getting extremely slow dl speeds (about 10-100kbps) very high ping (in the 1000s)
terrible upload
never went over the data limit i have the 2gb plan and i barley use 400mb a month
checked the coverage map and its covered in dark green (excellent coverage)
have full signal bars. (not anymore:/)
called tmobile up and asked them whats the deal they said they will fill out a report for my area. that was about it.
flashed latest gingerbread radio still same crap speeds.
running zips creamed glacier 4.03 w/o any kernel tweaks
anyone else experiencing this shizzle?
forgot to mention my sisters sensation 4g is also getting terrible speeds too (about the same as mine) and other sisters iphone 4s

so you think the ROM is whats causing the problem?
Had the same issue after flashing a different Rom (don't remember which one, sorry) however recently flashed IceColdInsomnia and my 4g speeds seem to be back to normal.

Switch to 2G only and run a speed test.
I got half a Mb down and up on "4g" with stock radio....
my speeds are still good but they are slower slightly. I wonder if Tmo is getting congested with the new monthly 4G plan
Sent from my HTC MyTouch 4G using XDA
There are a couple of things you can try for slow data speeds. A different radio/RIL pair may help, and you might also try the rcdata.img fix for TMO. First post in the Sensation radio/RIL thread has more info. I do not know if it is compatible with the MyTouch, we just figured it out for the Sensation. It is flashed through bootloader with a PG58IMG.zip file that contains a file named rcdata.img. There are two different versions, then you match a build.prop setting to it.
check it out
My speeds were around 4mbps when I first got '4G' but now I don't even get 1mbps. I think its stupid to be paying for something you dont get.

I woke up this morning and looked at my phone and it was doing a PRL update on its own. Im thinkin.. ok this is strange. So when it updated my phone rebooted. I'm thinking WTF is Sprint up to. Well, when it got done I ran a speedtest. Odd thing is, my PRL still shows 60676 in the about phone, but check out my 3G data speed now.

I havent seen speeds like this here since like October. I wonder did they add a new tower by me or something??
YOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ummm you sure your not using an airave?
I dont have an air rave.
Here's a speedtest done tethered through my laptop. I'm not sure WTF happened overnight but damn.
Now the question is, is it going to stay consistent like this. But im pretty amazed so far I have to admit.
I was running CM7 and saw this thread so I decided to check it out, about 0.6Mb up and down. Flashed into Sense (Fresh 3.5) and now I'm getting about 1.2 down and still about 0.6 up.

4g seems a little more flaky here at work with the new radio Getting 1 bar to no bars where I used to have a fairly solid 2 bars.
Works for.me

Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I have actually been a bit slower on 4G. Use to get a solid 2 bars at the house and now barely get one, sometimes. Download rate one Speedtest.net dropped down to just around 6M from 7 Mb before the update.
I'm a radio noob...if I update my radios can I still flash back to my old backups? Can I also use CM7 as well?
your ROM and your Radios are two different things. you can use any ROM you want and your radios won't change, unless there's a ROM that flashes new Radios, too.
Anyhow, I flashed mine here at work and haven't had a chance to do much, but I am getting a full signal for a change, which is rare inside this building.
All is well for me. I am on CM7, so I updated the radio, flashed a Sense ROM (Sprint Lovers) updated Profile/PRL, and restored back to CM7.
Reception seems better, but it could be my imagination. I'll need more time to tell.

I never get anything over 1mb on 3G on cm7 (updated & tested). I just switched to the rooted ota just to run a 3G test and hit 2mb on 3G. I'm stoked because that means my 4G might be faster but I won't get my hopes up.

How many bars do you have? Have you done the fix to get rid of the proxy? Possibly start running script manager with the turbo 3g script. Let me run a speed test and ill let you know my.speeds.

I get between .8 & 1 mbps down with one to two bars on MIUI. I assume that's average, but I rarely use 3G, I'm usually on wifi.
Sent from my Evo + MIUI using Tapatalk!
I use get almost 1.5 Mbps near my home. Since last Nov, I'm lucky to get 200Kbps down and 480Kbps up. That's right, faster up then down. I guess Sprint thinks my EVO is a server. In the same area I have 4bars.
I'm not looking forward to the IPhone stooges looking for unlimited data.
Speed test app is being stupid and won't locate a server for me. However, at home in the boondocks with an airrave I get 1.3mb down and like 350 kb up. When I'm in town (20 miles from home, lol) I get probably 600-1000 kb down and 150-400 kb up.

As we all know, HTC and Sprint borked downloads for apps like Rhapsody, Mog, Thumbplay.
I recently ran across the subject and i found a fix. It is very simple.
1. Get your MSL, There are many ways, call Sprint, Download the app MSL Reader from the market, CDMA workshop
2. After you have your MSL go to your phone and type ##3282#
3. Click Edit Mode
4. Click Advanced
5. Scroll down to HTTP PD Proxy Port & HTTP PD Proxy Address
6. Change HTTP PD Proxy Port to 0 (zero)
7. Change HTTP PD Proxy Address to 0.0.0.0
8. Go enjoy Downloads and a .20-.60 mbps increase in 3G speeds!
-All credit to original finder of this fix, i am just passing it along and found the speed increase. Also when you flash a new rom it will back to old settings so remember to re-apply and it wont make you more vulnerable to anything.

funny thing is i tried that and only to find out my evo already came with those settings. just unrooted and got s-on again so i could return it to sprint. ever since i got my evo about a week ago reception been fine then all of a sudden for the past two days its been on 1x it hardly ever gets 3g now, and when it does its just for a split second. is that normal for sprint, only reason i ask is i mainly use my verizon phone for calls and such.

Thanks for confirming I'm not crazy! I have had weird issues with the XDA app for over a year, doesn't seem to get updated too frequently...
Anyways, now that I'm in front of a computer, I can upload.
EDIT: I did run the 3g Turbo Charger script from zeppelinrox too, so I hope that means that the script is working! I didn't run it bone stock, then after the script too (you know, like you SHOULD do, DOH!)... Maybe I'll undo it, try it, then just redo it...
The first test (on the left) I tested my wifi too, which wasn't performing too good last night.
The second test in the one from Madison, I was receiving a text during that one, so I think(?) that's why it's so low compared to the others...

Just updated my prl, and your right very unstable. Hard to keep a 3g connection now. Keeps bouncing back and forth between 3g and 1x. Wish i hadnt updated it. Anyone on the previous prl still that knows how to pull it?
A buddy of mine has the iPhone 4s - not making a thread of android vs apple - but we're both on AT&T and he is getting speeds of 6mb. Ran the test 10 times on both our phones and I can't touch 3mb. We're both running speedtest and I've tried different apns and keep getting the same speeds. We're both in same city same area.
Any explanations. Is there an APN the iPhone is using or the radio on it that is giving it better speeds?
I used following APNS: AT&T HSPA+ , AT&T US HSDPA, AT&T US.
From SG, I got over 5Mbps always. (@ places where I can get 4G)

What radio are you using? If its not N_01.77.30P or N_01.77.36P, you should run an update since AT&T capped the data speeds on older Atrix radios.
