Just installed so far so good. Just one question what is the difference between UMA and Wi-Fi calling. I have UMA on my account so is this the same?

Yes, exactly the same.

**rjak707** · 01-08-2012, 07:04 PM

So to be clear since I have unlimited Canada on UMA, W-Fi is the new UMA and I don't use any cell minutes or pay long distance?

**pptarr** · 01-08-2012, 07:10 PM

with this build i can no longer select between 4g and 3g/2g. I occasionally switch in poor reception areas.

Rroyy, you ROCK!!!

Mind you I'm on AT&T, so I have neither of them, but my understanding is with UMA, the phone switches to the phone network when you lose wi-fi. With wi-fi only, it just drops the call when out of range. I could be wrong, if so, please correct me.

Thanks.

Holy frijoles, you're right!!!! I wonder what the that's about??? Time to compare java...

Other than that, we are 100% installed on my end!! Woohoo!!!

**dadymon** · 01-08-2012, 07:23 PM

Any mirrors?

**Don_Henry** · 01-08-2012, 07:27 PM

Meaning your device can only connect to the 4G network?

Mecca - do you think that perhaps this OS provides "automatic" switching to 2G/3G is the signal is poor (even though you can not manually switch it)?

**lethaltriad** · 01-08-2012, 07:33 PM

Just went from 585 to 583(At&T) 2 days ago. Loading this build on now, almost done #Excited. Hoping for even better battery life with 7.1

I'm happier than a tick on a bloodhound!!! I'll have to agree with your theory, because it's the only thing that makes logical sense. Still, I hate not having control of that. They should have asked 1st.

**johnsbold9700** · 01-08-2012, 07:52 PM

what about tethering? i use the rooted bridge with my playbook. wifi would be faster but what about the tethering charges? in this os is there a work around so there is not a charge for tethering?

**Blacklatino** · 01-08-2012, 07:54 PM

Well, the option is gone. Probably means it will downgrade automatically in poor signal areas.

Including hospitals

If this was an ATT release - my theory would be they saw no need to worry about bas signal because at the time of release, they were counting on all those extra towers from buying T-Mobile!!!
