False, Google voice work over wifi and over carrier network. SMS only work with Network service thats why it has to die. You actually think GV dont work over carrier network lol. SMS is trashhh

What if you don't have wifi or a 3G/LTE signal?

Then neither gv or Stock messager will work without wifi or cellular service. If im in a building that have no phone service then i can use my work wifi or wifi anywhere to text with GV. THats why GV >>

If I turn off my mobile network, I can still send and receive texts on my phone breh. It doesn't use the 3G for that.

Turning off my mobile data, and putting my phone in airplane mode are 2 different things breh.

You can turn off your mobile data and still get calls and texts. I thought this was well known by now.

my point was if you put your phone in airplane mode and turn on wifi to save battery life you still can use google voice which make it superior to sms, MMS work with gv if you use sprint. All the other carriers blocked MMS. Google bandoned the project because of carrier bullshyt same as google wallet

My other point is google have a smash on their hands

Thank You Based T-Mobile.

2 weeks of having my Nexus 4 side by side with my Sprint GS3 and I don't even wanna use my Samsung.

I dont know if it's touchwiz or what, but if I dont touch my phone at all, the battery goes down 40% at the least after 8 hours of being idle. With my Nexus 4, I've lasted at least day and half with moderate use. No unaccounted for battery drain, HSPA+ speeds are lovely, and stock android 4.2 is the best.
