AT&T adding iPhone, 4G LTE / HSPA+ support to GoPhone starting tomorrow
Author: Jon Mitchell
AT&T’s official GoPhone prepaid policy has always officially prevented network data access for iPhones (and other 4G devices except for BlackBerry), but a tipster reports that will change tomorrow. The new policy adds 4G HSPA+ and LTE support as well as Visual Voicemail access to the GoPhone package, with customers able to bring their own device or buy a new one at off-contract unsubsidized prices. According to the details, existing customers with iPhones will be automatically updated with network access on June 21st, however they’ll be able to call in and make the switch manually before that. The new features work on the $ 65, $ 50 and $ 25 monthly plans, however the two lower priced options will require data packages to work. You can get a peek at the leaked terms after the break, although we’d wait for an official announcement before picking up your 4G-capable handset and requesting service.

MediaTek’s new chip offers entry-level smartphones a dual-core SoC with HSPA+ on the cheap
Author: Jade Kim
As glad as we are that MediaTek ushered in affordable, quad-core SoC designs with the MT6589, even that silicon can only go so far in making smartphones accessible. The company’s new MT6572 might be frugal enough to lower some of those few remaining barriers. The all-in-one part mates a cheaper dual-core, 1.2GHz ARM Cortex-A7 processor with HSPA+ 3G, China-focused TD-SCDMA, Bluetooth, GPS and WiFi, dropping the construction costs beyond what even the chip’s quad-core sibling can manage. While the MT6572 can only handle up to a qHD display, a 5-megapixel camera and 720p video, that’s more than enough to improve baseline features in a category where many recent entry-level phones still tout single-core CPUs and WVGA screens. Its rapid arrival in the marketplace may be crucial, too. MediaTek expects the first phones based on the MT6572 to roll out in June — just in time to keep the world’s transition to smartphones moving at full steam.

Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 hits the FCC, sports AT&T compatible HSPA+
Author: Tyler Evans
Samsung’s Galaxy Huge 6.3 still doesn’t have an exact launch date, however it has actually made its method to the FCC. While the Mega was revealed with LTE and HSPA+ radios, it appears that this version, model I9200, only has the latter onboard (I9205 is the LTE-equipped variation)– the Galaxy slightly-less Huge, it appears. It’s a winner that this specific model won’t formally make it stateside, but the reports appear to suggest that it’ll play good with AT&T’s HSPA+ bands. In case you’re thinking of importing this 1.7 Ghz device down the line, you can have an appearance at our hands-on right here. Otherwise, you can take a look at the declaring by visiting the source link.

T-Mobile says its iPhone 5 has HSPA+ on AWS bands, HD Voice
Author:
We all know the iPhone is at last reaching T-Mobile– but exactly what you may not know is that it won’t just be a one-for-one port of the existing hardware. Carrier CEO John Legere just mentioned that the T-Mobile iPhone 5 will support HSPA+ on the AWS (1,700 MHz band) in addition to ready-made LTE support. If you roam beyond an LTE protection area, you’ll still have up to 42Mbps data on Magenta’s network. There’s more: it’ll also support the exact same HD Voice calling that went nationwide in January.

PSA: Galaxy Nexus HSPA+ up for sale again at Google Play store, ships in ’2-3 weeks’
Author: Tiffany Shoman
And merely like that it’s back. Following a the other day’s temporary stay of the ban on Google’s HSPA + Galaxy Nexus by Judge Koh, the soon-to-be Jelly Bean-loaded tool is again up for sale at the Play store– and a bit earlier than anticipated. If you’ll recall, Google notes that Android 4.1 apparently reduces the concerns brought up within the conflict by Apple, which has till July 12th to issue a response on the matter. Orders are slated to ship in “2 to 3 weeks,” so we ‘d suggest you get hold of one fast while it’s fresh and delicious to ensure your taste buds get the most recent Android sugar fix.

Sprint LTE previewed: faster than HSPA+, slower than Verizon and AT&T LTE
Author:
Personal Computer Journal just recently got a chance to test out Sprint’s forthcoming LTE network. The network, which is scheduled to present by 2014, is a very vital financial investment for Sprint– AT&T and Verizon are already making progress on their applications of LTE, and even T-Mobile has its accelerated HSPA + network to lean on for a while. Luckily, Personal Computer Journal’s outcomes should offer Sprint clients a justification for their patience. The tests were done using an LG Viper 4G LTE and ordinary download rates hovered between 9 and 13Mbps. Upload speeds pertained to a passable 2.19 Mbps, which places Sprint’s LTE service quicker than T-Mobile HSPA +, however timid of AT&T and Verizon’s LTE. This likely boils down to the Spint’s network using 5MHz segments of spectrum … Continue reading & hellip;

Sony outs Xperia Ion HSPA for poor 4G-lacking citizens (video)
Author: Stefanie Jenkins
Sony Mobile casually dropped onto its website that in addition to the expected Xperia Ion flagship, it’s also releasing an Xperia Ion HSPA. The handset’s only readily apparent feature is its reduced modem, and in every other way looks to match its 4G-enabled brother, with a 1.5GHz dual-core CPU, 12-megapixel camera and Gingerbread. Whilst its designed to consume the same AT&T friendly frequencies, this one’s destined for a rest-of-the-world arrival to sate the lust of global Sony fans in countries where they do everything a little slower.

Samsung Galaxy S III for T-Mobile hits FCC, brings future-proofed HSPA+ for good measure
Author:
There’s been hints of it coming as early as February, but we now have a smoking gun at the FCC: the Galaxy S III is coming to T-Mobile. A Samsung SGH-T999 has popped up at the agency sporting newly added 1,700MHz AWS support that’s the telltale sign of a T-Mobile device, along with the T999 name itself (the T989 is the network’s Galaxy S II). It also totes 850MHz and 1,900MHz WCDMA bands being used for HSPA+ data rather than just voice, a clue that the phone is ready for refarmed GSM spectrum. Just in case there was any remaining doubt, we’ve further spotted a related T999V entry at the Bluetooth SIG with a rather familiar-looking image as well as a Samsung-hosted T999 user agent profile on the web that matches what we know about the Android 4.0 hardware. We have yet to get a look at whether or not the T-Mobile version is any different on the outside, but with the FCC’s help, there’s not much left to know before the expected summer US launch.

NEC tablet with GSM and HSPA breaks cover at the FCC
Author: Ian Simpson
Regular readers will know that the FCC is a bit of a virtual whistle-blower, alerting tech-hungry Americans to when new goodies might soon be landing on their shores. Other times it coughs up the odd thing we weren’t even waiting for. Today’s offering appears to be a 3G tablet from NEC. There’s little in the way of specification, or even pictures, but we do know it’s sporting GSM and HSPA radios along with the standard WiFi. The device measures 222.6 mm across, which strongly points to a display somewhere in the 7-inch region. The KMP7R4D1-1A model number isn’t ringing any bells right now, but we do remember a few Japanese models that bear a passing resemblance not that long ago.

AT&T relents on unlimited data throttling, increases cap to 3GB for HSPA+ and 5GB for LTE
Author: Tiffany Shoman
AT&T has announced today that it is retooling the throttling policy on its unlimited smartphone data plan, a legacy offering still in use by many customers — largely because it was long the standard-issue package sold alongside the iPhone. The new cap will be 3GB for customers on HSPA+ plans and 5GB for those on LTE, up from roughly 2GB regardless of network type. Once the cap is hit, throttling will kick in until the end of the billing cycle, the same policy as before.
The carrier has taken a significant amount of heat in recent weeks for stepping up enforcement of the data throttling policy — many subscribers had been reporting text messages telling them they were in the top five percent of data consumers on the network, warning…
