Just got my skyrocket and was throttled 3 says after purchase at 2 gigs. Did the apn trick and I'm now seeing speeds as high as 11megs down. Is this hspa or lte?

What does your icon on status bar say?? And most likely it will be hspa+.

I have personally seen as high as 12 mbps on hspa+ so 11 could be

GSM/HSPA. I'm just shocked because one time I had the Matrix and the highest I've ever gotten were 5megs on a lucky day. To get this high is crazy. I'm so ready to screw att lmao.

Hello everyone, I was wondering what are your speed on your 4G speed.
I just got my phone today and I love the phone but the speed on 4g is horrible.
Iam getting an average of 40-60kbs.
I use to own an hd2 running around and was getting 3-5mg.
sorry for the poor english.
Well I get great 3g that's labled 4g.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
If you're getting HSPA+ you should be getting 4G speeds, that's why they can sell it as 4G. Also their are other factors that affect data speeds. If you're getting an HSPA signal you will see a 3G icon
Well my area is not on tmo 4g map and my vibrant got only moderate 3g.
But this phone gets better reception than my vibe. So which knows
But it always says 4g.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
They vary. Notice the ping.
I'm usuall around 8 mbs in Baltimore and 4 mbs 10 miles north of Baltimore where I live. My ping is a lot better than my Vibrant. I am usually getting a ping less than 50. My upload is anywhere between 1 mbs and 4 mbs.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
mine is always shows 4g, and never yet got over 200kbs, and my g2 is getting average 2-3mg.
Ill bring it back for exchange,hope that solve the problem.
My typical speeds range from 3 to 10 mbps down on actual 4g, .5 to 2 mbps down on 2g. Near philadelphia. Full hspa+ tower .86 miles north of my work.

yeah that is what I am getting now...even though when I first got it I was hitting around 5-6 mbps... not sure what happened
I am in a 4G area btw
Is anyone in an area where t-mobile upgraded their network to HSPA+ 42? I live in such an area but am on Sprint but I'm considering switching to t-mobile.
Sprint's 4G here is a lot slower in most places than the theoretical maximums.
Considering most phones on the market can only do 7.2 or 14.4Mbps the so-called 42Mbps is marketing hyperbole. The G2X max speed is 21Mbps and you are never going to get top speed on any device due to OS overhead, etc.

Pretty sure the T-Mobile rocket USB modem does the 42. But in my findings you are lucky to ever get half of a theoritical speed and that's on any cell network.

double
well if it is doubled shouldnt are speeds double even on g2x
You don't even need 42mbps... Around 5-6mbps is great for streaming video!
I live in Dallas Texas we suppost to have the 42mbps
but my g2x sometimes when it wants to get 5mbps in downtown dallas where i live
and only one day i got 14mbps
and i called tmobile about my horrible speed they said i havent reached 2gb of data so they assume it has something to do with the tower i was using. ok so i go all around DFW
and i get same speed 2 or 3mbps
so i think is not the tower.
somebody told me that sometimes taking off the battery and wait 5 minutes straight the phone will reset and get rid of all data of towers and start again so i did that to see if my speed was any better and i had no luck so but hey with that horrible speed i can still stream and downloads roms very fast from my phone !!
I get 6-8mbps on "4g" and i'm not really in that big of a city (Virginia beach, VA)

The 42mbs is for the new phones, like the Samsung Hercules or the amaze. Lol they all have different hardware capabilities.

Lol... I know this! My comment was relevant to this being on the g2x which is a 21mbps capable phone and that even if you have a 42mbps device you will prob never see speed that high...
But thanks... Lol

Lol your probably right if you want speeds that high, then you'll probably have to be right next to the tower.

Are you in a 4G area? Tier one mentioned that the phones might be trying to access the down network and getting confused. In my case going to CDMA only does not help.

This makes some sense. The handoffs between LTE and CDMA create a different situation for CDMA in an LTE area and make it impossible to connect at all if the systems handling the handoffs are down. I wonder if anyone in a CDMA only area could report the situation they are in.
I am in Colorado. Tier one mentioned Texas is down.

[Q] data problems?
so just to be clear...its not just me who is having the no 4g, 3g or 1x problem today?
Got 4g and 3g here in Toledo Ohio. Actually pulling some pretty high numbers on speed test and my server is set to the closest one for best accuracy. Average is about 11 but now I'm seeing 16 and 19's.
It doesn't make any sense I see ppl who is in an area that has 1 bar of hspa+ and I get around 3 to a full bar but there download speed is usually 4 - 5 mbps when mine is under 1 mbps I saw threads how ppl using data tweaks in the build.prop well I tried it and it slowed it down even more any tips?
