Horrible download speed - HTC Inspire 4G

Running TPC for about 1.5 months now. hsupa is enabled. getting ~1.4mbps upload, but like 300kbps download, no matter what server I select, and at various parts of the city. Used to never be that slow. Any ideas?

Same here. Mine is around 700 upload and no more than 600 on the best server.
EDIT - Moved about 2 miles and now the down speed is 3200 and up is 1300.

4G rooted inspire speed is slow to fast

I have an Inspire that is rooted,and after 5 different Roms for1 day each, I have settled into the revolution ROM and it really works great.I have my unlimited plan4G (most of the time I think)and I have my tendering. My question is when running the "sweetest.com" application I get 331 down and 783 up inthe evening and 2592 down and 1447 up in the morning until about noon,is this network congestion? Is there a different radio mod or flash or something that software locks the radio in HSUDA mode or whatever is making it that fast?? If anyone knows of a setting or .apk that addresses this or a setting possibly I would appreciate it,or an explanation if its not a tweakable thing might save hours of obsessing over trying to fix it.Thanks, Vegas

Yeah, the slow speeds at times are due to all the iphones tying up the network.

Funny, but I notice my speeds do the same. But most of the time it's relatively good.
I definitely think this is network congestion. My best speeds are late at night (usually about 2.5 down/1.5 up). Most of the time my upload stays about the same (between 900k and 1.5mb), but my download goes anywhere from 400k to 2.5mb..or lower
So 2.5 down is the fastest I can expect and the radio with the Revolution ROM is the Best one I could be using? I have heard 4G was capable of 6mbps,No..Anyone?? Is it gonna get better in phases,anyone know the truth?Vegas

4g?

So last night I was showing a buddy some stuff on my phone and I decided to run a speed test from the speed test app. I hit the button and the tiny little needle instantly jumps to 5 mbps and moves slightly higher to 5.15 mbps. Then my upload speed jumps to 2.5 and stays there. Why the sudden increase of speeds around my area? I generally get 1.5 download and .35 upload. This was all through my Inspire 4g rooted with Revolution 2.3.2 ROM and updated radio.
I will also add that I live in an area that has recently just got 3g as well. These are nearly as fast as my home internet, lol.
Move on nothing to see here

You're lucky, thats why lol
The other day, mine jumped from ~1.8 down and .80 up, to 3.8 down and 1.2 up. Seems as if at&t is up to something. Some people say that by the 31st of this month, most of the backhaul enhancement will be done.

Perfect Storm and 1.9 Kernal

Hi all
Sorry for posting here but I do not have more then 10 posts.
I am rooted. Running Perfect Storm Rom with the 1.9 Kernal.
Before, When I just had the Perfect Storm rom and the stock kernal....I ran a speedtest. I was getting around 20 mps down and around 35-40 up...AWESOME SPEED
after I loaded the 1.9 in my download speed is fine...but my upload speed is ONLY 8 up
Is there something I am missing? What can I check or do to bring back my upload speed.
Thanks in advance
the insane up is a glitch in the speedtest app because the buffer on the tb is bigger then the file it is uploading, in reality it is about 2-6
Al I know..when I was stock with just the Perfect Storm Rom...I was getting uploads of 35-40 now I am getting 5-8....
so not sure what is going on......
Read the reply.
The Thunderbolt has 768 megabytes of Ram. Most phones dont ahve this much and it causes a glitch in teh app you are doing the test from. If youw ant to compare it, turn off the Mobile option in the browser and use speedtest.net the site, not teh app. Your upload should enver be higher than your download. And who teh hell needs 40 megs up on their phone?
Listen...I read the reply...I just went on Speakeasy...the site not the app.....
only getting 1.5 uop....
If I restore Perfect Storm with the stock kernel....I would get 30-40 up....that is all I am saying!!!!!!!!!
and listen
the 30-40 is not the actual speeds that you were getting, your dl speed should be 5-10x higher than your upload
when you were getting 30-40 you were either using the app or the mobile website. and now either you are using the full website or somehow the rom fixed the issue
YOU HAVE NEVER HAD OVER 10MBS UP EVER

Gingerbread Speed Issues / Results

I have been back on GingerREMIX for about the last week and have noticed an issue with speeds over 3G / 4G / WIFI. I listen to Tune-In just about 24/7 and with BAMF 1.6.3 (Froyo), it never buffered. It seems with the Gingerbread leak that we have, it buffers over 3G, 4G and WIFI every 20 minutes or so.
So I have put together a little test sample of data speeds over 3G and 4G (I am working on WIFI results as well). The tests were performed on two different days at roughly the same time as well as in the same location to try to capture a fair sample. I will also note that absolutely no apps except for the speed test app were installed over the base ROM when testing.
I uploaded all of my results to google docs to make it easy for everyone to see.
https://spreadsheets.google.com/spr...QjR5ODNNWkluaXJOenc&hl=en_US&authkey=CNHdsMQE
Just something to think about before making the leap to alpha GB.
Disclaimer: In no way does this reflect on the quality of the BAMF ROM(s) as I have experienced the same type of issues on other GB based ROMs. It more or less comes down to the alpha build of GB that we have.
Interesting. Thanks for the "side-by-side" comparison.
Please don't tell me you used speedtest.net mobile app to get these results.
If you did, you should read the other 100 topics about Speedtest app not working on GB, you will in fact get normal speeds with GB just need to use a different speed test.
I really think that the leaked radio has more issues than just the possible bricking. When on CM7 GB, I get normal download speeds in the 12-20 mbps range, same with any froyo rom, however, when on any of the roms that need the leaked GB radio to work, I get horrible speeds. Netbook tethered to phone, Pandora/slacker streaming, YouTube streaming both normal and HQ videos. There is a definite and significant drop in download speeds.

Interesting, just when I used the leaked GB radio on Das BAMF everything ran fine with plenty of speed. Speedtest (Not the app) showed normal speeds and I never had a problem with downloading/streaming anything even the MR1 PG05IMG.zip to send me back to froyo downloaded in a minute or two (400mb file).
Also, Pandora didn't work on GB so I don't know where you got that from.
The 1.5.6 version of Pandora ran well, I couldn't get 1.5.7 to work though.

your speed is based on your carrier and location. simms22 posted a couple of lines you can add onto your build.prop (root needed) to improve speeds
use search to find it. it was in the cm7 alpha nightly thread
