Data speeds on the Vibrant?

Coming from an N1, anyone noticing decreased data speeds? They both support 7.2 and T-Mo isn't above that, so shouldn't you see roughly the same?

wifi 9,842 down, 1,589 up best
3G 920 down, 602 up best
My n1 never seen above 5,200 down on wifi
my n1 never seen above 800 down and 550 up on 3g
I don't know if this has anything to do with it but I have mine set for GSM atuo prl

Slightly faster data speeds and I run them all........the.............freaking.............time.
Not a world of difference from the N1 and it may only be a placebo effect but I'll put it this way: You certainly won't lose speed when you upgrade to this phone. First speed test went north of 3Mbps and that area consistently got me 2.4-2.6Mbps with the N1.

First time I ran speedtest app I got 565kbps down and 1258kbps up...looked reversed to me.
Ran it again just now and got 979 down 582 up.
It's seems to be pretty random on the test, but real-usage on the browser is fast enough to have me very satisfied.
I'm in Miami, FL

Hmm.. I am getting anywhere from 2 to 2.4 Mb/s Down and 1.7 Mb/s Up (Raleigh/Cary NC).

The Vibrant doesnt support HSPA+ so the max you could get is 7.2mbps. Not sure if the N1 is HSPA+ compatible though.

niether does the N1...its maxed at 7.2 also

2-3Mbs down, 1-2Mbs up. Norfolk, VA.
400-600kbps down, 400-600kbps up. Virginia Beach, VA.

those are twice the speeds i'm seeing here in richmond, va with a MyTouch 3G (still waiting for my vibrant to arrive)

I'm in Tampa, FL and it depends on the latency on my end. When it says I ping at around 150 ms, the speeds hit below 1 Mb/s. When it's below 120 ms, my speeds are always above 2 Mb/s. This is download of course, upload just sucks period.

Im getting like 3.0 mbps everywhere i go. Even no bars, seems fast to me.

I haven't been able to test 3G yet but I'm getting:
(With wifi) 1 out of 3 bars, Imagine what it would be if I had full bars!
12172 kbps Down
2047 kbps Up
I love having wireless N support in this phone as my last one only had G and it was getting 7900 down.

On WiFi:
16416 Down
1508 Up
I pull about the same speeds on my desktop over a wired connection.
On 3G
5581 Down
576 Up
This is in Milwaukee, WI to a server in Chicago. I think the speed is great, especially when I compare it to my daughters speed on Sprint and friends on AT&T.

first speed test i took i for 4.7mbps down, ~500kbps up
in dallas our downstream is ****in awesome, upstream has always suffered.

Wifi -

Nexus 7 2013 Slow W-iFi

Hi. So I just got my Nexus 7 2013 version yesterday and I like it so far. But the things is, the Wi-Fi throughput speed I'm getting is much slower than my OG Nexus 7 (I usually get 10Mbps down, but on my new one it's down to 2-3Mbps). My router is the ASUS RT-AC66R with updated firmware, set to Wi-Fi N only. I tried resetting my N7 to the factory condition and still getting slower speed than my OG N7, disconnected all the wi-fi devices except it and I still get 2Mbps (I have a CIR from Comcast for 30mbps) Should I exchange this one for another one?

There must be something wrong with your setup. I was pulling 50mbps last night.

Doing a bandwidth test over your ISP will be bottlenecked by your ISP's connection. You really need to test by doing a local file transfer over your network.

Man, I wish I were getting that kind of speed. Anyway, my N7 2013 I'm connected to my 2.4Ghz network with the router set to auto channel, channel bandwidth set to 20&40 MHz whilst my N7 '13 has Wi-Fi optimization turned on and the channel set to Auto.

Lol I get 80-90 megabits/sec on wifi in my AT&T LG Optimus G, basically N4 with an sd card slot since I run N4 roms on it with slight modifications to the kernel and blobs.

Not having any issues on mine. This is on the 2.4 GHz freq in my house. Didn't try the 5 GHz.

Well, I just exchanged it with another 1. Well, I get a much better results even though I'm expecting a bit more. Anyway, I'm just gonna have to live with it and stick to 5GHz band since I'm getting at least 27 Mbps with my 3- Mbps Comcast plan.

Cellular strength and throughput

We know how much you like to stream, ahem, "videos", and so cellular data is mega-important. Rate this thread to express how you think the Huawei Mate 10's LTE performs. A higher rating indicates that it's fantastic: throughput is excellent and signal strength is top-notch.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add.

Can anyone with the smartphone tell how is it?
This is very important for me, since I usually go to areas with low coverage.
My actual smartphone, a LG V20, is not very good in this.

I have only had mine on Cellular today, but tested data rate on speedtest app at work. A good signal (4G+, where my OPO 3 only got 4G) and 66 Mb/s down and 55 Mb/s, up which is better than my 4G internet modem at home. So good data connection with good signal!
When I get to try it in more rural areas, I'll return and report the experience. I have a feeling that it will perform at least decent.

If by dual 4G you mean carrier aggregation then the answer is yes it does as it has one of the most advanced modems in the market CAT18.

Dual 4G And dual VoLTE is supported.
Anyone know of there is a hidden menu to see the carrier configuration? I wanna see to what bands my phone is connected and what's the configuration, T-Mobile has starting rolling 4CA in the Netherlands.
This is on 3CA

No, no phone can do that, have both SIM cards with dedicated radio modules, only one SIM card/operator can be used for mobile data at any one time. it can be register on GSM for both SIM cards, with different and same operator.

not bad
Mate 10

Made a test with line of sight to the 4G Antenna (about 60 meters) and got a pretty good result. I don't think the Mate 10 (ALP-29) is crippled when it comes to LTE

LTE works but sometimes I must on 800MHz BTS about 1-5 minutes to switch from edge to 4G. Any firmware this not solved. I have 142 FW EU.

Even that post is 1 year old, we need to clarify one thing:
- on Mate 10 Pro both SIMs can run on 4G (or 4G+) !!! In the same time.
Most of the dual sim phones are running with one SIM in 4G and the second SIM running in 3G or 2G.
But here both SIMs ca run in 4G/4G+ simultaneous; the phone is 4G dual stand-by, probably are you thinking at the dual sim dual active phones (like Huawei P9, for example), where you can call from the SIM1 to the SIM2 (both SIMs into the same phone).

And if we are talking about 9.0 vs 9.1, on 9.1 the signal is weaker than on 9.0 (in the same place, where the building has very thick walls, and where the signal fluctuates sometimes).
In areas with good signal there are no problems on 9.1 either

OnePlus 7 Pro T 5G Mclaren

Started testing my OP 5G MClaren around Dallas Fort Worth Texas. Even though the phone says 5g on the top right the phone is connecting to band 2 , 12 , and 66 through out the DFW region. I have yet to see the device connect to band 71. TMobile shows the are as having 5g. Has anyone else had the OP 5g show 5g when it is not on 5g? Has anyone seen band 71 live in DFW (I literally drove around the entire region and never got band 71)? I had a OP 6 before this and never saw band 71 in DFW. Have seen it in El Paso, South Oklahoma, Miami area. At this point I think this area is not live even though they advertise it. My thought process in getting the OP 5g MClaren was that DFW 600mhz is not completely clear (still some TV stations broadcasting) since band 71 never showed up and I saw the TMobile 5g map light up in the region I assumed the little 600 spectrum TMobile has in the area would be allocated to 5g. TMobile building penetration sucks really bad in the area and I want to take advantage of their 600 spectrum as soon as possible.

I know with 5G on I will not see Band 71 but when I turn 5G off and just use 2g/3G/LTE then I start seeing 71 in signal check pro. I feel like it is saying it is there but Signal Check Pro does not know how to display it. I know Cellmapper will show when connected to 5G NR states so I guess that means it's 71 it just not know how to display it. But only way I can see 71 is go into the options and disable 5G

I will give it a try today on my way back to work. Still I have never seen band 71 in the region even when I had the OP6. Wondering if it 5g only due to the limited spectrum available and if so I can't see it because apps don't recognize 600 MHz when 5g active. Anyone else have insight on this or can verify (besides what TMobile claims) that 600 MHz is active in the dfw region?

Your right. So I looked at my logs and 5g tower info is showing as unknown like you said it doesn't know what to do with it. I am not getting any thing on band 71 when on 4g only (assume it's because they only broadcast it in 5g due to limited spectrum in region). I noticed a speed difference when using 5g (speed test are around 50down and 20 up in the area on 5g) cell mapper does show a bunch when filtering for 71 (never noticed 71 on there because I am always zoomed in). Thanks man!!!

My McLaren 5G routinely connects to band 71 close to 75 in Plano, TX. Speeds aren't amazing by any means, but it connects via band 71.

Struggling with mine. On O2, 35Mbps on speed test, but buffering trying to watch 1080p on YouTube, let alone 4k!
Tried missus Vodafone sim, on her phone getting 60/70Mbps, on my Xperia, 35Mbps max.
No idea why speed is so low and I can't even watch 1080p!!?

Uninstalled YouTube updates. Old version appears to work fine on 4g

I get 207 Mb download speed on 4G. I'm on Youfone in The Netherlands, it uses the KPN network.

I tried the missus Vodafone again. Connected to LTE+ and 214Mbps download.

100mb/s from inside my home with 2 bars 5G
130mb/s inside my home with 2 bars 4G+
Pushing 27mb/s from inside my home with 1 bars 5G
pushing 87mb/s inside my home with 0 bars 4G+
I guess it is because my provider is sharing the back end for 4g and 5g and has less bandwidth reserved for 5G since I'm in a city
250mbs on WiFi (5) which is the max from my provider

https://twitter.com/olkitu/status/1277254257805266944 Got 1Gbps speed in Elisa 4G-network.

Very good for me on Vodafone in the UK. Reliable signal strength and call quality (tone) is nice also

I'm on Vodafone now instead of O2. Much better!

I've moved across from EE to Voda and I'm utterly dissapointed. Awfully slow!

Perhaps im misreading the signal strength bars but mine is always grey (no white bars), although installing a signal measuring app tells me my signal is good.
Speedtest shows 4Mbps & 0.60Mbps good thing I have fast internet at home.
Not tested out and about due to lockdown perhaps when I go to work things will get better.

I can confirm this too. My signal bars says I've got 1/4 bars (so around 25%), yet Network Signal Info says I've got 46%

Yep, the signal strength i.e. bars on the phone, appears to be lower than my other phones. On Vodafone in the UK, indoors on my iPhone i get 3bar LTE signal strength, on the Xperia 1 II I have no signal !! It's not looking good.
However start doing speed tests over LTE and I get folling results:
iPhone 11: Down- 11.5Mbps - Up - 7.24
Xperia 1 II: Down 13.9Mbps - Up - 8.31
I think Sony need to recalibrate their signal strength indicator.

Getting crazy numbers on O2 5G like 250mbps. 4G is quite good as well in my area but its in the 20-30mbps range.

My tests without CC aggregation are 15/10Mbit
With Carrier aggregation 105/1Mbit
Unfortunatelly it is really 1Mbit upload, even if I am 90m from BTS and have full singal, measured on 3 places - 3 BTS not overloaded (I am working for my mobile operator), same results. The only place where carrier aggregation is no problem is directly before BTS (about 15m). Seems like low power transmitter. I had my phone on repair twice, some things are better now, but still not good for the money.
