Everytime I run a speed test it will change from Modesto being closer to me which is true but sometimes it will say Kansas is closer. Even though kansas is really far. Anybody else experience that?

Yes i Have that problem now. I tried enabling GPS and clearing the data but that did not fix it either.
uninstalling the app did not fix the location problem.
I connected to my home WiFi and it found the sever that was really close to me.

I think its because of how ATT assigns ip addresses. If you do a who is of your ip it will be somewhere far far away from you lol.

Leave it on the main screen for about 3-5 min then after that go to settings and look for the closets server.

Made no difference. It has to be based on ip address and not phone location. Idk.
Edit: just confirmed this. I turned on my WiFi and it found the nearest to me.

How does Speedtest.net know where I am?
Your location is determined based on your IP address. Speedtest.net then uses GeoIP data from MaxMind to determine your approximate location. We have recently added Location-Aware browsing such as this one from Firefox all of which require explicit acceptance by you to better refine your location. All of these services are utilized to better serve you, most importantly determining the optimal testing server from among the hundreds we have available. Learn more about the MaxMind GeoIP data.

Why is my location not recognized?
If you are testing over a Wifi connection your location is determined by the modem's GeoIP information provided by Maxmind's database. Your GeoIP information must be updated with Maxmind's database before the change will be reflected in the application. If you are testing over 3G, 4G, Edge or a similar alternative, GPS is used to determine your location. Be sure you have enabled GPS locating enabled on your mobile device.

This seems to be correct because this app uses GPS when I open it. But it never seems to find my location.
Just connect to wifi, open speed test let it find server, which with my experience will be the closest to you run it once, open server changesettings make sure you selected closest to you, disable wifi and then run. Takes a bit but thats how I always get the server in Las Vegas

You can't shut speed test down use the task manager. Connect like I said make sure you just opened settings. Then while its opened and your in the server you want, push and hold the home button on the bottom and switch to settings. Turn off wifi and then use the task manager again and switch to speed test app and bam there ya go

Hey, if you're happy with your speeds, then that's all that matters. lol
I used to get better speeds. Not sure what happened.

Me? nope... I used to get 6mbps down and 2mbps up
I think they are working on the towers here in my area.
I did notice the speeds are not 100% all the time, they jump from 2 - 6 Mbps depending on time of day / weather / and everything else but knowing the phone "can hit 6" makes me feel better about "when AT&T" gets everything going it *should* be pretty fast

Yeah, it's pretty bad but it isn't the end of the world. My normal dl of 20mbs has fallen to 3-5mbs but my upload is still at 4mbs.

Sorry to hear about the wasted time you guys had to put in.
7-10 down, 2-4 up.
on GB leak
2.5 down when I'm usually dl' ing 15...tho when I go to dl stuff its def not sure slow at all
I guess if you are tethering it sucks, but I use my phone as a phone, 5mb is more than enough for me to whatever Want. what can you do on a phone with 15mb that you cant do with 4 or 5, seriously? I just tested mine on speakeasy.net and I got 7-9 down and 2-3 up.
Are you guys testing your speed using the speedtest app or with speedtest.net through your phone's browser? I know the app has some issues with accuracy.

I use speedtest app but I dont think the latest version has issues with accuracy. I usually get 15 down 5 up until I installed GB last night and all of my speedtests dropped down to 3 down and 3 up.

About the same for me. Tapatalk doesn't load as fast either. Love the gb features and the instant Gps lock but I'm a speed junkie.
Well this is weird, when I check the speed from the phone I average 3 down 3 up but when I tether my laptop I consistently get this: http://www.speedtest.net/result/1300046545.png
speedtest app still has issues, sometimes. I know you dont have to believe me, but I always get better results at speakeasy.net than I do with speedtest app. The app still sucks and constantly gives communication errors.
I was getting 4-5 mbps down on speedtest app and 12 down on speakeasy.net's speedtest webpage on this ROM. I think it all depends on where you test from.

They're talking about the Gingerbread leak. Looks like you're using the cm7 build and also have a different baseband. I did notice speeds of only 2-3Mbps when I got it briefly yesterday here in Raleigh, NC but just attributed that to either the speedtest app being flaky or them not having the network fully up. Didn't get a chance to run a browser based test before it went back off.
Ya the app is flake I got 14 mb down on a browser spedtest on the leak

Anyone else noticing the data symbol (h+) staying on even when connected to wifi?
Just curious... I'm running infused 1.4

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
itll sometimes reconnect to data. not sure whats making it do that but its not actually transmitting. dunno.
Probably because it is still connected to the network, att needs to keep tabs on you. Plus your calls/text are never coming over wifi (going into airplane mode means you don't get those)
Mine will pop up here and there but I'm guessing it's just checking syncs in the background. I do use the att address book. My data symbol doesn't stay on though when on wifi.

Mine does go back to hiding. Not sure why yours isn't unless you have some odd app that's keeping it open.
Mine does this as well. While I'm on wifi the h+ will come on and sometimes go away, but sometimes it stays on the screen. It doesn't seem to affect anything so I don't worry about it.
Just curious, are you sending or receiving any MMS msgs when this is going on?

Data works great on this phone, except for the fact that several times a day, maybe once every 2 hours, the data connection simply stops working. I can get it back by putting the phone into airplane mode, and then back again, but nothing else works.
If I try to go to a web page when the data is out, I get redirected to some web2go thing telling me I should buy some plan.
In my Mobile Network Settings I have the "Enable always-on mobile data" but don't see anything else that might help fix this.
Anybody have any ideas of what is going on, or better yet how to fix it?
I don't have the answer to your actual question.
However, if you don't want the Web2Go page you can change the User Agent on your browser from Android to Desktop.

I occasionally have the same issue, though mine only seems to do it on the transition from wifi to cellular. Sometimes toggling airplane works, sometimes not. Mine has always done that even stock. Oh, and it still does it even on your rom, undeadk9.
One other issue i've noticed is the wifi calling icon will randomly disappear and come back in about 20 seconds. I've only noticed this on SOC3.6, I don't know if 3.5 had this issue as I was testing virtuous when that was the latest. It hasn't caused any issues like dropped calls yet, but just a concern that it may.

I didn't! I'm behind in the forums and I'm on an old version of your ROM. I'll go look for that and get myself updated to the latest.
Well, it turns out that didn't help. I installed v3.5.0 and v3.6.0 patch and then turned on the data and waited...
An hour or so later it happened again
If I go to the browser on the phone it redirects me to a page that says:
