Does Glo BIS Work On Android Phones? by Nobody: 10:05am On Aug 16, 2016
Good morning,

Apparently, my BlackBerry Q5 has decided to stop functioning properly. I'm currently on a 3GB Monthly plan (Glo). Is it possible to use this plan on an Android phone (Samsung Galaxy S3)?

I called Glo Customer Care, I explained this to them. The lady said "Buy another phone, the issue isn't from Glo. You can't use a BlackBerry plan on an Android phone". I tried it, and it seems to work just fine on the Samsung, but I have no idea what the Data usage would be like. I wouldn't want to use up 3GB in 2 days (You know how Android is).

Is there anything else I could do?

What is Opera Max?

What is Opera Max?



it's an app to monitor your data consumption, restriction of other apps using your data, either at the background or foreground of your phone.

when you install it, open and go to settings, Tap App management in the main menu to customize each app's behavior and fine tune your phone's data consumption.

In the SAVINGS tab, tap an app from the list on the left to turn off Opera Max savings and prevent your traffic from being compressed by Opera servers. When Opera Max savings is blocked, the app will receive the full data load intended from its developers. You will no longer see any data savings from this app. Tap an app from the list on the right to unblock Opera Max savings.

In the MOBILE tab, tap an app from the list on the left to block it from accessing mobile data. Blocking apps from accessing mobile data may prevent apps from consuming data without your knowledge–for example during background updates or stalled actions that began on a Wi-Fi connection–and may extend your phone's battery life. Tap an app from the list on the right to unblock it.

In the WI-FI tab, tap an app from the list on the left to block it from accessing data through a Wi-Fi connection. Blocking apps from sending and receiving background requests over a Wi-Fi connection may extend your phone's battery life. Tap an app from the list on the right to unblock it.

Hope you understand now
