Would Verizon support concurrent voice and data for 4S?

With the absence of 4G in 4S - this would be at least something to be happy about...

I would not be that sure, knowing that Thinderbolt could do it over 3G:

Sounds like it should be only a matter of enabling it by the carrier, provided the hw supports it.
C'mon VZW, I'll even accept partial data speeds!

  • Understanding that the iPhone 5 won't support simultaneous voice and data transmissions over Verizon and Sprint LTE networks will it ever be able to support VoLTE (Voice over LTE)?

    Understanding that the iPhone 5 won’t support simultaneous voice and data transmissions over Verizon LTE network will it ever be able to support VoLTE (Voice over LTE)? Could Apple add VoLTE support later on? It seems pretty clear the MDM9615 chip supports VoLTE but the baseband software by Apple does not. Could Apple add it to the baseband later on? When will Verizon turn-on/enable VoLTE?

    Well in my research Verizon is already testing Voice Over LTE in select markets via a few news releases, and rumor has it that a few smartphones are already VoLTE ready. http://news.verizonwireless.com/news/2011/02/pr2011-02-09f.html

  • 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.....

  • Cannot send SMS when voice and data enabled on 4G

    Iphone 6 on AT&T. When I enable Voice and Data for LTE, I cannot send or receive SMS messages. If I turn off LTE or just enable data over LTE, SMS works.
    I have reset the network setting, disabled iMessages and re-enabled, removed SIM car and replaced it, and restarted the phone. I have not restored the phone from scratch though and would like to avoid that.
    iMessages works fine.
    Any help?

    SMS is a carrier feature so, th first thing I would do is contact AT&T. There are a number of other threads in the forum about people have issues with AT&T and Voice over LTE, notably Caller ID.

  • Simultaneous Voice and Data on Windows Phone (3G o...

    Hi guyz,
    Does Windows Phone support simultaneous Voice and Data on all Nokia Devices?
    Please experiment yourselves and have your say.
    Don't forget to turn off your WiFi. 
    NB:- If you are on 2G or Edge network(Phone shows 'G' or 'E'), this is not possible. Please make sure you are operating on 3G network( Phone may show '3G', 'H' or 'H+') before testing it out.

    As far as Windows Phone devices go, yes they do. Whether your carrier does is another matter obviously.

  • Question about voice and data plan for Europe

    I am in New York and my boss is going to France for a week and a half. He told me he will not have access to the internet there. He asked me to find out if it would be possible to get a voice and data plan for the month that he will be there, and if so, could someone show me where I could look at the different plans available?
    If it's not possible to do that for just a month, then could someone tell me where I could find the rates are for voice and data in France?
    Thanks

    Hi kevindrosario,
    I appreciate your interest in our International Services.  France, is a GSM country and will only support a Global capable device. Unfortunately, its not clear if your boss has a Global capable device.  If so, here are the details for the voice and data rates for France.
    If your boss doesn't not have a Global capable device, no worries!  We offer an Occasional Global Traveler program, in which we will loan you a Global device for up to 21 days.  I hope this information is helpful.  Please let me know if you have any any additional questions or concerns.
    Thank you,

  • Vlan for voice and vlan for data with diferent ISP best choice of config??

    Hello everyone,
    Im, Oscar
    At our company we have a redundant ISP connection to two separate ISP's.
    We are also using VoIP on the network.
    Currently one ISP connection is used primarily and the second on is just used as a backup.
    I was wondering if it is possible to use the first connection primarily for data traffic and the second connection for VoIP traffic?
    We use different VLAN's for voice and data.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • I have a BE6000 server, is it possible to me to make it do a DHCP for both voice and data? Kindly guide me through

    I have a BE6000 server, is it possible for me to make it do a DHCP for both voice and data? Kindly guide me through. Thanks

    CUCM can perform DHCP functions, but it's not meant to replace this functionality from a router or switch, which are the most common places to configure DHCP.
    I assume you'll have at least one of those, why not configure it there??

  • Weak support of Nokia and Suppliers for Touch-and-...

    Hello friends!
    After a long time of recherche, searching information, reading test reports and opinions in forums and testing lots of mobiles, I finally came to the result, that my e52 is the best solution in my case although it is not perfect - with its calender (s40-calender was much better, with better items and simpler parameters) and its T9 (typing on my s40-3120c is double time quicker than on the e52).
    The c3-01 for sure is a brilliant phone, also the x3-02 - the concept of Touch-and-Type is top, combined with the quick s40-operating-system. The combination of Touchscreen with 12-keys-keyboard was very interesting for me. The first test with this phone was also great - top feeling, easy understanding, quick system, good browser, great WLAN functionality, the good "old" calender and T9 behaviour.
    BUT:
    Then I read, that this phone doesn't support Google Maps or any other navigation tool, because the navigation buttons are now solved as touch behaviour.
    Then I searched for apps for this phone, but barely found some.Only themes, sounds etc. - everything, which is compatible to these phones.
    The problem is in the end, that Nokia forgot to implement a possibility to simulate cursor keys with the touch pad, e.g. "left" is pressing left area or moving from right to left. Tapping in the middle would be th Nav button.
    With such a adapter/converter it would be possible to use every tool for S40 and QVGA screen on the c3-01 and x3-02.
    So actually those mobiles are great ones - but without apps and without maps But IMHO it is not that important e.g. for pedestrians to know the own position, but it is important, WHERE somebody can find WHAT, e.g. where is that restaurant? With a browser you can find out the adress, but then again one has to hask somebody for the way to that adress.
    I used a normal simple s40-phone before, but it hat Google Maps, and only today I looked for a watch service, and I could find the place and the way to that service. With a c3-01 there would have been NO WAY.
    Maybe somebody at Nokia reads this proposal - Touch-and-Type is a brilliant idea, but something very essential is still missing.
    Best regards,
    Schlaumy
    "Two beer or not two beer?"

    Sorry to hear about the lack of navigation on the C3-01. I was looking at this phone to replace my E51, but I do not want to give up navigation (which works OK on the E51 with the not-approved-by-Nokia version of Ovi Maps posted on this forum, coupled with Maps Booster, only available for purchase outside the USA!). The E52 does sound like the best, but there is no North American version.
    Isn't it incredible how Nokia willfully conspires to not quite make the candy-bar phone everyone would want? They so cleverly avoid the obvious home run that I suspect they are afraid it would cannibalize sales from higher end models.
    Is Nokia so distracted by the iPhone that they have failed to notice that they are the only contenders for a small, unlocked, international, one-handed phone with long battery life that can nevertheless do Internet, Email, navigate and play music--all without incurring expensive network-connection charges (ie. able to use WLAN)?
    Here's what I want, and I am sure many others would too:
    unlocked
    all international frequencies, voice and data
    long battery life
    one handed operation: nice T9 keyboard with T9 Nav built in
    all frequencies of WLAN
    bluetooth
    Ovi Maps
    Maps Booster built in
    SmartConnect built in
    sturdy candy-bar form
    screen as large as C3-01
    sunlight readable display (as E51)
    USB charging
    USB data access
    MicroSD card
    3.5 mm stereo
    Internet browser as good as E51
    IMAP email as good as E51
    Come on, Nokia, we know you can make it!
    For goodness sake, you're already making the iPhone Nano--now do you understand?

  • 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.

  • Configure Voice and Data VLAN in CISCO SF 300 8P

    I have a couple of Cisco SF 300 8P and 24 P Switches. I have voice and Data VLAN configured as :
    Data VLAN : Default 145.17.59.0/24
    Voice VLAN : VLAN 20 172.22.20.0/24
    I have different DHCP servers as for Data VLAN we have physical server which is configured for 145.17.59.* IP Scope and Voice VLAN DHCP Server is configured in Gateway router with option 150.
    This configuation works fine with other cisco swiches like 2960 and 3750 etc except CISCO SF 300 8P and 24P. I was trying to configure both voice and Data VLAN in these CISCO Switches so that CISCO phone (Model 6941) shold get IP from Voice VLAN and PC should get IP from Data VLAN DHCP Server. I have tried several techniques like LLDP, Port to VLAN Config etc.
    Can anyone please guide me/help on this.
    Regards,
    A K.M.Sayeed

    Hi A.K.M., with Cisco phones you should be able to simply set auto voice VLAN to be VLAN20. 
    voice vlan id 20
    You should ensure CDP and/or LLDP are enabled as well. I would check this in web GUI. DHCP for the phones can come from the switch, a DHCP server on a VLAN20 access port or you can use dhcp helper to redirect DHCP to server elsewhere.
    If you prefer or have issues with CDP or LLDP you can also program ports as trunks and add tagged VLAN 20 to them.  In this scenario you need to insure inter-vlan routing is working and that phones download config file with corrrect VLAN config.
    These switches do not run ios so they are similar but different than catalyst switches you referred to.

  • Cat5e Voice and Data Cabling?

    Somebody  suggested me to use cat5e voice and data cabling for my restaurant so will you advice me that it will be best for me or not?
    http://telephoneguru.net/cabling/

    Cat5e would do fine. But in my opinion Cat6 is the future. If you want to future proof you can also use Cat6. Main difference is speed and interference. I think Cat6 would be costlier than Cat5e.
    Look at here: http://www.diffen.com/difference/Cat5e_vs_Cat6
    But you can use any depending on what your main concern is speed or cost and both would work with data and voice and provide poe as well.

  • 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.

    View Solution.

    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.
