Stop me from jumping....

I am not 100% sure but I think 3g is not supposed to work while using the phone. I know who knows the answer...

FoxKat, where are you?

It works on the Rezound while in 3G. One of the handy features I love about my Rezound.

If you are on 3g only (Wi-Fi and 4g off), while talking on the phone you are able to navigate a website or open an internet necessary app? I always thought that was one of the limitations of 3g. I wonder if that is possible on my Razr or if it is only some phones that are capable?

No love for Razr Maxx on this one. On 3g only, it will not connect while on a phone call. I thought that was a limitation of 3g compared to 4g but must be a phone specific limitation.

I believe you mentioned you were in an office?? Is there no wifi in your office? That sounds like a much simpler way to go than getting your IT to signoff on a verizon signal extender. Generally speaking I recommend everyone connect via WiFi when it is available, mostly because it uses less power, and is faster than 3g. and you can make calls at the same time.

The Rezound, like the Thunderbolt, supports SVDO - simultaneous voice and data over 3G on CDMA networks. Since it requires some additional hardware, it's something that the manufacturer has to choose to include, and so far I believe only HTC has been doing it on Verizon. It's not a completely stable feature, which is why Verizon doesn't advertise it at all (plus the fact that not all of their phones do it, which would confuse many customers). Motorola hasn't included it in any of their devices, but it would be nice if they did.

Thanks, that explains why I thought you could not talk on phone and use 3g at the same time. And it explains why the Rezound can and the Maxx can't. Great, now that means my son's Rezound has one advantage over my Maxx. I think I'm gonna keep that a secret from him for now, :-)

My maxx has svdo. Unless I'm misunderstanding . I can be on a call and the net at same time. It even shows that on the how to use phone videos that are preloaded on the phone
