    Verizon killed CDMA, now what?!? SCH-I545

    Ok, I confess: I made an unsupported assertion that VZW could have updated the S4 to handle VoLTE. I wrongly assumed that a 4G/LTE phone would be capable. Looks like the S5 (supports VoLTE) has more LTE bands. I'm not a telecommuncations engineer, so I can only guess there's a...

    Verizon killed CDMA, now what?!? SCH-I545

    You seem to agree with what you quoted. And yes, I'd agree with you that other carriers are marching to the same drummer, dropping support for older devices. AT&T will kill HSPA in 2 more years. That's 2 more years that I don't have to use the Sony Experia XZ2 Compact that I have sitting in...

    Verizon killed CDMA, now what?!? SCH-I545

    Difficulty re-connecting to non-broadcast (hidden) SSID

    Problem: Moto G (2013) w/Android 5.1 connects to non-broadcast wifi SSID, if phone's wifi turned off/on. But if wifi signal is lost (out of range or router radio off for reboot, security etc.), phone doesn't auto-reconnect when in range or router radio on again. Phone's wifi must always be...

    Why hangouts doesn't have WiFi sms?

    Re: why hangouts doesn't have WiFi sms Hi, can you post the version # of your Hangouts that sends SMS over wifi? The scenario is my Android device to my daughter's iPhone. Her iPhone has SMS and I see no way to send her a txt using wifi. Google forwards my Hangouts txt to the iPhone's...
