Just hit 3Mbps

for the first time since ive had sprint im getting the speed they've always claimed but ive never reached...im just wondering if anyone in and around pearland can tell me if they have similar speeds....i just know this isnt going to last but still a bit excited my 3g has never reached 3 or even crept past 1

I got 9 down in beverly hills yesterday with 4G, that was cool.

lol im so excited because well i have never seen 3Mbps on 3g on sprint, ive gotten 889kbps at most, i now this wont hold up for very long because if it could my 3g here wouldnt be so shoddy...this whole town is saturated in 4g and i cant get it on my evo for more then a min before losing it and my neighbor who has a franklin 4g stick gets 2bars and 500kbps on 4g...its ridiculous

I used to get 3 mbs down speed at the beginning of last year in the St. Louis area in 3g but its slower now but 4g is about 4.95 down now.

The speed test app isn't very accurate, download xtreme labs test app, its a bit more accurate, speakeasy website I think is better then speedtest.net and just like I figured my 3Mbps over 3g is back down to 600kbps

Best I ever got on 3G was about 2.6mbps. Got a little over 7 on 4G the other day in downtown Houston. Those 10+ speeds are awesome.

HOLY CRAPO!

Is that with 4G full bars?? thats bad, i get that with 3G in philadelphia, in center city I reached 9mbs early in the morning, then I average 4mbs-7mbs in 4G!!

The 3g in my area always runs at 1.5 to 2.3 but its a small town with not many sprint users.... Sadly I'll probably never see 4g

damn im lucky when i hit 1 Mbit/sec!

I can't wait until Lubbock gets 4G or I get to go back home to MD.

Good Nexus S review

http://www.intomobile.com/2010/12/2...ed&utm_campaign=Feed:+IntoMobile+(IntoMobile)
Best Nexus S review I've seen, but I do have one question. I just assumed the Nex S had hspa+ when I bought it but its stated often in this article that it doesnt. Ive done speedtests in a 4G area mutiple times and I consistantly get 5-7 mb/s which is the same my G2 gets in the same area. So is it just my G2 has a higher potential speed assuming perfect conditions?

yes, the G2 has a higher speed potential the Nexus S supports HSPA 7.2

Exactly. Speed depends not only on your hardware but how much bandwidth is pushed through the towers. So if your area is only allocated 7 mb/s, that's what you'll get even if your phone can do 21 mb/s. Really the only thing that type of speed is good for is tethering. Our browsers will do just fine on 1 mb/s. Now, to go read that review...

The review is alright but I do not like how much focus was on benchmarks, hspa+, and HD video recording.

I ran a speed test on my Nexus S against my brothers Evo "4G", which was on 4G...and my Nexus S came out on top, both times:

and people are *****ing about the lack of HSPA+...you guys forget that in recent tests Tmobile came out on top in speed

May I offer my own review -

Please let me know your thoughts.

General 3G Speeds

So, let's post what 3G speeds we get, and where (copying this thread after lurking around the Fascinate forum for a while).
Here is my speed in Dallas, TX.

Yea.. I get like 1.5Mbps on a good day.. Southern California, KA7

Try flashing the KB1 modem. I may not get as good battery as with KA7, but I do get MUCH better data speeds.

My average is 3-4 mbps, on a good day i can get 6 mbps. California area and modem is KA5-KA7.

I'm hearing all of this good stuff about KA5-KA7 modems... How is the battery life and how do they hold 3G? I know that KB1 will hold it for a while, but after it drops to 1 bar, I lose 3G and it drops to EDGE.

Well for me battery is the same with KA5-KB1 modems. But KB1 was really a nightmare for me, a lot of data drops.

I've noticed that with the KB1 modem. I just flashed the KA7 modem, and I'm actually holding data for once.

Here's what i have.

So you in India? Who is the provider and how much for 3G?

This is on KB1. I generally use KA7 because I work in the boonies and that holds the best signal for me out there. But this is for dang-a-lang swang-a-lang lol.

Here is mine. In McKinney, TX sitting here at work. Funny thing is, if I run this again right after this, I only get 1M down and 500k up? It's never consistent.
This is KB1

My best I've ever gotten was 5.38 Mbps download, 3.33 Mbps upload, 85 ms ping on a work trip in Birmingham, AL.
Dropped my jaw. It was FAST.

I'm currently at school, but when I get 3G, I can't wait to see what speeds I can get.

wow. That upload speed is impressive.

Average around 500-900 k download here in MA. Service is terrible around here in terms of data speed. Voice quality is great something att and Verizon don't have here

HSUPA makes a difference!

Prior to enabling HSUPA, I wasn't able to break 3mbps.. but now this:

Either that or AT&T just switched on HSPA+ here in Boston

looks good...either way it helped you out a lot!

No difference for me in dc area.

It's just 3g on steroids
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App

In Iowa City, IA, I've been able to get over 5 on a couple attempts since the HSUPA update, but typically average around 4. Definitely an improvement, especially with boosted upload speeds, but still not even close to this phone's capability.

New Port Richey on top (normally 1-1.5 up) and the poor ones were today at lunch in Oldsmar. Always poor there during the day, but can usually get at least 1. I don't think they can handle the traffic.

Mine actually went down when going to 1.8.3, thinking about flashing back to 5.7 and doing the radio mod thingy (so technical) and going back to the average of 4.5mbps. Now I get luckly if I reach 2mbps

While I was tethered last night I recorded speeds of 7.21 D/L and 1.58 U/L. This was in North Jersey.

I get the same speeds as my gf's iphone (1 - 3meg down / 1,2meg up)
So I don't think hspa+ is working yet..

I would agree if the speed were consistent, but it's not.

Heh,
I was at my Dad's office scanning and faxing a document for a client through myfax and man I was stuck at 300kb/sec and the total size was about 16MB. Needless to say, it took a while
Two days later I get the Gingerblur'd version of the newest update and I'm hitting 1Mb/sec up and those PDF files weren't too much of a problem.
It really does make a difference.

I am in Harrisburg, PA and I can get speeds up to 6500kbps dl and 2100kbps ul. Very Nice!

Coming off VZ and the thunderbolt...this is just right...14mb is cool but you can only use it a few hours cause your battery is lunch meat. Perfect balance between speed and battery life...
Not to mention max speed for me on vz 3g was only 300 k.

Post your mobile data speeds!

I had never been concerned with data speeds on the Moto G, it always just worked and I never had speed issues so I didn't worry about it for the most part. But after doing some testing I'm pretty impressed with the throughput on this device.

I"ll have to do a screenshot later but I know I don't approach your best speed. The best I"ve seen is about 45Mbps down and 8 to 10 up. I have AT&T in Greenville, SC and I get my best speeds testing to a Comcast server in Atlanta, GA about 110 miles away. My pings run 89-90 ms. Of course there's so many people here with cell phones and it's just you and that other person in ND isn't it. JK
