Default Say Bye Bye To China Phones

Say bye bye to china phones.Indian Telecoms department had decided to ban china phones in India bye Rejecting the phone's request to register in any mobile network.Reason for the ban is that it have no imie and hence tracing of these phones will not be possible.The imie no of these kinda phones are easily editable too.So for the national security, not only china phones any mobile phone without proper imie will be useless.

May Rest in Peace Crapy ugly F%*&^&% China phones...

Default Re: Say Bye Bye To China Phones

this is extraordinary news and move by gov...

i was thinking of this for some time ...

more over china want to fill our nation with plastic.. and waste of thiers... who needs em..

but the ones who will be affected will be ones who have bought it .. coz they are mostly lower middle class people who would have bought those phones with great difficuty and now when they find it they cant use .. it will come as a lightening for them...

but this really great.... on the ground of imie , national security , environmental way...

Its nothing extraordinary :/

Its just the way to watch out for security reasons. Sometimes its required to trace the location of a perpetrator to save lives.

simple, chinese mobile phones with IMEI number lock into India market. They will always find ways to sell product in mass markets like India and Japan.

What I mean is that chinese manufacturers will release mobiles with fixed IMEI number like Nokia/SE/...

That way they will not be banned

i doubt it bro..

1.) they are MASS PRODUCING IT ... its not like nokia or se or moto ( they are spamming the world with cheap phones)

2.) I think ( i think ) they may need to procure some licenses inorder give unique IMEI no to each phone ( i am not sure on this point though )

3.) just tell me some one , if they are going to give imei no .. wont it make a phone liable to induce copyrights, patents , which will agian make the phone price jump out of roof

^^ Not license. They have to submit the phone design and h/w info to FCC for getting approval to manufacture the phone.

ok if they are going to submit tol these FCC or any org for approval then along with it they should provide all the respective patent and other stuff....

so they cant install unique IMEI no to phones...

one thing customers can do is install IMEI no available over the net.. i mean the hacked ones and install it ....

i think thats how these blackmarket guys gona do...

take for eg.. they could easily get IMEI no they sell from the original piece... so if they sell 500 original , they could repliciate the IMEI no. which is i think will be printed on the side of the box...

no patent fee, license fee for all those technology involved in the phone ...

remmebr one thing though .. manufacturing all gadgets, electronic items are damn cheapp.... only thing that rises the price is are those licenses, patents etc...

thats why they are able to give u cheap phones

People are worried on E-waste and other stuff. China is number one culprit. Exporting lowest quality products and materials all over the world. Not just the phones but everything.

Blame the countries (including India and US) for allowing import of these cheap low quality products from China. All these will become waste in a short time.

I am not against China or any other country, but products from China are really bad and of low quality, no doubt in that.

Agree.
They sell their products at very cheap rates, which result in people buying them in more quantity than they actually need, and their life time is nothing as compared to branded phones. Both these factors result in increase in e-waste most of which is dumped in India.
Their SAR ratings are also more than the prescribed limits.

But these middle class people are more attracted to these kinda crapy electronic gadgets made in china and they are promoting the sale of these craps in our market.How can we completely remove their products in our country.once i Bought a CFL light made in china which cost me only 40rs but it cannot last for one day..and same case in their AA batteries..what do you think guys..?
