    3G - AIS

    My wifes phone has suddenly started flashing up the 3G logo.

    I thought it was a fault, but someone told me that AIS and DTAC are tialling 3G.

    I know nothing about this stuff....is it true?

    Is there another 3G option?

    If its flashing maybe its just searching for a 3G signal rather than connected?

    Like their gonna test it in Nakhon Nowhere.

    I didn't mean it was physically flashing, it is just on.

    TRUE has 3G coverage in Bangkok.

    But we all must be imagining it as no 3G licenses have been issued yet....

    My AIS has it here in CM. I just bought the phone and was wondering about that, it says it right there next to the signal bars.....

    I wonder why Thailand still bothers with 3G when they just start it now instead of skipping it and going directly to LTE/4G.

    I guess you were looking at your phone a lot more whilst the rugby was on?
