

Here are some :

http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-note-pro/development/how-to-unlock-lte-frequency-bands-mi-t3215880

These procedures are rather general, and not exactly mapped to the phone. Please try and find one specific to your phone...in any case you can try the one listed above.

I have these tools...though they are also available on internet through file sharing site...let me know if you have difficulty in finding them...i ll upload them.

510 won't work with GSM. Nothing is impossible but highly unlikely. Radio of 510 doesn't have gsm capabilities like flagship phones. 510 have various variants cricket is gsm one. European model is 64 bit gsm, sprint, boost, boost are only CDMA phones.

aircel 3g is present here in lucknow (UP-E). i believe, the duo (aircel & rcom) will rock, as both are equally lazy..

Can anyone from Maharashtra & Goa circle confirm if your network (data & voice) is working properly?

My mobile phone in Mumbai circle is working okay but my dongle from Maharashtra & Goa circle is not showing any signal.

That's true. So far nobody has been successful in enabling gsm on cdma HTC desire 510 and 816. Even enabling additional LTE bands hasn't worked for me on 816. It seems the phones might not be equipped with rf filters and other components and even if they are present, rf calibration data may be missing. One Chinese guy extracted rf calibration data for a Motorola phone I believe from other variants of the same model. He did so by extracting calibration data from qcn files created from other variants for specific bands. He also indicated that he also had access to QRCT software.
