Why is my data slow in a good coverage area? - General Questions and Answers

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?

I know that lol but when I ran a speedtest I got 0.21 mbps I think 3g speed is faster then that lol

try move around when you using the data.
sometime .it's about how many people using base station in same time.

Wonder if it's just my Vivid, but I can't seem to get more then 35 down.
Can't want to get my Skyrocket.... LTE speeds will be better for sure.
This is about the best I've seen in the Chicago market. Not sure why I'm not getting 40s and 50s like some markets (Dallas). Maybe there are more users here and the network is a little more strained.
but still 29 is no slouch....that's faster than my home network.
i was happy when i saw this....
What's with the high pings?

Even though San Diego area is not officially announced, seems AT&T is getting ready because I am seeing some LTE.

Can someone share the above modem. and if you have tested how is it?

Just flashed it. So far data speeds have been the same as kk3 for me. Haven't tested wifi yet.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
Speeds seem to be the same as KK3 but connectivity seems to have gotten better. I live in a 17 story concrete dorm surrounded by other 17 story concrete dorms surrounded by woods in Southern Illinois and I'm getting roughly 1 mb/s download speeds. I cant wait to get back to Chicago to really test this.
Actually my speeds are way faster....all around...4 to 7 down and 1 to 1.5 up....

I get horrible speeds unless I'm on wifi like 1-1.5 up another the same down

Are you referring to the 1-1.5mb/s?

Art throttled HSPA speeds

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?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App
What does your icon on status bar say?? And most likely it will be hspa+.

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.

Anyone in Lafayette, Indiana?

On lte I only get about 15 mbps down (with full bars) , anyone else get higher?
I've recorded higher in other markets but that was before I flashed this newest update to sean's rom.

You tried other radios? You test during peak hours?

Unfortunately I was only there for the afternoon...When I go back in the fall I will have to mess around
And test the different radios.
Thanks for the feedback

i'm a few hours away from there. I wouldn't expect it to get much "faster". the smaller LTE markets don't seem to have quite the BW as the larger ones. Indianapolis usually gives me well over 20/25.
Sounds good then, thanks.
I suppose slow LTE is better then none at all, haha

Can you tell practically between 15 or 25 mbps ??
I'm in Indy with up to 33mb

Is this normal?

I ran a speed test and got these results. I'm wondering if this is normal because this is my average speed here.

I can't read kbps but that speed is for your data not benchmarks on performance. Overclocking will do nothing to that.

Yes that's very good. That's about a perfect 5 bar connection

Okay, cool. Thanks.
The reason why I asked is because I watched a review of a Galaxy S4 that was downloading at like 17,xxx kbps.
So I was just like... wtf.

Well there's a difference between Kbps and kbps. Lowercase 'k' means kilobits per second, upper case 'K' means kilobytes. And there are 8 bits in a byte
