This is nothing new to most early-adopters of the HTC EVO 4G LTE, however there are some details released below that may be of interest - such as it's obviously not guaranteed, and it does require certain conditions to work properly.
- Sprint 4G LTE phones can acheive Simultaneous Voice and Data (SVD) when connected to a WiFi router.
- They may also achieve SVD when connected to Sprint’s LTE or CDMA networks.
- Sprint 4G LTE phone customers may not see a consistent SVD experience on Sprint’s networks based on numerous conditions.
- SVD should not be guaranteed to our external customers.
- SVDO is possible on Sprint’s LTE phones/handsets, without assistance of LTE or WiFi, utilizing 1x and DO.
- Works only in optimal network conditions.
- Experience not consistent with SVDO; in weaker coverage, voice will take sole priority.
- SVD can be achieved with either LTE or WiFi coverage.
- CDMA + LTE, or CDMA + WiFi should be the primary combinations to achieve simultaneous voice and data, as with previous phones/handsets.
- If utilizing SVDO, the experience will vary, however, if in optimal conditions data speed will be consistent with EvDO speeds.
