T-Mobile throttled my speed on my G2 which sucked.... I was exploring the the system files on the device with root explorer and noticed a folder that said throttle and delted it after switching to R/W and my speeds instantly came back. Can someone else try and see if they have the same results my speeds were right around 2mb down before now I'm back around 8-9mb

I'm not sure I believe this... that would be the lamest implementation of throttling I've ever heard of. Dependent on the phone OS? Yuck. They'd have to be genuinely retarded to implement it like this.
I noticed mine came back after a reboot. Went to look for it again and there it was. Data/system/throttle.

This would be incredibly convenient and extremely amusing if it were the case. I deleted the folder in my directory and got pretty much the same crappy speeds that I have at my job (600 down, 100 up). I'll have to wait until I get home for further testing. Hmmm... I'm going to reboot and take a good look at those files. I wonder (assuming these truly are referenced in a data throttle) if the files can be modified so they're not replaced upon reboot?
***Edit*** Opening file /data/system/throttle/698285108 reveals values of
1:6:29006:982164224:198106875:0:0:0:17008:166777478:21947529:0:0:0:2:1290751200000:1293343200000
***Edit2*** Rebooted and opened directory again, to see /data/system/throttle/temp which revealed different values
1:6:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1291140294223:1291140294223
ran a speed test and obtained basically the same results I had before. However, after the test, I checked the directory again and found a new copy of the old file - /data/system/throttle/698285108, which had the value of
1:6:382479:0:0:0:0:0:52205:0:0:0:0:0:1:1290751200000:129334320000
When I ran few speed tests after I saw this file and saw significantly lower speeds (300-400 down, 50 up). However, I'm still at work and my signal often fluctuates, so I cannot attest to the validity of these trials. My question is, if this directory is created in the G2 and the MT4G, does it exist in pre-HSPA+ devices? Does the Nexus One see throttling like we do? If not, that could give strength to the theory that throttling is software-based and not necessarily controlled at the data source. If I were T-Mobile, it would make reasonable sense to me to send out a signal (or command if you will) to an individual GSM device once conditions were met (exceeding data limit) that would force the device to throttle down. This raises the idea that the signal would have to be sent again with a reverse command once that billing cycle is completed. Is this practical? We all probably have different billing cycles (unless you're on a business account). I'm just speculating here, so try not to put too much stock into this.
You could try putting a bit of non-recognizable gibberish in there and change its permissions so it can't be overwritten.

Yeah, EDGE/GPRS isnt affected by throttling. In fact, edge becomes much faster of the the two when throttled. Stupid 3G throttled at 60kbps....
Deleting the folder entirely might work.... I know I saw some references to throttling in services.jar when themeing the other day. could unpack the jar and delete them and repack and push.
The data folder is just logging stuff so that wont work. services.jar is what needs to be attacked.
I'm a heavy data user I'm well over the 5 gig data throttling cap check your data usage you might not be throttled, checking back the file was rewritten but with different values. Checked on my vibrant and the folder was not present maybe just in the 4G devices so far.

Also noticed that if your tethering to another mobile device for instance I use my vibrant strictly as a tablet tethered to my G2 they don't notice that your tethering whichis useful if you have multiple devices and want to pay only one data plan.

They claimed deleting it un-throttles data and it regenerates following a reboot.... so, yes they named it throttle and it works. there is more to it that just that folder but its good enough for temp. use...
What in the world would you expect it to be named? Secret folder or some code name, lol? Remember, the security on this phone is so high... I doubt they even thought to try and hide it.

Good news everyone! (lol! I love the professor from Futurama) I found where everything is taking place. In services.jar (system/framework), there are several lines referring to throttling. I gonna see what I can edit out and will need someone is somewhat knowledgeable enough to push the services.jar into their system/framework folder. I would do it myself but I'm not throttled ATM. I will be later this month, I sure so if I have to wait.... I will. Also, when I have it ready... I need the name of your ROM so I can get the correct services.jar. Mine is themed so I doubt mine will match your phone.
TESTER!

I'm beginning to wonder if you where even throttled... 2MB isn't throttled. The throttle speed is 60kbps. Did you get the throttled text message? I know for sure because it happened to me last month. I was at 9-12MB and got the text message. Then was throttled to 60kbps... It disappeared at the beginning of the new bill cycle.

I have read over the warnings in the overclocking thread here I just wanted to get some other people thoughts. I was thinking about over clocking my G2 but I don't want to hurt the phone... I do have Best Buys warranty on the phone so how does that affect it? Any thoughts would be great.
Just do it- you'll be fine. Why would you buy a warranty from BestBuy, though...?
Overclocking it does have its ramifications on its life expectancy, due to the heat it'll generate and excessive use. The only real reason to overclock is "Why not?" At it's current state, the phone is fast and already out-performs some of the other phones on the market.
I'm sitting at 1 GHz but really, the marginal difference you'll care to notice is in miliseconds from bench tests. So if you want to, be smart about it's usage and get SetCPU. It'll really help you manage your CPU smartly.

Bought the phone at bestbuy and there warranty plan is much better than T-mobile... I tend to break phones so this time seeing as its a really nice one i wanted to pay for insurance... insurance is what i ment not warranty.... sorry
Ok just about there but have another problem
I got past my last problem the files were just not d/ling so i d/led them onto a pc and tranfered them onto the phone via USB... so i get to the gscript point and cpoc works fine but when i go to run noreboot and oshitttt i get this message... "delete_module vision oc" failed"... I put the vision OC file on the root directory... first folder as it opens not within a folder on the SD card... so i don't get why it is not working?
Please help!

Sorry... like I said I am new and very green with android... how do I do this... I still see the file vision oc or whatever (guessing that's the overclock file you are talking about) on the sdcard after I tried running gscript. I don't know if that means it hasn't been pushed (moved)? To data/local... when I go to astro I see a data folder but it says its empty when I go to it.
Also I don't know which binary file to use the before the ota or after I have the ota insrtalled so I would think I would use the one after ota... but ya not sure. thoughts?
Ok, just for S's & G's ... I decided to try the data throttling removal zip Myn provided with RLS5. Now in my area I've had speeds as high as 8mb DL, but generally hover around 1.5mb. Not really what I expect from "blazing fast 4G" lol.
So I ran about 30 speed tests before I installed the removal zip. They all looked very similar to this. (No links = FAIL)
1.75mb DL & 0.45mb UL
I installed the zip file and ran another 30 or so tests. They all looked very similar to this. (FAIL again!)
3.45mb DL & 0.90mb UL
I did this between the hours of 8pm and 9pm, why service really starts to get laggy. It still can't eat a Twinkie faster than a fat girl... but I'll take what I can get.
Anyone else using this??

AFAIK, it'll only work on RLS5, but if the services.jar is unchanged between Sense ROMs, then it should work on others. Just take a Nandroid and try it yourself.

Is it me, or the AOSP roms having problems with consistent connection? Or lower speeds, i had to ultimately go back to Sense because Cyan and MIUI connection was slim to none in my room. I don't understand why the rom would do this though, the rom and radio is separate right?
The last two days have been bad in east of the lake around the Seattle area. My 4g sometimes just keeps looping to connect. Media streaming is crappy. Something must be going on. But when I get connected to 4g it is pretty fast around 9mbps.

Before 4G was "officially" out in los angeles I was getting 9mb down, I tried last week and got 1.2mb down. That's horrible and I am assuming it's because once sprint said 4G was available everyone started using it. A girl that just started working with me has the EVO and was saying how she keeps 4G on all the time just because. I wish I could get faster speeds too : (

I live in the Freemont/Ballard area and I have been experiencing horrible 3g speeds.
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.
just googlesearch "nexus throttle xda" and you should find 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.

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.

Both files were created today.. Also I updated my PRL today to 01115

No carrier throttles through the phone anymore. They throttle at the tower if they do at all, so don't worry about it.

I upgraded my PRL today also, but my temp file was made about a week ago and my numbers are different....
I have it as well, updated PRL yesterday to 01115. My numbers are different also but they look like a phone number, mine are 209XXXXXXX. When I started with sprint I lived in the 209 area code!
Another thing I noticed is my file was created at 5:21, after a bit I checked it again and the time had changed!
Not paranoid but maybe this is something like what AT&T did to find the people tethering. Lock Bootloaders coming
another thing, I get my data and calls from Verizon towers. There is one real close to me. Well since yesterday my DATA SUCKS!! I have slow azz speeds, down and up. The thing is I live in the country so the network is not congested here, I always had fast speeds!
I deleted the file and got 1 MB down like before!!! A few minutes later the file came back and my speeds dropped to .3 MB down! WTF!!!!!!
I am running a logcat to try and see what is building the file, but I have to leave fore work soon.
OK If you change permissions to NONE with root explorer it does not effect you. I dont know if it will fix itself though. I seen the file being created via logcat and then my frickin phone rang so I lost the spot!! Dang wife, LOL.
Do NOT change permissions on the file!!!
I did and my speed returned, then a few minutes later my phone rebooted on its own. It would not start up and was in a boot loop. I wiped cache and dalvik and that did nit save me. I had to restore a nandroid. Could the file be coming from the protection app?
