[Q] Xperia Z Ultra C6802 data speed on T-Mobile US - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

For the members running this phone on T-Mobile US. I was wondering what the maximum data speed you've been getting on it.

It varies from place to place. But most of the time I get good speeds to browse and watch YouTube videos. Don't know exactly what the speeds are.

At&t 4G

Would putting a 4G SIM in my flashed X10a improve upload and download speeds? Right now,when connected with PdaNet,phone is faster than typical standard DSL modem.
Thank you for the info.

Post your d/u speeds and we can compare.
On a good day I can get about 1.3d/.3u.
Tried using the 3.5g build.prop adjustments and it increased my down but decreased my up.
I was using PdaNet this past weekend and got pretty good download speeds. While connected, I went to www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ on the PC side. Picking the 'SAN FRANCISCO, CA' location, I was able to get between 2.5Mbps and 2.8Mbps. This was while I was in Davis, California.
Now I'm back at home in Riverside County, California and my download speed (picking Speakeasy's 'LOS ANGELES, CA' location) is around 1.2Mbps.
I have an AT&T X10 on Sony Ericsson generic world 2.1. I haven't made any build.prop changes that may affect my 3G/'3.5G'.
Upload speeds via speednet app are 810-2130kbps dl,622-1190kbps ul. Location off tower is here in Greenville,NY,north of me of Freehold. Catskill,NY speeds seem somewhat slower,possibly due to it being the county seat,and near NYS Thruway.

Via Open networks app;238-2631kbps dl,328-1238kbps upload. Will switching out to a 4G SIM improve data speeds? The phone is running HSPA,which is the next gen. for at&t. Now,I don't know what my speeds are for NYC,since the phone was problematic,and I did a soft reset via resetting back to all original settings. Would getting a 4G SIM help boost speeds down there?
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
Oh,I have network settings on auto,GSM/WCDMA preferred. So the "H" for HSPA shows up now,hence a BIG boost in speeds. Just want to know if swapping out SIM,I might get better speeds,especially in metro areas like NYC,NJ and Westchester.

Bit torrent on android

I have a d/l speed of about 20mbs on my sgs3 bit when I try and use bit torrent or utorrent to download it get next to nothing. I get decent connection on wifi but live in a village and only get 2mbs. Do you think my provider (ee uk) are limiting it? Or is there a way of making it faster that bit just can't see?
Thanks

Just to clarify I mean 20mbs on 3g and slow download on 3g

not sure if 100% accurate, but torrents should require more processing power which is what limits your data transfer. for example i usually get like 6-8MB/s on my laptop but if i set up my router as a download box (800MHz proc) i get max 1MB and often the router craches die to its inability to process the large volume of data fast enough. I think the same thing happens with your device also.

Walmart wireless plans...

Yeaup Im on the same price plan but changed to it the first day it was out ... So I get 5g high speed data + unlimited talk & text !!!
I switched to the new plan too but have you noticed that the 3g speeds have slowed down or is it just me?

Yes I noticed & called multiple times about it ... I used to get well over 10-12Mbps and sometimes up to over 21mbps ... but when i made the change .. the speed struggles to get past 900-1000 !!! I thought to my self maybe its the rom im using .. wind mobile rom with apps 2sd ... but i doubt it ... what is your high speed data limit ... i get 5gb ... you ???
I also have the 5 gb plan. Before the change, like you, I was getting speeds up to 10 mb now after the change I'm struggling to get 1 mb. Sometimes I'll get a little over 1 mb but it never hits 2 mb.Guess there's a catch to everything. Also I am running the stock jb so it's not your Rom.

Glad too know its not the rom .. in a way !!! I guess now we actually have 3g speeds ... lol ... Its good enough for what i do and at l can still tether to other devices .. So im not yoo mad about it .. plus with the faster speeds i used to have with only 1gb allotment .. im better off... I would used most of my data up doing speedtest !!!
I recommend straight talk. 45 for unlimited all. I don't know if they have the micro sim available now, but I cut mine. Speed is reliable and fast enough for daily use. There are many threads about ST TMO service on xda; search it.

I get a discount on the Wal-Mart Family Mobile cause I work at Sam's Club. The speed may seem slow but it's enough to do everyday things. I streamed music tonight at work and it didn't buffer any. I've also watched a couple of YouTube videos and it streams fine.

T-Mobile grandfather T-Zone on C6806

i currently using the $5.99 T-zone on my XPERIA S, i get HSDPA around 5Mbps download and i can tether with no limit... my monthly data usage is around 30GB.
if i get the XPERIA Z Ultra C6806 that have LTE band 4 will i able to get LTE on it using t-zone??
i tried using my current sim on my friends nexus 5, i get LTE signal but everytime i try to connect to internet it brings me to a sign in page on tmobile online, i try to sign in but the page take forever to load
the APN in the nexus 5 is already using "fast.tmobile"
i wonder will i get this problem if i get the C6806??
i juz want unlimited internet with unlimited tether while using tzone
anyone using tzone with Z ultra LTE in USA??
anyone??
It should work as long as you can specify Proxy in the APN, and you can. I really wish I had kept my $5.99 data. It was slow but usable. They still honor it.

I'd chat with a T-Mo technical support CSR about this, whilst absent mindedly telling them that your phone is the Xperia Z, (not Ultra) which they sell, and so must support.
