i think it's enough for network conversation.. let's continue with nexus 4. any news friend?? new year already.. Digi still silent also LG..

Let's not go there. I don't travel much? Really?

You cant stop technology, and you can't stop folks from asking the latest and greatest. The same complaints were given during the EDGE days when telcos are moving to 3G, and where do we stand on that now?

Asking telcos to "get their shit together before deploying LTE" means Malaysia will forever be stuck in the loop where the country will always be behind the adoption of new mobile comm. standards because telcos had to cater to covering the rural areas. Telcos build coverage based on profitability. Hence why you see better coverages and service on city area where the more profitable and affluent can pay for their cost of erecting towers and coverage antennas. The rate is slower in rural and kampung area because there's not a large market for profitability here, most of the folks here either go for the most cheapest rate they can have, because they seldom go online or their activities does not involve going online as often as the more tech-inclined city people. The towers and antennas will come, but it wont be as rapid as the city la. The telcos are running a business, not charity. They build antennas and towers but market margin low in the kampung and smaller towns compared to city, why should they be building them at a faster rate? The city folks gets the latest and greatest, while the telcos continue improving connections for those living rurally. WIN-WIN.

It's like me having to wait for other just because they're moving slow. Sorry, I dont move at other people's relaxed pace.

Geez you dont know stringfellow
I think he travel to many places in the world most of us never does
He is a pilot with MAS n always in some foreign cities

If your phone support it automatically. In modern smartphones like Lumia 920 and Nexus 4, these have to be activated, and you can even choose whether you want auto-switching like you mentioned, or exclusively using a particular broadband connections, like 3G only or LTE only. The problem is, if you choose exclusive bands only, once you're outside of the coverage of that band, you get "No Service". Hence why you see those who are picky with not wanting a "No Service", either switch their phones to auto-switch, or the more thriftier ones, choose EDGE only. No disconnection but shittier speeds. You win some you lose some.

Nexus 4 doesn't support Maxis LTE. Lumia 920 does with a software update manually now or OTA on February.

and the old 3G equipment at big cities will be change/transfer to EDGE kampung site, then kampung site will have 3G and soon GPRS will gone

For N4 owners, does the N4 have auto reject options for black listed numbers?

many app in play store will do it for you like call block and etc..

Something to share. ..

anyone bought n4 from dark devon be4?

For Maxis users oklah.DiGi & Celcom users enjoice with HSPA only.

It'll cost a lot of money to a have a complete 3G coverage plus in certain area there will be very few users which will be a waste of money.Progressing to LTE while also upgrading the 3G line is the best way forward.
EDGE is a decent fallback option for data but the disadvantage of not being able to transfer data & voice simultaneously make it unsuitable.

My wish of LTE is just 2.Make it more reliable & increase the data limit for lower price.Limit like 1GB is way too little if you really want to use cloud based apps.

BTW with this relatively fast LTE adoption rate I hope more consumer electronic company will look to market their product faster in our country (*peek at apple).Some company consider Malaysia to be a bit outdated country because of the slower rate of newer technology adoption.Singapore is way ahead of us this with their puny population.

Malaysian telcos usually use the commonly standardized stuff.This isn't exactly a bad thing.We can use devices from other country which are compatible with out network.I guess Apple will eventually come with newer iphone (new new new iphone will sound awkward) which will work in our network.I still hope nokia will come with their GSM pentaband like transmitter for LTE.

I have another reason of supporting wider LTE usage.Unlike GSM LTE have number of proprietary which making it harder for third party to build a custom OS.Also the large number of LTE patens cost a lot to be licensed.Which make it more expensive if a new company wants to make a new os & phone.Hopefully will wider LTE usage these company (Qualcomn,Samsung,Motorola,Nokia & Apple) will be more open with their LTE related codes.

This is how Vietnam deploy their fibre. They also have more population than Malaysia. Vietnam 3G stable? I used to be there, sucks most of the time. If u meant small town, of coz more stable as there's less user.

LTE can relieve the congestion in city area as some of the 3G users will move to LTE. With 3G they can't do much unless they build more tower or buy more freq from government which is expensive.

Wow I hate to be the guy that has to climb up there and install new fiber wires

man.. with that kind of wire.. even cable burglars are confused which to steal first.. hahahahahahahaha

Yeah man, my colleague there saying whenever there's is blackout, they will cut 1 by 1 to see which cable having issue, dunno he was joking or wat

Hi, what's the difference between ultra crystal and ultra oleophobic?

Then what? Solder the wire back 1 by 1?
Like that all the electronic engineer students in Vietnam just have to learn trial by error theory.
