SIMBA Telecom discussion thread

They might have made an appeal to Simba, thus took "finally".

This round, most if not all got the bonus almost immediately. Including yours truly.

Very likely is Simba's marketing department mistakes, some authorised dealers were informed of the promo but somehow were not included in the list and the system.

Or authorized dealers not authorized for this promo?

Very unlikely, one may underestimate these handphone shops customers base, they dare not commit to something they will not inform of. The likelihood is Simba's side misshap.

Huh? Mine never locked to yes. I have to manually choose it to test. Celcomdigi is the default when set to auto.

Mine s25 ultra, on auto, keep on go to Yes... Unless I manual lock to umobile or celcom for way better speeds... Yes is super slow...

Hmm, don't know what's the issue then. Maybe it's the new 5g Sim? I went to change.

But my another vivo phone, which is quite old, but also using the simba new 5g Sim, is auto on umobile....

Mine always UMobile Ultra 5G

All different. Probably at the scanning time and location, whichever telco has the highest signal will get locked on to.

is not actually.

Each telco has a preference of telco in every country.

For e.g. malaysia

Singtel - Maxis
Starhub/M1 - CelcomDigi
Simba - Umobile

Only when you have zero signal for their preferred telco, then you can lock on to other telcos.

Never connected to mobile before. I still believe it will latch to the strongest signal.

No need to change anything. I popped the Sim card into my new phone and just use it. Np.

What problem r u facing?

Regardless of Android or Apple phones, I always set both options of TPG, AND restart the device.

 

[dexboi]

TPG or INTERNET or *leave blank*
does different APN gives different speed/connectivity?

In both Android and iOS you can manually select your preferred roaming partner network if there's more than one available in your location with your plan's roaming arrangements. The manual network selection option is in your phone's settings. Your manual network selection may or may not be better than automatic network selection, but you can choose. For example, some roaming partner networks may support VoLTE for voice and SMS service, and some may not.

Roaming in Malaysia on my samsung phone, after changing to the new 5g Sim card I think it always auto stick to Yes.. Which is very very very slow, even slower than simba in SG.

Jb KL all same.. It doesn't stick to celcom digi or umobile which like it does previously.

I have to manual fix to celcom digi. Then when switch back to auto, awhile later it will jump back to Yes. Whether I'm in jb or KL or on the highways all same, phone prefer Yes.

All these while even before changing to the new Sim, it always celcom or umobile which is fast speeds.

I have another simba prepaid Sim, which is very old sim card, in current phone, which auto sticks to umobile or celcom automatically no issues. Only my main line with the new Sim problem.

Weird. I also changed to 5g sim before I go kl last month. Celcomdigi by auto connect. I changed it manually to yes to try. Yah slow. So I set it to auto again. Was on the 4.5hrs etc train to/fro. I streamed Netflix 4k, yt 4k etc. No problem. End up I used ~10gb from the whole trip.
