I'm using digi broadband rm58/mth package.

Recently i just change my dumb phone to smartphone, HTC Wildfire.

I was thinking to sign a data plan for my phone, then for a 2nd thought:
Can i use my digi broadband simcard insert in my phone and surf net with it?

I know by doing that, my phone:
NO CALL
NO SMS
NO BONUS/EXTRA SERVICES
NO MMS

ONLY DATA ACCESS!


But, really, a smartphone without WiFi or internet connection still a DUMBPHONE!

Despite the no call, no sms....bla bla bla...lots of 'CANT DO', I wanna know what i 'CAN DO'

Please teach this dumb fella to be a smart user of technology thingies~~

yup u can...
i use maxis BB on my wildfire.. pure data only..

Just put the simcard into my phone then straight away can on9?

For call and sms.

If you are smartphone.
Install Skype, Fring, GoogleTalk.

Just buy some small amount of call time. aka USD5 etc.

Or
For the other option, convert your existing phone line in to Digi Prepaid or Digi Easy Prepaid.
This will let you make call/sms and and get the RM15/week unlimited internet access.

im not concern about the call or sms, im okay with just surf net with my smartphone.

just i dun know i can use my bb simcard n put into the smartphone n use or not.

one word, CAN, YES, YOU CAN.

HTC android os???

1st, go to setting
2nd, go to wireless xxxx, <<< can't remember
3rd, go to bottom bottom, which write something about >>> APN, so on, click it.
4th, change the APN to "3gdgnet"

p.s: don't forget to "tick" a setting which call >>> "Allow device to send and receive data".

after done this setting, sure it work.

Oh my! U r my savior! Thank you so much! Muacks muacks muacks!

Trying now...hopefully everything is okay ^^

hi all,
can u suggest the most affordable phone model which I can insert my Broadband sim inside & enjoy the internet surfing..?

* Now using Nokia E72,but cannot support this ..huhu

Samsung Galaxy Mini, RM599

lol, u kidding me? nokia e72 can not support digi broadband sim card? come on man, you just need to do the setting.
go to setting, find the access point, create a new apn which is "3gdgnet".
when you want to online, use 3gdgnet to connect.

hi
i am so curious how to use dg bb in my samsung galaxy w, in samsung there is no APN but only VPN.
alamanda.online, can teach on the samsung setting as well?
thank you so much..

sorry man, i never touched galaxy w before. but it is using android right?

may be i just write down the step, u try to follow up, ok?

Settings > Wireless & networks
Mobile networks > Access Point Names
"touch" menu to open the menu, the "touch" New APN
inside the new apn, key in:
Name: DiGi BB
APN: 3gdgnet
"touch" menu again, "touch" Save
After you saved it, tick the APN u just created.
then back to the mobile network setting, the "touch" to ON the "data enabled".
that should be work.

ya, i got it done, thx

Sorry, mind If I borrow your thread? What if it's a Maxis broadband sim? How can you actually enable it too?

try those ideos from Huawei.. only RM200 used android set, can do both wifi and bluetooth teethering

good luck

work perfectly. Thank you very much.

or you can get another phone that support hotspot or get a MIFI router to transmit the connection so u can use it,

Hi, my apologies first..I know this is a digi forum but i need some help about using maxis BB sim card in samsung galaxy W..when i change back to normal sim card, it prompts to choose between maxis 2g and 3..which should i choose？Thanks!

U mean changing of signal type or internet setting?...

Hmm...i also dunno signal type or internet setting..when i switch on my phone it already prompt me this without mentioning anything..

guys.. its 2019..

im maxis one fibre bussiness internet c/w 4g standard sim card so called the back up internet..

new generation phones comes with nano simcard.. and i guess it doesnt work to just cutting the sim and put in the slot of nano sim tray..

can we mod the standard 4g sim from standard to nano?

or the other options is to buy the 4g sim router..?

I think it's mentioned somewhere in maxis tnc that the 4g standard sim is supposed to remain inside their stock router. In the event their fibre line is down, the 4g sim card will kick in to provide backup Internet.

I don't think maxis will want you to utilise the 4g sim card inside a phone. Although i did tried inserting the sim card into a usb modem and it can still function.

thanks for the info mate.
