Excuse my ignorance but what is UMA?

Michelle · 1 year ago

I just googled it so what does it mean not at launch will you be able to later without changing phones for the UMA? and does it make a huge difference?

UMA is where u can use ur home network to place calls as long as u configure it to ur router, so when u enter ur house or get in range then it will switch over to ur home network instead of the Rogers Network

But with Rogers the only way it will work if u set up a side plan for it ..its like 10 bucks for unlimited calling or something, i could be wrong with the prices

I'm not mistaken u still can use wifi internet and not be charged anyhing against ur plan because Rogers has no way of charging for it unless ur in those hotspot areas or watever

fijianbrownguy · 1 year ago

hmm so it says its not with the launch that UMA but does that mean the unit will not beable to do it at when they choose to do it or will you have to upgrade your phone?? Sorry I just need a new phone and this looks the most promising

Yeah Yeah we've heard "Official" dates in the past two months and they all said "credible insider" .. not holding breathe on this one either.

You have got to be kidding me! The whole point of my holding out for the BOLD was for UMA, as well I needed a new blackberry. I guess once it is released I will have to find out if it will be software upgradable or not.
