Hey I have a dumb question but with Sprint can you not be on the phone and on the internet at the same time?
You can use wifi while on the phone but not mobile data.
With the new HTC Evo you can be on the internet and in a call. But you have to be using 4g network (which is still spotty coverage).

I read somewhere they can't do this yet. There will be an update that allows it in the future.
It's one thing the iPhone can do because it is gsm 3g... stupid cdma

Well seriously though, it really is stupid that we don't have support for this yet. I really need it with the way I tether for my job.

Rev B can do it but I guess CDMA providers thought that Rev A is all we need CDMA is such a letdown after being on GSM for over 10 years.
If you can get some kind of SIP client running reliably and forward your phone # to the SIP you could be talking and using data at the same time.

One subject I have not seen questioned yet is the ability of the Bionic to use voice and data similtanously. I would think it should be able to on at least 4g only like the lg revo. I wonder if it can also on 3g as well like the thunderbolt. Anyone know yet?

You can only do it on 4G. The Thunderbolt can only do it on 4G. 3G on Verizon is CDMA and it is not capable of simultaneous voice and data. At least in its current Rev A state.

Quite positive thunderbolt can do it on 3g. Its called "SVDO".
Revo and Charge can only do it 4g.

I believe the Thunderbolt has dual radios to accomplish this? Am I mistaken? If that's the case, I've seen no mention of dual radios in the Bionic, but I will still be getting this beast!

Nope. The Thunderbolt has SVDO. Simultaneous voice and data are possible over 3G.

No, the Thunderbolt has a radio with SVDO enabled. Even without LTE, the Thunderbolt can still do voice and data at the same time.
Regardless, the Bionic will have two separate radios as LTE enabled SOCs haven't been released yet.

That is wrong. The thunderbolt can carry on a voice conversation and send/receive data while in 3g.

Actually the Thunderbolt also has two separate radios as well. The way it achieves SVDO is due to its LTE radio also being able to support EV-DO. The complete details can be found here.

I dunno of u guys have heard this but the mg revolution well be the first vzw phone to have 4g voice and text!

I am unsure as to what this means?
that was one of the things that drew me to this phone over the charge and thunderbolt, it supported VoLTE out of the box
here's a link to engadget: http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/20/verizons-reportedly-trials-volte-services-in-two-cities-eyes-n/
recognize that phone in the picture?
here's one from last Feb: http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/09/verizon-successfully-completes-first-volte-call-in-the-world-pl/
Hot dang. I have no clue what that all means, but I am glad it's on meh phone.
Edit: So does this mean that we can soon use tablets to call with bluetooth? That we don't need a radio to call? Hmm? That would seem interesting, and would make Verizon the leader of LTE indeed.
I heard it from my Verizon store.... anyone know when its sposed to happen
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium
all verizon has said is that it's supposed to launch nationwide in 2013, was supposed to launch this year. they've been testing it with the Revolution since last February.
It is the first phone you can actually Talk and surf the web at the same time.
VoLTE (Voice over LTE). You have to have 4G and you have to wait till next year. I love Verizon...
Like Kane it was one of the features that drew me to this phone but since Verizon has yet to put 4G in my area, I forgot about this feature. I bought this 4G phone because Verizon said it would be available in my area in October 2011... Here we are almost February 2012... No 4G. Now I am just shooting for before the end of the world in December...
That can't be true because... the revolution is current using 3g voice and text

All the 4g phones on Verizon are able to talk and text. I believe they are talking about making it so your phone calls and text messages will be carried over 4g compared to how Verizon transfers your calls and texts currently. It'll probably lead to your phone calls being much clearer in the future since it will be carried over a better network than it is currently.

Not everyone lives in a 4G area... I live just north of LA and there is no 4G here which is odd as I can toss a rock and hit LA.
I can talk on the phone and tether at the same time, also text and all. For those of you that think VoLTE will be coming to the Revo, remember this phone has reached it's END OF LIFE. Whoever posted those articles the 2nd one was from last February. There are no more updates coming to this phone, there is no ICS until we get cm9. Someone would have to come up with a hack most likely to enable VoLTE on the Revo.

Is there any way to make this phone run off of 3g? I saw a friend with a galaxy s 2 made to run on 3g so he could use data through at&ts prepaid service. he had some team kang rom. But anyways my vivid only wants to use 4g service for data is there any way to make it run on 3g? i miss having internet and pic messaging and i really love this phone. i came here cause i know you devs know your stuff.

CDMA does not allow for simultaneous voice and data. The GS3 and the Evo 4G LTE and a few others were able to do so only because Qualcomm made something special for them... But for the 600 it does not work sadly. 4G + voice works though. You'll get 4G soon enough :\

The S3 and EVO 4G LTE used the Qualcomm MSM8960 which allowed simultaneous Data and Talk via SVDO. This was as mentioned unique to the MSM8960 SoC and is no longer integrated into any Qualcomm SoC and therefore is not available and will not be available on Sprint phones going forward. This has been discussed elsewhere.
You can talk when connected to 4G and Wifi.

Well that makes that chip awesome. I don't know why they wouldn't further implement that feature. Oh well I probably won't be getting 4g for a while (officially). Does sgs4 support this or do you need 4g nowadays.
btw thanks everyone for the responses.

Sprint has said there will not be anymore SVDO phones. I think the idea is LTE for Data and CDMA for voice. Maybe eventually Voice over LTE?
I updated to the latest OTA and I now don't have simultaneous voice + LTE. I know that the new tri band phones with Sprint Spark lost this feature but I didn't think the OTA would break an existing feature. Anyone else experience this??
First off, wrong section. Secondly, there is no way for that to be possible. When I was using the Sense 5.5 ports, the LTE signal would disappear on call, but the devs confirmed it was still working. We never found out why it happened, but data & voice on LTE will always work hence why everyone SVDO was dropped.

Data and voice at same times works fine on cm11.
I believe it worked for me on stock you just need to enable DDTM.
in dialler do ##3242#, edit, then enter your msl
I think its under evdo. Look for DDTM and set to enable.

The EVO LTE & S3 generation of phones were the only SVDO phones. S4 until now CAN'T do voice over 3g. You'll only get voice/data on WiFi and/or LTE!
I have noticed that since the update every-time I end a call I get the no data message and it takes 20-30 seconds for it to come back, rather annoying actually.
