Hello, I am new to the DNA. Has anyone noticed slower LTE speeds compared to other devices. The 4g icon is displayed but when browsing it loads pretty slow. Any Ideas?
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2
what kind of LTE coverage do you have in your area? how long has your phone been activated? i get 20mbps download at my workplace, which is out in the middle of the desert!
Great coverage. I came from an iPhone5 and Raze Maxx Hd that had great LTE speeds. The phone has been active for about 16 hrs.

i know my lte speed is awesome. It was better than my cable internet before I switched over to Verizon Fios.

It varies on the DNA from 1.5mbs to 5mbs. On the Maxx HD it would be between 16 and 28

Throw your SIM in another phone and see what speeds you get in the same place as your dna. Because the dna has some of the best radios in any smartphone out.

I think it already has the new update. I want to revert back so I can root. I'm on an unlimited plan and need the hot spot.

There is a team working on root and s-off for the ota phones so sit tight and you will be able to do it in the next few weeks (maybe longer... Not sure the status on it)

Afaik the only thing that needs to be done is to figure out how to get supercid on the ota(not saying that's easy, just that the ota didn't break everything related to rooting). S off works on the ota if your already unlocked and I think unlocking works if you have super cid.

I do speed tests all the time. I average about 6-10mps in my area, which is right outside Nashville by about 45 minutes. The other day, ran a test and I pulled down almost 50mps... Did another one 5 minutes later same thing. Since then, have not been able to replicate. Note, This was during peak hours.

We get it from HTC and they won't release it for 90 days. There is still a possibility that even if we get it it may not run correctly on the thunderbolt. We will see though.

The thunderbolt is the first phone on Verizon that has svdo which let's you talk and surf the internet at the same time even on 3g data. HTC and Verizon have both been protecting this technology by keeping sources closed indefinitely on the radio software for one. Since a lot of the sources are closed devs don't have interest in finding hacks and workarounds to deal with the lack of source. That's why a lot of the devs left this device. Even still though we have official ics and in a few months we should have the sources we need to build custom kernels that are needed for making a jb from.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2
Yeah I can understand the frustration from the devs. If we get it I'll enjoy it, if not then oh well not a big deal in my book. Still a good enough phone for my broke budget right now either way

Id look at the development community. OTG on the DNA solves the external sdcard issue in my opinion because you can just plug up a flash drive or hard drive.
If it was me making the decision, I'd go with the dev community I felt best about and was in tune with. I gave 700 for my DNA so I could have bought about anything, and I chose the DNA and am VERY happy with it. Several of my good friends are developing for it.

The 2.06 update pops up every time I unlock my phone. I'm walking to the store, I look at my phone and behold its installing the 2.06 update on its own. Well played Verizon. The thought of selling this phone never crossed my mind, but since 2.04 root is priority over 2.06 I'm highly considering it.

It's not about how good stock is or isn't. It's about being able to do what you want.
Go try and use teamviewer or a vnc server. Need root.
How about Wi-Fi tether that doesn't require a screen password. Need root
Titanium backup? Nope... root.
Game cheat engine's... root
So while the stock interface is fine, no unrooted phone can do the above without it.

Same here. I tried to find your model with a quick Google search, and nothing came up. It could be fairly similar, or different enough where our unlock and s-off methods would brick your device. ROMs may have the same outcome.

When I first got this device, I read a forum on Android central that pushed me towards using the butterfly version of twrp. It didn't work so I tried the dna file and it worked perfectly. I know the 2 phones share some of the same numbers, like the hoot and a couple more. Also I seen on a cyanogenmod 10.2 screen shot, that it uses the same kernel numbers 3.4.10 I think.

Got cm10.2 installed!! Everything is working. I really like it so far. I thought I was stuck in a bootloop for a minute. Everything loaded fine after initial boot. I brushed through the screens and checked the software version and went back home. From there I selected reboot and it got hung up on like the second HTC screen. I waited like five minutes and nothing happened. So I held the power button down and the home screen popped up. Maybe I just didn't wait long enough. Everything I use frequently is working fine.

Found it
the htc 6435lra is the model number for the htc deluxe
The HTC deluxe is an exact clone of the DNA with the exception that its not made for Verizon(it says HTC above the screen not Verizon) it also has been "repackaged" for use the with the local cellular service provider Cellcom of Wisconsin(now I know where you live )
It basically has different drivers(maybe hardware, probably not) than the DNA and should be treated as a GSM DNA
(No CDMA builds)

They must be part the LTE Rural America (LRA) agreement as well. The local/small carriers put up Verizon LTE sites and they get some roaming benefits. That's why the spec number was 6435lra instead of 6435lvw.
Cool, I didn't really know what LRA was, I assumed the r and a were for regional appalachian. I'm pretty sure the phone is cdma because I don't have any of the GSM modes selected in settings.

Can't wait till Verizon releasess KitKat for the Droid.!!! Phone can deffinatley run it with zero issues with it on KitKat now.
Of course VZW is always a bit on the slow side of approving...
I think what vzw was/is doing is updating all their other newer devices first (to get people to upgrade) before they roll out the updates to us older phone
This is just what it seems to me now that they have worked on the other HTC devices we are hopefully next unless another device comes along

I have zero reason to doubt that. After all it makes sense revenue-wise. Yeah the DNA is an "older" model. But it can still hang quite well with the newer ones. :good:

I'm in no rush for Verizon to push us Kit Kat. Look at some of the amazing Devs the HTC Droid DNA has. @nitsuj17 @santod040 @Zarboz , we don't need Verizon with them in the DNA forums.!!! I mean newer system files and a newer kernel with help the stability of the roms we have now and future releases. But besides that we are fine.!!
And I just joined the DNA forums but I've been in the android central forums and helped with many rims there so I have some experience with roms. And as soon as my post count goes up I might start a little something, something.!! A girl dev in the DNA forums.

Who knows Verizon is usually the one that causes updates to take forever. So when ever they finally feel it's ready and want to push it out is when we will see it. They said some time in April but I doubt it.
