So if UMOBILE and MAXIS appeared on network search, is it ok to connect to MAXIS instead of UMOBILE to get better 3g service?

you can but exclude 4 places below

The locations at which the network will be shared do, however, exclude urban market centres, including the Klang Valley, Penang, Johor Bahru and Ipoh

All big 3+1 telcos are now concerned with ARPUs ..... Digi have just recently removed SLL for new subs ... Celcom and Maxis already did away with that a long time ago ...

Umobile already cut down features in their latest Unlimited Power prepaid. Call/sms tariffs increased. Added unlimited fb/insta/twitter to capture another market segment. Will it catch on ?

The previous Power prepaid is giving 1GB HS data monthly. That's 12GB HS data or 36GB data combined for 12 months. They're already losing money with their current promotions ... are they willing to lose more with extended validity ?

they are earning money and targeted to list their shares in stockmarket by 2018
does that mean we wont see improved postpaid offer from umobile from 2017 to 2018?
in india, Jio is offering unlimited call and 30 GB data a month for around Rm30 per month for one year

My cheap Lenovo Golden warrior phone I'm using runs on MTK chipset solution despite it's on a rooted global ROM.

Confirm does not work well with Network Signal Guru. Cannot see the stats like what you've shown, it won't reveal Band type being used and its bandwidth.

Instead I need to use MTK's own in house MTK Mobile Tool app to verify. Also it is not as user friendly.

My Lenovo Golder Warrior phone can only work with 2 LTE Bands which are Band 1 (2100MHz) and Band 3 (1800MHz). When I manually disable Band 1, the Umobile 4G signal stayed but when I disable Band 3 but re-enable Band 1, there is no 4G signal at all kicked back to 3G.

So can confirm Umobile's 4G-LTE network also utilizes Band 3 at my place.I'm not able to confirm how much bandwidth Band 3 has with Umobile unless I could get my hand on a Snapdragon based phone but very certain that it has to be <10MHz.

may i know what global rom you used?

anyone know why the data traffic so congested?

UMobile is riding on maxis network
Suspect maxis has been "managing bandwidth" for uMobile users riding on their network for quite some time

UMobile only piggy back on Maxis 2G network not on Maxis 3 or 4G, that's what I read in the papers. Bcos of this reason I often get the same missed calls problems now, same as when I was with Maxis.

Maxis Broadband Sdn Bhd (Maxis) and U Mobile Sdn Bhd (U Mobile) have entered into a multi-billion ringgit agreement to share Maxis’ 3G radio access networks (RAN) with U Mobile. The agreement will be for an initial period of 10 years.
(From L to R– Mark Dioguardi, CTO Maxis Berhad, Sandip Das, CEO of Maxis Berhad,Dr.Kaizad Heerjee, CEO of U Mobile & Too Tian Jen, CTO, U Mobile.)

Basically, via the agreement, selected Maxis base station will start using U Mobile’s 3G frequency. This allows U Mobile to offer 3G coverage for voice and data to its customers via Maxis radio network. To make the network sharing possible, Maxis is using Multi-Operator Core Network MOCN for 3G/LTE which is standardized by 3GPP.

The network sharing will exclude urban market centers, such as Klang Valley, Penang, Johor Bahru and Ipoh, where U Mobile requires high bandwidth for high speed mobile broadband services.

The agreement also allows LTE sharing when the spectrum becomes available.

In a statement, Chief Executive Officer of Maxis, Sandip Das, said: “Active sharing results in greater cost savings which in turn translates to increased direct revenue for both companies.”

“As a strong advocate of network-sharing, this will add to our existing carbon footprint reduction initiatives. To date, over 54% of our base stations sites are shared with other operators. This partnership will also accelerate broadband penetration in the country, paving the way towards achieving Digital Malaysia aspirations.” he added.

CEO of U Mobile, Dr. Kaizad added that “This mutually beneficial partnership with Maxis will accelerate the expansion of our current 3G footprint to more than 4,000 3G sites in Malaysia by early-2013.”

According to both Telcos, the RAN partnership also responds to the Government’s call for telcos to reduce duplication of network assets, enabling operators to deliver better services. In addition, this pact promotes increased competition at the service level rather than at the infrastructure level.

As a result of the collaboration, Maxis will receive a significant new source of revenue and will enhance utilization of its network in areas that are currently underutilized.

The value of the deal was not disclosed.

Umobile still no good plans I wonder went they will start giving more data and unlimited calls  maybe if can postpaid plan 50 with unlimited calls n with more data like 6 or 7 gb?, 5 gb so little
*
dont think so, likely will come out with unlimited for more xyx websites, but no unlimited call or more data for lower plans

UMobile has not updated their data allocation for P70 since 15th March, 2016
