Trend T786 and My Experience
March 14, 2008 – 4:34 pm | by mkm
This is really Perfect dual SIM GSM mobile phone. I am using Trend Mobiles T786 since October 2007. This is excellent mobile phone which have ability to work with two GSM SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) at once without any trouble.
I am using this set with my two different Mobile phone provider which are Mobilink and Warid Telecom and never faced any problem in network. It provides excellent reception even in the basement.
It have the following features:
Dual SIM including Keypad & Touch Screen system.
- Dual Band GSM 900/1800 MHz
- Weight: 94gm
- Screen: 65K Color LCD 160×128 pixels
Its talk time is up to 2.5 to 3 hour easily.
You can hold & swap the calls.
- Camera: 1.3 Mega Pixel
- USB Port Connectivity
- SMS, MMS and Email
- GPRS
- WAP 2.0
- Embedded Antenna
- MP3& MP4 Player
- Video Recording with Playback
- Voice Recorder
- Video Screen Saver & Ring Tones
Other Accessories
- 256 MB Memory Card
- USB Datab Cable
- Earphone
- Traveller Charger
- User Manual
- Car Charger
- Pouch
Only one thing that you can use GPRS & WAP only on SIM1. But SIM2 can use for phone, SMS, GSM.
Now a days, another version of T786 is available which is T786i.

Well, i have been always reluctant in using any mobile set other than Nokia. But it is good to know about the performance of some new brands.
I pray Nokia also introduce a mobile with a dual SIM option.

I just bought this Trend T786i and nobody knows what operating system is installed in the phone. And the TREND people also told me i cannot install any software in the phone. What do you say ?

Aamir you are right.. I can’t install software on my T786. As this has basic features and i thought this Mobile is good with 2 SIMS for the telephonic purpose.
Also in Pakistan Mobile companies has not setting for this set. I went to Mobilink & Warid Telecome office but they said they have not settings for this Mobile SET.

That sucks that you can’t use GPRS on it cuz of the lack of settings.
Anyway, how much did u paid for it? I am also thinking of buying a dualsim phone. Is it worth buying this or should i stick with carrying to branded phones?

Is it possible to use gprs and voice calls at the same time on seprate sims?

@Irshad Ahmed
unfortunately, You can’t run GPRS on both SIMS at once. This service is only available on SIM 1.
But you can make voice calls on both SIMS at once. As both SIMs are active and you can receive and make call on both SIMs… but off course, you have to set ON HOLD to one call then receive or do call on other SIM.

If Trend T786i is similar to T786 and these tones are coming from storage card then it is very easy to replace/delete the tones. Simply connect phone to your computer and modify your require section.

I used the first model of dual sim Trend mobile T 500. But I had bad experience with that.
I want to purchase T786i, Please suggest me honestly should I go for it. Can I activate GPRS facility on it.

i just bought this T786i and i m going to sale it … i bought it at cost of Rs. 12,000/- its totally a Chinese phone with very bad graphics … no flash for camera and quality of so called 2MG PIX cam is bad … secondly whenever somebody call me on any of my sims they complaint about hearing their own voice like echo … this was my worst choice ever and i will never recommend anybody to use this cell phone again ever … plus … their customer support is useless .. they dont reply to any emails or calls … they have virus on their website i have also sent email with attached images of that virus but nobody replied me … this mobile sucks

How should I contact you for GPRS problems in this set as you mentioned yourself that pakistani telco companies donot have settings for T786. How are you running GPRS then? I really need to run GPRS.
