LTE Voice and data

Pretty soon there will be an app that will turn on the front facing camera or something... For the tech savvy paranoid woman.

 

That will of course lead to Seidio creating their next case with an integrated, sliding privacy cover for your camera lens.

Smartphones will have to start including that little red "camera is rolling" light that you see on the front of video cameras.

I remember my old Sanyo flip phone had that blinking light when you had it open and camera on. Since it was the notification light my body glove case had a cut out for it. A small piece of electrical tape between the phone and the case worked well on the light.

 

Hopefully the devs will be able to shut it off just like they do on the shutter and focus sounds. I don't take pictures where I shouldnt but that garbage is annoying.

I'm actually kind of surprised at your being unable to use WiMAX and voice at the same time previously, if this is indeed what you're talking about.

I have been on the phone and using WIMAX 4G on both my (old) Epic 4G and my EVO 4G. I am glad to hear that my new GS3 can do 3g/4g and voice at the same time.

    • I think the push for them is adding US Mobile as a MVNO with a priority data plan.  Ultimately, making people more aware of priority would allow them (and other carriers) to differentiate themselves from MVNOs like Consumer Cellular that advertise the same coverage. n77 has dramatically reduced the need for priority service at Verizon where the mere functioning of your phone was in jeopardy a couple of years ago if you had a low priority plan like Red Pocket. Only have heard of problems with T-Mobile in parts of Los Angeles. AT&T fell in between. All had issues at large concerts and festivals, or sporting events if your carrier has no on-site rights. Edit: Dishes native 5g network has different issues: not enough sites, limited bandwidth. Higher priority would help a few. Truth is they can push phones to AT&T or T-Mobile.
    • Tracfone AT&T sims went from QCI 8 to 9 as well a couple years ago. I'm pretty neutral towards AT&T's turbo feature here, the only bad taste left was for those who had unadvertised QCI 7 a couple months ago moved down to 8. In my eyes it would have been a lot better for AT&T to include turbo in those Premium/Elite plans for free to keep them at QCI 7, while also introducing this turbo add on option for any other plans or devices. As it stands now only a handful of plans can add it, and only if you're using a device on a random list of devices AT&T considers to be 5G smartphones.
    • My Red Pocket AT&T GSMA account was dropped to QCI 9 about a year ago.  Most recently 8 for the last few years prior.  Voice remains at 5.

Based on how I was treated with my Credit Limit, it's definitely not the same company it was before the merger, and it's entirely possible they'd try it.
