Nice little read for uk users. Fastest down/up speeds - Galaxy S III General

Come across this a few mins ago. If this is to be true then the 9mbps I get now will be a lot faster

This makes so much sense, I have generally slow speeds but I have noticed my data has returned to normal since it was reduced to a crawl right after the iphone launch, but now its how it was before, and I see both the towers next to me recently got capacity upgrades!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
pretty cool, thanks for posting. in the next 6 months my area is getting some upgrades.
Nice. I am very excited.
They are putting work into my area. 34 upgrades and 1 new tower. 13 more updates in next 6 months. No wonder my 4g is stellar

Speed tests

What are most people getting with speedtest.net app?
I have ATT. Just got 4.20 Mbps download. 0.88mbps upload. I've never hit 4 and hardly hit 3. Either ATT improved or the Note is better than the Atrix.

How is the battery life with the new radio and update leak?
I'm actually thinking about flashing back to ke1. This new one and the previous seemed to get worse reception in my area. Ymmv depending on where you live...
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
Laying on my couch i previously got 2 bars. I see no difference so far in the 2 hours i have had it flashed. I like being updated though since i assume something was changed for the better. I'm running cm7.2.
While my signal has not increased, I will say my 3g speed has almost doubled on a consistent basis.
Running crossbones 2.5

I thought it was just a coincidence or a setting but I have been using the new radio for 2 days and checking my 3g speeds diligently and I too have had speed gains. Getting the highest download speedtest scores I have on my device in my area.
Upload speed is about 1/2 of what it was (who cares? Not me.)
I hope it sticks and is not just a fluke.

I seem to have better reception and faster 3g as well. My battery life also appears to have increased. This radio is way better than the radio in the previous leak. I'm in Houston by the way so I guess it depends on where u live.

Okay after a little more observation speeds are about the same I have run the speed test periodically throughout the days I've had the new radio and it seems like my high speeds are coming from low traffic in the early hours of the morning I am still trying to figure it out.

Yeah I'm getting the same mixed bag :/ I'm getting much more reliable data speeds but that's it, and I'm not sure that the 4.0.4 leak isn't half the reason for it. I'm in a backwoods area on the edge of Sprint's coverage and on KE1 I could make phone calls no problem, with a few dropped calls here and there. With this new one I can't make calls unless I step outside... Data speeds are more stable and texting seems more reliable but I can't make phone calls worth $&%#... In town and at work it seems much nicer, but then I think some credit has to go to the official 4.0.4 as well, not the radio.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
I'm seeing faster 3g, don't have 4G in my area to compare. Reception seems the same.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk 2 Beta-5
Oh and that's compared to KE5, which was the better working radio for me previously.

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!

I'm on the 10 GB mobile share plan also. Maybe your signal is weak where you're at? Also i did mine pretty early in the morning so probably network traffic was low
To be getting those type of speeds what apn ate you using? Speeds are never that high in Houston.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk
I never touched the APN, just left it how it was out of the box:
I posted my very highest speed but Ive also gotten down to 16 mbps and everything in between.
My APN is untouched as well. Also on the 10gb mobile share, but I'm up in northern Virginia.
Never had data speeds this fast on my iPhone... Same network, same location. I think the Note 3 (usually) does a good job of maximizing data speeds!

No tweaks here, I was bone stock when I hit 45 down. These are my more typical speeds at home, with 2-3 bars.
Edit: just noticed that that want even lte just now...Good h+ speeds nonetheless
