Gee...thx rEktOr, this is one comforting positive feedback about Celcom.  thumbup.gif  Will wait for more positive feedbacks and also see what will be Celcom's offers for the iPhone4  sweat.gif  Hopefully, by then I think I shld be able decide whether to port to Celcom or  remain with my current long time Maxis telco.

no prob..but there's been one thing plaguing me and my wife though..sometimes when we make calls, when the user at the other end answered, the call will be disconnected after 2-3 second. But then when we call for the second time it will be ok. Dunno if its Celcom's prob or our iPhones' problem.

I noticed I'm getting this message when I'm on celcom and trying to place a call. I hope they fix this.

Are you on a 3G plan? I think it pops out if you're on a normal (non-data) plan. That popup came on my phone on my old non-data plan but has mysteriously disappeared since I changed to the Exec250 plan. No idea why it happened though.

Could be true if there's no in-building site. But if there is (like shopping complex), it's because of their design for sectoring signal.

I have the same issue! Since both if us kena then possibly celcom need to update carrier version? What I do is I just dont press dismiss and well the call does not get dropped.

Added on a 3G broadband plan to my line, no simcard change. Problem still there.


And OF COURSE I had set call forwarding off in settings.

This is normal. Because Celcom is not official in iPhone model.

It can be fixed if u jailbroken the devices. Change some settings.

Else, u have to wait for celcom to join Official iPhone supplier and the new network settings updated from itunes sync.

Btw, i think the setting is evil.

When i was using my digi before digi official iphone supplier, i can disable the gprs charges using fake apn/username/password.

but once digi in official iphone 4 network, whatever i set wrongly, it will just go thru and keep charging me my gprs charges.

And no refund from digi as they say it is not there problem. but it is their problem as ios ver3 does not have option to switch off the gprs/3g setting.

Regards,
koonming

Thanks for the info but i dont understand. Turn off gprs setting? Did you mean turn off cellular data or turn off 3G?

Spoke to celcom yesterday and found out these:

- No new plans. It will just be the micro sim card.
-RM 38 is for 500 MB if you subscribe to voice + data and then you add on the broadband plan, otherwise you get 1GB limit if that number purely only for data.
-tested speed and its 384 because I am getting 314 kbps from my new broadband plan.

Purely done on my iphone, thanks to photobucket app biggrin.gif just awesome! Used to have to use pc to upload pics!


Added on September 29, 2010, 11:11 amThe lower scores below possibly due to ym running in background. I suddenly got a ym message during testing. Probably the app was running since yesterday without me realizing.

hi to all,

i have made some efforts contacting my brother-in-law, asking what his brother who is working with celcom can say about the news that celcom will be bringing iphone 4 to its users. and the brother has said that celcom will not be supplying iphone 4.

even after hearing this news, i still tiny bit of hope that my brother-in-law's brother is wrong (most probably he is not part of the marketing people nor close with any of marketing staffs).

so, we'll just wait for the infamous 15 October 2010's celcom-iphone debut.

that's all for now. bye...

yeah, I've heard a rumour its the first week of October. but I doubt the plans / phone price will be lower than Digi. I'm probably gonna get Digi cos the plan is cheap n the coverage is good enough.

Or they are launching it together with iPad? But still its just like DiGi last time. they launch 3GS way later then Maxis. No harm for trying IMHO.

w/out contract but for existing bb contract holder

i bet celcom gonna extend the contract, no way w/out extending the bb contract wink.gif

remember, telcos main profit from service

profit from phones are 2nd to them

although some phones are hot sellers but its just a one time

unlike contracts, if maintain long enough they'll get fanboy, err i meant loyal customer for years

i believe celcom plan will be similar to maxis where phone is cheaper but the plan will be more expensive. I prefer digi plan where the data unlimited and u need an unlimited plan using an iphone.
