FCC approves S4 - Galaxy S 4 General

http://www.phonescoop.com/articles/article.php?a=12145

One thing I haven't seen anyone talk about is does the s4 have simultaneous voice and data like the s3? I know it will for gsm but what about CDMA? I have the verizon gs3 and love the feature. It even does it while on 3g (only a handful of phones do this on 3g CDMA)

Now if we can just get the AT&T version approved.

4G LTE Upgrade Affect data plan?

When the Verizon Xoom (eventully) gets the 4G LTE Upgrade, do we have to change our plan? Or do the current plans allow us to use 4G LTE? I can see Verizon being greedy and force us to pay more to use their LTE network.

[Q] Anyone have the Nexus S working on prepaid?

Has anyone gotten a Nexus S 4G working on Virgin Mobile USA or Boost Mobile? I'd really like to have a Nexus S, but for reasons I'd rather leave unsaid I can't get on with any of the supported carriers. Also has anyone tried using the AT&T version of the Nexus S on AT&T pay as you go? I'd prefer Boost or VMU, but will deal with AT&T PAYG if I have to.
I have my nexus on Boost and love it...just like it was on Sprint. I don't have 4G in my area and won't for probably years so I made the switch.

Did you have to root the phone or did it just work out of the box?

Verizon Galaxy S3 and GSM

Not now. But once verizon send the OTA you will be able to.

Possible via root right now?

I just got off the phone screaming at Verizon because apparently if you transfer from a 4G phone to a 3G phone you will lose your unlimited data plan. I was transferring to a Blackberry for GMS roaming.
Anyways, Verizon transfer me to a higher tier support and the tech claimed he activated my Verizon Galaxy S3 for international. I don't believe him, but we'll see tomorrow.
edit: I called the Verizon international support before screaming at support (due to losing plan) and that international support said the exact same information as DROID3R, that I need an OTA update that isn't out. So that's why I'm sure the second Verizon tech told me bull**** (about activating my GS3 with GSM) to get me off the phone.
Yep didn't work. Now I gotta call those ****ers to return my $5.

Force Roaming

Hi,
Has anyone found a way to force our phones to roam without rooting? I have bad Verizon service at my apartment but good At&t. Thanks in advance.

You do realize that you can't' "roam" from ATT to VZW and vice versa?
ATT uses GSM technology while VZW uses CDMA. ATT has its own SIM card that will not work with VZW and VZW has its own as well.
There is a thread around here about using the VZW SGS3 with international GSM roaming, this requires you to have another cell provider's SIM, so you get a different number. I don't think this would work with ATT as they use different GSM frequencies from the rest of the world.
I don't even think the VZW SGS3 has the correct radio to work with ATT....
I guess I should mention that Altel got bought out by AT&T here and I used to be able roam on their towers using the app Roam Control. But sadly it doesn't work with the S3.

I did find another thread after I responded to you initially: While I am correct about not being able to roam between the 2 networks, you can apparently "switch" to using one or the other... so you would have to swap SIM cards to do this.
Although at the moment, I don't think 3G data is working...

Verizon's 4G coverage map says yes. And being that close to a major metropolitan area, I couldn't see how they wouldn't have coverage.

Outside you get full bars but inside like 2 depending on your building.
I live here. It sucks.
