Tata Indicom used to give this option where user can bring a cdma handset compatible with their network and they will program it for you..

I dont know whether its available now with TATA.. bcz last year there had been

some disputes between Reliance and TATA regarding this facility.. :)

For 500Rs

Who said its avl in 500 bucks anymore?

Anyways this thread is not to discuss the rates! LG 2030 would cost INR 6350/- by means of Upfront Payment now. If in korea its avl for lesser than this, he shud be able to purchase it here and take the TRAI STANDARD Plan and use the phone! Isn't that possible?

Well Ganesh, y dont u write to the Customer Care? and figure out from there? and let us know! Click here to write to Customer Care, and select NEW USER And in email reason select PROSPECTs INQUIRY >> HANDSET INFORMATION

Buying a phone from korea and making it work in India in case of a cdma is not a problem, technically thats very much possible but reliance as company policy will not agree to it as it need to be entered in the HLR of reliance you can not program it on your own.

I don't think its a question of "Can you use the phone here", but rather "Will you be allowed to...".

I thought TATA allowed you to bring your own CDMA phone. Reliance sure doesnt. BSNL & MTNL does (I think!) - but then again they dont have much of a CDMA service!

If you're planning on bringing a GSM be careful because that might be operator locked to (it is in the US). But breaking that lock is easy. All it takes is a little "flashing" by your local pirate stores.

When i sent them the above query.. they replied with this! Maybe i shud rephrase this time by saying tht wht if i can get one which is compatible with Rel networks? wht do u'll say?

With  reference  to  your  query  on  use of other CDMA handset on Reliance

network, we would like to inform you that you cannot use any other handset,

because  only specific handsets have been tested for compatibility with our

CDMA 1X network.

i mean the specification of the handset, if you can get with that standards what they prescribe, they should allow you to use the same.
