3G is quite fast. Browsing is almost instantaneous. Only thing slowing you down would b your phone browser which eventually slows down when too many tabs n heavy websites r open.

 

Btw right now I hit 2.7mbps download speed. But maybe coz its early morning. Will see how it goes in the day again. Fb twitter etc also refresh faster. My email is push so makes no difference. Most difference comes if u use RSS and while browsing. Browsing on edge was a plain PITA.

 

Took the flexishield plan. Makes most sense to me.

What does HeyTell do btw. Been seeing a lotta articles bout it.

 

Took the plunge with airtel 3G. Decent performance so far. Huge improvement from edge (duh). Getting speeds of 1000-1100 kbps. Falls to 900 sometimes. Decent i guess. No idea what'll happen when congestions starts off.

Has it launched officially there or are you in one of those experience zones thingy?

On vodafone? I heard this happen before on a particular plan.

 

 

You mean the 98 plan on Vodafone that lets you use ONLY the browser. They changed it a few months ago to let you use any application if you throw in a 98 booster/ bonus card. I'm using that on EDGE.

I didn't either. Looking at a thread about it on XDA it seems the app has popped up and disappeared and popped up again once before too. So try again later.

 

You can get the apk file here - http://getandroidstuff.com/heytell-andorid-download-app-pushtotalk-pttt-3g4gwifi/ . Hope this ain't against the rules because the app is free anyway. Might as well just download the apk and install it if you want to give it a try.

How much time does it take to start off, like when you're on edge and you want to check something it takes a while to connect first. Does 3G have the same thing?

edit: and just 1000? at the start? that's disappointing. Just 3 times faster than edge. :angry:

:huh: I dont have any such delay with EDGE. It is always connected for me and anything is instantaneous

Yeah? Weird, I've downloaded tons of apps. R u on the Rs 98/2GB edge plan?

afaik there's no limit and I don't know my plan. there's another question I have regarding SMS - sometimes my sms' are bunched in threads even if they are from different senders. any idea?

This happens to me too but only with Bulk SMS. Probably the ones bunched together are using the same provider..
