Not great, what class card do you have. Technically that's not even class 2 speeds. But there are a million factors that can come into play.

Stock SD using a USB I had laying around here. I wonder if tat may be part of the reason my little internet setup here gets to be a bit laggy on my ps3 sometimes.
Ok, I think we are talking about 2 different things.
In your code snipet above it shows Transfer of a File from your PC to the SD card.
The speed being measured there is the time it took to move the file.
Now the other couple of posts are talking about internet speed. These things have 0 to do with each other.
Here, lemme tie things together for you. First question was about what I think is a ****ty USB tranfer rate. I tether my phone to my computer and use windows ICS to share my internet with my ethernet port, which is connected to my router and bam! I have internet on my ps3.
Thing is, if I have such a ****ty transfer rate, I wonder if I am hitting a threshold for how much data can be transferred in one second because fo this usb cable or something.
Transfer rate still remains the root question, whether it's bad or not, but I also raised the question that if my transfer rate is that bad is it hampering on the amount of internet data the phone can transfer to the computer?

Much more better
USB 2.0 has a theoretical limit of 480Mbps (for the record thats around 60MB/s). Now, what the phones limit is ----- ehh who knows.
I doubt your PC is to blame unless you have a 10Mbps Ethernet card (entirely possible if its more than a few years old)
The cable it self may be kind of crumby, I have found the HTC ones that ship with the phone, well, blow...hard.
Are there any USB transfer benchmarking apps/programs to test cables and transfers between the PC and device? I'd hate to make a 10MB file with nothing but periods in it jsut to do the testing through adb
But I am trying. And locking up a dual core computer with this project, too.

1KB = 8kb - HUGE difference, especially when they start racking up 10s of thousands of one or the other. Good way to trick people into buying stuff they think is bigger

You should run a speed test.
A common and reliable one is http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/
the top numbers in red and green is the TOTAL amount of download and upload data you have used... the bottom numbers in white are the current speed you are getting (if ur actually downloading something at the moment or surfing the web)
Many variables come into play to determine speeds; network load, signal quality, test server location, other obstructions on the pc (such as firewall), etc..
In general, on 3g, i've seen download speeds up to ~1.5 mbps, with average of 600-800 kbps, upload speeds of 300-800 kbps.
4G, download up to 6 mbps, 12 mbps burst with full 4g signal, about 1 mbps upload either way. ymmv
Just did speak easy test from my phone. Got 737kbps download and 372 kbps for upload. These numbers any good??
That seems about normal. Download speeds will go to about 1.7 MBps while upload hovers around 1 MBps.
1.58Mb/s down
.56Mb/s up
Wish I had 4G lol

It may seem like you didn't understand what the screen said, however, when I installed Calkulin's 1.7.1....my speeds dropped to almost zero....basically non-existant. I had to run the new Sprint RUU and email customer service again to do a reset on my phone. Whatever they do, it works! I am now getting 1.5Mbps d/l and about 500kbps up. Something is going on with flashing roms as this never used to happen. Now, it seems to happen all the time. I wish there was more information from others about this or from the DEVS. I am wondering if by tweeking to make it better/faster/smoother....files are being deleted that are intertwined for 3G to work or connect properly.
Also, I am wondering, since in the era of Big Brother, if Sprint knows by reading our systems...if they can monitor and thus limit what is allowed to be used for bandwidth. I ran an app called 3gtest and it showed that all ports were first pretty much allowed except for a few.....then it would show all blocked except for port 22 sh.....just a thought as I know for me, something is borking my 3G and it just started recently after flashing about 100 roms.
OK so this only applied to file downloads unfortunately (I think) BUT,
When initiating only one file download transfer speeds for me typically average about 40 KB/s, but when I then start multiple downloads while the first is still going I've been seeing averages of about 130-150 KB/s. I've only just seen this while downloading ROMs while tethered with a 4G connection but hopefully others can try/confirm this. I use my phone for my primary internet connection so I found this very useful for downloading large files.
That's pretty slow for 4G. I get speeds twice that on my 3G connection.

While tethered to your computer and then downloading to the computer though? I get much faster speeds down to the phone as well, but as far as I've understood it the tethering speeds have been poor so far for the shift.
If it is while tethered, which tethering app/version are you running? I've tried wireless tether, wired tether, and easytether and all have seemed to result in the same slow results for me.
Try using azilink (I have a post on this in the themes and apps section), it is a USB tether which is free, open source, and gives me download speeds over 1Mb/s (depending on the server from which I am downloading).

Roebeet at slatedroid has a step by step for using the Xoom usb port for host mode: http://www.slatedroid.com/index.php...le-usb-host-mode-ie-thumb-drives-on-the-xoom/
and it is on days like today that I love my Xoom that much more. By the time the devs are done designing things for this tablet, it is going to be a whole new experience. I feel sorry for people that returned theirs after not even giving it real time to grow.
so this enables host mode, but can you switch back and forth between host and client?
I guess his new boot.img that enables the USB host will be a moot point with regard to the new update coming from Moto tonight. This sucks.

Regardless of the update, we will still be able to run this great mod. There has been little work done on the kernel as seen on aosp. so all the kernels floating around will still work just fine. In fact, the only kernel work committed from upstream has primarily been bcm4329 work for the wifi only models.

Going on my GTAB experience, it should work. But, there might be a size restriction -- 128GB, I believe (?) and of course FAT32. Again, going on memory here from the GTAB forums.
My external HDD's are all EXT3/4 so I usually don't test them against an OTG cable.

Yeah I think this might be needed, since it seems that the boot.img for USB host conflicts with the boot.img for OC, rendering your tablet wifi-less. Hope we can get a workaround for this

(gets on soapbox)
Most of the vendors, unfortunately, because they can't hammer out a long-term solution they all can agree on. FAT32 is still used on flash-based devices because of this problem. And it is a problem.
MS, in its infinite wisdom, created exFAT to replace FAT32. But of course its proprietary and has to be licensed. Why couldn't they just open source it and allow it to used for free? That would be too easy, so they can't do that. NTFS is also proprietary, so getting OS's like Android and iOS requires reverse engineering. And HFS+ is, again, proprietary.
What would be best for consumers is that all the major vendors agree on an open-source standard (like EXT4?), and create drivers for their various OS's to support that standard. Then, we could migrate all new devices to that new standard and be done with this problem. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
(gets off soapbox)
Non zoom owner here, potiential in the future. I guess this mean flash drives not camera and phone etc or is it all the same? Wont different drivers b required?

I just exceeded my 5GB for the first time ever (I thought I exceeded it last month but I didn't).
My speed test results were as followed:
Pre-Throttle:
DOWN: 3.5 mb
UP: 2.0 mb
Post-Throttle:
DOWN: .06 mb
UP: .09 MB
That is insane. It takes absolutely forever just to load pages now, and my reset isn't until the 8th.
Is there a way around this?
Not that I am aware. use wifi.
This happened to me last month. Sucked balls
actually, there was some work done a couple months ago on this.
something about pulling a file out of /system or /data and then editing the file to delete a couple lines of code, then pushing back to phone. (you may be able to use RootExplorer if youre not adept at ADB)
i understand it that Tmo tracks data usage, then sends a message to your phone to throttle. this message changes some settings.
apparently if you delete or modify those lines of code, the throttle message from Tmo does NOTHING but take up space in your sms inbox
i would post the thread for you, but i forgot where i found it.

I found files in data/system/ that were called (Folder) Throttle (which was modified today, when my throttle would have taken effect), a file usagetracker and a folder usagestats (which had a few files created through the day today).

Yeah, I shouldn't have expected it to be that easy lol. Still throttled.

After rebooting and clicking my browser, the file in /data/system/throttle came back again...so it may actually have something to do with it.

How is it dying? Its now a part of the largest cellular provider in the US. wtf
Tmobile edge routers shape traffic based on IMSI, HLR, and VLR which are stored on the SIM and authenticate user equipment/accounts to the network... meaning, shaping is done at the OSI layer 3 network level... attempts to make changes at a higher level will result in the same condition (data throttled connection), which is why your changes to the registers on the device would not rectify the throttling... proxify your transmissions to get the result you desire...

It'd be nice if we could get some guys together and figure out a solution to this for others though
I think what galaxys is saying is that the throttling is done on the network side, not on your phone. So, no matter what change you make to your phone, you will still be throttled by the network. I don't see how proxying would help either since the data still goes over the network... unless it can't throttle encrypted traffic or something.

So Normal browsing and downloads i get roughly 6kb/s downloading. But When I am downloading something that is used as a torrent (think of a Ubuntu file) i can get up to a constant of 40-80 kb/s.
I found this a little odd to be honest. If anyone can shed light as to why I can download via a p2p network at roughly ten times the speed i normally get would be awesome.
all speed test apps say I get roughly 80kbps or less which would go against me downloading via a torrent at 40-80 KB/s. The app is not reporting a false speed either because there is a few minute to half hour difference if not more when i download things via that and then test it on something else. I tried many different servers to see if they were the clogg and it is all the same speed at roughly 6KB/s but with any torrented file I get at least 40 KB/S..
When I refer to torrent I refer to open source projects that is easier to torrent instead of spend a lot on servers.... So no accusing of illegal torrenting or getting off topic please...

With speeds this crappy, it's HIGHLY likely if you run a speed test, then run another a few seconds later, you will get very different speeds.
