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.

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)?

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.

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]

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!!!

Now that make ALOT of sense. I still feel that the merger will happen. And if this is in fact an ATT release, what a freaking start!!! Even more supportive evidence is T-Mob isn't selling the 9810 anymore. Hmmmmmm

I had a similar thought when I heard about TMOB dropping the 9810 - although, the word is that the merger is totally dead. The other reason TMOB dropped the 9810 could be because at the stupidly high price they were charging ($250K), anyone wanting the 9810was going to AT&T . . .

On another note - have you found any apps that do not work on this new leak?
