3g able to connect to internet while on phone (los Angeles) - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Anyone else notice they could be on a phone call and browse the web?
Just noticed this today...
Is this part of nv?
And yes... I verified it wasn't 4g.

Dual 3g antenna?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

No, voice is 1x, data is 3g. Dual antennas. 1 for the voice channel, 1 for the data channel.

Every new sprint android phone pretty much does that, nv or not...

You just noticed what has been present on Sprint's GS3 since it launched. :victory: Keep in mind though that it's a network AND hardware feature. As of now, the only Sprint phones that support this feature are the GS3 and HTC Evo LTE (Sprint's HTC One X variant).
Even though I've been in a position to use this feature sparingly (but often enough that i was glad it was there), it's made me hesitant to leave my GS3 for a Note 2.

I just got my phone a week ago... so ya, just noticed

I noticed the ATT commercial said they were the only network where you could browse and talk on your iphone 5 at the same time. I'm surprised the note 2 doesn't have the dual antennas. I wonder why they didn't continue it.

The dual antenna was an origanal requierment of 3g and 4g. Shouldve been stock for years now.... nice they kicked in though

Sprint Galaxy Nexus Network type?

Has anyone been noticing any strange network types on your toro+ I usually get EVDO REV A:8 but lately it has been jumping between EVDO REV A:6, EVDO REV 0:5, and 1xRTT:7 never seen all these different types before I just noticed it when I started using Jelly Bean. Speeds are slower also unless I'm by the Sprint store then I would see like 2mb/s but anywhere else more like .5

Absolutely

I think its just sprint messing around with their antennas.
If you don't think so maybe nandroid backup and wipe and reflash jelly bean see if it persists.
Or try a different kernel?

Since I see that you are seeing the same things I think it might be because its an LTE phone because my Photon doesn't display those networks I see I have data upgrades, and voice upgrades planned and some they say have been completed maybe it could be Network Vision. Normally if I had no bars call would not go thru neither would text but now it seems they will with no bars. Speed is slower since I'm on the outskirts of where towers are but better connectivity I can't explain it

My experience with sprint is that they have really screwy connectivity. I love their phones.. except the 4s which I hated and was useless. And I love their 'unlimited' data. But right now their going through a tough time. And that's cause I've been paying for 4g for almost two years and I have not gotten a single drop of wimax when I had the epic and the epic touch. Nor a drop of lte now that I have a toroplus.

Yea I know what you mean I'm in the same boat I'm looking for a gsm phone right now to leave sprint I wanna stick it out but the promise of 4g after 2 years is a bit much to handle seeing how I never got it now I just wanna go prepaid

Well I hear an unlocked nexus is cheap
But also my step dad bought a moto renegade and was promised push to talk... never happened
He bought an evo 3d... now its discontinued...
He's also been paying for phantom 4g.. he's pissed haha he's gonna see if he can "talk" with sprint to see if he can get a GS3...
I think that's pretty hilarious

Yeah its really spotty and on/off for me. Weird observation though... I get 4g with my note in places I don't with my Galaxy Nexus.
Darn them, talked to a shentel rep (people that control sprint towers where I am) and these lte siting are just the test sites -_- but hey, at least full lte will be out at the end of the year for me at least, but hey for test speed of anywhere from, 8-20mb down?! I can't complain, but hey, I saw the same speeds with my wimax 4g, so to each his own

With Note 2 i get LTE everywhere in Dallas Ft. Worth. Even traveling to other cities through tolls where development is not really there. Just alot of trees. I even get LTE in most people homes. Nexus never had this strong of a signal and if LTE switched the phone would freeze. I can honestly say this is a good phone.

I am also seeing very little battery drain from 4G. The radios in this phone are amazing (especially compared to the Nexus).
I havent gotten my note yet but I was also really concern on how would lte and the battery would play. Are some of you guys noticing big drains or small drains with lte on?

Depends, since a lot of areas are tests sites, lte does drop on and off for me, but battery still lasts all day, I say Samsung got it right with the battery, hope other manufacturers follow suit

They have recently expanded their signal here in dallas, texas and now I get 4g on my work which I never usually got any 4g signal because of this old bulding but now I get some strong 4g signal. Props for sprint but my speeds are not that fast, I usually get max 5 or even 6 thats it :S

question about 3g speed and 4g connectivity

Hello,
I have been around for a while, since my htc hero. And I've trusted xda to fix the many issues that manufacturers leave in. However the are a few issues with my new Galaxy S III that are driving me mad and if I can't fix them I may have to return it.
So far my speed is terrible. My 3g speed is half that of my wife's Epic touch. My 4g speeds are fine but will randomly switch to 3g (and with lte there is no refresh button like wimax, so I have to use airplane mode). And 4g is slower than 3g when I try to download from the play store but fine in the browser.
If anyone can help that would be great. I can't search all that well from the app and I am on stock tw 4.1 just rooted. I already fix all of the prl updates and stuff.
Also sometimes a green checkmark appears in my notification bar and says preparing network.
Other than this annoying network issue I really like this phone. I would hate to have to return it for the lg optimus G

Your wife's phone us on wimax yours is on lte. What you explained sounds like lte towers are being worked on and upgraded near you. Lack of signal going into and out I went through that for about 4 weeks then lte lite up perfectly after that.

Epic 4G Touch 4G ?

I have not had 4g working on my Epic at all unless I was all the way on the other side of town. Now I know for a fact that LTE is not in my area but for the hell of it I activated my old LG Viper LTE and what do you know, I have constant 16 meg download on 4g. Anyone here that might have an idea of why this is? I really want to use my epic but wow this 4g stuff is nice too.
the 4G in our phone is on the wimax network, not LTE
:facepalm:
I 100 percent understand that, that's the reason I was confused because sprint has not setup lte here yet.

No I don't think that's possible... I'm pretty sure that Sprint and Verizon (or anybody else) would use the same frequencies for their 4G... they want it to stay fast... trial period is most likely
This Network Vision thing Sprint has been talking about is real. Lots of new LTE towers up recently all over the country. And no there is no 4g roaming between carriers.
4g LTE roaming is not possible between any of the carriers.
ATT LTE uses low 700mhz block & in the future, some AWS and WCS.
Vz LTE uses upper 700mhz block & in the future, AWS.
T-mobile LTE is AWS
Sprint LTE is PCS 1900/ SMR 800 / BRS-EBS 2.5/2.6ghz
I will give sprint a call tomorrow and ask because I need to know if I need to get a good lte phone. Can't even get any 4g on this phone.

It could be up and not announce it yet. Same as Here in my area (Arecibo PR) LTE is up and running but not officially announced. Even if you call CS they will negate it's up. Only officially available west of PR.

Except it came out 9 months ago and the nexus 4 has already replaced it. Its got a weak camera, low RAM, poor display and did I mention it's old. If it was any phone but a nexus it wouldn't be getting updated anymore and headed for EOL, which it will be EOL less than halfway thru your new contract

My wife has a nexus. Its not bad but it came out before the e4gt. Hers is the verizon version. It does run good for having inferior cpu. Lte radio is a plus. No gorilla glass! Shes shattered 2. Overall great phone just lacks features from s3, but its basically free now. Lte is being built in my town now. So maybe few months and its live letd hope s4 is out.

If your on 4g lte you can talk and web browse.

To better answer/consolidate the above replies:
When you are on 3G data (watching a youtube video, on the web browser, etc) you will still get phone calls, however the data connection will stop to allow the phone call to take place. You will also be able to receive text messages however the data will stop for a brief second (the phone actually goes to 1x for a brief second)
When you are on 4G LTE, you can make phone calls with no problem. The data connection will remain active and you can talk at the same time.

Yes you still get calls. Unless you enable DDTM from settings. Which sends calls straight to vm if you're on active data.
There are cdma phones that do talk and surf but unfortunately our Notes is not one of them even though it came out after all the others ones that can! Damn Samsung Retards.. :banghead:

This is not entirely Samsung's fault. This is a 3g CDMA radio tech problem requiring SVDO being needed....and Samsung making a multi-carrier handset that has identical hardware.
And yes you can talk and surf so long as you either have LTE and 3g available or have wifi and 3g available.

I've read a few times and I'm a bit confused. You say it's a 3G CDMA radio tech problem requiring SVDO and Samsung making a multi-carrier handset that had identical hardware. Ok.. Wasn't the GS3 a multi-carrier handset with identical hardware? It handles it fine on Sprint's 3G.
The other thing that has me confused was when you said:
And yes you can talk and surf so long as you either have LTE and 3g available or have wifi and 3g available. Were you referring to the GS3 or the Note? Because the Note can't handle calls and web surfing on 3G.

And this is the exact answer I needed to hear. That explains it thoroughly. Which brings me to my next question. Why didn't they go with the qualcomm instead of going backwards? It's like technology advances for CDMA 3G and then Samsung decides to take a step backwards.
Edit: Nevermind I got my answer. Sprint/Samsung sacrificed SVDO for WCDMA support instead. At least that's what I'm getting from researching.

Yes I picked that up when researching and people saying is the processor, but sgr4u and a few others speculated it really was put aside for WCDMA support for faster 3G due to the placing if antennas. Which to me makes perfect sense because if Samsung can get LTE to work on their chips what's SVDO to them?
