Has anyone made a throttle remover for ics yet?

You don't get throttled...so why would you need a remover?

---

If you're throttled I've been told by Verizon it's because you're congesting the tower you're currently at. I guess that means if you're in a different area than where you sucked down all those GBs you should be normal speed.
But Nah not that I've seen. No throttle remover.

And from what everybody has said, Verizon doesn't throttle 4G...yet.

I know at&t does but there is a work around. I think you just take it to the carrier store and tell them your sim card stopped working they will replace it and then you won't be throttled

wildstang83 was one of the people making these things maybe try pm'ing him. For what its worth Verizon throttles on their end not the phone end so its just a placebo effect.
Also from what I can remember Verizon had once said that if they do throttle you it will remain in effect till the end of your billing cycle. That was over a year ago and things change so I could be wrong. I've also heard they won't throttle 4g but have never seen anything in writing from Verizon but it makes sense as it can handle larger loads.

I used to make the mod on the dinc and we all found out it was a placebo effect so we stopped making them.. it doesn't do anything

I was never throttled on 4g. If you get throttled on 3g it's only during peak hours.

That's good to know as I turned off 4g to save battery. I'm covered by wifi just about all day except for 2 hours at the gym which is when I stream music.

When I was living in Ohio I took the bus to work. I'd just charge both extended batteries, keep the spare in my bag, and just watch Netflix during the trip (4 hours altogether.) Used 4G and never got throttled and usually used 8-9GB a month.

Most of At&t's "4G" network isn't really 4G either. HSPA+ is 3.5G. Only their LTE network is true 4G.

If I wasn't being throttled I wouldn't ask.

There's a way to unthrottle over on Rootzwiki that works for any phone with init.d support. If you search for PowerBoost it is located in that thread. I have used it on 3G at my house before I got 4G on Sunday and for the 3G parts of my commute and can tell you it certainly works.

Well maybe you should be more specific OP. A lot of people believe they throttle 4G so the back and forth starts.

Here are some better instructions: (from http://rootzwiki.com/topic/11110-the-or-powerboost-v25-prbprereleasebeta-were-getting-there/)
Download link: http://min.us/lhg5dyllrTInG
Unzip the pb 2.2 then use script manager to run the script in the unzipped file, run as root. Your phone will reboot, open terminal and type....
Su
Sysrw
Powerboost
Then your on your way to unthrottle.

I thought throttling was done on Verizon's end?

It is but people still think they get some benefit out of modding the phone to remove it. I've never seen anything except anecdotal proof that it works but there isn't any harm in doing it so more power to anyone who thinks it will help.

I'm not throttled and I've used 155Gigs and still have half a month to go.

if you want to get pedantic about it, current LTE networks aren't 4G either. We need to wait for LTE Advanced for actual 4G
