I have been doing the rounds testing out all the custom roms currently available and have yet to get the LTE speeds I get when my phone is on the original gingerbread.
When on gingerbread my download is about 40mbps and the best I can get on a custom rom is 12mbps.
Tried a few of the available tweaks (kids, blaze) unsuccessfully to the point where I had no data at all.
Anyone have any ideas what causes the huge difference.

I need all the possible Radios that I can flash to my At&t Atrix to improve speed.
I live in ecuador and since last update 4.1.83 the connection speeds are terrible. Ping times also very bad. Already flashed the telstra N_01.87.00R and the speeds increased significantly but its not as good as the radio included on the 4.1.57 update. Already tried to flash this Radio but I got no connection. Wich other radios could I flash to my At&t Atrix?
Is HSUPA enabled in the 2.3.4 ROM that I and others have flashed
I still am getting bad uploads
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1052914
This was a solution for me back in the day, but I'm not sure if its safe flashing it over this 2.3.4 ROM
Does anyone know what the official story on HSUPA is now a days for AT&T Atrix, and more specifically running the 2.3.4 build
Thanks
and does it use HSPA? it always shows 3G ( i know it may use it, but just doesnt show the disctinction, which some cusotm roms show)
but even my download speeds are real low via speedtest
Yeah, I had the same question and I found out it was because the images for 4g/HSPA+ or whatever are in the HK build.
Actually, after flashing the HK 2.3.4 build, my speeds went from 2MBPS average to a whopping 5.3MBPS average.
So 2.3.4 does fix things? Speed comparision between 2
Anyway to flash 2.3.4 radio alone without the whole rrom, don't wanna lose everything again

Hey all. I am running Seraphim with ICS KID T-Mobile modem. The 4G is very inconsistent and I know there are people trying to working on modems to make it better but in the mean time I found that when my phone drops to the "E" signal I get a stronger signal and its a very workable speed. Now I was like some other who made the decision to just go back to the stock AT&T modem until a better T-Mobile 4G modem can be found but I found that the ICS KID modem on the non-4G data signal is faster (for me anyway) than the non-4G data signal on the stock AT&T modem. I asked the question of how can I get the ICS KID modem to just stay on the non-4G signal but the only answer I got was "Go back to stock AT&T modem" but I figured out on my own and just wanted to share with other T-Mobile users that rather than flashing modems over and over again while waiting for a better 4G modem if you go to the
*#2263# menu selct [3] GSM Band Preference and then select [5] GSM 850/1900 you can keep your phone on the non-4G signal. Like I said in my area I just found it to be faster than the stock modem.
good stuff.
im like you dude. flashing every ics rom with every ics modem over and over changing every setting just to get a useable data connection outside wifi
finally found good data outside using. its not ics but its high speed data and i can customize everything using other apps/mods/etc....
ROM : SAUROM_XLA2_RC4A
kernel : holoNoteKernel-0.1-2-k (DON'T flash the kernel fix it will fawk your sheet up cuz its for RC5 and up)
modem : Blaze_4G_LB7_radio_ATTNOTE
extra---
TWlauncher default launcher
setcpu: 192min 1836max lagfree
V6 supercharged. megaram1 768+ HP
KAK kickasskernel (k)
not turbocharged (not scared to use now that i have 4g useable)
rom toolbox: SD boost 2048kb
used part of build.prop tweaks from the (Tweaks) build.prop Post in Dev section. only the ones for sleep, and screen touch improve, jpg and no boot animation. nothing that effected oom
nevermind i found it.
Question - does anyone have any idea what is different with the Saurom rom that allows me to get LTE speed (18-20 down, 4.2 up) with the status notification switching to LTE for data, while no other ROM does? (Baltmore area). I tried a couple of the new UCLD3 roms today, achieved somewhat decent 4G speeds, but no LTE. I kept the UCLD3 modem and went back to the Saurom rom, and boom - back up to LTE speeds again with proper switching when making calls.
I'd really like to know what Saurom rom has (in the build.prop maybe?) that the others don't. Would love to switch to an ICS for daily, but download speed is the priority.
Thanks.

When I flash a ICS rom I only get 1x data speed. The Stock rom odexed from 2.17 works fine. Shows 3g speeds. Do I need a different kernel or updated radio?

The stock ROM lies with respect to 3g vs 1x. It always shows 3g even if you are really 1x. Some of the ICS roms (MeanROM in particular) has fixed that so it will show correctly. So, it appears you went from 3g to 1x, but you were really 1x the whole time.
I am not 100% sure if this applies as it could be some other issue, but that is usually the issue between stock vs. custom Roms with respect to 3g vs 1x.
