I may have hspa+

I just ran 10+ speed tests all over my area, which is Athens Georgia, and am consistently getting 5mbps down and 2 up. I did however just flash leedroid so it may be rom related but I have never seen anything over 3 mbps, so my question is, has anyone else seen an increase in speed recently? If so where are you located?

I was getting about 2.5mbps on stock optomized, flashed MIUI and now im getting about 3.5, so it could be the difference in roms...
But 5mbps is pretty good either way.
Im in Top City Kansas though, where is your location?

So I've figured out that there is HSPA+ in San Francisco after all. I bought one of the AT&T Shockwave (Sierra Wireless USB 308), and rather than installing AT&TConnect, I got the Generic Non Branded Sierra Wireless Air Card Watcher, which diagnoses the signals available. It shows here in San Francisco I'm getting HSPA+... still only actually seeing 4.1mbps down, and 1.4mbps up, but hey, at least the technology is confirmed deployed, so once backhaul is running it'll work

I'm in Norcross right now and can't get anything above 2Mb down. I live north of here in Flowery Branch and I've never gotten over 3Mb on my Inspire. I did hit over 5Mb a few times on my Captivate though. But that was months ago. I don't think there is "4G" service in this area yet.

Ya I am getting between 3 and 5 now its pretty sporadic so I bet it just when the network is not too jammed up I am just getting good 3g. So sad.

I don't think you have it. AT&T said around 6MBPS is considered HSPA+. Do you have a 3G phone with you that you can compare it to. If they get the same speed its not hspa+ once our inspires start getting speeds faster than 3G phones then we can call it 4G

HSPA+ is a technology, not a speed. You can have 0.00001 mbps on HSPA+ ... lol.
Just because they deploy the technology doesn't mean they increase the backhaul to make use of it.

what is this BS about backhaul?
are you saying current 3G backhaul cant pump data faster than 4mb?
on att map, it shows 4G coverage is available in bayarea CA, but it doesnt matter how late at night or i'm the only one connected to tower, i never get speed over 4mb!

That's the whole issue... both 3G and 4G can handle up to 7mbps just fine, so everyone focusing on getting the 4G indicator should really be focusing on the actual speed ... I'd love to get 4mb on my phone ... I couldn't care less if it says 3 or 4G lol

A fellow Athenian here. I just did a couple of tests getting around 4200 kbps down and only 500 kbps up. I have been getting around 2500 down and 1000 up (I am using rooted stock ROM with LeeDroid's kernel).

Stock ROM is capped in the actual firmware, so no inspire will ever be fixed without a firmware update. It doesn't matter what ATT does to the network, The phone is where the cap is.

Read the link in the post.above.yours, that is from HTC not ATT.

4 mbs isn't much of "4G" speeds as my captivate gets 5 down and 3 up almost all the time where I live and it can't do "4G" just 3G. So, while you may have 4G coverage, it's about the same speeds as a good 3G connection.

if you were getting HSPA+ you would be able to hit around 14.4Mbps down with full signal.
well, maybe that is the max speed for HSPA

not sure what the spec sheet there is referring to.

Check out this baby. I'm rooted, TPC ROM v2. I did modify my build.prop. Is this H+? This is progress though.

Throttled? Nothing fixes it? Try this

Ok...there are a number of us that no matter what we try we can not seem to get around the ATT throttle.
I just stumbled on this set up and it works for me, when nothing previously did.
CN's Use the telus Kj3 radio and the APN settings opencipher posted,select the new apn and then reset the data connection.
First off, you must be rooted.
In my case I am using a Tmobile Rom(DaBomb by TricH), with dag's .3 kernel
So far it is reported this does not work with:
SkyICS
I tested and it does work for me with
Quikwiz
DaBomb
Juggernaut 5.0
Test included
Darkside wipe
Flashed rom
Flashed Kernel
Installed Titsnium b/u
Restored Apn back up and restore
Restored speedtest app
Restored my apn settings that work (listed below)
Changed to Hspa apn
Speedtest showing great speeds
Changed to pta apn
Speedtest confirming throttle
download and flash this telus radio with CWM (thanks Mr X.. and cheyenne, and kr3w1337)
Add the following APN, no need to delete PTA, just add this APN (thanks opencipher)
The APN settings are:
Name: HSPA+ ATT
APN: Phone
APN Type: Internet
inbound MMS works for me with no other changes
outbound will require the following APN be added
Name: ATT WAP
APN: wap.cingular
proxy: wireless.cingular.com
mms proxy: wireless.cingular.com
mms port: 80
mcc: 310
mnc: 410
apn type: mms
NOW go through the mobile settings to "Network Mode" and go through the motions like you are going to change it. (it won't actually change, it just resets the data connection) Click ok when you get the unable to change message.
Update the thread if this works..
Please use this template.
ROM: current rom, tmo or att
Worked: y or n
screen shots of speeds would be great, as this is a dual channel HSPA radio.
I am going to come back and clean this up in a bit, and add ALL known working methods to this one thread as it seems one method works for some and another combo works for others.
I have verified...I can switch back and forth...PTA is still throttled, the other is not.
Here is the link to the stock radios so one can flash back when billing cycle restarts. Thanks TPC for this.

[Q] Canadian Users -- What Radio/Modems work the best for you!?

Hello fellow Canadians!
I just wanted to collect some information on what Radios/Modems you are using on your Galaxy S2 LTE. The reason is because I am using the UCLF6 Radio and I am having some performance issues on LTE and tethering on LTE so I wanted to know what radios are working for you. This is my current set up. Thanks you for your help!
ROM: Official CM 10.0 Stable
Radio: UCLF6
Carrier: Rogers
Happy Holidays!

Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda premium

Canada is pretty big I would recommend narrow it down a little as modems performance for me vary from west side to north east on the island I live (and thats just a 2-3 hour drive) I can't imagine the difference in the whole Canada.

Try UCLI3, it might work better for you. Really though, there isn't much harm in trying them, since switching is pretty painless.

What network are you using UCLI3 on? I just switched from Rogers to Telus and I'm wondering if I should flash a different radio, but I can't seem to locate a Telus radio for JB/CM10. I've found a few links but they're all dead, including the TeamChopsticks one.

I'm having great results with RUXLF3 here in London. I get around 30-36 mbps download and 10-12 upload depending on where in the city I am.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2

I'm running stock Rogers ICS RUXLF3. Is there really any performance improvements by using any of the other radios? I noticed some people mentioning that the AT&T or Bell radios worked on Rogers - what is the purpose behind flashing another carrier's radio, is there actually an improvement?

I've switched from UCLF6 to UCLI3 but I still get horrible battery performance while in LTE...I've been using CpuSpy to check if the phone is going to deep sleep when not being used, and it is. I get 15-20% drop in battery within 2 hours when phone has an LTE signal. I live in the GTA in Ontario, I get full LTE signal so the phone shouldn't be boosting the amplifier to get a better signal.

I have the AT&T version of the S2 but I am presently in Ghana West Africa and will be here for at least another 6 months...in some places there is 4G I would love to know more about adjusting my radio/ modem...any advice?.....I am using Vodafone as my carrier I am running stock everything until I learn more about ICS or Jellybean

Hi, sorry I didn't notice your question until today. I believe when I posted that I was still running cm9.1. Since that I've been trying a few different jellybean Roms, since learning that they are compatible work ics radios.
They seemed ok at first. On RUXLF3 I've tried liquid smooth rc9 and sky jellybean. They both seemed to work ok at first. Great speed on the data. After a while I kept having no call audio and sometimes missing calls. Trying out UCLI3 on cm10. The data seems way slower, but if it's more reliable that's more important to me.
What is anyone else finding? It may have nothing to do with the radio too, I'm trying to figure it out.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2

I have been using the latest UCLK4 since yesterday and so far it seems a bit better, especially signal strength. I did some speed tests but they were inconclusive.

That's pretty awesome! Now how about for actual phone calling? Do you find it pretty reliable? On UCLI3 with Cm10 I'm only getting about 10 mbps download, but the phoning is working reliably. I work in deliveries, so I'm on the phone probably 20-30 times a day, I was having trouble actually making or receiving calls with sporadically on RUXLF3 with two different Roms, so I'm inclined to think the radio may be the cause. It would connect the call, but just have silence on both ends.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2

I havent had any complaints so far. This radio just came out a few days ago so I havent had many calls.
Ive probably made 5 or 6 calls at about 10 mins each and theyve all been good.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2

That sounds pretty good. Any chance after a week or so you'd be up for updating how it's working for you? I've just flashed so many Roms and radios in the past week. Flashing restores on the way to a delivery because my phone would stop working and I couldn't call for my next orders, haha. It wasn't fun.
I'm a little hesitant now that something is working, to put another one on it right away, unless people are finding it pretty stable for a little while. Are you up for doing that? Please and thanks.

the speed was awesome but the problem i had appears to be caused by this radio

seems it's not just isolated to me because i saw someone else posted they had the exact same problem happen in the leaked jb thread.

Will the Skyrocket on T-Mobile be able to use their LTE network?

Just as the title says...will my skyrocket using a T-Mobile radio get LTE on T-Mobile's network? In case you don't already know they just fired their LTE network today and I'm really wanting to see if it will benefit us. Thanks!
Sent from my Skyrocket using XDA Premium

The only answer I can come up with is maybe.
T-mo is running LTE band 4 (1700MHz), which the Skyrocket is capable of, but who knows if it will actually work.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2

I swear its capable of it, but only in AWS. The only LTE frequency it supports as far as I know is 700

Alittle while back, someone posted a screenshot of an AT&T Note 1 getting LTE on T-Mobile. So, in theory, it should work. But, I am yet to see word from anyone since w/ an AWS LTE radio device originally running on AT&T getting it to work on T-Mo's LTE. I'm in SF, but maybe the next time I visit San Jose, I'll flash an AT&T radio, or perhaps the 757m radio from Bell, and see what happens.

I think it should work because as far as I know here in Canada providers use 1700 for LTE, I don't think 700 is available for use yet up here. Rogers S2 LTE works on 1700 for LTE. To make it work you would probably just have to use the default AT&T radio or possibly load the Rogers radio, The only issue you will have is traveling to areas that use 1700 AWS for 3G & don't have LTE yet, you will be stuck in 2G.

Any luck?? I tried flashing the 757m radio but I had issues with data connection afterwards.... I have T-Mobile late now in my area and I would really like to get it on my skyrocket.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

I think if you're using a skyrocket it would make more sense to use a skyrocket i727 native radio file like the one rogers has UXUMA7 and then find T-Mobile lte enabled APN information and just create a new APN for T-Mobile LTE.

Actually I tried exactly that radio and had same issues... I believe that my issues actually may be related to the fact that the T-Mobile radio I flashed includes ril files and the others do not...
By the way why would flashing a native radio make more sense than a radio that enables all bands that our hardware is capable of??

Because it's a radio developed specifically with our phone in mind, optimizing it's performance, minimizing risks for failure etc. On the other hand i would also like all the bands to be enabled.

T-Mobile Roms for ATT Skyrocket?
Rehab4Life said:
Just as the title says...will my skyrocket using a T-Mobile radio get LTE on T-Mobile's network? In case you don't already know they just fired their LTE network today and I'm really wanting to see if it will benefit us. Thanks!

I heard of people using T-Mobile ROMs on their ATT skyrocket. I was trying to figure out the procedure for doing that. I have pretty much used every ROM there is for skyrocket and I would like to try something I haven't already. Do you just flash it normally? Or is there something extra you have to flash? Like a modem/radio? Any help or info would be greatly appreciated.

This app allows you to easily change your PRL on the Sprint Galaxy Note III (should work on the S4 as well) WITHOUT root! It will call Samsung's hidden menu with the press of a button - no more having to type out things manually using other apps!
This might work on other Samsung devices on various carriers, try at your own risk! If it does work, please contact me and let me know what other devices this works with.
If you like this app, please consider the donate version! I will be bringing some cool features to the donate version!

Posted this here because this thread worked for the Sprint Note 3's, it should work here as well. Please let me know either way how it goes! And if you test this on any other CDMA Samsung phones, please let me know your results

Just a reminder, everyone - you must be on a TouchWiz ROM! Stock will definitely work, can't promise that a custom ROM didn't remove the app that PRL Helper needs to open. AOSP ROMs (CyanogenMod, AOKP, etc) will NOT work!

I'm probably done with ROMs in the traditional sense. I really want to focus on the Xposed Framework, truly amazing what they've done with that. MUCH easier to implement updates and cool features, no need to redo all of your apk mods when a new base comes out. In the future, you'll see me put out ROMs with an Xposed module built-in that'll only run on my ROMs

How do I backup my current 2011 PRL by using this app?

Could this be used to change to a different carriers PRL? I remember back when I had my HTC Evo I could change carrier towers depending on what was around my area.

there are prls out there that force verizon. i use 1337.rpl . (its in these forums somewhere if you search) whenever i am in a sprint dead zone and am able to pick up verizon 3g

Know of any that force 4G?
Thank you for your help

None that I know of. I would be surprised that there ever is one until maybe some day when 4G is is the slower service that 3G is today. I can not imagine the carriers will be willing to sell as roaming to other carriers.

They sell 4G to other carrier as service, so while it may not be a verizon prl update it could be out there.
WIll update this when/if I find something

Sprint and Verizon do not use the same bands for 4G so you won't be able to pick up LTE just 3G on Verizon.

Will PRL helper work if I can't update my prl via the system update route?
Thanks
