I am running tests on my 8525 in the Winter Park/Orlando Florida area thru slreports/mspeed test - I am getting the following results:
339
459
447
401
428
454
385
443
503
356
476
512
157
337
268
338
450
These speeds are clearly all over the board and do not seem to come close to what others are showing. My question is how do I tell if the slow speeds are due to my phone or due to my network? I would be happy with speeds consistently in the 650-750 range but as you can see, I never really come close.
Thanks for any suggestions on how to resolve this issue and obtain faster speeds.
Although the amount of programs running on your phone could be an issue (if too much CPU time is being used up by them) I think the network is always going to be the limiting factor. Try resetting your phone before each speed test to rule out the phone part.
If it's any consolation, I was always getting 700-900 on my speed tests with my current ROM until a week or so ago. Now I'm getting 300-600, with only occasional bursts over 800. I haven't changed anything on the phone, so logically it must be network-based, which means either more users sucking bandwidth, or less bandwidth available (hopefully temporarily)
Now, if everyone in the Kent area on T-Mobile could please stop using their phones when I want the internet, that'd be great! Thanks.
I'm so sick of Att...
I have seen speeds of 32-930
most of the time 200 or less. BOO for Att's network!
Advertisements had it from 400-700 for the norm, BS. I called them a few times and they say in my market I should be getting the max speed. Yeah right! they should just admit their network is not up to snuff and lower the monthly $ until they can provide steady fast speed.
I was wondering, on spec for the phone it says 7.2/2 Mbps, but I'm getting max speed about 2.4/0.3 Mbps even though my ISP is providing HSDPA/HSUPA internet.
What speeds do you get with HD maximum?

I went to http://www.dslreports.com/mspeed and used 1mb download and got 327kbps
what test did you use so I can send comparative results to you
Ps I live in Thailand so internet is not great no HSDPA as far as I know
I ran dslreports test now and got 1344 kbit/s.
Those speeds I mentioned before I tested on desktop computer connected to HTC via USB and using speedtest.net
I get low results with dslreports.com. The fastest download speed I have ever seen was when i connected blackstone to laptop via USB and enabled Internet Sharing. Then on laptop I used www.speedtest.net and got 3.8 Mb/s. Thats pretty good result IMO.
Aha. Way to go. So it's possible.
Speedtest.net is where I usually test the speed but that does not work on the mobile due to java etc.
My bro has just updated to 'N' Router and 50Meg Broadband with Virginmedia and I wonder how this can be shown on my mobile. Where can I go to test the speed that the HD2 is downloading at so I can compare My Belkin125 MIMO router at 20meg Broadband.
I have done the 'N' Cab update and not convinced that it has really made any difference to the speed of downloads.
TIA

Hi, you could try http://www.mobilespeedtest.com/. There's a video of an HD2 test here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRlx3bsp0ho.
DSLreports has a mobile speed test as well.
I get around 600+ kbps with my HTC HD2 on T-Mobile US.
i got 1026 Kbps in Austria with HSPA
For best results you have to choose http://www.mobilespeedtest.com/test/huge.php
Then it will test with 2 MB and you will enjou your full HDPA-Speed
EDIT:
Now im getting around 1565

How the...I get 250-350 on an average...I get full 3G signals and all that...
I live at las vegas.
Update: Oh yay. 101kbps. wow. I'm just above dial-up.
Mobilespeedtest gives values all over the place that reflect more of "where are you living?" than "how fast is my connection?"
I get between 1000 and 2000kbps results on my PC, on a 25Mbps line.
at home via router.. network speed
what download speed do you get?
756kb/sec in manchester, uk with 1 bar of hsdpa on vodafone

im just a step below Basic DSL which is 1500 kbps

What browser for speed tests
I've read that speed tests should be done using Internet Explorer. It seems that Opera and Skyfire use their servers and could impact the results. Could someone say if this is truly the case.
dont bother with mobilespeedtest (well unless you live next door to them)
I've run loads of tests from phone and home (v media) and their results are always different and always slow.it reads my ten meg bb as never better than 2 or 3 meg.don't have an alternative though,sorry.

Yeah, every speed test seems to suffer in this area.

certainly for sky fire, yes, they are connecting completely on your behalf.opera is a bit different cos it doesn't always user the proxy(think theres a difference between opera mobile and opera mini, plus turbo mode in the new version...)
course, tethering the comp and running speedtest.net (always been bang on for me) from the comp would work.
In the default Opera version on the T-Mo US HD2 I got around 600 - 700kbps.
In IE through mobile speed tests right after the opera test I got 4762kbps
I'll have to tether it later and see what speedtest.net says lol.
Just wondering, do anyone here feel that the 3G speed is slower on the Xoom in comparison to other devices?
I did speedtest on my Galaxy Tab and Xoom and realize that the speed difference is rather significant. I'm not sure whether to attribute this to Honeycomb or the individuals apps.
I once tested it at 7Mbps down! It is faster over HSDPA here than it is over my ADSL WiFi!
are you using the stock or custom rom?
I was wondering if I was the only one who notice the link speed is only 433 on 5ghz. I have 866 with a s8 on the same router. Any ideas

Different hardware, different Wi-Fi chip inside the Xiaomi, less speed. For a budget phone it's an decent speed. What's your Internet speed anyway at home or where you use the 5ghz?
I'm testing a gigabyte connection and I always test new devices max speed. I'm ok with 433 irl about 250ish. But I get more than 500 on a s8. I was wondering if it was a setting or something. Thanks
Even POCO F1 is 866 Mbps
same here max on 5ghz is 433mb it does max my speed which is 220mb, on 2.4ghz max i get is 67mb, I also came from S8 which on 2.4ghz gave me 120mb , the speed i get is still more then enough for me and how much the device costs can live with that and the range is similar to S8
Thanks
