[HOW-TO]: A TIP to Receive SMS Notification (Tested on Celcom Network)

• •When you send an SMS, did you ever wonder whether the person at the other end have received your SMS or just ignore it?
• Here's a way to give you a notification when the SMS has been received safely (it will also notify when the person switched ON the phone)
• When you write an SMS, you can start with the first 3 characters *n#
• For example, you can send a message like this 

*n#How are you? Did you get the message for dinner tonite?

• Once the person received the SMS safely, you will get a notification (for example):

Message for +6019XXXXXXX, with identification 11022819XXXX has been delivered on 2011-02-28 at 19:13:23 

• Thus, there will be no reason for the person to say, he have not read the SMS or he switched off his phone etc.


• Can you guys try on other mobile operators and tell me whether it also works the same? 

HOW-TO: Avoid FACETIME iPhone 4 Waiting for Activation Error

It was earlier reported that most owners who have problem with "Waiting Activation Error" either because the devices are new (as compared to others who bought much earlier) or they have updated the "Carrier" during the Restore or Upgrade firmware process.

I suspected its due to "Carrier Update" because I encountered this message earlier today when I attempted to upgrade my Firmware to 4.2.1 but I chose to ignore. However, it proved to be wise because when I tested Facetime - it works!

I heard some iphone owners (Celcom customers) who chose to upgrade their "Carrier" is unable to get their Facetime feature back.

FACETIME iPhone 4 - Waiting for Activation Error

• •It seems quite a number of users a facing this problem.


• In Malaysia, there are many cases especially for Celcom subscribers. Officially - only Maxis and Digi are selling iPhone 4. Celcom has yet to officially launch their iPhone 4.


• My theory for those who are not able to get their Facetime activated is probably either due to the SMSC is unable to send the activation code to the users or Celcom is intentionally blocked this activation for the time being.


• Blocking Facetime activation is a way to deter customers from buying Celcom's competitors iPhone 4.


• That's my 2 cents worth of theory.


• I purchased the iPhone 4 months ago and have no problem activating Facetime on my Celcom line. I think this problem just recently occurred for the new users.

Truly Wireless Broadband

When you get yr Internet Download speed > 2 Mbps, I am sure you will be doubly happy. This is what happened to me when my Celcom colleagues helped to optimize the coverage at my place.
Just look at the speed tests results!!
