Super slow 3g stock.

I noticed recently my net was extremely slow. I ran a few tests and never get above 600kbps. When I was on cm7 i got up to 3mbps. Anything I can do?

Where are you from?
I had to use DEFY BASEBAND SWITCHER to get my 3G working.
Dont use it if you have 3G, but this must cause of your carrier. (I think)

i agree with jouse its probably your carrier, i did get an increase in speed but it was never that low, it was like between .8 and 1.5 mbps stock to atleast 2.5 mbps cm7 though I don't think its an issue of not having 3G cuz EDGE doesn't go that fast

It used to be much faster. its weird Going back to cm7 so i'll get the speed back anyway. Thanks guys.

I using 2 sim cards from Claro Dominicana, I pay around US$ 0.64 for 24 hours of internet. Very CHEAP!!
With one of the sim cards I use, I just get 256kbps, I dont know why its limited like that... the other one gets all 3G speed (up to 6 mbps at nights) , both of them are 3G and I dont why that happens.
Check if your carrier limits the usage of the 3G speed.

CM9 - T-Mobile UK - Speedtest

Hello all
just wondering if any of you guys use CM9/T-Mobile UK and also what kind of speeds you currently getting because mine are below 1mbps download and less than 0.5mbps upload :/
Truely shocking to say they are the first to bring out 4G!
Baseband Version : i9300BWLH1
Any help appreciated
Also if anyone on original T-mobile firmware can you advise of the default modem
Thank you

Thanks for the reply :/

I'm running stock and T-Mobile UK and I get about 3meg down and 1meg up on 3g and H+.
I don't think their 4g will speed up the 3g but you're right, yours should be faster depending on your connection.

Im using the lI8 leak no mods other then the gallery from note 2 and i get just over 7mb, possibly 8mb download but speedtest stops before it stops rising.
This is using t-mobile uk on hspda±

EE who will be running the 4G network is the company who own both Orange and T-Mobile. the I-9300 isn't LTE compatible so it's not worth mentioning that, as for your low speed contact customer services and ask for the iPhone data speed cap remover to be added to your account, you'll need to speak to technical, I had it added to my Orange account and speeds went from 500kb to 7000kb.

Im the same. Running stock rom Tmobile uk hspda.
Was actually pretty surprised i was getting that amount. I only get 2mb max with o2 broadband in the house!

Yeah, Although do you know T-Mobile isnt 4G. The company will merge into EE with Orange but at the moment EE is the 4G network in the UK. The other networks will follow after the auction next year!
Hope this helps

how fast is GPRS?

So on att I've always seen G flash but it never has ever worked except with T-Mobile but today while traveling in Tennessee I had G and it worked and was kind of speedy here are screenshots

That isn't right. It should be 56k speeds. Edge isn't that fast.

Sounds like a old outdated cell tower for AT&T .. at&t is doing a massive upgrade nationwide , gprs is slow compared to cdma .. its really 2g and I'm surprised you even got those speeds..
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2

I am very surprised. I have to use GPRS at work because I don't get any 3G signal and its not fast at all

GPRS is not EDGE. For all intents and purposes, they might as well be since they're both sloooooooow. EDGE is defined as 2.5 G which is a marketing ploy to differentiate molasses in Miami (EDGE) and molasses in Alaska (GPRS).

I tried to listen to 48 kbps radio stream and it was not fast enough.. had to switch to 3g

How do you force GPRS? I know you can force 3G and edge.

Get an iPhone 2G. Just kidding. I know that Windows Mobile, webOS and the Androids I've had all have a "network selection" tab in cellular settings. Uncheck "automatic network selection" and wait for the phone to show you options. Usually you'll get an operator's 2G or 3G option and you select which one you want. Windows Phone (post-Mango) has an actual 3G toggle. Other than battery saving I can't understand why you'd want 2G. Data consumption remains the same, just slower. If you're looking to put your browser on a diet, just install Opera Mini and enjoy compressed data and faster browsing speeds.

I have the note II. Only 3G and edge and lte I can't do GPRS.

I agree. It's probably a glitch on his phone or something. That's not physically possible.

Jebus, that's the most annoying sig i ever seen.
And the sad part is not impressive at all.
Just like the little kids that post spark plug changes to their Honda Civic mod list....

Ignore the first one as that is wifi..
Battery life, seems good to me so far, varies on each build of the custom ROM, as in gets better each time. I get a full day easily.

Once coverage spreads and the price drops by at least 50% I'll have some 4G but until then? Thanks to all the early adopters :good:

Bro, could you please let this be a global 4G LTE thread? It would be nice to see how everyone speed differ around the world right? Many people have global devices that can work on many different countries LTE network.
Anyways, if you choose to do so please change the thread title
Oh, global 3G speed tests wouldn't be bad either.

I'm apparently not limited to 50 Mbit/s, it was just the speed test app that sucked. This is with speedtest.net . Too bad the test finishes so fast that it does not reach full speed, especially upload. Is there any way to increase the test time?

The high latency is because the only node on speedtest with great speed here in Finland is as almost as far away from me as it can be

It's limited to this speed...but unlimited data.
