Wi-Fi Now Works. Mytether Does Not
After finally getting 1.3.1 re-installed, Wi-Fi is now working properly. However, Mytether will not work. Hopefully, there will be an update for mytether that will re-enable it.
Re: Update Killed Wi-Fi!
A lot of people have reported this problem. I reset my phone using webos doctor. It reset me back to 1.1.1. When I go to updates, it says my phone is up to date. So, apparently there is either a problem with their server, or they pulled the update due to the many problems being reported. Even if I am backdated to 1.1.1, at least my wi-fi and mytether are working again!
Update Killed Wi-Fi!
This update killed wi-fi. It will not turn on at all. So, if you use wi-fi and have not updated to 1.3.1...I'd wait til they release 1.3.2 that fixes the problem with wi-fi they created with this update.
Re: Does Joe Idiot really care?
for your information, att only got to the number one by cingular buying att...that doubled their subs...alltel only added 13 million for verizon. Verizon had 76 million before they bought alltel...cingular had 30 million before buying att. So, get your facts straight.
Re: Does Joe Idiot really care?
att does not have the lowest churn rate...that's a ttle verizon has held for many years. Att only improved because of the iphone. Over a million iphones were activated in the last quarter. What do you think will happen when att loses that next year? We shall see!
Re: Even Sprint has More 3G Coverage than AT&T!
I can't stand blackberries, no matter what carrier they are on. They all look the same, have awful browsers, and have the highest SAR ratings all all phones...very near the 1.6 limit for the US...and they have the most smartphone users...not the beloved iphone.
Re: Even Sprint has More 3G Coverage than AT&T!
LOL it is so funny that "most smartphone users" is all you guys have left to "tout" about. How many people do you really think need to talk on the phone and email at the same time? Not many. More people need to multi-task on their phones while not talking. On the Palm Pre, I can be doing literally 20 things at the same time...can't do that on any at&t phone. By the way, you ...
Re: Even Sprint has More 3G Coverage than AT&T!
An "independent research" company also claimed at&t had the least dropped calls...which was later proven to be false...who saw that one coming? But, honestly...who cares who has more smartphone users? That's pretty sad that's at&t has left to tout. At&t is basically touting and screaming about most smartphone users, which makes it sound like they could care less about the vast majority of their users, which are not smartphone users. Even if it is true...it won't ...
Re: Even Sprint has More 3G Coverage than AT&T!
You would be wrong. Verizon's 3G coverage shows just their coverage. When you go to Sprint's website to look at their 3G coverage, it shows theirs in orange, and their roaming with Verizon in dark gray. Sprint's native 3G network, shown in orange is much larger than AT&T's. So, maybe you should take a look at the maps.
Re: Even Sprint has More 3G Coverage than AT&T!
Once again, you bring up something irrelevant and ignore the fact at hand. As far as using your phone at wifi hotspots...AT&T has so many hotspots because their network is so awful...they know they don't have a lot of 3G coverage...which is why you need hotspots. I don't need hotspots with Sprint, and VZW customers don't need hotspots...because we get great 3G coverage. The only time I ever use the wifi on my phone, is to ...
Re: 350kbps = EDGE so....
No, actually they are not. While 1XRTT is technically 3G, as AT&T's edge is technically 3G...neither company has ever claimed either of them to be 3G. I worked for both. They referred to them as 2.5G internally. Generations of technology used to be just jargon, and was not allowed to even be said to customers. It wasn't until recent years 3G became a common term. Verizon has never called their 1X 3G, and ...
Re: Even Sprint has More 3G Coverage than AT&T!
Interesting that you have avoided the point of this thread. Don't you think it's sad that the number 3 carrier with 53 million customers has more 3G coverage than the number 2 carrier with 81 million? Then there's the number 4 carrier will soon have as much, if not more than AT&T. Seriously? C'mon. How can you defend that? I guess you can't...which is why you continue to talk about everything but what is relevant ...
Re: It's the iphone...
July is less than a year away. We already have it on good faith that AT&T is losing the iphone. Who will get it is still up in the air. Regardless, AT&T will not have it to depend on any longer. So, get back with us then.
Re: Even Sprint has More 3G Coverage than AT&T!
Wait til January, and see my friend! The Pre is already out-selling the iphone in Europe...it was just released there last week. Go figure!
Re: Even Sprint has More 3G Coverage than AT&T!
AT&T certainly does not have 3 times the smartphone users as Verizon. Care to post or cite a source, other than AT&T? The only thing AT&T has had going for them is the iphone. When they lose that next year...they will start to bleed customers like you've never seen. Apple knows they have to get their device off of the AT&T network. It's really sad that you have to say good for AT&T is ...
Re: Even Sprint has More 3G Coverage than AT&T!
You are absolutely right. Verizon has a lot of smartphones being released. I can't wait til Verizon gets the Palm Pre. That phone will for sure sell well. It has done quite well on Sprint...but wait til big red gets it...I could be wrong...but I predict it will out-sell the iphone.
Re: Idiots...
They can be pissed...but it's their own "There's an app for that" advertisement that pissed Verizon off and inspired their own : ) AT&T would have people believe that apps are only available on the iphone, and people without iphones are out of touch...c'mon...it's a taste of their own medicine!
Re: 350kbps = EDGE so....
Maybe you should read more threads before posting something so false. The Verizon map does not show 1x...it's only their EVDO REV A coverage. You can verify that at http://www.vzw.com/coverage if you're so inclined. The maps are NOWHERE near being the same.
Even Sprint has More 3G Coverage than AT&T!
Yes, it's true. If you don't believe me, check it out for yourself. Btw, I am referring to EVDO Rev. A, not 1X. I haven't seen Tmobile's updated maps...but I'm sure they're not far behind AT&T.
In terms of 3G Coverage, in order from most to least is as follows:
1. Verizon
2. Sprint
3. AT&T
4. T-Mobile
Re: Note that ATT is NOT suing over coverage
Exactly! AT&T fans will do anything to try and get the spotlight off of the truth. They want to talk about something that is not even in question. Go figure!
Re: Verizon 3G Maps DO NOT include 1X Coverage!!!
By the way...arguing over the maps showing true 3G coverage is pointless. Obviously they are correct, or AT&T would be suing over that. If you don't understand that, get out your iphone...there's an app for that!
Verizon 3G Maps DO NOT include 1X Coverage!!!
Although 1x is technically 3G, Verizon does not include that in any 3G/Broadband coverage maps. Verizon's 3G maps indicate EVDO Rev. A coverage, and nothing more. All you have to do is go check out their maps on the website and see for yourself. Verizon's 3G coverage is far superior in quantity and quality, to that of AT&T's. Fact is fact. No frivolous lawsuit is going to change that. for AT&T to have been at ...
