OK so I live in the Chicago land area however I am right outside of the range of a 4G signal.
On 3G.....and I am not even sure if I am on 3g/Ev anymore because the 1x icon is disabled in the stock rom...I only get 9.5 kB/s download and 13.8 kB/s pu. OR if you are on default setting that converts to 76kbps down and 111kbps up.
When I had a touch pro 2 I was getting MUCH faster speeds. I have researched somethings and I found that we had issues with upload but never saw anything about download.
Is this just me or is something wrong?
Try this fix.

Well for me it is the towers, in south texas i am lucky to break 100k up, right now i am in houston and i am getting about 1.2 megs up on 3g. For some reason the south texas area (mcallen,edinburg..etc) just has very poor 3g speed.
Also look into the Roam Control app to use the Verizon network.

Verizon only allows roaming on their 1x network. This would not help the OP
Also go to the dialer and type *#INFO*1111# then select phone information. Scroll down to network type and see if you're actually connected to EVDO or 1x

For 3G Try This..
It may already be implemented in your ROM, just check again:
Steps:
1. Know the MSL
2. Dial ##3282#
3. Go to multimedia
4. HTTPPD Proxy Port must be 0
5. HTTPPD Proxy Address must be 0.0.0.0
Tried that but it was already set.....
sooo no fix on that

It says I am on CDMA - EvDo rev.A
Signal Strength is -91dBm
Judging by your speeds in your OP, that is 100% 2G speeds (aka 1x). You're just in a dead area - I was getting those speeds until about 2 weeks ago. Sprint upgraded their network in my area.
Its samsungs radio. Cant be the towers. Im in nyc and
My hero gets hspa speeds (well average around 3mb/s dl and 1.2mb/s ul)
Whereas i have to be on "4g" with the epic to even get close to and finally pass that.
I feel they gimped the 3g radio to make 4g seem more special cuz the 4g has relatively great speeds

At home, I can pull 1.2 meg down all day, every day. Down around the Purdue campus, i'm lucky to hit 400 kbps.
I'm in Southeast PA (Philly suburbs). I pull anywhere from .5mbps to 1.2mbps down and .3mbps to .6mbps up on Speedtest.net in 3G. And about 3.5mbps to 6.1mbps down and .5mbps to 3mbps up in 4G.
I did the 3G and 4G adjustments and it definitely made a positive impact.

Hello fellow Boiler! I second the Purdue numbers.
So when you say the radio you mean its a physical limitation or is it something software related?
I guess my next questions is in 2.2 do we get a new radio if its software related.
i live in new york
i jus did the fix on both 3g and 4g
3g: dl: .74mbps ul:.14mbps
4g: dl .95mbps ul:.04mbps
whats with the up speeds in 4g being less than 3g?
About 20 miles north of Austin.
3G, I usually pull about 1.5-2.0mbps down.
4G, at home where I have no real reception (~-90dBm), I get about 4mbps, sometimes hitting 7. In my office at work, where the connection is even worse (~-101dBm), I'll get about 1.5-2.5mbps. When I'm outside and have a good signal (~-70dBm), I'll hit around 7-8mbps, sometimes peaking around 10-11.
so many issues i don't know where to start!
1)first i had wifi issues with router using wddrt
2)phone HEATS up alot especially using LTE
3) network 3g/H slow speeds ( not sure if its my account on rogers, or the rogers network) but my speedtests on both H,3G,4G(LTE) have been painfully slow
4) bad radio antenna?
i have solid blue 3 bars of H, yet i can't seem to connect to any apps to the internet
now when i try to install app, it keeps saying no space
just did a test on speedtest using toronto server and i got 0.94Mbps 136ms ping on 3g
my 4g(LTE) was even slower! .58Mbps one bar on 4g using ltemobile.apn settings
using PHONE INFO app, i mostly get UMTS more than i get HSPAP signal strength around -103 dBm 7asu
Of course the phone heats up using LTE, because it is not supposed to use it! Yes, it has a SOC that can utilize it, but not the amplifier and other pieces on the board.
If it's taste sour then it could be a lemon!
I doubt the phone's a lemon. You probably fudged something up. Wipe/format/re-flash and try again.
If that fails, I live in Toronto. I'll fix it.
how do i get a constant HSPAP signal? 90% of the time my signal is 3g UMTS which is very slow?

You don't. The phone goes from UMTS to HSPA+ when data is actively transferring. If data is not transferring, it will sit on UMTS.

it depends.. depends where the tower is in relation to you, how busy the network is, and what kinds of speeds your provider gives. does it say 4G in the notification/status bar?

I think its not LTE cause normal or low speed is 15 Mbs some get even 35 Mbs so i think you have some problems i get 12-13 Mbs on HSPA+
Hope this helps.please hit thanks

does it say h or 4G? and just because its lte, it doesnt mean you will get 30mbps all the time. you can be on the edge of lte coverage and barely get 5mbps, but its still lte. how your upload speed?

then you are connected to lte. maybe your area is either very congested, or on an edge of the towers coverage.
I think the major benefit of lte is it's superior building penetration and more consistent signal.
It's all relative on coverage but yes, your speeds are prob lte. I go from 35 to 5mbps depending on location. I had same thing with Verizon lte.

honestly i don't really mind because i only use it for web browsing as i have limited data. I just want higher speeds for bragging purposes. But the slow speed could be because of my cell signal. I always get 2 bars. I don't think i've ever seen my phone at full bars. Do ROMS/kernels affect this?
i remember seeing my phone at 4 bars before. After installing cm/francokernel/flashing .33 radio/changing apn, i think all this might've affected my signal somehow.

I haven't noticed roms or kernel affecting signal. I think the bars are mostly for voice and text service, not data, but is a rough indicator I guess

Hey all, so it's been a couple of days and getting to the point, I've been getting roughly 6-12 Mbps on the phone as download speed and sometimes but very rarely making it to 20. I live in a very suburban, non congested area as well so I don't know if it's just me, but has anyone else on Verizon had this slow data issue and if so is there a solution?
I'm getting pretty much the same speed as my pixel 3 XL was. It's probably a tad bit slower but in everyday use I cant tell any difference
I'm getting great speeds

At work at my desk 91Mbps down and 19 up.
Working great for me in the SF Bay Area.

Thanks for this tip! I've always had crappy network speeds since they reintroduced the new "unlimited" plans (in my area it went from getting 50 Mbps down to like 2 Mbps) after that. And of course Verizon refuses to accept they did anything on their end to cause the decrease in speed. But anyways on my 6T I was getting around 4 Mbps down and after changing to LTE/CDMA/UMTS (Auto) I'm pulling around 20 Mbps down!
I have a tower behind me a few hundred yards. Just pulled 80 down and 11 up. Same network settings.
I am getting similar speeds to what I got on my G7.

No problem, but just a fair warning sometimes the phone will automatically revert itself back to the other one because of the"auto"status of this version. I was experimenting more and found the permanent fix to be changing it to "LTE/WCDMA"
Seems to be hit or miss for me. The other day I got this (https://www.speedtest.net/result/a/4400707884) 70 down and 20 up. But then sometimes I wont get more than 5. Still definitely faster than my note 8 ever was tho. I love this phone man.
Knox, Tennessee area, 58MB down, 6 up.
Every test I have ran has been great!! Multiple times and locations!

I'm getting DL speeds of about 20+ Mbps and Upload speeds of anywhere between 1-3 Mbps, indoors. Is this normal?
I love my 6t it is blazing, The problem I'm having is my signals and data speeds since upgrade from op3. Normally I would average -55 to -80 Max, that's with cloudy sky's bad weather. I live in between the 2 largest cities in the state of Louisiana, Signals are blazing fast normally. I don't know if it's just the radio of the 6t but it's horrible these are my screenshots standing outside in my driveway.

No dropped calls it hangs for about a second when dialing. the problem is data, at&t and TMobile says I'm not throttled an no bad network congestion. According to them my speeds should be above 20mbps and higher but I'm lucky to get 1.2mbps.

Yes it does, at&t and TMobile say nothing is wrong. Something is wrong if I drop from 30+Mbps to Barely 2 Mbps.

Never had issues with at&t or my TMobile service before, what is strange is the data speeds being identical. That has never happened my TMobile service always been faster than my at&t service. I'll have time this weekend to root and play around with network guru to lock bands see if that's helps.

Or try to go to a different carrier shop and ask if you can test out their speeds. See if it makes a difference. Compare it to the employees that work there. If yours is still slow, maybe you have a faulty device.

Im thinking the bands could be locked to one instead of connecting to multiple bands. I hope it's not faulty device but it is worth a shot, I have TMobile service and at&t and they are the same speed for some reason. My TMobile speeds range from 50-70Mbps and at&t 30-45Mbps, Both are locked at 1.2Mbps. I use at&t service for work and TMobile for Personal use. I have the 13 Model so I could test with Verizon.

Let's say it isn't the network. The next step would be to get a new sim card. If that doesn't work, ask your provider to set up your OP6T as a LTE only device.
Well I managed to fix my problem with my network, rooted check network guru everything was fine all bands worked. So I googled stock files flash via fastboot all is good now. Both my networks are back to normal, guess it was just something with the radio. :good:
