  • How to Check Jio Data, SMS & Call Balance without My Jio App by SMS

    Jio has become India’s leading Mobile service provider by its extensive use of high-speed data network and the latest 4G LTE technology. Though, this technology has good benefits when it comes to high-quality HD calls by VoLTE (Voice Over Long Term Evolution). It has a few drawbacks too, such as we cannot dial USSD codes example *123# type numbers by phone. Thus, we need to be dependent on My Jio App to track our Data usage.

    But My Jio App also has drawbacks such as the Data remaining isn’t shown instantly, as well as the app is too slow to load. Hence, in this tutorial, we will cover How to easily check Jio Data Balance, (Internet), SMS and Call balance without My Jio app by sending a simple SMS. This method is also helpful if your My Jio app isn’t working or gets hang.

    Tutorial to check Jio Internet balance (data), call minutes without using App [ My Jio ]

    • We just need to send a free SMS to check the Balance on Jio.
    • Go to Messages and Create a New Message.
    • In the Sender field, the number to whom we need to send SMS is “199”. i.e We need to message 199
    • The Text to get Balance details is “BAL” .
    • Thus, you need to type the message as shown in the following image
      SMS Text to Send to Jio to check balance Validity
      SMS Text to Send to Jio to check balance Validity

      Once you have typed the message “BAL” in the capital letters. Simply Tap on the Send button.

    • You will soon receive a SMS showing your Balance validity, and Data Remaining for the day as shown –

      Note – Unlike My Jio app, the data remaining shown here is instant and thus you can effectively track your data usage better.

  • Use GoogleWebLight.com to speed up website loading time! & reduce data consumption on your mobile (Android/iOS) and PC too!

    Use GoogleWebLight.com to speed up website loading time! & reduce data consumption on your mobile (Android/iOS) and PC too!

    Many times our cellular data connection’s speed is quite slow be it 2G or 3G , which hampers the loading speed or even simple loading of a website on our mobile devices. Some websites even have some type of ads, which don’t let users view content without clicking on “Skip ad” and some even fail to show the content despite clicking on the ad(e.g mobile.ndtv.com) , or many websites simply put too many images affecting the loading time on our cellphones. All of these combined simply hampers our browsing and reading experience, but not any more – Google light web, or google lite search as its called helps overcome these problems by simply parsing a website’s pages in a mobile-friendly readable format.

    If you’re a webmaster you might have come across traffic from sources such as icl.googleusercontent.com , or googleweblight.com . These are nothing but search traffic with your website optimized for mobile viewing by Google, and you can use the above google URLs to even transcode any other website traffic on your slow/data intensive cellular network to save extra data costs and reduce loading time.

    Method to use GoogleWebLight.com and icl.googleusercontent.com to view optimised websites –

    google light web
    • Simply prepend (write before the actual URL) the following URL strings to load the website in Google optimized mobile format –http://googleweblight.com/?lite_url=http://http://icl.googleusercontent.com/?lite_url=http:// 
    • For e.g if you want to visit our blog techapple.net through the Google mobile transcoder , simply enter –
      http://googleweblight.com/?lite_url=https://techapple.net
      in your browser and voila! it will load techapple.net in mobile optimized format!. (You can check out the alongside image for url prepend format)
    • Similarly you can use it to view other websites too in mobile optimized format , ex
      http://icl.googleusercontent.com/?lite_url=http://www.firstpost.com ,
      http://googleweblight.com/?lite_url=http://mobile.ndtv.com etc.
    • Thus, you can now save on traffic as well as reduce consumption time on any websites you like to visit .
    • You can also use these transcoders on your Desktop / PC as well as if your visited website loading is very slow , and its taking a high time to load.

    Note – If you are an Android user , you can check out the below tutorial to allow internet access only to selected app & restricting other apps background data to access Internet, thus saving your data consumption – Click here for tutorial to allow access to only selected apps on Android using Android Firewall

    Sadly, https requiring websites aren’t fully supported yet by Google transcoder, nor video/active javascript content ones , but nevertheless its a great tool and way to speed-up loading and if all you’re interested in is reading content, the transcoder makes it a pleasure reading the content of websites. Do feel to comment your views and problems faced while using Google Light web (googleweblight.com) transcoding services.

  • How to Port your Mobile number from one State/Circle to other | Change mobile number circle & Avoid/No Roaming Charges 🙂

    Yes !!  You heard it right 🙂 Telecom / Mobile Subscribers or mobile users in India can get cancellation of their intra-circle roaming charges or avoid them totally ! as per the NTP [ National Telecom Policy] To be adopted by TRAI by 13 th May 2012 

    According to the NTP, a subscriber would be able to change his operator and at the same time retain his number, even if he moves to another state/circle. Thus the Mobile Number Will be Same but
    its Base/Home Circle Will be Ported resulting in cut off of roaming .

    Here’s how you can port your existing mobile number from one state/circle to another –

    1. To begin with, you need to generate UPC (Unique Porting Code) by sending SMS to 1900. UPC is an alphanumeric code allocated, upon request, by a mobile operator to its subscriber for the purpose of facilitation of porting of his/her mobile number to another operator.

      • SMS to be sent : PORT <your Mobile Number> to 1900. Operator SMS charges will be applicable.
      • Eg. SMS PORT 98XXXXXXXX to 1900
    2. After sending SMS to 1900, you will receive UPC (Unique Porting Code) as a SMS from 1901 giving 8 digit alpha-numeric Unique Porting Code (UPC) and UPC expiry date in MM/DD/YYYY format

    3. Visit your nearest Simcard outlet / showroom and submit a new card if you’re switching operator .

    4. Now , Fill up Mobile Number Porting (MNP) form providing details like

      • Current Mobile Number
      • Current Operator name
      • UPC code
    5. Submit Address & Id proof documents, self-attested photo and last bill copy of postpaid connection (if applicable) along-with filled MNP form and Customer Agreement Form.

    6. That’s it!

    Considering the Large success of MNP, Till the end of March, close to 42  million subscribers had opted for MNP, according to TRAI .. its quite a big step.. because now a subscriber can not only change his mobile operator/ but also his circle to avoid the roaming Charges

    Last Time MNP infused a tariff war / race to pull up each others subscribers into own Operating services.. NTP implemented MCP [Mobile Circle Portability] Or MNCP [Mobile Number Circle Portability] will surely ignite a new war between operators , I Hope this results not only in Lowering of tariff Rates , but Increase in the Quality Of Service Provided such as Network, Congestion Free Nature etc .. Let’s keep our Fingers Crossed Upon it 🙂
