This is definitely a subject that I won’t need to elaborate on too much, as the battle of HSUPA connectivity has been raging since the debut of Motorola Atrix 4G and HTC Inspire 4G on AT&T’s network. I know I’m not alone in saying if you advertise a phone with 4G (despite the arguments of whether or not it’s actual “4G”) using whatever protocol, it should be accessible when you purchase the device, not with a pending update afterwards. If your network can’t handle it, stick to your 3G.
That being said, Motorola Atrix 4G users should keep their eyes peeled for an update that’s rolling out starting today. This new update will change your vsoftware version to 4.1.83, and will enable the long awaited data speeds you’ve desired.
- Data Speed Increased speed at which data can travel on the network.
- Data Connection Improvements to prevent interruptions to data connection. Screen Improvements to prevent screen from freezing.
- Email Improved ability for users to receive email notifications so you know when you have a new message. Also, improvements were made so that you are now able to use the same email login to access both MOTOBLURâ„¢ and YouTube.
- Skype Improvements to call audio function so it is easier for the person you called to hear you. Please note this application is not pre-loaded on the phone, but is available for download from the Android Market.
- Wi-Fi Increased functionality by enabling Yahoo Email to be sent over a Wi-Fi connection.
- Display Improved International Roaming Warning Message by simplifying user notification so that it only appears on the screen when you move to a new network.
- Happenings Widget Improved Happenings Widget to ensure that you receive the latest updates across the social networks you are connected to such as Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter.
- Calling Improvements were made to incoming and outgoing call functionality to ensure a more seamless experience.
If or when you receive the update be sure to let us know what kind of upload speeds you’re getting.
