Let's see it was working then I tried to see if I could get free internet. So I put in this code hmm can't recall (*#*#3646#*#*#)? I think but it took me to my network section and I changed a network to gmail and ever since it has never connected:banghead:

So not sure if this has been discussed previously but it would definitely help back up the need for improvement in the antenna or network. This app basically pings the cellphone towers for data and reports it, you can read more on the link below.

Will the fact that I'm using a US Cellular PRL on a Spring phone screw with the results?

nice app thanks bro
just so you guys know this app is collecting our IMEI and ESNs (unique device id) i just started a thread on their forum asking them why.
edit: they changed the app so they no longer store our IMEI or ESN and added some security to the app. i am impressed by their response and just installed the app.
I figure both to distinguish what device and what network

Good info.
Also, be prepared for your battery life to decrease. These apps/services have been around for a while, and most users complaints are that the apps constantly running in the background kills their battery because it doesn't allow the phone to sleep properly.
So is this app basically like Sensorly?

Well battery is debatable given you adjust the interval.

I used qpst to change my carrier banner and it screws it up that's what the app uses to find what carrier u are on

My internet on straight talk is suuuper slow whenever its not connected to wifi. I was wondering if anybody has some tricks up their sleeve other than not inputting the proxy settings?? Thanks in advance.

What does your network icon show? It's located at the top right, next to your signal bars. Is it 4g or E?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Its 4g but I can't even load a YouTube video on HQ and on regular quality it HAS to buffer the whole video before playing it. So in a nutshell I can't stream video properly. Websites like Google and yahoo all work pretty snappy its just that streaming issue that's killing me lol

You might be getting throttled straight talk is random first I would take out your battery and your sim card for about 30 seconds then put em back in and turn it on. I f that doesnt work call their customer service and let them know your service is running slow and follow their instructions. I've had this happen a few times and these two steps worked for me when I call them I take out the battery and the sim card as well just because not sure it if helps.
also use the speed test app to see if there is any difference in your speed before and after you follow these steps hope it helps.

I think it might be something else cause I've been on wifi almost the whole month cause I'm always home working on music.. maybe my APN's wrong or something.. is your straight talk slow after a while? Like do you by any chance what's our speed cap??

Its not throttling, I have the same issue, I think its AT&T servers. I have the same service but on TMobile SIM and I switch SIM cards and on TMobile I get faster server and uninterrupted service. I think problem is mainly with ping times. My 3MB/sec AT&T service is wayyy slower than the 5MB/sec TMobile service (both on Straighttalk SIMs on the same GNote i717.
(P.S. I thought I need to Root to get 4G with TMobile sim but it works without root. Strange?!
