Is it possible to edit the build.prop file like the on the Inspire 4G to achieve better speeds?
Lol this should be in general... And inspire? This is the infuse forums

I apologize if I put it in the wrong forum, but I didn't think that editing the build.prop file or regulating 4G speeds that AT&T hasn't "given" us access to yet was a general question.
Aside from that, is it possible?

So, you want to post in development? Ask yourself this:
Is what I am going to post a question?
If so, this is not the right place to post a new thread. Instead, use the SEARCH function to find a thread about your question. If that's not available, post your question in General.

Point taken.
Well no offense to anyone, but changing the build.prop of any phone to alter the dynamics of how to phone runs or behaves sounds like development to me...
Can it be done? Do you know how exactly it's done on the inspire?

Your missing what the dev section is for.
If someone had a custom Build.prop they wanted to share, that is a Dev post. Asking a question about development is not.
no, from what I've been tinkering with in the test settings (accessed with *#0011#) and pressing menu, back, selecting "network control", then "hspa cat control", I'm able to get better speeds on CAT 10 than CAT 14, but other's speeds may vary. (I know I'm a heavy user that uses over 15 to 20 GB per month too, so it may just be going through a CAT that I'm not throttled on too.... )
But with all above, I agree that this should be in General....
the inspire has hsupa disabled foe the att version with a line in build.prop. hsupa has been disabled on all att phone cept the iphone and the infuse. tere have been different meathods to disable it but is irrelevant because the infuse has it enabled. ther may be other settings to change but not to get even better speeds but I don't think it will be in build.prop or yield the same results.

wow i started messing with the diffrent CAT settings on my infuse and now i have gotten up to 5250 down on my speed test! before the most ive gotten was low 3000's. a friend of mine has a infuse 4g also but he has gotten up to 10,000 down! he usually averages 7-8k on speed tests. WHY????? he has had his phone since it came out i think.
Someone needs to build a CAT setting tester/optimizer!

So i just followed what you said and the first screen that comes up, the general service mode screen says im running on 3g even though up in my task bar it shows the H+ symbol. Has my infuse been lying to me this whole time?

No, AT&T has. HSPA+ is still 3G, even though AT&T calls it 4g. They may re-brand all the user-facing stuff to say 4G, but the phone's technical information that you aren't supposed to see will refer to it by its technical term, 3G.
if its not LTE , its not 4g Sorry to burst your bubble. I truely miss Tmobile when it comes to data. I would get around 6megs down all the time on "3g". I dont even get 3 most times with at&t and the upload is such horrible ****.

LTE isn't 4G either, if you want to lump HSPA+ into ' it's not 4G' category. LTE currently offers nothing remotely close to the original ITU specs.

I typically get 3-4 Mbps at work/home. Last week I was about 4 miles away, got 8.9Mbps. Another day I was about 5 miles further, got 5.5 Mbps. Depends on which tower you're on.
Yeah, I've noticed that too. I switched the CAT and got improvement at my office... Now just to check at home.
I almost feel like my Captivate was faster somehow....

Okay so they are planning on slowing you down once you reach a certain limit they set with their biggest package 4GB I would guess its around that point, how are they going to trottle everyone's speed down to a crawl? Is it going to be like they trottled everyone's speed up in the past VIA software updates? Anyway just curious what you all think and hopefully there's away to not be stuck in a rut on this one, I do a lot of streaming, and multiplayer gaming on my phone...

I have the 30 dollar unlimited plan and i'm using 5-6GB a month and i seem to be fine. But i cant imagine what other people are using.
It's not in effect yet, I do between 6 and 16 depending on if I'm downloading new roms and stuff too, but its suppose to be effective soon.

According to the post on ATT Website, they are putting it into effect on October 1st.
Secondaly, they are only capping the extreme few that are using CRAZY amounts of data, and taht number was WAY WAY above 4g data.
I spoke to a friend at ATT and he stated that currently the cap was at 10gigs. Now, that could change but who knows.
The data throttling is not being done VIA software and such but instead a change to your plan. All ATT phones are tracked via IMEI numbers and thus the way they know who has what number and what data/messaging packages. All they are doing is making a change to your plan that will only allow you to access the EDGE network.
I can see this possibly being bypassed but will have to wait till the change hits to see what can be done to bypass this.
What dept does your friend work in? Mine read about what's going on when and stuff but they didn't give him exact info like how or what the limit was. Edge don't even work when I try so that wouldnt be right because it takes 5 minutes to load a Facebook status.. anyway whatever happens I hope the limit is a bit higher then 10 sometimes I hit 16 and I don't do mobile hotspots, and i connect to WiFi at home. Let's hope for a work around if so!

No offense but its people like you is the reason why tethering has been such a huge issue. Tethering (if you are not paying for it) should only be used for necessity or minor things like checking your email, post a Facebook status message, or upload a photo, so that you are not abusing the feature and bogging down the network/tower you are connected to.

why so horrified? if you write a check and there isn't enough cash in the account to cover it, are you surprised when the bank dings your account with a huge fee?
Top 5% users..... yeah right.
We all know how this is going to happened, you hit a certain cap, say about 10GB, then they throttle you to slower then EDGE speeds.
It's all their plan to ruin unlimited data for unlimited data users......
Hopefully though, the cap is high, or they ACTUALLY tell the truth for once and only throttle the top 5%, which I'm probably nowhere near (I use 3-4GB a month), so I really won't have to worry about it, but it sucks for people who use 10-15GB a month without tethering, you must not have wifi around where you normally are. :/

is any one else having this issue...
When i connect phone to computer via usb cable, and select USB tethering it keeps asking me how i want to connect and i lose connection...
i.e I select USB tethering and it will give me internet connection, then after short period it will ask me again weather i want charge only/disk drive/tethering... etc.
It sounds like a cable issue but it does it with all 3 of my cables.......
Eventually after selecting tethering 5 or 6 times it remains on this setting...
Is it just my phone?

Just some other questions:
2- Im in australia and am wondering should i be changing the radio or just leaving it alone?
3- whats the 'flip animation' mentioned in one of the battery logo update zips?
i have got two zips for battery percentage one is called WCX_Stock %_battery_lg and the other is flip&bat%35
what is the difference? All i want is percentage in stock battery logo.
PS. also loving my phone now with the sense 3.5 rom

Use the radio that works best in your area. If you don't know which one that is, you will need to try some out to find out. Make sure you flash the matching ril with each radio.
The following link is a video showing flip animation. If you don't want it, don't flash the battery mod with it. Altough, you could also disable animations in settings, and it would be inactive.

As for the radio...
This morning I did a speed test in my hometown and got 4.7 Mb/3.5 Mb..
That's unusually quick for my area but is it safe to say I don't need to change anything? Typically id get 2 Mb/ 0.9 Mb..
Also my CBD has 4g which is just rolling out now... Will my phone utilise the 4 g network? If so how will I know other than speed test? As I've done speed test in the city and get similar to above results.

You can under clock with SYS. Tune / Set cpu, and adjust to your liking.
Only you will most likely have to adjust every time after boot.

I think you'll need to use the APN' configuration for your carrier's region. This Rom is setup pacifically for the U.S..
I hope this isn't a silly question...
Will the overclocking have any negative repercussions?
I have checked out the temperature using SetCPU and it usually is 75° even while charging.. I got it to go up to 82° once though while playing a graphics intense game... SO not too worried
Also noticed that it under-clocks while not in direct-use? Which makes me less worried!!
Worse-case I fry the CPU and go get a Vivid, right? HAHAHA
LOVE THE ROM!!!
True it is set high, but i use system tune pro to keep it lower. You will have to set it every time you reboot.

After rebooting ICS so I could get data gain (gdangit), I ran a quick test...
Sure enough, you're right! On the $40 plan, now have 240 down and 300 up.
EDIT: Attatchment seems to be failing.... dunno why.
But, it's just a speedtest screenshot which is also available here: http://db.tt/UTRDeGv4
Great to hear. I switched back to tmobile because of really slow speed. I might think about switching back to simple again. 240Kbps sounds reasonable. Some more concerns though. Does youtube play fine at that speed or not. I dont need HQ, low quality like 240p is also fine .
old thread, but relevant...
It seems the may have raised their speeds again? I activated my simple mobile SIM today and ran a speedtest. Getting 297kbps. I guess the new cap is 300. Posting from NYC.

Simple has completely shut my data off in the first 3 days of service 3 months in a row. They have no set data cap, if you use their data, they shut you down. Do not go to simple, it is like wiping with a fifty, then flushing.

Hasn't happened to me.... I average between 1 to 2gb a month and they haven't shut me off. I was on the $40 plan and upgraded this past month to the $50 plan.
My sister's family live in the countryside and ADSL there is extremely slow (0.5Mb.)
I tested my 3G speed there with my Nexus 5 and managed to get a speed of 7.5Mb, and thought that they may be able to use a cheap android phone in conjunction with a Moto G to act as a wireless hotspot for the home.
I know Three's One Plan allows tethering through a phone, but not through a 3G router, or MiFi.
Was wondering wether if it would be better to have a router connect to the Moto G's hotspot, and then for devices to connect to the router as it may send out a better wifi signal around the home?
Would be interested in other's thoughts.
Thanks
Doesn't work like that, the devices need to connect directly to the phone. I did this myself for over a year with a note 2 and it was dire, if one person is doing something even remotely demanding, you can forget about anyone else getting any pages loaded.

Hi, thank for your reply.
Was performance really that bad.
As I say, their current connection is dreadful so surely could only be better?
Also whats stopping using a router/wireless bridge connect with the Moto G as the hotspot, then the router/wirelessbridge being the point all devices connect to?
Im just interested in why... not being funny with you
Sorry for the slow reply, I didn't even check this thread (yup I'm a moron lol). I've never tried the method of using a bridge so I can't comment, as for the performance, it will certainly be better for a single person using it (or even a few if it's simple browsing/Facebook games/low res 360p YouTube etc), but if anyone tries HD streaming, or online gaming, or downloading a file, they will get a so-so experience and anyone else won't get a look in.

It should be fine with a router connected to the Moto G's hotspot as a client and eveything else in the house will connect to the router, will get ofcourse better coverage at the house and you can place the Moto G somewhere where it will pick best signal from the mobile network.

You've missed the point of my post. Whether all the devices in the house connect directly to the phone, or through a bridged router, nothing will change at all. It is simply adding an unnecessary link to the chain.
