I have done it before while on the phone, have you tried a profile update, maybe a setting is not correct.

Its because that functionality is not supported on CDMA networks like Sprint.

This is inaccurate. Simultaneous data and voice is not available unless connected to wifi or 4g. You are able to text and talk. I just had my share today.
Interesting, I thought because of the reasons below you could not text while talking. I just tried sending a text while talking... And it worked! I initially had wifi on, but disabled it during the convo. Tried sending the text again, successfully. Go figure. Maybe texts do go through, but you can't browse.
Sprint uses cdma. Voice uses this network for its transmissions. exts are sent using cdma (1x actually). If you're talking you can't be texting. Now if you're on 4g or wifi, texts may piggy back via that network instead.
I don't remember having a problem doing a text amd talking on the phone. Now I need to try this out.

I hang up on a girl if I hear her Texting. Just saying.
Swyped from my sexy EVO.
I can receive texts but they don't send while talking.
I wish I was popular enough to have a reason to do this -.-

LOL...me too.
I can get text while talking, sending them on 3g while talking it puts it in a pause like state until call is done. Now with wifi or 4g connections I can text,surf net same time no problem

cool, my wife's epic will allow it sometimes as well, and its been awhile but think before i rooted my evo sometimes i think it let me do it sometimes, i just tried it and it so a no go with evo
K so I'm guessing its a bipolar thing.. that's all I needed to know.. thank you for everyone who helped
Are you sure it isn't saying sent and then sending it after you hangup? read this http://htcsource.com/2010/03/sprint-disables-simultaneous-voice-and-data-for-htc-evo-4g/
I just tried it between my EVO and my blackberry (both on sprint)
I used the evo to call the bb, put them both on speaker and sent text messages between the phones.
On cdma SMS is transferred on the voice channel. If you attach a file and try to send it via SMS it becomes MMS and MMS uses data. I tried that and all I got was sending... when I hung up the voice call the picture was actually sent.

Help......CM7

After I flash this ROM my phone decides it dosent want to obtain a 3G signal and it will not connect to my home network which has excellent signal but instead wants to connect to random open extremley weak networks. Im getting beyond irritated!
Are you running the latest cm7 nightly #36? Why don't you turn on airplane mode then turn it off to see if that fixes it. Is your router a wireless n? If it is make sure its on 2.5 ghz and not 5.0ghz. Reason I said that is because my router can broadcast 2.5 and 5.0 so I have to make sure its 2.5 only.

Wow this sounds super strange. Why don't you try going into a sense rom to verify its not your account/phone and then come back to cm7! Maybe sprints network is down. Before you come back to cm7 update your profile a few times. As wifi goes you should get the free wifi analyzer app in the market to see what's the deal with your wifi.
Do you have an airave in your home?

I dont know what to do I went back to the backup I created. It finally let me setup my google account... I really dont understand this. I thought leaving the Samsung Moment and coming to the Evo would be less head aches but this phone is starting to be just as a pain in the ass. Im on sense stock btw with root from unrevoked....

Read through this thread and make sure you're up to date with wimax, pri,prl, etc.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485
Please make sure you have a back up of your wimax keys before you do anything. The moment is terrible and can't even come close to being placed in the same sentence with the evo. I'm trying to understand whats going on but u need to give a little more details.

Were you trying to flash an alternate kernel on the first cm7 boot? Did you fully wipe in recovery(data, system, dalvik-cache, etc) before flashing the cm7 zip? In settings what radio/baseband are you using?

[Q] Calls/Text wont receive when Data is being used

Hey guys, Im lost as to whats going on. Anytime I use any sort of data intense app, no calls or text come through. I have taken a friends phone, sat next to mine when I'm loading a youtube video on my Epic, called it, rings, but nothing shows up on my phone that I'm getting a call.
FYI Im running Urban Envy with Genocide 2.0 with EF10 Modem. If theres any direction I could be led I'd really appreciate it, as this is becoming a huge annoyance.
Mine does that too even on stock rooted rom. I thought maybe it was just sprints network.

Is this happening to you still? Or was it an issue beforehand?
Seriously this is driving me nuts.

Google voice

Has anyone setup google voice to work with their 4G Touch???

so what exactly is not working with stock sms? i get random lockups with samsung keypad... thats about it. i personally cant stand goog voice... at least the vm portion... finally found a way to detach it in the help of the new update of vis. voicemail. goog needs to get with the times and lose the white background... same with G+. sorry kinda off topic... but really im just curious as to whats wrong with sms...
Works fine for me in all respects never had an ounce of trouble with it. What seems to be the problem?

[Q] Automatically Switching Between 3G/4G

Is there a way for 3G to switch to 4G automatically? Yes, I know that 4G has to be turned on separately, but I know my old blackberry was capable of this, where you didn't have to turn the 4G toggle on, and wait for it to work. I wasn't using sprint at the time, but 4G is rare to me now, and I'd like my phone to switch to 4G on its own, without draining my battery and keeping it on. Is this possible? Or is this only with GSM phones? And can it be done with this phone? Details help, all post are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Sorry, wrong section.. If a mod see this, please move it... thanks...
You would probably be better off asking a mod to move this to the questions...and...answers...section.

As mentioned you're in the wrong section.
But.
Sprint Connections Optimizer is what you're looking for. Though most disable/remove it. For the answers to why it's what you're looking for and why people don't use it. Just do some searching.
