Do you mean kilobyte or kilobit? Here in south florida I'd be lucky to get 120KBs, usually its 50 and below.
Stock rom and kernal just rooted..I'm getting 0.10 mbps average download and 0.30 mbps upload (sometimes if lucky) ..I'm in sothern California ..

If you think you're handy try updating the PRL.
I have tried but my computer won't show up in the com port in device manager

Rooting my phone and uninstalling the virgin bloatware fixed my 3g speeds.

So which apps did you remove and what improved your 3g speed or the 3g drop to 1x?

Its a prepaid carrier you just have to deal with it, or do you want a $100 phone bill?

Just put CM7 on your phone, it comes with the sprint prl which you have sprint speed.

If she's with T-Mobile she might have 4g, well for that price.

Ok one wuestion though, i installed cm7 and under mobile network settings theres a few more things like international data roaming, national data roaming, and system select, should i check any of them, or change the select system to automatic, affiliated networks, or just leave it at home??

If you are talking about the media net

I'm on the $15 unlimited plan since I have not added unlimited messing.

Also make sure you use the wap.cingular apn if you are having data issues. Attached is my apn setting for the media net plan.

Yes I get 3g, hspa+ speeds with no issues. In Seattle I get average download speeds arnd 2MBps since att network is not great where I stay. But I have hit around 5Mbps in Chicago airport while traveling.
If you want there is a thread in sgs2 forums about people's experience on media net plans and their speeds. For me I didn't see any speed difference between the media net plan and the att 4g plan speeds. So i'm happily using the one which costs less and get unlimited data in the process

Just found this thread. It's helpful in my search.
FWIW, I USB tethered my Nokia 6700 Classic (which I didn't even know was capable of HSDPA until it launched). Signal used to be really good for it, but it started dropping like crazy. Thought it was the device, so I replaced it with another... same signal issues.
Anyway, I think I'm the reason why the signal is all crappy. In April, 2011, I did 800GB of data on my $20 Media Max unlimited data plan. AT&T never caught me. Until that month, I was doing between 10GB and 30GB each month.
Now, I'm looking for an affordable smartphone that is very much NON-AT&T so that I can continue to bend the rules and keep getting high speed internet.
Hey yall..I need some opinions since im leaving USA and going bk to mexico I wanna know whats the best phone that at&t got since I cant take my galaxy s 4g ...
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Your best bet would be to look at the AT&T website and check out reviews for the phones that may interest you on YouTube.
Another solution would be to unlock your SGS4G so you can use it on AT&T.

Aside from the obvious...dual processor etc...there are a couple of notable down grades in the sgs2 from sgs4g that will effect you daily. The main difference is the drop in audio quality, Samsung went cheap with the DAC's...no more Wolfson, some cheap Yamaha instead. Big turn off for me as my phone doubles as my mp3 player. I also read multiple online reviews that said the sgs2 eats battery like no phone before it. I'm not knocking it, but trading off audio quality and battery life for higher benchmark scores isn't for me. I'd unlock your sgs4g and get an AT&T Sim IMO..

Galaxy s 2. Infuse in the exact same thing as our phone, just a bigger screen and better camera. At least the galaxy s 2 is sorta an upgrade.

I'm in mexico at the moment. Don't bring your sgs4g. All carriers here use the same freq bands for 3g. They use 850 for 3G and 1900 for gsm, so you would get only 2g (
Edge).
Based on that info, look for a phone that will work well here.
Sent from my SGS4G using xda forum app
SGS4G can use the following Band (frequency):
* 850 MHz;900 MHz;1800 MHz;1900 MHz;UMTS: Band I (2100);UMTS: Band IV (1700/2100)

is your phone unlocked? Or are u on tmobile and just not getting 3g because thats kinda expected. I know the vibrant can do att 3g but im not sure on the GS4G
I'm not from the US. I just bought the phone there. I live in Venezuela and over there I have 3g just fine. I came to mexico to work, and bought a Sim card here, from one of the local carriers.
However, all of them use the same band for 3g which is 850. The sgs4g can only get hsdpa (3g) on 1900, 1700 and 2100 mhz.
If you don't mind (you should) using only edge, then bring it with
you, otherwise get another phone.

Did you possibly go over your data plan limit?
Or running with a Sim from service that cant use the 4g service native to the phone?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
I was told never to try to go on 4g. Um ... I don't think its possible for me to even download anything over at the speeds that I get right now. It goes off and on. It just sets really annoying. I didn't do the flashing or anything. I even try to manually to stay on "GSM/cdma auto prl " and choosing the radioband to "USA "
