| ![]() Do we even have 4G in India? Or are there any plans for 4G in India? From what I have heard even the 3G experience is quite patchy. |

Of course I could be wrong. If there is a 'technical' reason why this would not work do enlighten us. | |

| ![]() Airtel has launched 4G; not sure if they are going to support 4G on the iPhone 5 http://www.airtel.in/4g-lte/tariffs.html#4G The rates seem fine for a new technology like 4G. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Hi, It's been discussed a few pages back. We are not on the same band due to defense and other issues with respect to airwaves. Our 4G is not third world or anything of that sorts. It's about speed and we will get the same 100mbps on 4G. Pune/Bangalore and Kolkata have 4G of what I know from Airtel. LTE is just an evolution of 3G and thus a new radio transmitter and receiver that is different than European, Japanese and US band. HK's one mobile carrier and Chinese too have a similar band similar to India. 2300 MHz than 2100 MHz that's the difference. Thus beware of what you buy, if you don't know and buy is different than if you know and still buy a handset that will be incompatible in future. Cheers! |

What you are talking of is a distinct data plan applicable along with voice plan on a phone. The service is available, provided you can get Airtel to give you the correct plan on your phone. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() For More details on LTE. iPhone LTE Frequency Bands. http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/ Model A1429 might be working in India, but there's no Indian Specific Model. As of now, Airtel LTE is using Band 40 2300 MHz http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks |

There are hardly 4-5 countries worldwide providing 4G on the only 2300 MHz frequency as India. Hong Kong does have the same 2300 MHz band just as india but also has the 1800 MHz one on which the iPhone 5 works. Quote:

| ![]() Indian 4G wont work with iPhones, till Govt changes its policies. I had done a fair amount of research. Problem is the frequency range which for whatever reason is quite different. |

| ![]() I came across an ad on the net today. For people looking to buy iphone5 - the following site is seeling it for 40,800 with Apple India warranty: http://www.timtara.com/products/Appl...FQSg4Aod4GoAVQ# Basically there is some sort of a coupon one has to apply to get this price. The coupon is on the site itself. Mods: I have no links whatsoever with the above site and am posting this as it seems a good offer to benefit fellow members. Please delete this post if it violates any forum rules. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Hi All, I have done a blunder by pouring some 10 drops of Nail Enamel remover to clean the Home Button. I had done it before too and made the Home Button worked better. But, This time i have used some more drops resulted Grey Patches in the entire Screen and some of them has already disappeared and other Grey Color Area turned light. But still some Smudges has persisted in the screen. I have tried drying it by Hair Dryer and on reading some forum , i kept it in the Fridge to clear the condensation. Nothing helps till now. But it clears itself day by day automatically. The iPhone 4 is out of warranty and I have been using it since last 2 years. I am unable to get some solution for this on googling. if anyone has had any idea to clear the Grey Smudges, Please let me know. |
