Hey guys,
So the way this story starts out is my digitizer broke. The screen stopped responding one day and so I was like eh, I'll bring it in to get it replaced. I have the total protection plan and so it was no big deal. The guy took the screen out and put the new one in right in front of me.
As he was replacing the screen I said something about the mms messaging not working properly. I just couldn't get MMS messages anymore and when I sent them it would show them as sent but the person on the other end wouldn't get it. So he reset the profile I believe and changed maybe some other stuff server side(?). since then the phone has had TERRIBLE data speed. I mean next to useless.

I wasn't sure at first what the deal was. I reinstalled a different rom, flashed a new radio to see if that did it and it did nothing. I went back to the store to tell them they borked it, but the service guys were already gone for the night so I have to wait for tomorrow. My experience with these guys was bad before this but now it's even worse so I want to fix it myself if I can. Any guesses?
tl;dr Fix remarkably slow 3G. What can I do.
Nope, it wasnt the store, its just sprint. Those speeds seem just about right for sprint 3g.

I wish that were the truth. The first two were using wifi to make sure it worked. The rest are on 3G. In my area sprint usually flies and I tested the speed next to a few people that have sprint as well and they've been way, way higher. In some areas in my region I can get 800kbs down. No where near as slow as this.

So after rooting and messing around with different roms and such, I installed an app called network that has been mentioned on here, to see about switching to 3G easily while at work.
Well I started noticing that the phone couldn't keep a 4G signal at all anymore, but didn't put 2 and 2 together because of some of the other stuff I had done, mainly flashing through 3 different roms in 45 mins.
Well I unrooted my phone, and got it exchanged today because of some terrible back light bleeding, that thankfully my new phone doesn't have, and rerooted the phone, restored all my apps on Mik Rom, and BAM, 4G goes screwy out of nowhere. So I looked through everything and the only networking type app I had was Network. I uninstalled it, and now instead of 998 ping and .5 d/l speeds I am averaging somewhere near 14 down and 71 ping.
Only change was that app. Anyone else have this issue after installing that app? Or if you are having 4G issues, and have this app, UNINSTALL IT!
just thought I'd throw it out there, considering it was making me really mad.
Just tested it myself and it's all good here.

Did you make changes in the network app?
The app is designed to DISABLE 4g. So if you made changes then yeah you would lose 4g.
Im sure this isnt the case, but wanted to mention it just in case.
I use mine to disable 4g since im not in a 4g Area but it works fine this way. But then again my 4g cant go screwy because it doesn't exist.

Hmmm... I notice your speedtest app actually showing an accurate upload (compared to the double digits people used to post. Is this an updated version? Speedtest had acknowledged inaccurate reporting on the TB.
I removed the proxy on my evo a while ago mainly because it broke the streaming music. I also noticed a pretty nice speed increase on top of it fixing my streaming issue.
Streaming works just fine on the 3D and 3G speeds are so so not as good as my evo with proxy removed. This could just be the radio or dumb luck. Has anyone tried removing the proxy to see if it has increased speeds any? I'm thinking about trying it but figure I would ask if anyone has given it a whirl yet.
Update:
I decided to just give it a try, called sprint, got a super cool guy gave me the MSL no ?'s asked. Was on the phone no more than a min with him, I am gonna make sure to answer the survey questions for him. I love getting cool people. Anyway just removed the proxy and ran some speed tests, didn't really make much of a difference.
I'm getting between 400-800 down & 500 up average. Like I said similar results with & without the proxy at least for me. I'm just gonna leave it removed, I can't imagine having the proxy will ever help speeds in the future. It is the middle of the day so average speeds tend to be a little slower. I have pulled 1,500+ down on my evo in the same test area at times but that wasn't an average.
If anyone else wants to try I would be curious to see if it makes any difference or not since different areas can perform very differently.
Yes, confirmed faster. There's a thread about this in the development thread.
can HTC install a trackball on this thing?

oh ok. Didn't seem to have nearly the effect as it did on the evo but like I said I left it out. Plus I only did a few tests so I'm sure it will be better in the long run. A trackball would be kinda cool actually, I'm not sure where they would put it though.
Can someone post the original settings?

J/k, but from what I've read a LONG time ago, it'll be pretty much the same.
One developer claimed it'll be impossible. But who knows.

do Verizion phones have ASOP and LTE? I'm too lazy too look, but I'm gonna guess that by now they do

I was under the impression the the Thunderbolt had LTE in AOSP.....maybe not, who knows.
Also, It should help that the GNex is LTE. Given those maybe proprietary blobs (I really don't know how open Nexus code is) if its not, why wouldn't it be in relatively quickly? Yeah it's a different radio, but the interface should be similar across most of Sprints LTE devices.
EDIT: Yes, it seems the Thunderbolt does have LTE working in CM7
Edit 2: VZW's LTE has a removable SIM card for LTE Activation, I assume ours is very similar, with possibly embedded or spoofed SIM. This probably makes it at least easier to get to work because the device doesn't have to handle the authentication the the network, the network handles it.
Alright so I'm running T-Mobile and when I try sending a picture it says sending and never actually sends.I'm wondering if anyone can help me with this what probably is a easy fix.I can send text ..call...search the web but form some reason never will send pictures ? If this has been discussed I apologize but its pretty aggravating cause I have to send pictures sometimes of billboards for work and the only way I've been successful is through gmail..... Any help without a troll would be appreciated

Try ChompSMS for me? I know it resizes the pictures down to 300kb - iirc - which is the max T-mo allows. May be whatever you're using isn't compressing them enough. Also, could be your mms settings in your APN are wrong for some reason. May want to check those.
Could also be that you're on craptacular Edge at the time, and the phone is taking 3 hours to upload the pic, during which, it loses service or something, and it fails.
Just tossing out ideas.
Thanx im going to give chomp a try....might be changing to straight talk Cruz tmo has horrible service around me .. I jump in and out of edge like no ones business ..thanx Anthony

Can you lower your camera resolution before you take the picture?
Might try that too thanx

Hi.
Im on Resurrection Remix 5.1.5
My mobile connection has being going on and off more and more frequently and is now dead. WIFI is ok.
I have done a number of things to troubleshoot this issue, but nothing seems to help.
Now all I see is the empty, black triangle where the bars used to be.

This was done while I momentarily had mobile connection:
I have turned mobile network on and off numerous of times.
Location doesnt matter. Right now Im in a well covered area.
I have reinstalled modem. Im on xxms4.
GetRIL tells that modem and RIL doesnt match, so I tried switching RIL. That disabled mobile connection completely.
I have tried reinstalling OS.
I didnt check while it worked, but now it turns out that I dont have an APN. When I enter a new (description from my carrier) and press "save" it doesnt save at all.
After mobile network died I disassembled the phone to look for bad connections etc. It all looked fine. Phone works, but network is still dead.
Could it be the sim card?
Plz help
Whats the average views to reply ratio here?
Fun apart.
I really would appreciate any suggestion on what could be the culprit here.
Im reluctant to invest $20 in a new sim card if I have to ditch the phone and get a new one, that uses a different sim card size.
I did some further investigation.
I tried my sim in old cell phone and it didnt detect it. Maybe incompatibility or a clue to a broken sim. I dont know.
I tried some different modems xxls8 and xxls9.
Cheers,
I have to say Im a bit disappointed about this forum.
I made a request more then a week ago about a faulty phone/sim card. Not even a single reply to help me sort this out.
I am usually not the person who conplains a lot, but I am on other fora only a fraction of this one, where responses comes within hours or minutes.
Thought this was the best place to get help with Resurrection Remix. I was wrong.
Dont bother respond to this thread, I will unsubscribe.
