Hi. I bought a tele nor sim last day. I am from faisalabad. Here tele nor was launched yester day. Voice quality is very good. But rates are high on the same net work as its 3.99 while jazz offer 3.50 and u phone offer the 3.00 rupee per minutes. But on fix lines and other net works its cheap to call so over all good package.

Yeah, as far as the tarrif is concerned, ufone has taken the lead. Gprs rates were expected to lower down with the intro of telenor, but both are asking 15 bucks per mb still.

Well friend last day the gprs was not working here in faisalabad. At least in my area it was not working. today it started but then agile messenger is not sign in. And most funny that the tele nor home page is not opening . But other sites are opening and its way way fast than the u phone gprs in browsing. As i was using the u phone gprs for last one year as i live in hostel where there are no phone lines allowed. But i used some 1200 kb and they deducted some 40 rupees so i think they are charging some more than the 15 rupee per mb. Any way if any one know about these problems. specially over charging in the gprs rates and agile messenger sign in issue answer here soon. Thanks in advance.

Hi again. Forgot to mention that telenor SMS is also expensive as compared to others as u phone and mobilink are charging 1 rupee per sms on there own net works and it will cast 1.50 rupees on any net work including its own. MMS as is only offered by u phone so tele nor has edge in it send in 5 rupee and receive is free. u phone charge 5 rupee for sending and 5 rupee for receiving. More over tele nor maximum size supported is 100 kb while u phone is 56 kb. So it has advantage in the MMS. I live at a closed surroundings where both ufone and mobilink had voice problems i mean distoreded voice i had to go out of room to listen calls some times due to very poor sound quailtz but tele nor voice is good so far. Ok guys see you soon

The following might help you to run agile on telenor: The normal wap apn for ufone islamabad is ufone.piwap, and agile works on ufone.piinternet. So for telenor also you might need the internet apn. If you dont know it, you should ask their helpline.

I got myself a telenor connection yesterday.
I will be most obliged if someone can walk me through how to configure it for MMS on my I-Mate Pda2k.
I have been able to connect to the internet and use my i-mate web browser. For this I created a connection by the name of Telenor having an APN as "Internet".
However no matter what I do, I cannot get my i-mate to use Telenor for MMS messaging.
Please help
Very best wishes

Hi again. Thanks for answering so soon. I visited the telenor site again there were three kind of settings for 6600. wap internet and mms. Previously i was using the wap and it was able to work with the built in browser that is under name of services. But was unable to use the opera and agile messenger. Now i got the inter net settings also and when i select them then i am able to connect the agile messenger and the opera browser by using those settings. When i use services and agile messenger together then multiple connections to the wap and internet are created and both work fine. More over after configering with pc as modem i can use the all three connections i mean wap , internet and the modem and they all three work fine. Tele nor gprs is great. But when it works all ok because it is getting dc more than the u phone but hope they will fix that problem.

Hi raza. I do not use the mms. Because i use the agile messenger option to transfer the pictures with my friends. Because i do not like to pay some company for mms when i can transfer for free. So i do not know about the mms setting much. As you said you tried every possible settings but nothing worked. but hope some one will pop up to help you soon or keep on calling on the customrs support until they tell you some thing although they are usually so un informed that we know more than them usually.

Telenor have problems with the mobilink. I am unable to send sms to any of jazz user on my contact list. Also calls to some persons with jazz are not connecting. I called there customer support and they say that yes problem is there and we are working on it to solve it. I mean its insane that you launch your service and it does not work accordingly with an other company which cover the 52 percent of that country market. What ever hope they fix it soon.
