Just out of curiosity I have had my phone rooted for about 3 months and after switching roms the other day all of a sudden I had very weak. 3g service. Wondering if it could be the software from switching roms or just the phone. Stupid question I know bit still wondering. Thanks

Alright.... I'm on my mt4g, and when I run a speedtest on here, it says my server is out of Washington state... this morning, it says its in Utah... only problem is, I'm in fort worth, tx... even with the Hsdpa w/e signal, max dl speed I've been able to hit is around 2.94 mbps... usually, its only about .94 to 1.20... any ideas why its doing this?

In seattle here and it started doing this to me yesterday as well. They're probably just having some problems. It used to pick Seattle servers just fine
Do you have the new sim cards? With my old sim I was get getting .93m and with new sim im getting 2.0m+ on average and I'm not in hspda+ area

the problem I seem to have is that each consecutive test, the speed gets lower, lol. I started at 1.8Mbps down. it picked the correct server for my location, but it would do what you are explaining on my sprint epic (on 3g).
Sometimes when we are working on a switch, we re route the traffic through another switch. This may be what is going on here.

It's highly dependent on where you're at. At home I get around 6Mbps, but if I travel 4 exits down the freeway, I get 1.2Mbps.
But yeah, the actual SpeedTest app is weird. My friend and I both installed it and my phone shows my local city as the nearest server. His phone shows like Dallas, TX or something 1000 miles away.
Just change the server in the speedtest app settings to whatever city u want
SpeedTest app selects servers based on IP -- chances are T-Mobile has (for whatever reason) assigned your phone an IP of a different geo-location.

update: Was still getting connected to servers in montana so I just uninstalled and re-installed speedtest and it put me back on the correct Seattle server. I'd suggest trying that.

When I try to change the server, they're all 1000+ miles away...

See post 2 above yours....
Use your brain and pick a server that is close....

Im from Fort Worth as well and the same here. I used to be able and find a white settlement or fort worth server that were either 18 mi or 24 mi away but now there is cities in Washington and Oregon.
Guys, I am experiencing a horrible battery, even on a mAh 3500 one. I've been doing a little bit of research and on sprint.com, it states I've used over 6.4 gigs of data in the last 5 DAYS. I am hardly ever using the phone, except for going on xda and texting. I also have an app called pfinance that updates my stocks every 15 minutes...thats 7 widgets. But there's no way that should hit 6 gigs....in 5 days!
Additional info: im running syndicate 1.1 atm, in the past 4 days, I was on midNIGHT rom v5 (which I downloaded via wifi, incase u suspect that added to my 6 gigs of data.)
Somethings happening to my phone and I wanna know what. Lol!
Edit: I checked running processes and found telenav navigator (the new one that replaced sprint's nav app) running and will not stop. I uninstalled so we'll see how that goes....
Edit2: I am running touchwiz.
Edit3: Attached a file showing my usage. LOL

For some reason it was overheating bad, all I did was reboot the phone and it stopped over heating.....I do have the x99kernal and have it set to on demand 1209 max 245 min, that's not too bad is it?

No I run mine at 1.5 mostly they just get hot from time to time

Run my Shift all day at 1.6gHz, no issues. Once in a while with heavy use it will get warm. But not hot. My TP2 used to get really hot. After looking into it, turned out it was a battery issue.

What are we talking about for normal battery temperature vs one that I should worry about? I have serious battery issues and I am on my second phone because the 1st one wouldn't last more than 2 hours. I barely have any programs running and it won't last more than 4 hours. Thanks!

I had that happen to me 2 weeks ago at a baseball game... The phone was in my pocket as it always is, and the thing started getting extremely hot to the touch within minutes... Also using x99 with kickass governor, 245 min/806 max.
And I did the same thing to fix the problem as you..
Now if I can only figure out why I have no data at all today on the phone..
My girlfriend's Shift began overheating at a wedding not long ago. Was able to track it down to K9 Mail, which was stuck constantly polling the 3G connection. Even a reboot would only stop it for a while. Uninstalled and reinstalled K9 and all was well after that.
Same thing happened to me once when I tried the Pulse app I think. I was looking for a different RSS reader. It got stuck updating or something. I was sitting at work and my phone felt very hot. I noticed data was being transfered and checked the network usage using the *#*#4636#*#* and sure enough Pulse had downloaded over 200mb worth of data that morning on 3G. Once I removed the app it has been fine. I am stock rooted.
Hey guys i have a little problem here, i flashed a few roms over the months and now i flash pacman then my phone starts to run hot then later the same day i flash aokp and it still runs hot.
I don't even have to be doing anything heavy very litght stuff like listening to music or even having the screen on will make my phone run up to 40c or 105f, this has never happened in the past because in the past my phone mostly ran below 31c.

thats not hot. human body temp is 37C, 98.6F. is it warmer around you now then it was before?
It may be caused by the weather. Summer is coming if you live in the northern hemisphere.
I have only experienced the Nexus getting extremely hot when playing certain games that try to establish a constant connection to facebook.
Other than that no heat issues.

I live in Illinois not to far from Chicago and it just hit 90 degrees F a few days ago so its a possibility. But still on these cool nights it gets hot just this morning my phone was at 26c and after sending this message its already past 32c.
Another question is what temps are yall getting after light use with your phones?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
If I browse on websites for too long on my N4, it gets hot in the upper left corner of the phone. I'm in Canada and it's not exactly hot here.
In in the UK. Sat outside with light usage and running at 28°C.
Indoors is normal for me to see 32-40° with screen on.
Unless gaming I wouldnt be concerned with battery temps below 45°
