Hey guys, I just signed up with sprint this week, upgraded the Rom on my titan to the 3.35 official rom (going to upgrade to DCD, but haven't built my rom yet), and my data speeds SUCK... I've tested 4-5 times now and my best download speed is around 150kb/s, but my uploads are normal.. between 300-500kb/s.
Anyone got any advice? This phone is TOTALLY stock.. I haven't installed anything at all on it yet.

I was running Verizon stock ROM. My download speed was between 600 – 1200kbps. Flashed the MR1 update to get Rev A and GPS. Now my top download speed is 135kbps. Called Verizon support and they decided it was a hardware issue so they sent me a new (not refurbished) phone. First thing I did was update with the MR1. Again, very slow data connection. Called Verizon support. Since this is the second phone they decided something was wrong with the MR1 update. They are sending me another phone and request that I do not update with MR1 until someone can figure out the problem.
Skywing’s GPS fix does work very well with Google Maps, just kind of slow.
Has anyone else checked their speed after the MR1 update at www.mobilespeedtest.com?
Any ideas?
Not much help, but I have noticed that my connection speed has dropped by at least half. I've topped out at a hair over 1 meg, and average usually 5-600k. I just ran the test again and only got 350. I haven't had any time to deal with verizon for my personal phone though.
Have been talking to Verizon support. They think there is a glitch in the MR1 update. They’ve had 2 additional reports with the same issue and think there is others that just don’t know it.
*cough* custom rom *cough*
I second that.

Had your same problem. Used to get 600+ before MR1. Flashed MR1, and it felt slow, but I hadn't thought to check it because I wasn't using it too much. When I did check it, I topped out at 150. I called Verizon support. The guy said that after the MR1 update, the phone does not connect correctly sometimes until they reset the data. He had me power off the phone, he did his thing. Powered it back on, reprogrammed... reauthenticated w/ new A-key (they walk you thru this)... and I rechecked it. I'm currently getting it in the 300s and 400s (He claims it's just a "heavy" data usage time of day). It's not quite the 600+ we're looking for , but it's better than 130s. Hope this helps. I'll check again at a less "heavy" time of day
Edit: Did a reset and checked again... got 599kbps... close enough
We found the problem. It was the PRL 51054 that was causing the phone to go into a loop. Most folks were on PRL 51056 but I had an older calling plan so I got a different one. If you dial *228 option 2, you will now notice PRL 51101 or 51099.
Hi guys, I recently flashed BAMF1.8 and MR2. It was working pretty well yesterday, but today I have no 4G at all and 3G seems to drop in and out at random. Sometimes, I don't even have 1x. Does anyone else have this problem? Is it a network issue or did I royally screw something up? Thanks!
im having the same problem i was using bamf sense 3.0 RC4 for a few days nd my mobile just stopped working. two days of flashing roms and radios i still got nothing verizon gave me a new sim nd still nothing i havent tried going back to stock, is that what i should do nd try to get a new phone? after trying to activate my phone online i have 1x now but i did have a few minutes of 3g/4g then nothing again HELP PLEASE!!!
I saw this same exact issue on Das BAMF Gingerstripped and it was really freaking annoying. The fastest solution was a reboot, but it was possible to wait it out until data comes back.
Another thing I started to play with before I flashed to CM7 was using Plane mode as a way to re-engage Mobile Networks (3G + 4G) to get data back. It worked sometimes, but other times nothing. So far running about 24 hours on CM7 and have not had this issue yet, where as on Gingerstripped BAMF I was seeing this problem daily.
I also just flashed the newest radio (1.70) and will see how that works. I'm hoping I just don't see this issue again at all, don't care if its due to CM7 or the radio. I just don't want to deal with it anymore.
Going to airplane mode and back didn't do anything. I guess its a problem with my phone then.
After disabling LTE completely, my phone works perfectly on 3G. Does anyone else in LA have 4G issues? I've flashed a bunch of roms and radios to no avail. I just want to know if I should keep tinkering or sleep on it. Thanks!

try going to a verizon store and see if their 4G devices work properly. at least that'll let you know if the network has issues.
ZIP = 90024
I've had no problems with 4g in northwest LA today. I'm Vanilla Bean's latest release on a froyo radio (can't remember which one, but it isn't the one that was leaked today)
I'm in ZIP 90007 and what's been happening is my phone seems to be connecting to 4G, but it doesn't work and just sits there. =\
It was stolen by Mexicans.

i got 4g in 91745....all day long..today at least
oh yeah...i'm running bamfsense3.0 rc4 with the latest radio.
Not sure what everyone else's take on the new radio is (.627), but I personally am not having as good of reception with 4G as I did with the MR 2.5. I ran the speedtest app on both and confirmed this.
I switched back over to the MR 2.5 as a result of my test, and sure enough, the 2.5 is still better.
Anyone else with similar issues?
I agree service wise mr2.5 was much better on 4g and even 3g... however, the new one has not given me even one restart since i loaded it. 2.5 i was having restarts or simple shutdown few times a week.
I have never had reboots with any radio or Rom but with the new OTA radio I lose 4G and it sticks to 3G a lot. If I force 4G I will see 1x a lot of times when I pick the phone up.
I went back to leaked 2.5 and all is right again in the world.
tried the build.prop with blaze modem... but here's the thing
before i updated modem, the phone got on edge
after update, nothing...
just wondering if anyone else was had success
Not really sure which ICS rom was installed on my Note. I purchased it a couple days ago and it already had ICS on it. I purchased a sim unlock code and flashed the blaze modem. I get 3-4mbps in certain areas and 8-9mbps in others. Upload ranges from 1mbps - 2.5mbps. I get great speeds at work and home and haven't had any dropped calls or dropped data.
Hello good folks, I have a quick question. I'm currently on M8 GPE 5.0.1, everything works flawlessly, I've noticed that when I "upgraded" my wife's device, she has LTE on her signal bars, and I have H. She is getting better signal than I am and download speed. Quick story, we have data unlimited which we kept when we migrated from Alltel Wireless. We're not getting the highest LTE speed, but still coming from Alltel at 1.2 MB download speed is an upgrade. My wife is getting about 6-8 MB/s and I'm getting 2-4 MB/s She's not currently home at the moment, but I will take a look at her device whenever she gets here. I am SuperCID, my HBOOT is 3.19, Radio is 1.25.214500021.06G_20.68.419t.01_F, my OS is 416.401.10 I guess my question is, how do I upgrade the firmware? I know for a fact her OS and radio are different. Thank you in advance.
There should be a full firmware.zip for the gpe in the other forum I think gpe is 5.1 now, but I would just try and update to the newest gpe Rom and firmware to see if it helps, or use the version your wife has if it's differeng
