Available for verizon or others?

will the iphone ever be available for verizon or different companies?

One, the US is much larger than the UK and it takes time and money to deploy a 3G system over 4 million square miles compared to 93,000 square miles in the UK.
True, the USA has huge amounts of land with few people in it, but you can cover over 100 million people within an area of only about 35,000 square miles.
Two, most of the cell phones in the US are not flip phones.
The top three sellers are flip phones. Two RAZRs and the LG VX8300.
Three, MMS is more of a teenage/young adult thing in the US.
Yes, and an old thing. IIRC, surveys show that people between 25 and 55 are the least likely to use MMS because they were raised on email alone.

  • When will the iphone be available for Verizon?

    I know the iphone only currently works with At&t but does anyone know when it will be available for use on Verizon?

    Then what was Job's announcement about a month ago that he was going to make it available for other networks in February?
    Sorry but you misunderstood this announcement that you are referring to since it means nothing of the kind.
    What Apple is releasing in February for the iPhone is an iPhone SDK which is short for Software Developers Kit for 3rd party software development for the iPhone.
    This has nothing to do with the iPhone being available on other networks which can't occur for the next 5 years which is the length of Apple's contract with AT&T to be the exclusive provider for the iPhone in the U.S. Regardless, the iPhone is a GSM phone which means it can be used on GSM networks only. Not only is AT&T the largest network provider in the U.S. by the number of subscribers, they are the largest GSM network provider in the U.S. GSM networks dominate the overall worldwide market by a significant margin and even if Apple made the iPhone available for other network, the only other major GSM network provider in the U.S. is T-Mobile.
    Verizon, Sprint and Alltel have a CDMA network and the iPhone is not compatible with such networks. This would require Apple producing a CDMA iPhone in addition to the current GSM iPhone which I don't believe is likely even after Apple's 5 year contract with AT&T expires.

  • Kies available for Verizon Galaxy S4?

    I recently discovered Kies and loaded it to my PC.  It works just fine via USB, but during my education process, I discovered there is something called Kies Air that I thought was supposed to be on the phone already (Galaxy S4).  I cannot, however, find it anywhere.  I followed the Samsung Galaxy S4 manual, but it's not there.  I am on Verizon and my Android version is 4.3.  I have searched the forum and found at least one post that said they no longer had Kies Air after upgrading to 4.3.  I've also looked on the Samsung site and cannot find anywhere to download it.
    Any suggestions/comments?

    Thank you for the info, but the "Download App" link directs me to Google Play,
    and the app is not there.

  • New DSO data fields are not available for transformations in the upwardflow

    Hello,
    There are data flow from
        many source DSOs -> Target DSO -> Final DSO.
    Different transformations are defined and activated with DTPs. This works fine and provides the desired results.
    now new fields are added to the target DSO, final DSO and one of the source DSO.
    When I now try to edit the transformations, the new fields are not part of the sources at the different stage.
    The fields are available in the Data Source created out of a DSO but not directly when using a DSO as a data source.
    Have anyone faced such a problem?
    any solutions to this?
       - I cannot delete all the other transformations as this is too much work to do and there is no time for it.
    Regards
    Kannan

    We created ZMD_BS_MAT_OVP_LAYOUT. But the situation has not changed - the fields are not available for edit.

    When flash player will be available for samsung GT-S5670L?

    No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
    Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
    Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
    So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
    Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
    Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash.
    Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
    Apps that can display some Flash from the Web:
    Puffin
    SkyFire
    Photon Flash
    Browse2Go
    iSwifter
    Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."

  • When will SmartPrint be available for Chrome or Safari?

    I just found the offer to download Smartprint.......and then I see on the download page that it only works with Internet Explorer - not something I care to install on my Mac. 
    Will Smartprint be made available for Chrome or Safari anytime soon? 

    To the best of my knowledge, it is not available for any browser other than Internet Explorer.  Sorry.
    I am not aware of any plans to expand the support to other browsers, but I do not work on the engineering team to have privilege to this information.

    When will IOS 4 be available for the Verizon CDMA iPhone 4?

    There is no way to know such a thing unless Apple announces, which they very rarely do and speculation/rumor is not allowed here.
    Keep checking for updates in itunes or watch the forum.
    Someone will begin complaining about it within seconds of its release.

  • Verizon Safeguards "Not available for this cell phone number"

    I just learned from your support rep, that Verizon Safeguards service does not work with the iPhone!.  Under my Services under Verizon Safeguards, I get the following message: "Not available for this cell phone number".  You gotta be kidding me Verizon...really.
    I want to be able to use Verizon Safeguards and block calls a txt from specified numbers, like I have with every other phone I've had with Verizion!
    PLEASE, ADD SUPPORT FOR THE iPHONE.

    This is apparently a known issue, there are a few other threads on here. But I had a chat on here with a Verizon rep who said that they personally had numbers blocked on their iPhone4 and that it had to be done through Customer Care, which if you log on to MyVerizon, the number is under Support --> Contact Us. Who knows if it actually works.

    Hello,
    At this time, one can stream about 75 live TV channels  from the iPad, Xbox 360, LG Smart TV, and Samsung Smart TV.
    From the iPad, this is through the 'FiOS Mobile' app from the App store.
    For a list of channels available for Live TV on the aforementioned devices, you can go to either:
    http://www22.verizon.com/home/livetv and select the link 'See available channels'
    OR
    http://www22.verizon.com/home/fiostv/features#connect and select the link 'your favorite TV channels'.
    Keep in mind that you have to be subscribed to the selected TV channel in your FiOS TV package in order to watch that channel live.
    Also, as PJL has mentioned, the live TV streaming would work only if connected to your residential home network. 
    Lastly, if you'd like to submit the suggestion to include international channels to live TV streaming on the iPad (and other devices), you can do so via Verizon Idea Exchange.
    Suggestions for any Verizon service/product/offering on the internet, telephone or TV can be made in the 'Idea Exchange' section of the Verizon Community Forums where it'll be noticed more by other Verizon community members as well as Verizon employees who can bring up individual ideas to the appropriate teams.
    Also, forum members can vote on the posted idea for greater emphasis.
    Please see:
