Why didn't we get VoLTE?

Over the past few days Verizon took the cover off the long awaited Voice Over LTE program.
What's disappointing is when the first handsets to get VoLTE were listed, those of us who invested in Verizon's top of the line Android device got snubbed.
Instead they started with the S5 and LG 's red headed step child, the G2.
What gives Verizon... why weren't we G3 owners worthy to lead off the VoLTE program?

The G2 has it because they were using it to test VoLTE long before the G3 was even released. So they already had the software and testing done. You do realize they started testing VoLTE in the wild for about a year. When was the G3 released? Oh yeah June, just 3 months ago. Also there are more G2s out there than G3s I suspect. The G3 should get it and I suspect rather soon. In fact any phone released this year should get the update in the coming months. No need to get all mad about something that has just started and is a MANY MANY YEARS transition. And the G2 is good phone. I'll probably upgrade to a G3 sometime but not until the price drops to $500.

  • Why didn't I get a reminder to update software systems?

    I am currently on Os 10.7.5. I understand that apple is now up to 10.9. Why didn't I get a reminder in software updates? it only had an itunes update?

    Because it's considered an upgrade and must be downloaded through the Mac App Store.

  • Why didn't I get any discs with my computer?

    I got a new Macbook Pro and I didn't recieve any discs and someone I know has an older Macbook Pro and got discs with theirs so I was wondering what happened to those discs and why I didn't get any.

    New Macs have Lion pre-installed and come with no discs. Reinstalling uses the Internet Recovery:
    OS X Lion- About Lion Recovery
    You restore Lion or perform repairs and reinstalls from the Recovery HD:
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.

  • Why Why Why didn't i get warned about some of my super used all the time programs not working with Lion? I am so sad. What can i do about it besides buying upgrades for all the programs??

    I am so upset because i didn't research enough before upgrading to Lion. I can't use a lot of my pograms i used all the time now. I want to go back to where i was before Lion. Is there a way to do it without costing me more money?

    I didn't say the price was necessarily a drawback; just thought I'd throw my two cents in if the OP didn't want to purchase more software (as he/she alluded to in the first post).  Even if it's a small cost (in your opinion), the OP said they didn't want to spend any more money.  I didn't think about buying it on ebay; but that's a good idea.  Just keep in mind that the Parallels free phone support is only good for the first few months after purchasing a new copy, so if you're buying a used copy, you won't get free phone tech support.  I think they have per-incident support once the free period is over, though.  And they probably have forums you can use to troubleshoot any issues.
    Parallels can also cause a slow/laggy OS, which could be seen as a drawback.  Of course, you could always purchase more RAM if the computer does lag, but there's another cost.  I'm sure it doesn't happen to everyone, but it can happen, that I've seen.  Especially if the computer you install it on is an older one that barely meets the Lion system requirements to begin with.
    I agree with you; I purchase hardware and software for the future.  If my new iMac won't run software from 2004-2008, I guess I'm upgrading.  I understand when people don't want to upgrade, but after so many years, it's not really a choice. 
    I prefer the dual-boot method; it's cleaner (in my experience) than a virtual machine software program, and causes fewer issues with the main OS installation.  It's really just preference, though.  The OP can try both ways and decide which is preferable for him/her.
    What I posted was (as I said in my first post) just my suggestion.  I wasn't trying to override what you said about Parallels being the answer; just adding a new answer that I didn't yet see in this thread, in case the OP wanted an alternative.  Maybe I mis-read the defensive attitude in your post, and if so, I apologize.  But you seemed to be defending something that I wasn't truly even attacking to begin with.  I feel that the best choices are the most informed ones, and with more options, the OP can find the best answer for him/her.
    Have a nice day!

  • Why didn't i get the ios 7 update?

    i have a fouth generation ipod touch and all my friends do too, yet i am the only one that doesn't have the update.WHY?!?!?!?!?!?! THIS IS REALLY GETTING ON MY NERVES! Everyone is like "have you seen the new update?" or "do you have the new update?". i think im going to punch someone soon.....

  • Why didn't i get a software update for mavericks?

    When I hit software update, it only gives me iTunes. Why not a remimder to upgrade? I am currently in Os 10.7.5

    An upgrade is going from one Mac OS X to another.  (example)  Lion to Mountain Lion to Mavericks
    An update is going from (example)  iTunes 11.1 to 11.1.3 and so on.
    You can upgrade to Mavericks anytime at the App Store. It's free.
    Make sure your Mac can run Mavericks >  OS X Mavericks: System Requirements

  • Why didn't I get the options button??

    I followed all the directions, but THERE WAS NO OPTION BUTTON on the page that asked where I wanted to install, so I hit Install thinking it would come later— but no.
    So now I am in the midst of "some installation". Will it just install a whole new system? What happens to all my settings? HELP!!
    Please respond to [email protected], since my computer is otherwise occupied.

    You needed to double click on either your Macintosh HD or External HD and then the 3 options come up. I only clicked once on the HD I wanted to install leopard to and proceeded to install. It just done the update (didn't delete anything) however my HD wasn't formatted correctly and I installed it the 2nd time round and noticed the extra options when I double clicked the available HD options. (Window after the "Agree" contract window I think).

  • Why didn't I get a message that the 4.0 update also required an update to Adobe. I only have windows 2000 so I am not able to update Adobe and would NOT have updated to firefox had I known about this

    given what now has happened, i would not have updated to 4.0, since i am not able to update adobe on my windows 2000 system

    hello, please try the windows exe-installer for plugin based browser from https://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/distribution3.html and see if this works to install the adobe flash player. otherwise you'd have to contact adobe's support since that doesn't appear to be a problem directly related to a mozilla product...

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • I just bought more icloud storage.  When does it show up and why didn't I get a receipt?

    I was informed that I needed more storage for my ipad mini.  I got rid of extraneous things but decided to purchase some more storage anyway.  I went through all the forms and answered the final "are you sure you want to purchase this" question and I have recieved nothing!  No reciept, no storage...when does it show up?  I am concerned because i put in all my credit card info.

    You've checked all your iPad's homescreens for it, and tried searching for it via the iPad's spotlight search screen ? Does the app have 'open' against it in the Purchased tab in the App Store app ? Have you tried a soft-reset of your iPad to see if you can find the app, or download it via the Purchased tab in the App Store app, after the iPad has restarted ?
    To do a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
