Thank You Bionic users for everything

[wildkitten]

Well, my upgrade time came early. I guess Verizon decided to be nice to me for a change and give me an early one. The sad thing is it means I won't be coming here for advice anymore.

I upgraded to the S4. Was the only phone with a swappable battery which has been the reason I have been so happy with my Bionic. Won't be getting rid of the Bionic. It will have a long life as a media player and a GPS. For all the frustrating moments, it has been a very good phone to have.

Take care all.

How will it still be a GPS because won't that still require a data connection?

The GPS radio itself does not require data - it just reports location coordinates from satellites. You can either pre-download map data, use an app that has pre-downloaded data, or tether to a phone or tablet using WiFi. (I believe that the Google Maps app will show you where you are if you pre-download map data to SD, but navigation apparently requires a data connection. I'm not sure if that is true for other Nav apps.)
