At&t has something in this phone!

Hi it looks like At&t installed something in the phone that checks what you download on thair network. It doesn't let downloading torrent with adownloader. This **** is going back to At&t.

Even if that is the case, which I SERIOUSLY doubt, it will only be a short matter of time until we can remove/deter it.

You also need to get a thicker tin foil hat

I think he's right. At&t install that stupid Carrier IQ crap. My data has been on and off is like I can't visit certain web sites. Some load some don't. What's going on? BTW that carrier iq has been monitoring my network state so far nothing else. I will take a look at the service log soon.

I think it's network related. They working fine now. But that Carrier IQ is there on our phone. If you don't know what it is Google it.

And this is not on the OGSII?
How do you check?

Can Carrier IQ be removed with a DEV ROM?

I do agree with this.
Try going to www.justin.tv over 3G/H+ and see if it works for you guys. On mine, it doesn't.
Then if I try going to it over WiFi it works flawlessly.
Any ideas/tips to fix this?

What else AT&T want to do with our privacy or our rights to do whatever we want with our phones!!!???
It is true, mine have the same 400 error bad request at 4G but no on WiFi

yes there is a fix.
Add a NEW APN for the old HSPA+ ; the 'phone' apn
the new LTE's APN (pta) is restricted on the AT&T's end..
it has nothing to do with the phone

This is in my account. I had the personal smartphone unlimited when I got the Skyrocket they change it to this crap
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App

that is the LTE Personal unlimited plan. The grandfathered.
tell me from the list of LTE plan you rather have?

i agree. I'm not too sure what the problem is but it seems to filter sites even when i'm tethering (i'm grandfathered).
The issue is fixed when i hop on MIT's vpn (which encrypts all connections).
Not happy about this

I'm curious why would you even want to use this phone on ATT? Barring some kind of weird fluke like you bought it from somewhere having a buy one get one free
sale.....
And then there is the obvious sarcastic reply, that it would be the same slow as molasses speed that all phones on AT&T's network have.

After that spree, I had to start dodging the tax-man, so I'm laying low for a while!

Phone is pentaband just like the Galaxy Nexus...speeds should be fine. ATT users and T-Mobile users alike have been using I727s and T989s on either network getting great speeds with the exception of the I727 having LTE capability
OP is simply asking for users to comment on their speeds

Mobilecityonline is selling them unlocked(Screenshot in this thread). I also called their customer service and I called T-Mobile both reps told me the phone supports the 3G spectrum in AT&T when unlocked.

Found it (I think),
http://newsroom.t-mobile.com/files/PDF-UQXMBGKK1DV0EAZS.pdf
That lists it as quad-band for UMTS, bands I, II, IV, and V. And according to AT&T's wiki page, AT&T does bands II and V, so it should work on AT&T. T-Mo US seems to be bands I and IV.
Yay

Skyrocket on Straight Talk unlimited BYOD sim program discussion thread...

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

I just switched from at&t to Straight Talk $45 per month unlimited plan on the sim card BYOP program.
Liking it so far and no complaints as of yet... also I can report speeds of about 7Mbps downloads and almost 2Mbps.
I will be reporting back soon with my experiences. If you are on straight talk let me know how you like it.
Thanks!!

I'm testing Straight Talk TMO SIM and just a TMO SIM in a Skyrocket. I get similar results with both. I'm running CM9 nightlies for the Skyrocket with the T989 LE1 radio. It's so much less money than my old Verizon service.

I will post the apn settings... The trick is to leave proxy blank in case they want to throttle you. So far it works!

How much data you guys use per month??

If I input all the apn settings according to the st website but leave proxy blank I won't get throttled?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

You can try doing that... im doing the same thing, ST is not throttling at the moment if you do is by att it T-Mobile... once those big two inform ST of your excessive data usage during a 30 day cycle you will get a warning either by phone or text on the second time your account will be permanently suspended... and you will lose your number and will have to buy a new sum with different number...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

Finally got my ST sim card installed and activated, did a few speed tests and the fastest I've gotten is 3.3 down and just under 1 up, slow. It could be my area though. In the upper left hand corner of the screen it says "Home".

HOME is like "at&t powered network" or " ST SIM working on at&t towers" ...
I am geting anything between 1-7 mbps DL and .5-2.5 UL

I have been on ST for AT&T for 25 days now. I know exactly how many because I've already used 2.49 GB this month and I'm worried I'll get kicked. I can say that the service is good, and I love the freedom of not being tied to a contract (and I'm paying less than a lot of postpaid wireless subscribers to boot).
I was on Tmobile's $30 5 gig walmart plan but I was not able to get the Tmobile radios working on the i727 properly. I'm using the UCLF5 radio now for AT&T and I generally get between 2 and 4 mbit down.

been on straight talk for about a year now, before they offered BYOD, had to buy a phone and pull the sim out. i regularly do about 1.5-3.0 gig a month and have never received any type of notification or ever been throttled.
Never put in the proxy, no need to.
Here was a post i did with my current settings on sky ice 4.2f3

Google voice & straight talk & att mvno
I recently been trying out different att MVNO's. I tried used H20 Wireless and un-successfully never got conditional call forwarding to work. I read different articles and came to the conclusion that I would never get conditional call forwarding to work on any prepaid. However I wanted to try a different one and see. I said Straight Talk is cheaper so what the hell. I tried and it works perfectly. I just thought I would pass that along. Also running stock and latest build UCLF6.

Anyone on Straight Talk having issues with "Speed Test" and just that Apk download? I get between .5 - 2 m upload. Download will either say network issues or get 9 k.
Fix: I got everything to work by removing the proxy.mvno.tracfone.com

My att bill is due tomorrow and its like 500. Its in my wife's name and we just seperated. I got my SR out right off contract so I think I'm going to get byop straightalk.
I just go to Walmart and buy the sim? 45 a month sounds like a winner to me.
Didn't know what I was going to do until I seen this thread. Now I have an option. Thanks.

You have to order the sim from straight talk website....once u do that u can buy the refill cards from wal mart...

It's not actually unlimited.
I used to be on GG myself and everything was going great. Then I started getting my internet cut off because I was using too much internet. How can one use too much of unlimited? I literally ended up getting cut of twice in one week for using too much and all I was doing was streaming through Netflix.
Here's a screenshot of the message I sent to one of their agents about the situation.

I am currently on 500mb data, having to cut myself short as I'm averaging 3x that in a month. I think the most I'll use is about 3 gig, mainly Rom downloads. Won't be using Netflix or streaming media, but still like access to my files at home whilst I'm out, which is why I was looking at giffgaff.

With that usage, you should be fine with giffgaff then. I was clocking about a gig a day and they said that was too much lol.

Giffgaff offer very good options in the UK, just need to be careful to make sure you always have a goodybag including data otherwise your credit disappears rapidly. Even better now the goodybags can auto renew.

Look at OP. He just asked about our carrier and hasn't posted since. He never wanted to discuss about our carriers either, he simply wanted to know WHAT carrier we were on. The replies started the conversation on what carriers were good.
Since I posted second, all I knew about this thread was that some weirdo with barely any posts just wanted to know what carrier other people were using. He never posted his carrier either, usually you would at least say "to start, I am on AT&T" or other carrier.

There is no "best" deal, but a popular one I know of and use is with T-Mobile, a non-contract $30 a month plan with unlimited data(first 5gb at 4g speed) unlimited texting and 100 talking minutes. I rooted my phone and can now tether without the fee and I use an app to make free phone calls. 5gb of data is a lot for phone usage, even if you tether it should last you a month. If you're looking for a home internet service though you should still order wifi because 4g speed isn't great on laptops.

i have sprint.. been with them almost 4 years.. i love them.. well service sucked for a while but now i get great 4g lte in my state so im happy.. i get unlimited talk.. text.. data.. and use wifi tether all the time with no issues.. i would hate to have a limit on data..
