So I was playing around and pissed because I could not sync one of my programs do to data packets dropping like mad on my phone. This is Windows Mobile 6.1 BTW. I went into with resco registry editior and changed HKLM\Comm\Tcpip\Parms and changed the TimerWheelSize to Value of 5 and soft reset via software reset. (Like Psshutxp) Now the phone is off the hook and netfront is super smokin' fast as well as my company programs syncs now. Give it a shot and let me know your results. Attached is a resco registry file to make it easy to import reg settings.
I also changed my dns settings to the following: (Super Low Latency)
4.2.2.1
4.2.2.2
If your data connection comes up and asks for username password, leave it blank and checkmark save password...

The fix for IE going so god aweful slow and other internet connect software on the titan running windows mobile 6.1
I'm trying this out right now, although I didn't find a place to stick the DNS settings.
I'll see how it goes, thanks
Edit: Seems faster!
dns settings are under the advance settings of your connection.
it's still lagging at some webpages how ever, i was able to download google maps without it stopping
Edit:
after going to a more than 2 webpages. yes it does seem to move a bit faster it still lags on a few webpages but on others that it was lagging on prior it's now flying
Will it work for the kaiser or Titan only?

I guess this isnt for the cellular internet? I don't see DNS settings under the Sprint network setup I have.
I am on Sprint and made the suggested changes. It still stalls for me when trying to download live search, but web pages do load faster.
A noticeable improvement for me loading pages!!! Thanks
I have changed the registry value to 5 but after a reset it changes back to default 11.

dalvares7 if you read carefully it is stated to do a software soft reset. Not a stylus soft reset. Use psshutxp to reset device after making reg changes.
The only question will be whether this setting will get lost during future soft resets via stylus... I havent tested it out yet but I will.
Anyone else know?

The settings do stick after future soft resets.
Are there any other ill effects to setting this??
actually went down for me
average speed before reg mod: 753
Average speed after reg mod : 654
Average speed after DNS mod : 587
I've only played around for about 30-45 minutes now... no ill effects noticed so far.
The difference in initial loadup, as well as subsequent loadup of pages is very obvious. Major improvement.
Also, I'm still running the 2.0.0 beta DCD ROM, which was mostly WM6.0 (not 6.1) core.
changed the Parm. settings to 5 and not the dns. It's been faster for me. Before the change was around 600k, but after the change it went up to 1300k.
Thanks for the settings, great job..
Holy crap!
It sped it up by almost double what I was getting before.
I have a question though...maybe some of you will know the answer...
When using PIE and running the mobile speed test on dslreports.com, even with this new reg edit, I only get speeds ranging from 500-600 every time.
I used Opera mini and ran the same tests and got between 1100-1600 every time. (Sometimes it would even tell me that it was too fast, EVEN when using the 1mb test)
What's up with that?
WOW , applied the "fix", tethered the phone with WMWifiRouter and i certainly see a big difference.
I attached a Speedtest from Speedtest.net (great site btw For PC's)
Befor i had half of the values being shown in my results. Talk about "Fix"
-If your wondering i'm using DCD's 2.2.6
With Radio 3.27

I am pretty sure Opera uses a proxy server that loads / processes the webpage there then resends it to your mobile device. So the speed you see when you use Opera is their conection to the test site.
those dns servers are Level 3's backbone
Hi guys, I'm going to buy a HERO and I was wondering if there's something like QUICKGPS (that small prog that makes the cold gps fix faster... I have it on my P3600 and it works great) available for this device. Does anyone knows if there's something available for the android system?
Thanks everybody in advance
Cheers

seconds, the hero keeps the gps running in the background for the my location feature (And no it dosent affect battery life) so by the time u need gps its allready locked on to the sats lol
but it is taking really long to lock on in sportypal
it takes a max of two minutes (usually <30 seconds for me when outside. the gps is not running in the background, but the location is determined roughly through mobile network, that's what makes the gps fix quicker. see a-gps on wikipedia.
The first time might take a while, but after that if you are on nice, clear place should be fast to locate you
But if someone knows of any app similar to QuickGPS common share it, it will be nice to have it
I had the HTC Diamond and had to use Quick GPS to get a quicker fix, never have an issue with the Hero, by the time Google Maps or CoPilot starts up and you put in a destination it has a fix (outdoors)
Hey Guys,
I tried this rom from the beginning.. but there's always been this GPS issue,
I updated Radios, re-flashed Radios after Flashing the rom, always did a wipe,
tried enabling GPS before flashing the ROM (some things, other people helped)
nothing helped for me, and i've also seen, there're many other people out there, which do have the same problem.
I like GPS myTracks, Navi, etc... everything can work fine but I don't want to restart my phone and loose about 10-15% of the power to just en-able GPS... that's way off...
so my question: some guys, brought it to work...
what radios do you use? which kind of version...
how did you flash? anything un-ordinary ;=) etc..
Please, I think there is a solution, except fixing the bug ;P
greets,
I used the latest radio version, but you have to enable gps after flashing the Rom and then restart the phone, once that's done, gps will work with no problems and as far as I know, it doesn't reset if rebooted

Are you disabling GPS and then trying to get satelites?
Is there any reason why you just don't leave GPS enabled? it won't effect anything unless its being used.

Okay, that's a different approach ;=)
So you have GPS always en-abled and it does not drain power? does not effect anything? and is just being used if an application like MyTracks, GoogleMaps etc is beeing opened?
What if GoogleMaps is one of the 6 'last-used' applications? sure about that?
thanks a lot for uR response,

I always have GPS enabled without any battery problems. It is only on and working when an app asks for it. Google Maps stops asking for it when you hit the return button. You can tell that for yourself. When in Google maps you can see the GPS is being used because it shows on the notification bar at the top as an icon of a white dish with green arcs. Then hit return and that icon disappears. All good apps let go of GPS as soon as they are finished with it.
BTW the list you get when you hold down the home button is only a history list - it does not mean they are working in the background.
thanks

Isn't it disturbing you, that GPS is enabled all the time?

Why should it? Just because it is enabled does not mean it is actually on or using any power. It means it is waiting to be turned on when an app I decide to open asks for it. So, for example, my sat nav, google maps, yelp, or google places all turn it on when they open and then turn it off when they finish. They are all "good" in the sense of being well designed apps, that do what they are supposed to. Sorry if you don't like that term but that is what I mean.
Not so well designed ones, like, for example, Shop Savvy don't switch it off. And that is annoying. But in any event I know whether it is on or off by looking at the notifications bar - if the dish icon is there then it is on, if not it isn't, even though I have it enabled.
If it starts coming on randomly then I know I have a rogue app doing something in the background that I have not asked it to do.
hehe thanks man
it's just the thing...
-my location
-GPS
-worldwide
PLUS: en-abled
but i understand now 'good apps' just use it on demand,
bad always have the connection open
just an open connection start battery draining
i just wanted to prevent all this by simple en-ableing it JUST when i need it
like things usally are used turned on - on demand hehe
thx man
finally : it does NOT WORK
so guys...
finally, now tested it about 1 week with the above congifuration...
GPS always on ... on boot... the whole time the phone is up
- @ modaco custom rom: i started any GPS app, and within about 10 seconds, at max 30secs i got a working GPS lock on about 4-7 satellites...
and was able to locate my me
here (vanillain 5.2): i start.. wait.. get 'to see' 2-4-5 satellites (fast) but they don't lock, they vanish for about 1sec, again 5-6 satellites ... sometimes 7 but the just don't lock ---- waiting---- waiting---- ...
i can hold my position: wait for some minutes.. then i ---- get a lock.. then also gps-tracking works... somehow, sometimes
but guys, i really don't have that much time.
I want to get GPS locks during walking.., at any time, fast. i want to get it fast, and everything else ist just '''''BS'''''
so for me: it's not working at vanillain..
that's not worth calling...it works... sry
TIP PS:
guys, switch to 'legendroid 1.01' for working GPS!
i got a lock within 5 secs in my room!!! to 8 satellites...
and enabled GPS after boot (it was dis-abled at boot time) at first boot for the first time,
everything works perfekt
thanks a lot at the developer of legendroid

so guys.. i can confirm...
using this radio (i need to boot with GPS en-abled..) but at least...
i always get a GPS signal and lock within minutes...
>>>gps works with radio version: 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.08.29 - boot with GPS on<<<
My installation has been working fine and I even managed to increase battery life by installing "Juice".
Suddenly, about 3 days ago I noticed the phone was saying no signal. I was clearly getting data, as my apps worked and I was getting eMail alerts and downloads, but no calls.
I tried restarts, but to no avail. I am using Rod_100 UK as I am on Vodafone UK... I assume it is correct, certainly worked for the past month.
I have had to revert back to Windows Mobile.
My immediate thoughts are it is Juice that is causing it. I have just logged back in to my XDAndroid to write this and Juice did not load, and guess what, the signal has come back.......
Just in case is there anything else to look for?
Never heard of "Juice". I have heard of JuiceDefender however...
If you don't have the issue on a clean install, I'd say that app (or one of many I'm assuming you have installed) is the culprit. Rename your data.img and boot, see what happens.
Yes, it is JuiceDefender, apologies for the abbreviation.
I un-installed it and I have network again, but I guess I will loose battery longevity again, not that it made a huge difference.
I'll keep my eye on it....
Still no improvement
No, still not working. I get no signal, when I am in eye shot of a mast and on WM I get a full signal. I am booting in to WM to a deluge of SMS messages that I had not received, mostly vMail notifications, to which the messages are from calls that I did not receive.
The radio is not as strong and keeps dying on me requiring a reboot
I dont know what exactly but some program is giving android problems

The startup file
Sorry, ignore me.
After the change, I double clicked the Android shortcut to launch Android, but it would not start, so I assumed the file had to be executable (as it was the only item I had changed)... I had forgotten to disconnect my TP2 from my laptop!
I've done so now and it has launched. A stupid user errorhttp://media.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
I'll keep you posted on any changes.
Ha, fair enough. Enjoy.
Solved. Keep loosing Radio
OK. I tried all the above. Delete data.img, and check the startup script/cmd.... none worked. At some point I would loose the network connection.
As it started within days of loading JuiceDefender and its components and from the description of how it works - controls the running apps including radio and data transfer, I always suspected it to be the root cause. After the other checks failed I tried removing all Juice Defender apps and since then c30hrs I have not experienced any loss of communication.
Thanks everyone for your help, and I hope this will be of use to anyone else suffering from loosing radio/ signal.

It has been a number of days now and I have not experienced the same issue, so my conclusion is that it is the JuiceDefender that caused the problem.
The down side now is that I get 7am to 4pm battery life as opposed to 7am to 7pm.... But atleast I can receive and make calls!
A note: The signal strength on the project image is not as strong as the WM6.5, but I am sure that is a known issue.

Hrm, didn't realize that app would help out that much. But, it makes sense if it's turning off all your radios lol.
Anyhoo, have you seen the kernel I posted from WisTilt2? It has full panel collapse, and battery life is astounding with it.
Code has yet to be committed, as he still has some work to do for the AUO panels (select RHOD100's basically) - so unless you have one of those you can reap the benefits of his new code .
(bzo got nearly 65 hrs with the radio on, sync off - 100% sleep.)
Looks interesting, but where do I download the latest version... I don't plan reading all the threads! And IF I installed would I loose all my settings and apps?
Update
It has been a while since I did all this tinkering, during which time there has been an update.
What I find I get is sometimes (c every couple of days) the meter says I have signal but nothing connects with a message "no network". Also, but far more frequent, as with today where it has occurred 3 times, I dial a number and nothing happens. It says ringing but there is no ring tone and it never seems to connect. I then shut the call down either by using the hang up button or the soft hang up key. The screen then changes to "Hanging Up" but again sits there indefinitely. The only solution id to do a restart.....
Any ideas?
PS: any news on when the bluetooth and camera will be working...?
I have found that any app that acts as a task killer of any sort (juice defender must in someway stop apps to save battery) can also kill your connection. I found this out while using xdandroid and it became immiediately clear when I stopped using the task killer my bars and data proved to be more consistant! Hope that helps.

I followed jkabaseball's directions to spoof the NC as SCH-I800. Enables the streaming video, which is great. The problem I'm having is that when the stream loads, it doesn't play smoothly. What's weird is that it isn't stuttering as you would normally expect, but rather the video speeds up and then slows down.
Anyone else experienced this? If not and your streaming works fine, can you tell me your setup? Seems to be some kind of performance issue.
I've got Tablet Tweaks with OC at 1.1Ghz.
Thanks.
I sometimes get this for the first 30 seconds - 1 minute, but then it settles down.
I occasionally see what you are seeing, but not always, and it usually clears up.
For me, it seems that I can play the game video for anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes and then the screen turns white. Restarting the app doesn't usually restore it. Even rebooting doesn't seem to help.
Anyone else see this behavior? Does the app just suck or is it my device?
I am in CM7 build 41 and dalingrin's kernel 18C (but saw this behavior with previous cm7 and kernel versions), and my wifi connection is pretty fast and reliable (~16Mb ).

I am in the same boat as you. Sometimes it'll load up right away, sometimes I get 20 white screens before it loads. Doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to when it works.
FWIW, I was able to solve the constant white screen issue.
Background: I had purchased the MLB At Bat app for my HTC Evo, so when I got the NC up and running I just went and downloaded the version in the Market that was already "purchased". This was the version that was getting me the white screen problems.
So, I uninstalled this app and sideloaded a different MLB At Bat .apk that I got from other sources. For whatever reason, this version seems to pull up the stream right away 100% of the time, although the problem I have now is that the video and audio aren't in sync (the video is a full second or two ahead of the audio).
Anyone experienced this? So frustrating!
somebody help, i have a mixture of all that. sometimes just a white screen sometimes fast then stops sometimes plays for like 4 seconds perfectly then goes to white screen with just audio HEEEELLLLLPPPPPPP
EDIT: i installed an older version of flash player and i havent had a problem yet. i attached the version thats been working for me

Thanks for posting this.
Unfortunately for me, I gave it a try without much luck. Like the other versions, I can watch for several minutes before the video freezes or turns completely white. Don't know how many restarts, wipes, retries until it finally works again.
I hope it's still working for you.
I almost hate to mention it because I'll probably jinx it, but the flash player update (v. 10.3) seems to make this work really well so far tonight.
Not sure if anyone still viewing this thread, but if you download location spoofer, and set your location to mexico (i'm using Cancun) you can view the postseason TV feed, and not just the camera angle version they give you for the postseason.
I too discovered this ability last evening. I put myself in Germany, but none the less it worked well. Too bad I didn't figure this out till the 4th inning of my game.
