QUOTE(kaspersky-fan @ Jun 28 2015, 01:30 AM) This is quite a risky update. Have you guys read this from apple? https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201673It says that, 4G network could be a higher speed of HSDPA network or LTE (on the GSM models). This shows that if the status bar on your iphone shows "4G", it need not be an genuine LTE connection. However, if your phone's status bar showed "LTE", it means you are using the true LTE speed connection. I did notice when I put in celcom sim, I get 4G on my status bar, but with maxis it is LTE. Kinda confusing actually. Still figuring out why the sudden change to 4G instead of LTE, to hide distinctions between 3.75G (HSDPA+) and true LTE speed ? Best thing to do would be to go directly to maxis to clarify, but I have to say I don't notice any speed differences from when my phone was showing LTE and now when it is showing 4G. |

It does also say LTE doesn't support voice and data simultaneously. I think maxis upgrade is just that |

QUOTE(IsaacLiew52 @ Jun 29 2015, 03:55 PM) Hey guys, I heard that now celcom are now offer the Iphone 6 (16gb) for rm238 per month. Extra 3gb+3gb and 200minute call and sms. Is it consider worth to subscribe? Look attractive. 238 per month includes phone? Duration of contract? If it's 24 months, 238 x 24 = RM 5,712. Oh, and maybe try asking at the Celcom iPhone thread  This post has been edited by attw: Jun 29 2015, 04:46 PM |

QUOTE(IsaacLiew52 @ Jun 29 2015, 04:50 PM) yea, but also you pay for the plan. I notice the plan also got the optimizer. 2GB Internet + 2GB complimentary Celcom WiFi or UNLIMITED Calls and SMS to all networks. 3gb+3gb now the optimizer give you extra 2+2gb total is 10gb per month. Suit for heavy data user like me can dl video all day long. The call also looks attractive.  If you really use that much data and calls, then I suppose so. But bear in mind the iPhone 6 16GB costs RM2,702 without contract, so the other RM3,000 or so you pay goes to the telco. Might worth reconsidering. Anyways, best ask the folks at the Celcom thread... https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3385570/+980 |

QUOTE(sandrawong912 @ Jul 1 2015, 02:40 PM) Oh, I saw this on celcom website too. They have two optimizer, another one is unlimited free call and sms to all network. This the things that got me attracted because I used to make short call. But is this really that good? Anyone subscribe to this plan? Pls share... This being a maxis thread I doubt you'll get the answers you're looking for. Try the Celcom iPhone thread as per the link above. Cheers. |

Hi guys,
I'm having data leakage on iPhone 5s. Total of 850mb were used up in 2 hours after updating Whatsapp to the latest version. My app background is off. Checked the data usage for apps, nothing was above 10mb.
Could it be carrier side or my phone? I noticed that my battery drained significantly too, but I cannot find the source.

Tried resetting your phone? I think if you did that and it still happens then maybe it's time to give the carrier a call... |
