- Can anyone confirm that the 9930 has the ability to do simultaneous call and data on Verizon's 4Glte network. I am so hoping to dump AT&T and pick up a 9930 but simultaneous call and data is a must.
I can't tell from VZW's site as they list multiple android phones with 4Glte and only indicate some that do simultaneous connections. It is left off of other phones features, perhaps just an oversight but probably a lack of features.
I'm less interested in speculation than anything definitive from someone testing or any hard documentation in the wild or review sites.
I didn't see anything definitive in any other CB posts.

- All indecations are that NO it will not
Unless rim pulls a sneaky one, but no one has seen them with an LTE enabled device yet

- If you want to talk and use applications at the same time you can probably put it on speaker phone and then still use your applications. That's what I do with my Bold 9780. Not sure if that's what you're looking for.08-06-11 12:17 PMLike 0
- i think any mobile hotspot would...at least on vzn androids you can. i am on a 3g hotspot now and made a call. but i dont think any carrier has confirmed this phone will have a hotspot yet.08-06-11 03:21 PMLike 0
- What about this -> Verizon launching simultaneous voice and data over CDMA 1X Advanced SVDO network soon � The Cell Phone Junkie?
Verizon rep said that in tests of LTE in Philadelphia they found certain CDMA / 3G devices could maintain voice and data connections at the same time but he didn't say what devices.nycspaces. likes this.08-06-11 03:37 PMLike 1 - What about this -> Verizon launching simultaneous voice and data over CDMA 1X Advanced SVDO network soon � The Cell Phone Junkie?

Thanks for the inputs, maybe there's hope for svdo, i knew i read some thing about this - thanks for the link.08-06-11 04:04 PMLike 0 - What about this -> Verizon launching simultaneous voice and data over CDMA 1X Advanced SVDO network soon � The Cell Phone Junkie?

Finally had some time to dig around rim's site and it is a 3g device. pretty well glossed over and hidden but not 4g.

Although in the VZ leaked video we're lead to believe their 9930 is paired to LTE 4G, and VZ shows new Curve 4G for September, its been discussed here in other threads and most are convinced it's not. We shall see...
I see you're in NYC. After 2 years of "called failed" on Att I had to switch back to VZ. I wasn't on an att call long enough for simultaneous data anyway, so it was a mute point for me.

- I'm pretty sure the 9930 on Verizon won't be 4G because we would have seen it pass through the FCC unless this phone doesn't get released for a while on Verizon. However, SVDO could happen because I know the Thunderbolt can do simultaneous voice & data when 4G is turned off. I remember reading it had something to do with the chipset used which should be the same one the 9930 uses. I guess we should find out soon enough.08-06-11 06:22 PMLike 0
- so, has anybody with a 9930 on verizon confirmed that 3g disconnects on a call or if it does svdo?
earlier this year the specs on this phone indicated it had svdo, which would make it like the thunderbolt and able to do voice and data simultaneously. i am pretty ready to jump ship from att but this is somewhat of a deal breaker for me. need to be able to tether or playbook bridge and make a call at the same time.
can someone do a quick test with their 9930 on vzw?08-27-11 09:24 AMLike 0 - so, has anybody with a 9930 on verizon confirmed that 3g disconnects on a call or if it does svdo?
