Yes, Telenor 3G is different from 2G. The Telenor 3G network will run on best in class HSPA+ technology to give subscribers access to high speed internet, video calls and a richer multimedia experience within 3G coverage areas.

How do I activate Telenor 3G?
There is no activation mechanism. Telenor 3G is on by default. To use Telenor 3G, you simply need to be in a 3G coverage area and have a 3G capable handset.

What speed will I get on Telenor 3G?
Speed varies with a number of factors, including the handset, coverage, network traffic and number of users accessing the 3G network at a particular point of time. However, as Telenor 3G utilizes the best in line HSPA+ technology, it can provide best in line quality, fulfilling your need for speed.

Will Telenor 3G network coverage be available across the country?
Telenor Pakistan is a 100% 3G-ready company and it will bring coverage in your city/area as soon as possible.

How can I check if I am in a 3G coverage area? 
You can dial *7799# to check if you are in a 3G coverage area. You will receive confirmation over SMS.

What is the Video Call option on Telenor 3G?
There are certain handsets that support video call functionality. If you have such a handset you will be able to make video calls via Telenor 3G.

Which handsets are compatible with the 3G network?
Most smartphones are compatible with the 3G network but not every smartphone, despite its high price, will necessarily support all features of 3G. Manufacturers develop mobile stations with versatile features at their own discretion. Technically, R99, HSPA and HSPA+ supported handsets are compatible with the 3G network. Theoretically, all 3G-enabled smart devices should support voice & data with different speed levels, but not all handsets support video telephony service. Mobile applications like Skype can remedy such limitations.

How will I know if my handset is 3G compatible?
If you are in a Telenor 3G network area and your handset shows “3G” ,“H” or “H+” on the top of the screen next to the network signal bars, it means that the phone is 3G compatible and you can use 3G services. Subscribers must ensure that their phone settings are not set to ‘2G only’. There are 2 types of handsets – WCDMA (R99) & HSPA. WCDMA or R99 devices are 3G devices but support low 3G speeds. HSPA devices are high speed devices.

TROUBLESHOOTING 
3G is enabled on my phone but I still get 2G/E on my phone?
Check the Telenor 3G Network coverage MAP or dial *7799#. It might be the case that 3G is currently unavailable in that area. Rest assured, it will be available soon.

What happens when I move out of Telenor 3G coverage?
When you move out of 3G coverage, you will be transferred seamlessly to GPRS or EDGE depending on service availability. However, you will experience slower data speed on 2G and EDGE
What will happen if I change my Price Plan after activation of Telenor 3G Bundles?
Telenor 3G Bundles will be deactivated, but Telenor 3G will remain enabled. You will need to re-subscribe to Telenor 3G Bundles.

How can I disable 3G if I do not want to use 3G?
There are currently two options you can choose from:
1) Call 345 to get your 3G service disabled
2) Change your phone settings to disable 3G and apply 2G settings only.

Enjoy free Telenor 3G Internet trial in selected areas of Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad and Rawalpindi. Dial *7799# to check if you are in the coverage area.
