Everything is possible on NSG bro. That's why I rooted my Samsung device during this spectrum addition time even though Knox will be triggered.

On NSG will it display the type of gear used???? if yes on which window?

No, there are many signalling messages in NSG we have to read those to identify Vendor.

Airtel also has big leaps after spectrum addition in my area band 3 used to be below to 2mbps now it is always above 10mbps in download speed. Band 1 has increased from 10mbps to 25 mbps after spectrum addition. Band 40 is giving me 25 mbps which was same as before but there is no 40C enabled in my area neither they have changed the earfcn it is still 39150. Airtel does some black magic in their network speeds have increased where they didn’t add spectrum but the mystery is speeds in b40 is the same . Overall it has become better so no complaints. Still the situation perplexes me.

What is status about Airtel and Jio in MH. Is new spectrum deployed.

Airtel bought (2.5 MHz) Band 5 and (10 MHz) Band 40
Jio bought (10 MHz) Band 5, (5 MHz) Band 3 and (10 MHz) Band 40.

Jio has deployed B3 10MHz and Airtel has started deploying B5 5MHz in MH but it will take over a year to reach all areas

Anyone from Kerala have any update about airtel's band 8 deployment ??? They turned of band 40 in my nearest tower for some reason
Has anyone got band 8 deployed in their area ??

@Ajmal9294 nope they didn't deploy it ,I have checked ,I even tired to band lock into band 8 but noo signal

Also deploying band 8 is not an easy task like other bands which are already with airtel, they have to install new band 8 radio's for it as far as I know. And I don't think they will do it everywhere, probably they will deploy it dense populated cities areas mainly
