The OP (Marke) is correct when he said he WAS able to use 1x voice and data at the same time with speeds up to 124k. The technology at the time was using EVDV (Evolution Data/voice). The technology DID allow this at the time, however around 2005 carries switched to EVDO.
EV-DV, written in full form as 1xEV-DV, is a 3G voice and data technology for CDMA networks. Providing both high speed uplink and downlink connections, it is none the less unused and has been dropped by its developer, Qualcomm, in favor of EV-DO networks around 2005.
So at the time when Cricket was using the EVDV technology this WAS possible, but again to answer your question is is not possible now with EVDO on your Touch Pro 2 or any other device running on EVDO networks!!!!!!
Case Closed.. |
I know what EVDV is (I actually referenced it in an earlier post in this thread). But Cricket never had an EVDV network. They are barely getting EVDO rev 0 rolled out. And the PPC-6700 is not an EVDV device anyway, just EVDO rev 0, not even rev A.
I think the poster is just flat out mistaken. He remembers the tweak that allowed the data to pause when a call came in, he remembers seeing the device switch to 1X, and he confuses that with the data connection remaining active. Also, the PPC-6700 was released in October of 2005, per this link:

So EVDV was already dead by that point anyway (even though nobody ever used EVDV to begin with).
