Well, the second bit of my security deposit got received today, and my International Dialing works as well, but only after texting them on 3111 which took them about 4 hours to activate it.

Will wait and see by tonight if LTE works or not, otherwise, I will get that guys number (the office CSR) and call him up to see if he can do anything.
No need to be so desperate. Just w days left in Dec 1 for 3G level LTE launch ?

Did you get any sms that LTE services has been activated against your number? If not than LTE is not activated and they are telling lie. Ask them again that how can you you say LTE is activate when it is not working. Tell them your phone model and maker and that LTE is not working nor you receive any sms. Check again. Use some harsh words as well. [emoji14]

I just dropped by the Mobilink office [MENTION=36166]iNCEPTiON[/MENTION] to get my 4g issue sorted. I'm waiting in line for my turn.

Fingers crossed.

It's done!



They were closing the center and in a rush, but I waited. While I was waiting for my change, 4g got enabled in between.

So here's the thing: I was told by the helpline that my SIM was 4G enabled, and that my number was also 4G enabled. Apparently, my SIM was only 3g enabled, but my number had 4G activated on it. They gave me a new SIM, charged me Rs. 100 cash, and activated 4G from their screens.

The screenshot above is the signal strength whilst I was at the entrance. You can see it says 410 01.

I decided to do a speed test (I'm right opposite Shahnawaz Motors), and this is what I managed to get (signal strength: -69dB and -71dB):


Look at the download rate on the top right corner - downloads peaked at 2.2MB/s. It was hovering around 1.4-1.7MB/s. (Edit: average went up to 1.7MB/s, depending on where my phone was placed vs. the shrubs).

That's almost the same as 3G. But then, I'm outside the building.

Ask away!

Hopefully, I'll have 4g signals at my house (where 3g fails).

Many many congratulations. Do some more speed test at different places and inform is there any place where it went beyond 20 Mbps. I have achieved more than 20 Mbps on Telenor 4G at many places in Fsd. But none on Mobilink LTE.

EDIT: I'm very confused right now. Don't know who's lying and who isn't.

Live Chat and 3111 and the CSR who issued my SIM when switching me to Postpaid said that ALL new SIMs being issued are LTE. The CSR who handed me my new SIM when I switched to postpaid said it's an LTE SIM.

I just called 111 who now tell me that my SIM is not LTE and that I have to go to the office to get an LTE Enabled SIM for 100 rs.

Whaaaat?

Luckily enough, a family member doesn't have an LTE SIM yet either, so will have to wait till the weekend when he's free from the office and I'm free from school to go and get yet ANOTHER SIM card.

There nothing exceptional seeing in Mobilink 4G for which some one has to be crazy about. So wait till official launch as even postpaid 3G is better than 4G in Mobilink case.

Check 3G speed as well. You might get better speed than this [emoji14]

Since I haven't shared Zong 4G speed test from many days. Here it is, Zong 4G MiFi in my room. This is called 4G.
For me 4G starts after 20 Mbps

Does mobilink have better internet offers than zong?

Like you literally need 160 rs load in your sim to apply for Zong 2gb weekly and the daytime and nighttime offers are very out of time.

But i love the zong 500 rs monthly all in one. Its best offer on any network out there

Still Zong have best packages among all. Have you checked Mobilink/Warid and Telenor Packages? Telenor is giving 350 MB in day time offer and Zong is giving 1 GB in same price. There is no package of any company to compete Zong's weekly package in Rs 100 (required recharge of around 140. No internet tax in Punjab here)
.
I like/subscribe Zong supreme offer instead of 500 all in one. It requires 750 recharge and give 3000 Zong minutes, 3000 sms, 3000 Mbs and 300 other network minutes.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
