Speedtest Results - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

So I am running the bionix rom feom team whiskey and my speedtest results are 6.65 down and 1.99 up.
Shouldnt they be almost double that?

The rom has nothing to do with your data speeds.

But shouldnt they be higher anyways?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App

data speeds depend on your coverage area. So no.

So running 4g shoukd be higher anyways tho right?

6.65 mbps download isn't 4G?
no way.

Try flasing different modems to see if your speeds change. Always check mounts in cwm before doing that and fix permissions after the flash Just to be safe.

Take a trip over to the modem thread and they can set you straight in captivate modems.

Which baseband rogers or att?

So I'm wondering which baseband I should have? I have the rogers, but should I go back to the att? Would It make a difference?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using XDA Premium App
Try both and stick with whichever gives you better performance. Each person will have a different experience with each one depending on where they live
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using XDA Premium App
Yup. You just have to try it out. I live in NJ and use att just for your information
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using XDA App
I have had great signal and internet on both...but rogers seemed to give me better battery life for some reason...still testing this...no actual dat/proof other than "feel"
Okay great. Now can anyone help me locate the two along with instructions lol. It would he very.helpful.

Over clocking problem

Whenever I over clock my phone always vibrates then crashes and I have to do a battery pull. What's the problem

You may be using the wrong values. or over clocking too high. Not all phones can handle the same thing.

For a few weeks I was overclocked to 1.2 and it was working fine then it started to crash so I lowered it to 1.1 and it would crash within an hour

Are you sure it is stable? What rom are you on?

That's why I haven't been over clocking but I liked how fast it was
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
are you sure the values are correct? hmm. are you on the bali kernel? if you are not, oc wont work 100% at higher values
I think I'm on the stock kernel but I could be wrong. I've been using tegrak over clock so that should set the correct values right??
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
I would flash the bali kernel if you want to over clock. I have bali 3.3uv. I'm not saying it can't be oced with stock, but bali has its improvements. the only thing is wifi calling cannot be used properly.
tegrak will set the values it knows. I would follow dsexton's guide on how to oc. bible thread --1.6 oc stable link.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App
seems funny that the phone would crash at 1.1. On ICBINB + Bali 3.3 I could get 1.4 stable. Tonite I successfully got the KH2 gb build installed with ext4 enabled and OC is much more stable and the phone is much faster even with no OC at all. I think maybe KH2 has fixed problems with earlier GB builds or maybe I finally got it right.
I don't understand why the over clocking is all of sudden crashing my phone
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
did you ever get bali?
Something is wrong with my computer I'm gonna flash it as soon as its fixed

Is there a way I could download and flash from my phone
Sent from my galaxy s 4g using XDA app
Yes, bali is also cwm flashable.

Thanks I'm gonna have to try that. But what's cwm I'm still new to flashing stuff

Amaze 4G Radio?

Will the amaze 4g's radio work on the skyrocket? The uclac 4 radio is kind of misleading... but I've heard he amaze 4gs radio is pretty accurate. I've tried the uclac 5 but it wouldn't playback audio

I'm using the nexus mod ROM on ICS.
Never flash a galaxy s ii ROM. However, the Tmobile galaxy s ii and our phone are so similar we can flash stuff between (that blaze 4g flash was meant for the t mobile phone).
I'm not sure about LTE. I'm betting it does work, you'll just have to flash and see. The first boot will take a very long time. I'm running this flash, I can confirm it won't brick. But I would still suggest making a nandroid backup.

Hey, my lte isn't working... The only APN that works at all is "ATT PHONE" even Odin flash to stock didn't work.

I'm sorry for the confusion. I have tried all of the ROMs, and none were connecting to lte, I eventually took it to an AT&T store... I had a 3g only plan from my iPhone. :banghead:
They fixed it. Now I get lte speeds.
