Hi,

  Does anybody have Spectranet's FTTH connection in Chennai? If so, could you share the area in which you have it along with speed  and ping tests to a US based server? Any comments on reliabiltiy and customer service would be great as well.

Thanks

Vimeo players cannot appear on domains running ads, its a decision we made in the beginning and have been going back and forth with allowing or disallowing it, but so far we cannot allow it unless it is with one of our partners. What keeps Vimeo different is it's content enforcement, which in turn helps foster a nice and caring community.

The content policy on commerciality is largely based on intent. We ask our users to ask themselves this question: "are you uploading these videos to make a profit?" if the answer is yes, then it most likely won't be allowed on vimeo.

You may not upload videos containing ads before or after the video, unless given prior written permission from an authorized member of the Vimeo staff. Videos with any advertisements in them, including links to commercial sites, regardless of content, will be removed.

You may not upload commercials, infomercials, or demos that actively sell or promote a product or service.

I just can't understand how DOCOMO managed to obtain 3G license with such pathetic 3G services. Their voice service is quite good, so no complaints about that. But DOCOMO's 3G service is almost non-existent in Karnataka (no idea about other circles).

My first issue is this ridiculous '40-minute auto disconnection' feature. I contacted customer care several times regarding this issue, but they always gave unsatisfactory responses. Finally when I sought customer support through online chat, a representative just copy-pasted the following:-

"We would like to inform you that we always strive to offer high quality services and connectivity to our esteemed subscribers. With an objective to avoid the discomfort to our subscribers due to bill shock at the end of billing tenure or excess balance deduction, the internet/GPRS session is designed to get disconnected after 40 minutes of session. This way we help you to avoid any excessive charges due internet usage abuse and GPRS/Internet session kept live ignorantly."

High quality services and connectivity? What a joke! The inside-secret is the DOCOMO's 3G infrastructure is so damn pathetic, so they have only a small number of connectivity slots available. When all these slots are filled by users, then new users will be unable to connect. Hence they have introduced this 40-minute auto disconnection, so that others users also get a chance to connect. They cleverly say it is to avoid 'bill shock', but everyone knows that it is just a lie. My company reimburses my 3G data costs, and I often need to make video calls exceeding their stupid 40 minute limit. Also, I don't understand this logic of 'bill shock' for people who have subscribed to a data pack.

The second issue is also connected to the first problem I mentioned. Due to DOCOMO's abysmal 3G infrastructure, it takes several attempts (usually 8 to 10 attempts) to connect to the internet at 3G speed. I contacted customer care for several months, but they failed to resolve this issue. Whenever I mention the issue, their common question was "What error message you get?". They don't even have the common sense to know that smartphones don't display any error messages. Only old Java handsets display those error messages. When I telll this to them, they say "how can we help you without knowing the error message?". Then they tell me to change APN settings, reinsert sim card, try the sim in a different handset etc., but nothing works. Finally, they just sent this stupid copy-paste response during online chat:-

"We would like to inform you that regarding the issue of GPRS we at Tata Docomo always strive to introduce products that are in sync with Customer requirements while ensuring that such products provide optimum value against the amounts spent by our esteemed customers. Such products, especially the data/internet usage products are dependent on various factors for accessibility and continuity, some of these factors being in our control and others beyond some factors beyond our control, but which hugely and adversely impact data usage can impact on the network and signal strength and therefore affect connection speeds/ continuity. At peak times when many people are using the network, connection speeds, and quality suffers. Also as with any network based on radio technology, handset quality or local conditions may prevent or interfere with network reception within coverage areas. However we do understand and regret the fact, that you have not had a favorable experience with the said product. For any assistance mail us at listen at tatadocomo .com"

As I mentioned previously, the reason for this is that DOCOMO's limited number of connectivity slots are almost always filled by other users, so I'm unable to connect until a slot becomes free. This is totally ridiculous.

Finally, the biggest problem. After repeated attempts to get my issues resolved with no results, they suggested me to write to the appellate officer(appellate.kk@tatadocomo.com). I did that, and got an automated reply within a few minutes, which said I would get a response within 2 working days. But I haven't got a response even after 5 working days (i excluded Saturday and Sunday). This means that there is probably no appellate officer at all for DOCOMO, and they are just maintaining a dummy appellate email id, just to send automated replies.

I agree that DOCOMO is unable to provide proper service due to its low costs. In such cases, I'm sure it would be more preferential for customers if DOCOMO hikes their prices to provide good service, rather than maintaining low prices but offering incorrigible services. I sincerely hope that Docomo does not win the 3G spectrum bidding in Karnataka during January 2014. As for me, I'll definitely be porting my number to a different operator after my current balance is exhausted.

So they're seeking limit of 5 free transactions within their ATMs too.

Stupid move I must say!  I mean it will indirectly force people to carry more cash which in turn increases risks.  Hope this is not cleared by RBI.

Movie is named 1? What does Nenokkadine mean? 

http://gadgets.ndtv.com/mobiles/news/gionee-elife-e6-full-hd-smartphone-launched-390704

The smartphone, which features a unibody design, sports a 5-inch OGS(One-Glass-Solution) AMOLED display with a resolution of 1080x1920 pixels and pixel density of 441ppi. The phone is extremely thin at just 6.18mm, and weighs 128 grams.

Gionee Elife E6 is powered by a 1.5GHz Mediatek quad-core processor, along with 2GB of RAM. The internal storage offered by the phone is 32GB. 

The Gionee Elife E6 sports a 13-megapixel auto focus rear camera, which also includes a second generation BSI sensor, along with an LED flash and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera with a 28mm lens. Both cameras support 1080p video recording.

The phone runs Android 4.2 with its own custom Amigo UI layer. The phone is powered by a 2020mAh battery.

It also features motion sensing features allowing users to answer phones by directly raising it up to their ears, answer calls by sweeping a hand over the screen, flip between pictures by a sweeping motion,and automatically play/pause videos when the user looks away from the screen, among other gestures. 

The Gionee ELIFE E6 is available in Black and White colour variants with matching colour cases. The phone will be available in China starting mid-July for a suggested price of CNY 2699 (Rs. 26,250 approximately). It will be available in India after August 2013, according to the company.

 

 

The government will shortly launch 'Netra', the defence ministry's internet spy system that will be capable of detecting words like 'attack', 'bomb', 'blast' or 'kill' in a matter of seconds from reams of tweets, status updates, emails, instant messaging transcripts, internet calls, blogs and forums.

The system will also be able to capture any dubious voice traffic passing through software such as Skype or Google Talk, says a telecom department note seen by ET. "Intelligence Bureau and Cabinet Secretariat are currently testing 'Netra', which will be deployed by all national security agencies," the note says. "The specifications of the 'Netra' system can be taken as frozen following tests by the Intelligence Bureau and Cabinet Secretariat, and can be considered for providing multiple user access to security agencies," it adds.

The 'Netra' internet surveillance system has been developed by Centre for Artificial Intelligence & Robotics (CAIR), a lab under Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO).
