Re: Talking and surfing the internet at the same time

Only 4G VZW phones can talk and surf (via data) at the same time

Can they do this on 3g network with a 4g capable phone, or is this a limitation of the network and not the phone?

I think the way the chip sets are in 4g phones are you can talk and surf on either 3g or 4g

I just did this with a 3G only phone on Verizon Wireless(LG Vortex). I don't have 4G and I was still able to talk and surf the internet, on wifi and on non-wifi/verizon 3g.

I have the Vortex also and I have talked on speaker phone and been on the internet lots of times. I never thought it was anything special. BTW the Vortex is not 4G capable and there is no 4G service within 90 miles of me.

Yea, I was trying to say the vortex is a 3g phone, not 4g although we have 4g coverage here. So, ATT is wrong, we can do it.
