faster 3g on android then win mobile - HD2 General

I just installed the latest froyo build from darkstone. Using 3G in android my internet is at least twice as fast as my 3G on my energy rom. any ideas why the speed difference?

i felt the same way too.. funny how wm works..

Same here, Froyo does claim that they have the fastest browser
I do remember using Opera 10 and it can render webpage faster than
Opera 9 or Winmo default IE.
So partly would be due to browser app we are using
__

check with a speedtest website, then you can see if your speed gains are from the 3g or from the browser renderer

I noticed the same thing with the same build, my connection switched from 3G to H especially when downloading Apps. I never seen the H before with windows 6.5? I think it's called "3G+" ?

Which is Faster SenseHERO or SenseTATTOO

I was wondering which is faster when running from NAND and from SD, the
SenseHERO or the SenseTATTOO?
I am currently running NFSFAN's newest ROM. I have used an ION build and the SenseHERO build from the SD card. Honestly, the SenseHERO isn't fast enough for me to use on the SD card.
Would the SenseHERO in NAND be faster than an ION build on the SD card? I don't believe that my SD card is a Class 6.
im running SenseHEROv1.4 and its awsome check it out here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eg2Bkjj57Pc
i like it alot tell me what ya think!
I dont think you should use the video of the mytouch 3g as a reference to which build is faster. The vogue has half the ram and a different, slower processor.
I'm using the sensehero 1.4 build on my vogue that I flashed to NAND. It is pretty smooth, but on occasion there are delays between touches and response, even in the most simple things like dialing a number. Sometimes it freezes and you have to soft reset it. But it does look great and I'm going to keep using it because both windows mobile and regular android combined can't compare to sensehero in looks.
I also wanted to note that I have never used a tattoo build, so I can't say which one is faster.

I think senseTattoo runs a bit faster, especially if you use the tattoo.user.conf jamezelle posted on the Tattoo build thread. nevertheless, i was never able to eliminate the dreaded "rosie delays" so i switched back to the donut-ion build. i miss having all the extra home pages and the built-in exchange integration but the stupid lags and delays were driving me nuts... YMMV.
I was using sense hero a little while until today when I flashed jamezelle's tattoo.
Tattoo is super fast compared to hero hands down using both in NAND.
With hero it would seem to run very fast for a little bit on reboot, then slow down and
lag a lot. tattoo is quick from the start and doesn't slow down, it really feels like it was made for the phone and reminds me of how smooth the winmo roms were.
Another thing is that I had problems answering calls on time with hero, but I haven't missed one yet with tattoo..
In the end hero wasn't fast enough for me day-to-day and actually I got on xda to switch back to winmo 6.5 and android on haret for the time being, but I tried tattoo on NAND and I'm sticking with this for awhile

The MyTouch is faster than our phones... its just not a realistic portrayal of the speed on the Vogue. Makes little sense to compare apples to oranges...

Browser speed compared to iphone browser

Hi all,
Can someone try the web version of vimeo (http://vimeo.com) and compare the speed to iphone browser? Mine seem terribly slower than the iphone's browser, especially the transition between pages.
I'm running the cyanogen room 5.0.5.3 if that makes any different.
thanks.
Just compared it with my Co workers iPhone. My browser us quicker. I'm on Enomther's ROM if that helps.

Interesting. Is it a smooth transition? I flashed the Enomther's room to see what's up. The transition is still not as smooth as on the iPhone browser.
I tried the website on the iPod Touch 3G btw.
Cyanogen changed the javascript engine, this in the changelog:
* Disable V8 in Webkit and switch back to JSC due to app incompatibilities
V8 was apparently much faster, so if that site is javascript heavy.
It stemmed from some app called Epocrates not working with V8.
I'd rather have V8 if you ask me, the last version to have it was 5.0.5.1-N1

Hero Browser slow :(

Hey,
I don't have no idea, but my hero browser seems to be very slow
It's takes quite a lot of time, until browser will load full page... And a lot of pages wants to load in mobile view...
IS it a normal laggy browser or not?
I use android 1.5
Yup... that's normal. Biggest disappointment ever.
I think it'll get better in 2.1 though... I've seen great speed improvements when my friend got an update to 2.1 for his cellphone (though not a hero).
1. Root device
2. Flash BeHero+ v1.2
3. Flash behnaam #23 2.6.29 OC kernel
4. OC your device to 691mhz
5. Disable flash in the browser
enjoy your hero as it was meant to be with android 2.1 and blazing fast
Or, consider using Opera as your browser. You might like it

I second that,... Opera is an excellent alternative.

Webpage load times on Opera

Bascially my gf has a g2 I have a Nexus S.Both Using Opera not mini
Anyways the G2 Loads pages faster then my nexus s.Anyone know what can be causing that? I tried a different ROM kernel already didnt work.
Its kinda wierd when im in an area with decent 3g I think its faster then my home WIFI but with speedtest im getting 6mbs and on the speedtest.net webpage im getting over 10mbs Im at a lose here and the stock g2 beating my nexus S is pretty sad help
Think I figured it out Opera 11.1 loads pages slower then Opera 11 up4 thats the name of the version older version which loads pages faster

Wifi speeds top out around 6Mbps?

I have a fairly fast cable service (high 30's/low 40's Mbps) and a decent wireless-N router. My Evo seems to hit a wall around 6Mbps, never higher. However, I've seen those on the forum who seem to get faster speeds then that.
I understand this is a relative limitation to the hardware and I'm not going to see the speeds I see on my laptop.
It would be interesting to see what others are getting for wifi speeds.
With my current DSL internet, 2mbsps down, one up.
With Comcast at someone else's house. 8900 and 10,000 with adfree on. Didn't know made much of a difference.

Try disabling mobile networks before turning on wifi it seems to help with my wifi speed although I've never tested my wifi speeds thru my evo cuz I don't use it much
We are legion, for we are many.
My work wifi can get speeds up to 100mbps on computers, and I normally see about 15-20mbps on the evo.
I get average of 7megs

With my uncle wifi he has comcast,the highest on sense roms I have reached 21Mbps down and 6.12Mbps up. but on miui the highest I've ever got was 14Mbps and like 3-4Mbps up.

I've wondered if it had to do with the fact I run AOSP roms and not sense.
It would be great if a dev could chime in and explain why there's a difference.

Yes aosp (cm7 or deck) is the problem with slow wifi speed. sitting right next to the router with cm7/deck my evo top out at 7 or 8 Mbps while sense rom (fresh latest) I get an average of 11 Mbps, my DSL top out at 12 Mbps. Also aosp rom suffer more from not only low signal but slow wifi speed when you move further away from room to room, where as sense does slow down but not as much as aosp rom. I love aosp and currently continue to use aosp because of it speed over sense base rom. In my test sense rom stutter/choppy while watching flash video via browser (stock or opera or dolphin) but aosp (cm7 or deck) run a lot smoother.
Kinda what I expected. Thanks for the explanation.
Have you tried 3GTurboCharger script that is located in the V6 SuperCharger thread, it includes wifi xer... something to consider...

I am currently running an AOSP ROM ( Deck 1.3 ) and with my TWC 30m down, 2m up cable modem I am getting 13 - 15m down and 2m up no matter where in the house I am. Even when I am outside in the yard and only showing one bar on the WiFi Manager widget.
I ** DID ** get slower speeds on the CM7 ROM. Usually in the 7 - 8m range.
I haven't tried the CM7 ROM since I upgraded the radios though. It might have made a difference.
On a Sense ROM (JTG-ICS-4.0.3 b4) I can get 20+m. But I do agree that my video streaming on the Sense ROM has been anything but nice. And that is on ANY of the Sense ROMs I have tried.
