Can the new verizon iPhone 5s talk and surf

Can the new verizon iPhone 5s talk and surf

I don't think so, because it's a Verizon thing.
But one can only hope.

Will the new Verizon iPhone 6 let us talk and surf?

CDMA is an outdated technology that cannot support talk-and-surf on IOs devices/Apple iPhone. When will Verizon support voice and data on LTE? This is a royal PIA! I can't do my meetings with my iPhone5. Is Verizon management taking a note or are they waiting and willing to loose customers (Think about IBM's fate in the technology industry)
Please don't deflect the issue to Apple ... they shouldn't have to add an additional antenna for Verizon and Sprint.

Verizon will not be fully VoLTE for another couple of years. Until then Apple has to make their own decisions on what their devices support or don't support.
I never said Apple has to add another radio. Truthfully that's what I understand what it would take for the iPhone to talk and surf on the VZW network. If the Android, Windows Phone and Blackberry device manufacturers chose to include the necessary hardware, I have a really hard time understand why Apple chooses to exclude it.

No.
(I'd put the link up but I think Verizon would delete/edit my post).
From a New York Time's piece, "It was Apples decision to design the iPhone 5 so that customers could only make voice calls and do Internet activity simultaneously only over Wi-Fi, not over Verizon cell network."
The reason why...
"The explanation for this, it turns out, is complicated. The technology in 4G LTE networks does not currently handle voice transmissions; it only does data. So when you place a phone call on a 4G LTE smartphone, it’s actually rolling back to the carrier’s older second- or third-generation network, according to AnandTech, a Web publication that does deep analysis on hardware."

Will the new Verizon iPhone 5s let us talk and surf ?

Will the new iphone 5s for Verizon and other NON AT&T carriers announced today finally let us talk and surf the internet at the same time when we are NOT on wifi?

It's actually a combination of the two. Verizon's network currently carries voice on CDMA and data on LTE (when available). CDMA cannot do voice and data simultaneously. That's the Verizon (and Sprint) part of the limitation. The chip used in most of the 4G LTE Android phones Verizon sells can use CDMA and LTE simultaneously, thus giving you voice and data at the same time as long as you're in an LTE coverage area. If there is no LTE, you can't do both at the same time. iPhones use a chip that, as I understand it, can do either CDMA or LTE but not both at once. That's the Apple (well, Qualcomm) limitation. I haven't delved deeply enough into today's news to determine if Apple has changed chipsets for the new phones.
Eventually, Verizon plans to do voice over LTE but I haven't heard much about it lately.
Best of luck.

Will the new 2012 iMac support 2 hard drives (HDD and SSD) like the 2011 iMac?

Will the new 2012 iMac support 2 hard drives (HDD and SSD) like the 2011 iMac?

Well, I'm not sure how anything can fit into a 5 mm depth, so I can see why they've removed the CD drive - there probably wouldn't be enough room for the laser, LOL. Can't imagine speakers, hard drive (of any flavor), logic board and so on and so forth. Fortunately, my iMac has Applecare through early 2015 so I'm set for a while; I may check out a Mini at that point - saw that it is configurable with a fusion drive, which would make it interesting for me.

You will see this with the 4G network that is being developed. According to recent news, they just tested the first simultaneous call and data transmission on the VZW network without a hitch.

Why cant i talk and surf at the same time?

Why cant i talk and surf at the same time? Got lost yesterday and while on the phone i couldn't search store web to get the address. Perfect timing to figure this out; when you're lost. This is a MAJOR problem for me and anyone on the go. WHEN WILL THIS BE FIXED??? I will not hesitate to return this phone as im sure all TURBO users feel the same. Someone said the MOTO X was the same way... is it still...why hasn't then been fixed by now? Which now makes me wonder if this wasn't an oversight but something intentional. Why did they hide the fact that they knew this was going on? i should have been told that this capability wasn't available on the TURBO at time of purchase. FIX IT NOW!

Then you have had phones WITHOUT the capability of talk/surf at the same time. If you don't realize this, then you don't(or at least didn't) use it as often as you think. Original Droid didn't have this capability. Droid X didn't have this capability. Droid X2 didn't have this capability. For the most part(there may have been exceptions of which I am unaware), NO Verizon phone had this capability until 4G phones and then ONLY when on a 4G LTE signal. 4G phones on a 3G signal did not/do not have this capability.

Droid Turbo talk and surf at the same time

Hello,
So I just brought my Droid Turbo home and have started testing it. I bought it knowing that it only had one antenna, but I had read that a new update was pushed that allowed for simultaneous talk and surfing. My software update is up to date (21.44.12.en.US), and the notes on the update even mention this feature was included in the update (why it is a "feature" and not a standard is beyond me). I just tried it again, and I can't surf and talk at the same time. Can someone explain this issue; is it only possible when using advanced calling over XLTE? The discussions I could find on here were all dated 6 months ago (before the latest update).
Thanks.

Yes, they both have to have Advanced Calling for HD voice to work....but that is not what the OP was inquiring about. You can do simultaneous calls and data with the Turbo with ANY other phone (cell or landline) as long as you have Advanced Calling enabled on your phone. The HD is an EXTRA feature that makes for better call quality if both have Advanced Calling, but I assure you that you can make regular voice calls the same as with any other device, AND use data calling any cell or landline once you have it enabled on the Turbo.

Where's the option to select Google Talk and Yahoo Messenger? When I click on "Set up Chat" I only get the options to install Gizmo5 and Vyke Mobile.

Hi there:
Open Power Manager, select Advanced View, select Battery tab, click on Battery Maintenance. I have read on this forum that some folks have set their thresholds at start charge ~40%, end charge ~80%.
I just did a quick search and found this from march 09, search terms "battery charge thresholds" (one hit, 49% confidence), scroll to jonlumpkin's reply.

Can you talk and surf the internet with the Thunderbolt at the same time?

The reason i ask, is that CDMA technology does NOT allow you to talk and surf at the same time. So am somewhat curious.
It's not necessarily a limitation of CDMA, just the technology Verizon was using previously. Network modifications and the Qualcomm chipset in the Thunderbolt make it the only current device that can do simultaneous voice & data over 3G in addition to Wifi and LTE.

Talk and surf iphone 5

Reported problem:
     During voice conversation, speed of simultaneous internet connect drops to below 1Mpbs downlink and below 0.1Mbps uplink.
Location of problem:
     My residence, as well as outside of house, approx 1 mile to the South.
User equipment:
     iPhone5, Version 6.1.4(10B350), Carrier AT&T 14.2, Model MD635LL/A, Modem firmware 3.04.25
     Same problem observed on both my wife's and my iphone5. Both units were purchased brand new, only by us, no hard falls, protected by shell case.
Reproducibility:
     Every time voice call is on going, internet speed drops to >1Mbps downlink and >0.1Mbps uplink.
     App used to determine internet speed: OOKLA Speedtest.net, and RootmetricsCoverageMap.
     Extreme internet slowness shown every time voice call is on going.
     If voice call is not on going at time of speed test, observed speed:
     LTE turned off, antenna shows -85db AT&T 4G
     ping = 56ms
     download = 3.37 Mbps
     upload = 2.67 Mbps
     Ookla Speedtest app, v3.1
     If LTE is turned on,
     antenna shows -94db AT&T LTE
     ping = 44ms
     download = 23.03Mbps
     upload = 10.08Mbps
     Same app, Ookla Speedtest app, v3.1
     Date and time of test: 8/26/2013 4:30-4:33PM US Central
     4:36PM. Voice call established from my iphone5 to my home Vonage VoIP phone.
     antenna shows -83db AT&T 4G
     Ookla Speedtest app shows:
     ping = 411ms
     download = 1.21Mbps
     upload = 0.09Mbps
     Hang up call, antenna switches to -93db AT&T LTE,
     Re-ran speed test,
     ping = 50 ms
     download = 21.59 Mbps
     upload = 7.12 Mbps
     Desstination server remained constant throughout all these tests: Comcast, Chicago IL.
     Origination of tests: Suburb of Chicago, stationary, in residence, 2nd floow, did not change phone orientation in between tests.
Facts known to myself:
LTE is currently data only, so whenever voice calls are attempted, at&t uses the CSFB approach.
The call is handed over to another UMTS cell, which ought to be able to handle simultaneous voice and packet calls.
One would think that when we turn off LTE and see 4G, we'd be served by a nearby base station, call it BaseStation_1.
Now when we have a simultaneous voice and data call, I had expected to be served by the same BaseStation_1 that I had attached to when my iphone5's LTE is turned off.
I also assumed that if I get 3.37Mbps/2.67Mpbs when I'm doing a packet only session (LTE disabled, attached to 4G), that when I tack on a voice call, there ought to be less to no degradation in packet transmission speeds.
Why do I make such assumptions? Because of at&t's marketing selling point for going with this carrier:
That even though Verizon may currently have more LTE market coverage, at&t has HSPA+ nationwide to augment its LTE. When Verizon/Sprint iphone5 users step out of LTE coverage, their data speeds would drop down to the slower 1xRTT/EvDO; whereas at&t users stepping out of LTE coverage would get the faster HSPA+.
Talk and Surf : UMTS allows simultaneous voice and packet calls, not CDMA.
One would think it goes without saying that such "simultaneous" data transmission would be of sufficient speeds. Even if the bench mark speeds may not be so high, at least the human persceived network response time has to be accetable.
However, I think somewhere along the line, something like talk and surf fell through the cracks: that areas equipped with LTE base stations probably would have the HSPA+ equipment redeployed elsewhere.
I say "probably" because there is no way for me to know. at&t may also have left those HSPA+ equipment in place and not moved them.
My only regret is that I had not run speed tests back in Dec 2012 when I first got the iphone5. When I tested talk and surf back then, and the surf seemed responsive enough. Now, the "surf" when "talk" is going on feels so slow, and that was what prompted running speedtests.
Surf and talk still works, but the slow down during a talk session has gotten to be irritatingly noticeble.
I have tried resetting the iphone, resetting network, using cases with different materials, but since the other iphone5 in the house shows the same packet slowdown during a voice call, it's probably due to at&t's 3G packet bandwidth.

I have not called at&t technical support, because since posting here I've read more previous postings on this subject: there has been quite a few people reporting this problem since Sept 2012 even, and not one single post shows an answer. Some folks were told to go to Apple, some were told to get a new sim. I did not see any threads culminating in a working solution.
Guess I will call at&t when I have some time to burn, because this is going to be a very lengthy process.
I just tried testing talk and surf again, this time with iphone field test mode (*3001#12345#*) turned off. It seems that when the voice call is going on, and we just look up businesses using Yelp or Map, the speed, while slow, at least doesn't stall out (current time is 9:58PM Central, lower traffic).
Once I launch RootMetrics CoverageMap: downlink is less than 1Mbps and uplink reads zero.
If I repeat the test, I'd get similar results.
If I run Speedtest, on the first run the downlink is less than 1Mbps, uplink is less than 0.01Mbps.
If I run Speedtest a 2nd time, the test will stall and return a failure.
And then after this stall, all internet sessions appear to be stalled. Safari page loads stop progressing, Yelp searches would time out.
Speedtest's benchmark appeared to have done some damage to the data pipe.
On my most recent test call (iphone field mode turned back on again), I started out with:
Wifi disabled
LTE enabled (-92 db LTE, 4 bars)
Iphone call out to an VoIP phone (switches to -82db 4G)
This time, I did not launch Speedtest or CoverageMap, and only launched Maps, Yelp, AppStore.
Maps and Yelp response time while not that great, but at least responds to restaurant searches within 10 to 15 secs.
I punched in a random food type, Yelp returns within 15 secs with nearby restaurants. Then if I click on "directions", it'll launch Maps and draw out routes in about 20 secs.
App Store is slower to display graphics.
Next I launched Safari, punched in http://cnn.com.
Main page took about 15 to 20 seconds to finish loading.
The main lesson for me from tonight's testing is, as long as I don't run Speedtest speed benchmarks, talk and surf would work, just not as fast as we'd like. However, after Speedtest is run, even for 1 single time, subsequent attempts to load pages on Safari, Yelp searches, would result in a stall.
Hang up voice call, reload cnn.com page, page load is very snappy, as packet call has already handed over to LTE.
Make another voice call to same VoIP number, iphone5 switched to 4G, Safari page loading now resumes again, no more stalls.
So it does appear that the Speedtest app v3.1's benchmark some how "ruins" the UMTS data pipe, causing apparent stalls in subsequent packet transmission. If the benchmark is not run, simultaneous voice and data is possible, but the internet response time does "feel" faster later in the evening when traffic is lower.
This fallback to UMTS for voice and data is not a long term solution, and I look forward to the industry's deployment of VoLTE.

IPhone 5 - "Talk and Surf Simultaneously"?

Will the Verizon iPhone 5 support this feature? Or is it still only AT&T?

This article you cite specifically states that it won't, but I think it is incorrect.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10000872396390443696604577647921448070082.html
WSJ Article:
Can I talk and surf at the same time?
On 3G networks, the CDMA wireless technology used by Verizon and Sprint didn't allow users to browse the Web while carrying phone conversations. But the GSM technology used by AT&T on its 3G network does. That advantage for AT&T may carry over into LTE, at least with the iPhone. Its network will still allow users to do both, while those from Verizon and Sprint won't.
