So with the $40 unlimited plan, I'd still be charged Long Distance even if I was in Toronto under the Mobilicity network calling another Toronto number?

What about texting?

Thanks, this should be my last question :p

Nope for both, i called up mobilicity and talk to a store rep to double confirm :) . As long as you're inside a moblicity zone, don't matter where the hell you are in Canada if you're inside a mobilcity zone, it's free.

Ex: you have a vancouver number, travel to T.O. (i do that a few times a year.) and i use my cell to call a T.O. # or Vancouver #. It's still free.

any updates from mobilicity users?

evil_jigglypuff 12-09-2010 03:44 AM

I got fed up with the htc snap and went back to the store to report the problem. They offered to just replace the same phone or with something else. Upgraded to the 3g curve. Data and call quality is definitely faster and better. It just harder to text as the keyboard is smaller than on the snap.

insomniac 12-09-2010 08:47 AM

eh i never check this part of the forum
but i used mobilicity for a few days
i was on roaming in alot of places.
underfound parking lots, canada line and underground areas in general
3g speeds arnt bad tho. wouldnt mind using it if it was more reliable :/

EDIT: just read the last few pages
for cnd roaming is it free of charge when i text?

stereo12 12-09-2010 09:02 AM

you will see roaming in alot of places atm, because in the Mobilicity zone, normally the Rogers towers are off, atm, they are in the process of optimizing the network, leaving those towers on, therefore your phone will pick up the strongest signal avail, that being rogers hence the roaming.

if you leave it on manual search, and stick with Mobilicity, you will have a better idea of how good the coverage/reception is.

stereo12 12-09-2010 09:04 AM

btw, Data has been better lately,

every1 should whip out their phone and see how steady it is, any questions holler.

bcrdukes 12-09-2010 03:27 PM

What do you mean data is better? Please explain.

insomniac 12-09-2010 04:17 PM

^faster and stronger...

Data is slightly still pretty bad for me. Also went down in speed since yesterday. Before I was barely getting data but when I did it was ~1.75 mbps. Now I'm slightly better than barely getting data but speeds around 0.80 mbps.

Faster, I get it.

But stronger? Do you mean signal strength?

insomniac 12-09-2010 08:58 PM

^yep.. normally get 3 bars of signal at home but im at full bar (5) now.

meh ill go back to mobilicity in the spring or when it gets better..
cause sitting in the canada line will suck if theres no service.

Well, I do hope you understand how UMTS works.

A Node-B will shrink and expand its coverage footprint depending on the amount of users (or phones) in the area. The more users, the smaller the coverage and as a domino effect, the slower your data speeds (relatively.) This is a feature called cell breathing and is based on power control on the serving cell site.

stereo12 12-09-2010 11:18 PM

the curve i have used to not be able to stream. it now works and confirmed in a forum in hofo.

the x10 i have started with intermittent internet. on off on off.

its been on pretty steadily with a 1 hour stream now, no problems. Couldnt stream longer cuz of the strain 4" does to the eyes.

but i do believe its gettin better day by day. I still have not had a dropped call actually.

stylez2k4 12-09-2010 11:32 PM

Heads up for people that signed up for mobilicity for the unlimited data, Wind is offering something similar.

$40

- Canada wide + US call
- global text

Supposed to start tomorrow and last until Dec 24th

^awesome especially when existing users can sign up too!

J____ 12-10-2010 01:38 AM

^ i'll be switching back to wind, mobi's lack of data service is just killing me haha.

MaximalLazy 12-10-2010 12:40 PM

The Always Shout promo is $45 on Wind's website, but on RFD it is $40.
