[cherynsq]

So when z1 roll out 5G SA, we need to go down to the shop to get new sim card again?

no .. u already have the new SIM

 

[cherynsq]

no .. u already have the new SIM

oh okay, so i will be getting the new sim? but it is not 5g SA yet, is that correct?

While waiting for port-in, do u all get a signal on the eSIM? I managed to install the eSIM but it shows activating on iOS.

Have to wait for port in to be successful first. No temp line to use while waiting.

This has been repeated many times. Yes, not yet SA only NSA. Info of SA rollout is in the FAQ

I helped my helper to apply too for the port-in. apparently for foreigner, i have no delivery options. So have to go down to self collect. the email says must wait for another email/sms for scheduling of collection. do we have to really wait? cause i applied for her on friday and never receive followup etc

 

[kelvinti]

nope. No news, 1.5 months to end of the year, Ray if you are reading this, please. Replace our Sim card soon, we need 5G SA

I see.

Okay lah. No hurry. Zero1 network is good, smooth and stable and fast even on NSA only.

Jollybee City Square Mall Counter area is much worse. Eating area is slightly better.

eight 4G with Poco X6 Pro: got signal but cannot start SpeedTest. Even in the eating area I cannot load OOkla SpeedTest.

StarHub Prepaid S Plan (5G), my daughter says the signal is very bad even though she got 5G connection. She can barely browse the internet. She is using Poco X6 Pro as well.

M1 Maxx with Poco X7 Pro: fall back to 4G LTE-A. Pretty okay 4G signal and speed.

Singtel SIM Only with Poco X7 Pro: no issues with 5G SA.



Today it is raining, next time I will try Beach Road Curry Rice.

My daughter told me this is a remote place once she walked out of City Square Mall. Then her shoes were broken. So we are back in the mall.

Why you all go around testing for the telcos? This is their job as network engineers leh. Haha.

IMHO .. weird hobby for the forumer

I treat it as a hobby, just like my learning of the home network side. Learning by watching YouTube, read articles on line, and carry out testing.

I also do quite some testing of Open Source projects. Please refer to my GitHub page.

+ all the new "threads" ..

There is a button "ignore thread".

I don't anyhow start a new thread. If you think so, report to the mod and let the mod decide.

Enough SpeedTest liao for Singtel SIM Only, Maxx and Eight 4G.

Maybe I will try SIMBA in the future. And StarHub Prepaid S 5G.

No interests in Singtel MVNOs.

Main thing is to check out the 5G/4G band used, 5G SA or NSA, 4G LTE-A or LTE, bandwidth, etc.

Speedtest is just a tool. I actually learn more with NetMonitor app.

Also watching YouTube about 5G/4G network structure (eg: RAN and Core Network), how VoLTE, VoNR and VoNR works, 5G modem chipset, etc.

Just curious to learn, not an expert, and not working in this field.

Anyone knows why im not getting 5G after recently signing up for Streamo Freedom 5G $15 plan. My phone is constantly on 4G+. Im using Oppo Find X8 5G, no issues with other MVNOs in getting 5G signal. Already restarted phone/used airplane mode to reset connection but to no avail

[SaLvAtoOo]

Thats creepy, after i posted, it changed to 5G and now the app shows my ported in number. Previously it was "no line" even though i could already use the esim. Haha
