Just wondering if both edisi biru and edisi kuning available on both Celcom and Digi network or biru for Celcom and kuning for Digi? Otherwise it just makes no sense for majority of users to go with edisi biru unless someone willing to bear with 1Mbps FUP speed

Hopefully this will be the case. The Celcom and Digi 4G network had not merged yet in my area and I do not want to lose my Celcom 4G coverage advantage but the edisi kuning plan just way better offer

Wow, but just wondering what's the purpose for Edisi Biru? Is 1Mbps unlimited FUP appealing to some?

This will still likely taking sometime as even the current Postpaid offer still technically separated. You have the CelcomDigi Postpaid plan either running on Celcom network which also use the CelcomLife app but also Digi network which use the MyDigi app. Hopefully they could speed up the integration process.

The new prepaid plan had officially launched.
And Celcom user is not allow to subscribe to Edisi Kuning and require port in to Digi

Edisi kuning is under Digi technically is Digi Prepaid. meanwhile biru is technically Xpax prepaid. So yeah, it is technically under 2 different network. So for Celcom or Digi customers please choose wisely as it might affect yr 4G coverage/internet experience

Xpax Postpaid and low tier Digi Postpaid had discontinued. CelcomDigi Postpaid SE become the successor. Tbh, the plan looks quite promising

As the network is far from full integration. The app integration prolly takes even longer. Hopefully we could see 1 CelcomDigi app after they completely integrated their infrastructure

Just4Me is still a thing in CelcomDigi Edisi Biru. My plan is A02 as well. So A01 has nothing to do with the ''color''

5G seems to be ''permanently'' activate on the latest prepaid plan as well.

Bought a Digi SIM to test out the recently upgraded sites, let's say to 4T6S or AAU. Most sites are having problem from running on 4CA, resulting into slower 4G+ speed after the upgrade.

The worst scenario is most of the upgraded sites started to broadcast 2G on 900MHz as well, due to Digi limited 900MHz spectrum, the precious LTE Band 8 was squeezed from 5MHz to 3MHz. Due to 3GPP standard, 3MHz bandwidth LTE is not allow for carrier aggregation resulting into awful single digit slow speed if your phone accidentally dropped to Band 8....

Besides that, compared to Celcom and Maxis, Digi has a way higher tendency on connecting Band 8 as the primary LTE carrier. Honestly, this is a terrible decision. Customers could not enjoy the best available network.

Last but not least, most of the uncombined upgraded sites stays on 2CA even on high band, it either do B1+B3, B3+B7 or B1+B7, but could not do B1+B3+B7. Terrible experience if u are an existing Digi customer experienced the network before upgrade and after upgrade

Android users on Digi, force yr phone on 4G not 5G, install CellMapper. If your phone shows MY CELCOM instead of Digi on the top. It means the network is integrated.
For Celcom users, force yr phone to 4G as well, install CellMapper or any cell tracking tools. If the TAC number shows 5 digits, very likely the network has been merged.

NetMonster for Android will give u a hint as well, Celcom's EARFCN are 1650, 3150, 375, and 3600. Digi's EARFCN 1850, 3350, 524, and 3524. If you are from telco A but see telco B's EARFCN as one of the carrier for 4G+ CA in NetMonster, means the network had been merged.

Alternative way for iPhone and non CelcomDigi customers are going through CellMapper map and depending on crowd source data.
Pick Celcom, if u see 5 digits eNodeB number instead of 6 digits in north and central Malaysia, means the network had been merged. South and east coast is harder to identify, same just pick Celcom in CellMapper map, and see if most recently mapped cells have a 5 digits Region code, if so that means merged already

First condition might be due to handover failure, the phone is connecting to a further cell. A flight mode or restart the phone might solve the problem?

Since it is extremely unlikely for an MRT DAS to have such poor RSRP. Might just be handover failure

There's a worse problem with Digi 4G currently. Some of the sites had narrowed the L900(4G Band 8) from 5MHz to 3MHz and switch on GSM900 probably to prepare for CelcomDigi merger here in Central and North Malaysia. If a Digi user was so unfortunate that the phone decided to connect to 4G Band 8 due to the tendency of having stronger signal, the phone will unable to connect to 4G+ for carrier aggregation due to 3GPP requirement of minimum 5MHz bandwidth and the speed is an awful single digit Mbps which u can.do nothing about it

eNb is 32373, previously there was no L900 on this site until the recent upgrade The Band 1 and Band 3 has 2 sectors per antenna now based on the cell ID observation. The antenna did look ''fatter'' than the old one. Celcom has no antenna at my place, the site that my place receiving Celcom signal is from 121261, colocated with Digi's 22452. The Celcom's 121261 has one of the antenna able to split Band 1 and 3 into 2 separated sectors. However, it seems not the case for Digi and also Maxis

525 is by Huawei cluster. It seems in Peninsular Malaysia, north and central use ZTE, south and east use Huawei. However, I had never travel to south or east since the network merger process going on. Not sure they tend to pick existing Celcom site and deprecated old Digi site as opposite of what they are doing here in Klang Valley (keep Digi but deprecated Celcom except if the Celcom site is way more strategic than the Digi one).

Btw, I would also like to ask a question why CelcomDigi decided to a 7-7, 3-3, and 1-1 CA instead of using intraband CA like 7C, 3C, and 1C? This could make a lot of more phones especially midrange to connect with more component carriers at the same time

The merged network has the main broadcast as Celcom and second broadcast as Digi. If yr area not merged yet such as Puchong, you will get back to Digi as the main and only broadcast

Technically not telco that is in charge of 5G but DNB. The 5G experience that u experience with Digi in that particular area will also be the case for Maxis, U Mobile, Celcom, and etc.

The DNB 5G network is getting really congested recently... I rather put my phone on 4G when approaching city centres or concrete jungles

Applicable for Digi subscribers only, Celcom users will always see BERSAMA DI WILAYAH CELCOM but length of TAC number will be different

Celcom own network is 3 digits, CelcomDigi combined network is 5 digits
