Hi Domokun, Thks for yr feedback. Them 9530, 9550, 9630 under Verizon seem to have support issues with Celcom. there are a few other users waiting for positive outcome specifically for 9630 and Digi. it helps that yr 9550 is proven to work.


Added on November 24, 2009, 1:13 pmdear domokun, to solve yr activsation matter dial ##000000 send , a new menu will popup. only put yr new number into 1st line. then save, phone will reboot. only amend the 1st line to whatever number you want to display. hope this helps.

Guys, same here. MMS never use or tried, assume its not working.
Tethering, many have attempted but failed.Same here.

Most of us are with Maxis, had switched over from Digi months ago bfore Digi launched this package. Maxis bill just shot up 40% doing the same thing-amazing.

Now can any Tour user verify a working BIS under Digi. Can't wait to default to Digi Edge (which is plenty fast) and allow battery to last full day. Keep the 3G as option for not sure what.

Cheers Guys.

Wow Winter, you are pushing into new frontiers. great to hear that. Can you verify yr Tour as Verizon or Sprint ? The Verizon one seems to be noted as the more difficult one. You should try using Edge all the way .l see if its fast enough .l save batt life. One drawback when I was on E71 digi edge was that ppl couldn't call in when you're heavy downloading/surfing. Do share yr experience, thjks. Peter

I have been using the Verizon BB Tour 9630 on DIGI Plan Rm58 BIS Postpaid (not SME) for 12 days already.
Very Good and Stable.
Everything works fine, SMS, MMS, Email, BB Chat, BB App World, BB Everything. Facebook, WinLive, Twitter, EPL, Weather.

Both 3G and EDGE is working fine.
3G i got speeds of 300k-1000k
EDGE got about 50k to 200k

email me if u got any question.
Celcom Refuse to add this machine.
Maxis have some 3G spectrum problem.
Digi have no problem at all...

email me at wkk888@gmail.com for questions.

Thks for this good feedback. For a while Verizon Tour were shunned, now at least there is some usability restored, by way of Digi.

Generally Verizon Tour has following disadvantages:-
- no wifi
- no mms (not sure if Digi can)
- no tethering (many tried and failed)
- no celcom BIS (this one probably a good point)

for that we save about RM1000 over a Bold 2.Which is quite a bit of money.

Keep up the good feedback, when I was using Digi non-BIS on my Tour, surfing under Opera and also cracked BB Browser was slow. Slow by way of long lag on clicking a site. If you guys can give some feedback whether this exist. I used the same SIM card in E71 and it flew like lightning even under Edge.

Cheers, Peter

What a joke.

My Tour with Digi got the below items working!!!

- MMS (working with tons of picures)

- Digi is not Celcom!!!

Why would anyone buy a BB & not sign up to BIS is beyond me!! They might as well buy a Nokia!!

Guys, good feedback. I just subscribe with Digi BIS yesterday. They sent me the email saying that the service is on at 7pm, so after that I use like hell laa.then at midnight, the thing stuck.cannot online.i checked my balance and found out that the service is not on and they are charging normally at diginet rate. So I reached my credit limit. Then today they said that I have to check my APN ID and make sure it is blackberry.net and not diginet. So for others outside, carefull. I'm not blaming anyone, the service is good. My fault also coz cannot tahan already to explore the internet via my BB Tour. Anyway, need to ask them whether they can give some rebate. if not, have to pay loh.what to do.no need gaduh2.hahaha.Love BB. no wonder people who use BB never change to other phone after that.
