Hey, I want to change my carrier because airtel 3G is expensive and 2G gives me only 50-60 kbps speed though 3G gives me about 2Mbps.. The bad thing that Airtel did after launching 3G was that 2G speeds were reduced from 250kbps to 50kbps. They did it just because they want people to use 3G , I want to know your experience, and please suggest me which carrier(2G) should I opt for to get at least 150kbps speed ?
I suggest you to buy a tata docomo
Activate 2g schemes and select 3g network
Then you will get more than 200kbps and 100 ping

So i wanted to know if the "H" means more than the icon of 3G that sometimes appears up ^^^
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Yes it does. The H+ icon u see indicates that you are g getting connected @ hspa+ speeds which are higher than plain 3g speeds.

Your connected to hsdpa, not hsdpa+. The regular vibrant cannot receive hsdpa+. Hsdpa is faster then 3g, but still slower then hsdpa+.

This is basically correct. The issue is 2 things:
1- having the icon that recognizes the Hsdpa connection and
2- The tower/tower software updated to send send the signal.
This is why in some areas you do not get the H but just 3G and E but as they update all towers this will be everywhere

I just rooted my phone with the cryogen mod but now I don't get 3g connection except rare occasions where it flickers. Is there a way to fix this?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Do you mean Cyanogenmod 7?
u mean CM7 not CR7 right?
Odin back to stock fixes many probs i would try that first.
Lol cryogenic mod 7. It freezes up all the time!

it's h because he's connected to an hspa (h) tower instead of a utms tower (3g). but he will not EVER get 4g speeds on the 3g vibrant.
So which is faster?

H is 3.5g, utms is 3g. If you can get h (which on CM7 is actual h and not just replacing the 3g .PNG files with an h .PNG), then you'll get faster speeds.
But do keep in mind, to get Tue hspa+, you need on of T-Mobile's new 4g phones because that new hardware supports the new theoretical speed limits.

Hey guys i exprience slow data during both morning and night. Is there a tweak to increase the speed? Or it is the carrier fault?

same trick like yours 2g plan but i use it on 3g network...now i am getting constant speed of 200kbs
i can download at 100/kbs without any boost's and this is when i use it as wireless teather
Its your carrier (possibly)..if you have T-Mobile once you pass 2gb/5gb, the speed caps out and speeds are slower...sprint is the only US carrier to have unlimited data without charging you extra money to get more speed..the 3g turbocharger tweak works ( I think).
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
I get constant 250-340 kb/ssec without turbo charge .and using idm i get 450 kb/sec.

3g turbo charger tweak does not work. Whenever I try this tweak the data stops working.

There are many SIP services online (ex. Skype, Voipwise, Smartvoip...). Skype is useful for landline calls, but other services are cheaper for mobile. Check them all, they have different promotions and prices.
