I'm looking for an app that will throttle my download and upload speeds. Is there such a thing? I want to do an experiment concerning carrier throttling.

for downloading u can use ADM advance download maneger pro...:good:
Yes, advance download manager will do the thing. By the way, if you are using torrent, then just choose the one with many seeds.
Anything that is system-wide? I need to download things off of an Amazon S3 server and I don't think that ADM does it.

All i can think of is forcing 2g but dont know if thats what you want..
did you sort it?
I was just wondering if you found a way... I'm trying to find a way to limit the bandwidth (kB/s) that iPlayer and 4od download functions use... I was wondering about using the Linux command throttle and applying it to an app but I don't know how...

I've just finished the first version of BradyBound. It shapes the download speed of the entire system.
Be warned however that this works by dropping packets. This means that some download quota will be wasted! Also, you need root.

Can this be done with upload speed?
Bandwidth ruler free
you can use bandwidth ruler , it needs root . it can limit your upload speed for your phone and download/upload for tethered connections. Limiting phone download speed is difficult as downstream traffic depends on the network . :good:
you can download it via this link :
Also , you can find its description in the following xda thread :

Well, I don't think that you are going to get any application which could do the same, Yes you can get apps that promised that they can accelerate but think logically you have got 1Mbps plan how you are going to get 2 Mbps speed ?? Yes, a little improvement can be seen but I don't think you can get to see any major improvement,

I have both but I was wondering which one is better....
I heard that the APN can be seen by AT&T and they will charge me and make me buy a tethering plan.
On the other hand Barnacle is slow.
So can I get caught on either? which one?
Thanks.
Come on? Someone has to know about this....
hotspot
u answered ur own question. the fact that ATT can see u with custom apn i wouldnt even risk it. use wifi tether or barnacle..

But the real question I was going for is which one allows faster DL and UL speeds?

Run speedtest using both and compare results?
fyi i got much faster results using pdanet with usb wire over using barnacle

neither. get an iphone
I work for at&t and we can't look at data in real time like that. At&t looks for extremely high data usage and then can go back and analyze from there. From my understanding it's all about TTL values and the difference of the phone and tethered device

Is it possible to use sqlite hack to get free mobile hot spot like we did for razr?

I've been checking and haven't found settings yet. I think they do a little more than the Motorola RAZR does. I've gone so far as to enable the hotspot feature (paid) to compare it to the entries with it not activated and the only setting I found did not work - it still checked the entitlement.
You're in the wrong forum... This one is for the international S3 with the device number i9300.
Aftermarket Tethering apps should work fine though if you're rooted. Some custom roms may also include the feature.

Most of the aftermarket apps will work - but if he is like me he would rather be able to use the built in one. I know there is a widget out that will enable the built in one, but I'm not a java programmer and even after decompiling the .apk to a .jar I'm having trouble following it.
Anywho, can somone move this into the correct forum for the Verizon one then please.
Thanks.

First of all, bumping is against the rules, post #2 was a bump..
Now to your problem, has you area changed, what is the network mode? U, E, G, G+, 3G, H, H+, 4G? You need to supply us with info, otherwise we can't help..
I'd say you've just reached an area, where the network mode is different. If not, then you have changed the modem, because those are the two things making out your data/speed
If you are using Wi-Fi, it may just be a coinsidant, but maybe you provider is doing something to the DSL and your connection is therefore quite rubbish..
If that is also not the case, maybe your device is underclocked a bit too much
Hope I could help!

It is modem related. Under clocking has nothing to do with it at all.

Underclocking has somewhat to do with it.
The more the processing power - The faster things load - Including Data from external servers (The faster the download and processing is)
If however there is not as much processing power to use, everything is a bit slower, and that's why you can't hook up Windows 95/98/99/NT PC to a DSL which as a higher downstream than 3.000 kb/s, it just can't use the power that's there
That's why I wrote, that he may have underclocked too far

Its not underclocked..where i used to get h+ now i get e... can you suggest me a good modem?

Go to the Modem thread you will find it ion the basics sticky and try them all .
Modems vary by network and area .

Some people use different models with their ROMs, best idea would be to flash the stock modem
The only thing I've noticed regarding download speeds is that no matter how fast my data connection is, Google Play will only download at 200kb/s as if its being throttled by google. Wifi isn't an issue. Anyways, I get good data speeds in using the ELKC modem but I have no idea what Three network your on

Meh I dunno then, just did a speed test and was downloading at 900+kb/s, downloaded the cerberus.apk as a test and pulled 1.1mb/s, updated youtube on the play store..........200kb/s foolishness lol
Hey guys!
Just found an app on google play store through which we can use wifi direct on our phone!
WiFi Direct enables two WiFi powered devices to transfer files at amazing speeds.
Like NFC Wifi Direct can send and recieve large files within minutes!
I have practically seen a friend of mine sending 700+ mb of data in less than 2 minutes from his Galaxy S3 to S2
Wifi direct was introduced in the jellybean updates on S2 and S3

With this application(>600kb) we can use the service on our sgy
