CDMA2000 devices to access EV-DO-based data services (or SVDO)

Quoted from, RCR.  Is this even possible?

 

"The group also introduced a device enhancement called simultaneous 1X Voice and EV-DO Data (or SVDO) that will allow CDMA2000 devices to access EV-DO-based data services while callers are in an active 1X voice call. In simple terms, this will enable a caller to perform a packet-data function, like downloading a file, while they are on a voice call."

Check the date, Mr. Magoo. Welcome to September 3, 2009.

Right. Not possible on Triband devices.

 

It is possible -- just not worth the added cost, extra engineering, and reduced RF performance.  The rest of the world uses single radio handsets.  The single radio paradigm shift with tri band handsets brought Sprint in line with SoftBank and the rest of the world.  Otherwise, Sprint never would have gotten the likes of the Nexus 5 and Nexus 6.

Single Radio in my phone? I want 5 radios in my phone and a deep cycle marine battery on a cart behind me to power it all.

    • Stopped by again today and the antennas are up but it isn't live just yet. If other Sprint conversions are anything to go by it'll likely take about a month for the site to go live.
    • It is an Android bug that was reportedly fixed in August 2023 but definitely has not been. I have implemented numerous workarounds in SCP to correct the NR bands the app displays. The OS ignores the possibility that many NR-ARFCNs are valid across multiple bands.. it reports the lowest NR band that is valid for the current ARFCN. In your example, channel 432530 can be n1, n65, or n66.. so the OS just (lazily) reports n1.   Awesome, thanks! I will add an n65 override also.
    • Yeah both of those instances were on my AT&T s22 ultra. Seems ro be working as intended today in latest release.
    • Interesting, I saw this too on my AT&T S22 while roaming on US Cellular. I thought it was an Android bug since CellMapper was doing the same thing (didn't get a screenshot of that one). N66 makes more sense than N1. 
    • Thanks, that was good timing, I did see your report as I was buttoning up this latest update and added an override for that.. did it not work?   Ok, was that on AT&T also? Please send a report if you happen to see it again and safely have the opportunity. You can always do the long-press on the fly and then send a later one with an explanation pointing to the earlier one.. your username is attached to the long-press reports, so it's not an issue.
