Lack of voice and data at same time is killing me

after using a treo 750 (WM 6.1) on att for the last three years I guess I didn't realize the benefit of having ATT and gsm in general.  There are plenty of downsides...mainly pricing for single accounts (however their family plan was directly on par with sprint's).  I am constantly trying to use data apps while talking on the phone to no avail.  I started off just thinking I could do without, but a week later, I still really really miss it.  My wife does too...as it is her I am usually giving directions or other web information to while on the phone.  There was nothing like google map's satellite view to help someone verify they are at the right place..."see a large tree on your right with a tall brown building behind it, yep that's the one"   Anyone else have this feeling?  Wifi isn't an option for me most of the time.

Voice and data simultaneously is not available while using any CDMA network due to network limitations. This is true for all types of phones, not just Palm or not just the Pre. Your example of checking email or using google maps, the gps data may have been stored before activating the call. try browsing the web while making a call, and try to go to a web page you've never visited before, so that you know it can't be a cashed version of the page.

  • How do you use voice and data at same time?

    I'm on a call and need to look up data from a file also on my phone. What's the simplest and most effective way to simultaneously do this? Thanks in advance.

    If you're with Verizon, you can only do this in a wifi area.
    The simplest way is to tap the home button and then tap the icon of what you want to do. You'll either have to use speakerphone or an earpiece in order to see the screen .

  • Why does Verizon hide the fact on their network an iPhone cannot deliver simultaneous voice and data

    For me the breaking point was when the local Corporate Store clerk lied to be about their return policy.  He even documented the information he gave me and that didn't matter to management or corporate.  I made a decision to switch to the iPhone and was specifically told I had 30 days to evaluate weather I could make the transition from android to iOS.  If I couldn’t for any reason, I could just return the phone and pay the $35 restocking fee and we were then free to choose from one of the many androids.
    After weeks of challenges and countless hours spent with first tier then second tier then a product specialist we all came to the documented conclusion that the iPhone, on Verizons network could not support data and voice at the same time... Every other smart phone on Verizons network could and always has... the IPhone on ATT's network can support both voice and data at once... but Not On Verizons network...
    Each tech I spoke with seemed shocked and in utter disbelief that this could be so. They blamed ATT for harboring special privileges hold over from their exclusive relationship with Apple.  Which is not true.  Then they blamed Apple for delivering handicapped phones to Verizon on purpose. Well, with an Apple Product Manager on the phone listening in on a Verizon Tech giving me this among other excuses why I could not be on the phone and using google at the same time,  the Apple Rep finally jumped in and very politely cleared up any miss information the Verizon tier 2 support rep was fumbling out.
    So after I had done everything in my power to make the phone work the way I had understood it would.  And had every reason to believe it would.  As did every Verizon rep I spoke with at first until they did a little research and found Verizon had deliberately been hiding this fact from customers.  So I conceded to go back to the Android world for now and let Verizon sort out this glaring deficit hopefully in the near future…  Though every support rep concluded that there was no mention of this being fixed or even a problem so not to hold my breath…
    I couldn’t have been more shocked or infuriated when I went to exchange the “still in the plastic mint condition iPhone” I was told I had to have brought it back in the first 14 days… I pleaded and argued, even directed the manager to the notes entered in verizon’s own support documentation regarding my case and he said “well I see here where you were told that but that rep was wrong”.   That may be so but I based my entire testing and evaluation timeline based on the dates the rep clearly and admittedly told me!   The store manager said there was nothing he could do. 
    Now I mentioned I’m a Network Solutions Provider and being able to be on the phone doing a support call and using my cellular internet at the same time are an absolute must for me to be able to preform my job.  Every Verizon smart phone I have ever owned had been able to do this.  Now I am told I am STUCK in a two year contract with an inadequate  device that I cannot exchange and therefore functionally useless to me. 
    Verizon corporate nor the store manager cared one bit about my position.  They stood behind a little register tape that by signing my credit card receipt I now owed them two more years of my life and now they could care less weather I had a functioning solution or that I had been a loyal customer for over 17 years. Or that I had brought entire small business offices to them for cell services. Just stood there and held a copy of my receipt and said, well  you signed it so here is what it will cost ya to get out of it! 
    He got out a calculator and started running numbers for what I would have to pay to fix this situation… What I would have to pay to even leave Verizon and go get cell service from someone else.  It felt dirty … seedy… like being at some 3rd world used car lot where some shyster had gotten someone wrapped up in a contract and now was going to squeeze the life out of a customer even though they couldn’t’ even deliver the service they implied you were going to get in the first place. 
    In 30 years of being a small business owner I have never encountered an organization that had less integrity or more unscrupulous business practices… 
    I see post after post of Verizon  Customer Support  reps answering threads… funny I haven’t found one where a user honestly thanks the rep for actually helping them out…….  Please Verizon Customer Support, show me you actually can look at a situation and see an equitable solution where a Customer and the Share Holders can both win…..

    Well if this information was as ubiquitous on the web as you suggest, I am puzzled why it took three weeks of troubleshooting with many levels of Verizon support before we collectively concluded this was the situation...
    Regarding Reading what I sign... Thanks for that advice though in this situation I was handed a stylus and told to sign a Signature Pad at the check out counter... ONLY AFTER I signed (for the purchase only)  was I presented with this return policy conveniently nested in a 3 foot long reciept consisting of paragraphs of Helvitica 6 type set info...   I made the assumption that the sales person could correctly  answer a direct question regarding the policy I  inadvertently signed for when authorizing the credit card charge...   Even more concerning is that when by my actions and constant communications with Verizon, my intent was clearly based on the information I had gotten from the sales rep.  and if I was given misinformation it would seem Verizon could show some integrity and support the situation with some equitable solution rather than hiding behind contracts collected from sales staff who do not tell customers the truth.....

  • Nsert/Update and Add Column at the same Table and at the "same" Time

    Hello,
    I want Insert/Update and Add Column at the same Table and at the "same" Time but in different sessions.
    Example:
    At first the "insert/update" statement:
    Insert into TestTable (Testid,Value) values (1,5105);
    After that the "add" statement:
    Alter table TestTable add TestColumn number;
    - sadly now I get the message: ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified
    "insert/update" statement:
    Insert into TestTable (Testid,Value) values (2,1135);
    After that the execute commit.
    I don't know when the first session set the commit statement so I want that the DB the "Alter Table..." statement execute if it's possible.
    If it's possible I want to save a repeat loop with the "Alter Table..." statemtent.
    Thanks for ideas

    Well I want to walk in the rain without and umbrella and still stay dry, but it ain't gonna happen.
    You can't run a DDL statement against a table with transactions pending. Session 2 has to wait until session commits or rollbacks (or until the session is killed). That's just the way it is.
    This makes sense if you think about it. The data dictionary has to be consistent across all sessions. If session 2 was allowed to change the table structure whilst session 1 has a pending transaction then the database is in an inconsistent state. This is easier to see if you consider the reverse situation - the ALTER TABLE statement run by session 2 does a DROP COLUMN TESTID rather than adding a column: now what should happen to session 1's INSERT statement? You have retrospectively invalidated a statement that was perfectly legal when it was executed.
    If it's possible I want to save a repeat loop with the "Alter Table..." statemtent.Fnord.
    Cheers, APC

  • Droid Turbo - No simultaneous voice and data!

    I just received my new Droid Turbo last Friday and I discovered that it wasn't capable of simultaneous voice and data.  I believe it needs to receive an OTA update from Verizon to upgrade it to Advanced Calling 1.0.  I don't know when or if this update will come out.  I called Verizon support and they couldn't tell me anything either.
    Can anyone from Verizon on the forum comment on this?
    I have 14 days to return the phone so I would like to know what to expect.
    Thanks,
    Brian

    Of course I'm sure you mean "not user replaceable".
    The most popular phone series of all time has a battery which is "not user replaceable". This is not a new thing. If you want a phone which has a user replaceable battery, it would seem you should purchase one.

  • Is there a way I can stream video from my 2012 AirMac to the Apple TV using airplay and at the same time stream the audio to an air speaker?

    Is there a way stream video from a 2012 MacBook Air to a TV using Apple TV and at the same time steam the audio to an air speaker. Also the same question but using an ipad

    You can try one thing. Follow these steps:
    1. On your Mac, turn on AirPlay Mirroring and connect it to the Apple TV, so audio and video will stream from the Apple TV.
    2. Turn off the sound of the TV where you have connected the Apple TV.
    3. Then, make sure that you have turned on the AirPlay speakers. Then, open System Preferences > Sound > Output, and choose the external speakers, so sound will stream from these external speakers.
    This should work correctly

  • Recording Video and Audio at Same time with simultaneous sync

    I want to record a keyboard performance into garageband and at the same time record the playing of that performance with my video camera. Then I want to create a movie using the music from garageband and the video from the camera. I was thinking that if I can sync the video and audio when I'm recording the session, then that part is taken care of. Or, maybe this is easier than I think it is?
    Is there a way to do this so that I can use the garageband record performance and have it synced to the video on the camera?
    I don't want to use the audio from the video camera because the performance that is captured in Garageband will be much better and I can do editing of the individual notes in GB.
    In the end, I just want to make a movie and/or podcast of the performance.
    I'm a newbie regarding this, but I did search the forums and couldn't find anything specific. Mostly it was about importing video into GB3 and then syncing new audio. I'll basically have audio and video from the same performance in two separate locations and I want to bring them together perfectly in Garageband.
    Thanks for any help you can provide.
    Powerbook G4 - DVI   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Okay. I got the video and audio all together. I told you I'd link to it when it was up.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxssYpUNJm8
    There's also a copy of it at http://www.myspace.com/bonjimmy/
    And as a quick side comment, even though I uploaded the same video to both YouTube and MySpace, the MySpace version is much better. YouTube must do something to the video after it's uploaded.
    What I learned doing this project:
    I recorded the video first (which gave me the sequencing of the piano performance) and then I dubbed the audio in later. However, there wasn't a good way to sync the video and the prerecorded piano, so there are some spots where the dubbed audio vocal isn't accurate to the video. I'm not sure what the pros do for this. I was hoping I'd remember how I sang for the video but when a couple weeks go by before re-doing the audio, it's about impossible. I tried, though.
    I remember working with an old 4-track and smpte to a sequencer a long time ago. With the way it is now, it's pretty cool that you can record digitally and mix and match and everything falls together perfectly as long as you have a place to match the video and the audio. It's pretty cool.
    What else???
    Does anyone have suggestions that would have made it better? Also, if you have suggestions on my performance or whatever, I'd love comments, but you can do that on the linked page.
    Thanks again for all your help. (The point of the video is because I'm thinking about getting back out there and doing some more playing... I'm looking for a band or something else interesting...)

  • How to collect form responses in adobe formscentral and at the same time receive form responses through email

    My client wants to have the form that I created in FormsCentral to be able to collect email responses. So to do this, I downloaded the form as PDF then imported it into Acrobat. I created a button in Acrobat (this will be for the email response part). I used this script for that function:
    // This is the form return email. It's hardcoded
    // so that the form is always returned to the same address.
    // Change address on your form to match the code below
    var cToAddr = "[email protected]"
    // First, get the client CC email address
    var cCCAddr = this.getField("ClientEmail").value;
    // Now get the beneficiary email only if it is filled out
    var cBenAddr = this.getField("BennyEmail").value;
    if(cBenAddr != "")
    cCCAddr += ";" + cBenAddr;
    // Set the subject and body text for the email message
    var cSubLine = "Form X-1 returned from client"
    var cBody = "Thank you for submitting your form.\n" + "Save the filled form attachment for your own records"
    // Send the entire PDF as a file attachment on an email
    this.mailDoc({bUI: true, cTo: cToAddr, cCc: cCCAddr, cSubject: cSubLine, cMsg: cBody});
    I got it from here: http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/dynamically-setting-submit-e-mail-address
    I'm still kinda not sure how it works but I'm getting the idea. Now what I'm having trouble with is, how do I make it so that the user will be required to click on the scripted button and at the same time, also click on the FormsCentral's generated submit button? Because as I see it, the user can click on the scripted button but they can just close out the form without submitting it to FormsCentral.
    Is there any way to make my idea work?
    Any help is very much appreciated!
    Thanks!

    I do not know or have time right now to look up NDP format.
    To write to NTFS from Mac, you need a driver.
    And to write to HFS from Windows also.
    I strongly recommend Paragon drivers for both.
    That way you can access anything from any platform.

    How can I copy documents from a Sharepoint On Premises library to a Sharepoint Online library and at the same time preserving their metadata?
    I use the Open Explorer Windows to drag and drop the files, but the metadata are not copied. Thanks.

    To maintain the metadata you'll need to use one of the third party tools that does this kind of migration.  Metalogix has a product with a free trial that we have used before.  (Don't remember whether the free version maintains metadata or not).

  • Is it possible to record and play at same time in swift, is there a option to record without storing the file

    I am making a microphone, is it possible to record and play at same time in swift, is there a option to record without storing the file

    Its pretty simple with FMS. You just need to do following things:
    Publish using FMLE with following settings: (just telling which are needed , rest you configure based on your needs)
    Video codec: H.264
    Audio Codec: <of your choice>
    Server ip: rtmp://<server-uri>/<app-name>
    Stream Name: mp4:<stream-name>.f4v
    Application : Server-side code
    application.onPublish = function(myclient,mystream){
         mystream.record();
    application.onUnpublish = function(myclient,mystream){
         mystream.record(false);
    Have a client , which subscribes in following live mode:-
    ns.play("mp4:<stream-name>.f4v",-1,0,true);   // this is subscribing in live mode
    In this way even if file is recorded, your clients are subscribing in live mode so all will be in sync.
    Now if you want to disallow any clients who will try to subscribe to "recorded" file when live event is going on, you can achieve using auth adaptor. (let me know if you want to enforce such requirement)
    But i think above solution solves your primary problem. Also please let me know if there are any issues in getting it work , i have given bare minimum which is required.

  • Bluetooth seems like working since last week and at the same time I can't manage the Wi-Fi

    Bluetooth seems like working since last week and at the same time I can't manage the Wi-Fi. I have already restored.

    This entire thing is a hair over four months old, I don't think it should be acting up this much. Plus, this problem happens only once out of every 40 or 50 times I start this thing up. It's very infrequent, but it's there, and it just bothers me, I guess.
    That said, I would try reinstalling, but I wouldn't be able to tell if it'd worked unless the problem never cropped up again in a long, long time. Sadly I also don't have access to my OSX discs at the moment (I'm out of the country).

  • How do i get a still image to fade the same way and at the same time as a video?

    I have a video stacked on top of a still image. When i add a transition, the still turns to a black screen while the video fades in accordance to the transition. How do i get the still image to fade the same way and at the same time as the video?

    I do. I've applied it to both the  still image and the video. Say i used the lens flare transition. If i apply it to both the video and the still image, the video will dissolve in to the next frame, but the still image will go to a black screen and then jump to the next frame. Its almost as if i inserted a black frame instead of a transition, but only for 2 seconds. Below is kind of a peek what it looks like.

    The above algo should return 1 0r 0 to c# client application and at the same time display all employees in sql query output window.
    Why?  and No!
    Why?  Your procedure generates a resultset of some number of rows.  You check the resultset for the presence of rows to determine if "anything is there".  You don't need a separate value to tell you this.  Note that it helps
    to post tsql that is syntactically correct.   While we're at it, if you just need to know that rows exist there is no need to count them since that does more work than required.  Simply test for existence using the appropriately-named function
    "exists".  E.g., if exists (select * from dbo.employee). 
    No!  A stored procedure does not display anything anywhere.  The application which executes the procedures is responsible for the consumption of the resultset; it chooses what to do and what to display. 
    Lastly, do not get into the lazy habit of using the asterisk in your tsql code.  That is not best practice.  Along with that, you should also get into the following best practice habits:
    schema-qualify your objects (i.e., dbo.employee)
    terminate every statement - it will eventually be required.
