Hi Guys,

Do you all find it difficult to make call without 3G on? Well, actually after trying quite number of time experiment the call performance with 3G on and off.

With 3G on, i'm able to make call easily but without 3G, means on EDGE, i found that it quite difficult to make a call without failure. Usually 2 out of 5 calls are failed.

I'm not experiment with the call quality switching automatically btw 3G and EDGE. It merely initial call on successfully with 3G enable and disable separately.

Am i the only one experience such situation? Btw, i'm on Singtel line but i do experience the same problem on Maxis line in KL (on EDGE only, no 3G with my Maxis line).

Hope you guys can share some experience.

PS: on latest 2.1 firmware.

hmm...sound like only i'm the only one that experienced it. How about if totally off 3G and EDGE?

What I experience is let say i'm calling 012-1234567, then i'll heard "dup dup dup" then the screen gone back to the contact number. Worst, even no sound for 10secs then gone back to the same contact number that i intended to dial.

I just wondering if this happened to both my singtel line and maxis line, then it shouldn't be network related.

@rx330

Yes, i do have sim locked pin set by me on maxis sim card. But i don't see any related issue with it as it does happen on my singtel line which do not have sim locked pin.

Maybe i need to clarify that i'm not "targeting" on Call Drop but Call Failed

as experience by some other people as well as i found out googling. Just the different is i'm able to get stable call out on 3G but unstable call out with 3G off.
