Thx

The first method doubled my speeds and gave me 25% of the ping.
[Motorola Photon 4G] tonyio:
removing proxys solved my shoutcast radio streaming problem
[Motorola Photon 4G] androidworkz:
Thanks for the tip. Increased from 1.3mbps/384kbps to 1.8-1.9mbps/600-800kbps

Will try the MLS trick next
[Motorola Photon 4G] my2cents:
Dang dude. Share some of that love. I wish i got 1.3 over wifi. LOL.
[Motorola Photon 4G] pzztgotbagz:
If im not mistaken i think this breaks the sprint apps from working ie. sprint tv and sprint music.
[Motorola Photon 4G] abrcrmdl23:
No it doesn't mine all work fine never better
[Motorola Photon 4G] my2cents:
I wonder if the GPS chip is interfering with 3G. It might be a complete fluke, but i shut off my GPS and my data speeds are nearly twice as good. Setting the phone to Sprint only or automatic seemed to help too, but it did not seem to completely solve the problem. I always had my GPS on, so I wonder if it has anything to do with the 3G service.

Does anyone have terrible 3G speeds and NEVER have the GPS on?
[Motorola Photon 4G] mikel719:
What should I tell sprint if they ask me why I need my msl?

Edit: called and got it on the first try.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Coaltrain:
This works! Went from 423kbps, now up to 689kbps. Thanks for the tip!
[Motorola Photon 4G] vmbgap:
What did you ask/say to them?
[Motorola Photon 4G] jokersax11:
Tell sprint you always like keeping the msl before applying updates, so you can program your phone if need be. I also ask for your mid, mdn, esn. Make it look legit.
[Motorola Photon 4G] scuzzy19:
I removed my sim from my card and tried to set it to any network and it asked for a sim card and wouldn't allow me to change it. weird?
[Motorola Photon 4G] ithink2020:
I called today. Said I was an Android Dev and got it without any hesitation.

UPDATE/Help: So I tried the MSL Trick, but when I follow the steps above, I do not see an option for multimedia... I only have the option to edit the MIN and MDN. I'm I doing something wrong or what?

Thanks all!

Anyone in the So Cal area try this 3G fix to see if it improved their 3G speeds?
[Motorola Photon 4G] fnztakedown:
Im seeing some better speeds where im at went from.03 to 1.5 down
[Motorola Photon 4G] daveb101:
Ivan only edit the min and mhz number also. ..... help?

Thanks

[Motorola Photon 4G] daveb101:
Sorry I can only edit the MIN and MND also...
[Motorola Photon 4G] daveb101:
Bump for an answer please :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] daveb101:
I was able to find out how to do this elsewhere. Enter ##3282# then the options are available. goto multimedia and make the changes, you just need your msl to authorize the changes
[Motorola Photon 4G] Airwolf79:
Are most people here using speedtest.net to get their speeds? I get really low 3g speeds on that app. With qip speedtest I'm showing over 1mb/s while speedtest.net shows less than .3
[Motorola Photon 4G] Damanis1:
Funny i did this when i first got phone not knowing it would do this. I was looking threw the setting and thought automatic would be better no? Guess i was right lmfao
[Motorola Photon 4G] thegameksk:
It doesnt let me switch to auto. It says I need an sim card.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ArchangelRenzoku:
I AM EXTREMELY PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW!!! THIS WAS STUPID, SO WHY DID IT WOOOOORK? lol... Doubled my speeds :(
[Motorola Photon 4G] ArchangelRenzoku:
Ya I did this and even my apps like facebook and games are running faster. Web browsing speed iswaaaaay up and this just made me generally enjoy this phone alittle more. thanks!
[Motorola Photon 4G] kennypow3rs:
Did I do this right? Do we swap out both addresses?
[Motorola Photon 4G] ArchangelRenzoku:
That's how I did it and it's been working wonders all day! I thought it was the nearby tower being ****ty...
[Motorola Photon 4G] Android 17:
Coming from the EVO 4G, there was a similar fix, however, if you switched to an AOSP rom like CM7, it would not work and it could not be done on CM7, would I right to assume it would be the same with the Photon?

Could this only be usable on a stock-based rom?
[Motorola Photon 4G] bricky23:
On cm7 you can change it in the build.prop check the thread, it tells how.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Android 17:
I couldn't find the info, but messing around with my build.prop, I can't find any http references.
[Motorola Photon 4G] photonauto:
I am from Istanbul / Turkiye. I am on GSM network.

I have tried many times switching from automatic to Cdma and vice versa, I can clearly say that 3G speed increased %25. I get 3M in CDMA mode and 4M in automatic mode.

Hard to believe but strangely true.
[Motorola Photon 4G] pkomarnicki:
The top four values shown in the screenshot are what you need to change in build.prop. I used the root file browser in ROM toolbox.
[Motorola Photon 4G] spleef:
not sure if its been mentioned or common knowledge but if you dont have a sim card inserted try to switch to automatic pops a message saying you cant then puts you back on any cdma. also ive tried the msl edits havent noticed any changes or increases or decreases,are any of you using the 3g tweaks from zep?
[Motorola Photon 4G] chromiumleaf:
I switched that setting from 'Any CDMA' to 'Automatic' and then rebooted, but my phone wouldn't come back on afterward....I had to battery pull for 30 sec. after switching this to get my phone to reboot.

However, after making the switch I have noticed faster web speeds and faster downloads from the Market. FYI I'm in the Houston TX area.

OP - thanks for sharing.

EDIT: Apparently for some this change doesn't stick permanently? I just now noticed that my phone is back on 'Any CDMA' even though I didn't change it back to this myself. Perhaps it reverted back after another reboot.
[Motorola Photon 4G] 6bowmans:
I ran tests in two different areas. One at work with a weak 3G signal, and one outside with a full signal. I ran 4 speed tests (speedtest.net) at each location with three different configurations: stock, network mode to "Automatic", and automatic with changes to the multimedia settings.

Average results:

Stock 240/74

Automatic 611/117

Automatic w/multimedia changes 1202/187

HUGE improvements. Thanks to Bandage and detcup4evr!
[Motorola Photon 4G] Harry_Spade:
You know what its all network, i am here in nyc right now and on 3g my speeds are 2.24mbps down, 1.2mbps up, this is insane, i usually get 500kbps down and 600kbps up
[Motorola Photon 4G] WHYDavid:
This lowered my download speeds and increased my upload speed. I wrote "everything" down before I changed it so I could change it back...but somehow "everything" did not include the HTTP-PD Address. :( Does anyone know what the stock value of that should be???
[Motorola Photon 4G] hdmunger:
from my notes:

5. Set the ports to 0 (was rtsp - 554, http-PD - 8085)

6. Set the addresses to 0.0.0.0 (was rtsp - rtsp.vog.sprintpcs.com, http-PD - pd.vog.sprintpcs.com)
[Motorola Photon 4G] WHYDavid:
Thanks! I'll remember to double check my notes before changing anything in the future... :)
[Motorola Photon 4G] WHYDavid:
I retried the changes to remove the sprint proxies. The first time I tried, I didn't reboot...DUH!

After doing it again AND rebooting, I'm seeing my download speeds are about triple and upload is about double.

NICE!!! :D
[Motorola Photon 4G] strudel.chris:
I tried removing my Sprint proxies and rebooted.

My speeds are sort of slow, noticeably slower than I was able to get previously.

So, I put the proxies back in, rebooted, and..... Speeds are still noticeably slower than usual.

I was hoping for a bit of an increase in speed, but it looks like there may be reception/traffic issues in my area.

I'll have to give this a try another day. Or at home, where i'll presumably be on a different cell tower.

Now...if they would just roll out 4g in my area (Rochester, MN) I'd be happy as a clam. There is some 'unofficial' 4g access if I'm outdoors and close to downtown, but no luck indoors.
[Motorola Photon 4G] strudel.chris:
Nevermind.... I think it may have been a traffic issue that day.

I ran speedtest a few times this morning, and my speeds are back to normal.

It's hard for me to tell if removing the Sprint proxies gave an increase in 3g speed, though.

:confused:

I guess like the thread title says, YMMV.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Briang92205:
Changing proxies bumped me up from .48 Mbps using just automatic network to .59 down and from .39 to .42 up.

Ping went from and average of 212 to 145.

Unfortunately I can't run both together.
[Motorola Photon 4G] partycove:
Did not work I'm my area
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
I'm almost jealous of you Photon guys. I have the Electrify, and I only have the options Global, CDMA, and GSM/UMTS. No "Automatic". I haven't run SpeedTest in a while, but I believe I got around 1 megabit downstream, so it's not too bad to start with. Would I see an improvement switching to Global?

I need to tell my brother about this. He has a Photon through Sprint, and he never uses Wifi because he's on an unlimited plan and doesn't see the point, even though Wifi is faster than 3G (I don't think he has 4G where he lives).
[Motorola Photon 4G] TheChronicDroid:
Heres a couple changes in ##DATA# you can do for better 3g/4g speeds and better 4g connectivity

In your data profile, turn off your reverse tunneling, in wiimax change "Entry CINR (db)" to 2 or 4, this changes the required signal strength to connect to 4g
[Motorola Photon 4G] tk161900:
Removing proxies didnt work.

Removing the proxies and changing the port addresses didnt do anything. In fact i think they made have even made things worse. As soon as i changed them back my speeds went back to normal. Changing from Any CDMA to automatic only works sometimes. Sometimes i get better speeds on Any CDMA vs Automatic and Vise Versa. And when calling sprint to get my MSL they asked twice why i needed it. So im sure i seemed very suspicious.
[Motorola Photon 4G] srkelley:
Just tell Sprint that you're a developer. I did that a couple of weeks ago and they gave it to me without hesitation. I am technically a registered developer, I'm just not developing anything or have released anything. :P

No, they don't ask for proof. Honestly I'm still new to a lot of the details of phones myself. If I read and understand it right, MSL can allow for changing how your phone acts on the network (confirmed personally and this whole thread in is proof) and it may also be able to allow you to make changes to the esn or something else. (not sure, this phone has a SIM and other things but I am lost on this part).
[Motorola Photon 4G] ArchangelRenzoku:
I'm almost starting to think that Sprint has been changing things around their network. Suddenly I can't tether on 4G anymore, also removing my proxies kinda seems to make things worse as well.

Can anyone confirm this?
[Motorola Photon 4G] tk161900:
Yeah removing the proxies definitely made my speeds horrible. Like half the speed of smell. I put them back after a bit my speeds returned to normal. Still slow but better than the dial speeds I was getting. As for the tethering I haven't tested yet.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ArchangelRenzoku:
Anyone got the default settings for the "multimedia" dialer menu?
[Motorola Photon 4G] tk161900:
Here ya go.

http://db.tt/TjBKunCO
[Motorola Photon 4G] Fast2learn:
what about GSM

what about GSM photon, the 3G speed is too slow and it's even seems to be 2G?

so, it very fast, hase very much iphone icons, but that`s all. I think that the big improvement is on speed use. I recomended for that.
[Desire Android Development] exorcist26:
thanks for comments :)
[Desire Android Development] jjdoctor:
Nice boot animation.. very different... Good stable and fast but lacks addons... tried trackpad2wake and got boot loop...

please add some addons...
[Desire Android Development] Hypercaine:
Just flashed the stock hboot version. I can't complete the setup. Force close on just about everything. Maybe i did something wrong. Will try again.

After reformatting my memory card and reflashing (again) stock hboot, the same problem occurs. Force close on setup, radio, messaging, phone... I'm using 2GB ext4.
[Desire Android Development] exorcist26:
Sory ı forgot give sd card partitions. you must have xgb fat32+1 gb ext3.
[Desire Android Development] Hypercaine:
Thanks. Works perfectly :) Looks quite nice. Smooth and fast :)
[Desire Android Development] rayiskon:
don't u think 2GB for an ext partition is an overkill ? :)

@exorcist26 very nice work , credits for bringing a new idea :)
[Desire Android Development] ironjon:
Wow it looks very nice the expresso theme
[Desire Android Development] jigners:
ok here is my observation,

partitioned my sdcard fat32 followed by ext3 512mb created using 4EXTRecovery

loving the speed and transition animation (fastest ROM Ive tested so far,

considering its only the last two months since I made the transition from HTC HD2

to HTC Desire);)

drawbacks:

1 facebook for HTC sense is missing (friendstream only has flicker link) I need that so bad:o

2. also facebook for Android for some strange reason, dont have the option to sync

with contacts? or has the latest version of it has removed this.

3. need to have more icons (or at least a tutorial to change these)

I understand this is only your first release?:):cool:

anyway, good luck and hoping for a gradual "evolution to perfection" ROM:cool:

thanks:):)
[Desire Android Development] Hypercaine:
Nah :P With a class 10 memory card it might be unnecessary but, still, i like that layout :)

@exorcist26 I agree that facebook for htc sense is necessary. Otherwise, the rom is great. Fast and stable. and looks good :)
[Desire Android Development] exorcist26:
ok ı will add htc facebook and twitter widgets v4 ;) And ım trying add crt tv animation and trackpad to unlock. Coming soon ;)
[Desire Android Development] Hypercaine:
Cool man, keep up the good work :) I'm staying on this rom, definitely :)
[Desire Android Development] rayiskon:
maybe it would be better if u can provide the zips as addons so each one flashes the addon he wants , i personally would prefer trackpad 2 wake coz i had bad experience with t2unlock with the phone unlocking in my pocket :)

one more thing i'd like to mention that i faced today, while trying to open an app (facebook in my case) the phone froze for a few seconds and then restarted by itself, when it logged into sense all apps on ext where deleted (i have 1GB ext3) , further more apps in data/apps (google maps, voice, street etc..) also got deleted, so i extracted them from the zip and had to push them maually...i managed to restore everything, don't know really what happened and what caused this. i also got 2 reboots while shooting photos with the cam , but from my experience with other GB roms it's a standard issue...

Anyways i'm enjoying the flavor of ur rom, nice font, animations, icons and colors, really it looks alive :) keep up the nice work ;)
[Desire Android Development] Alex-V:
thx for using my theme :) :)

with kind regards..Alex

Will V3 work on S-Off and Stock Boot Desire? Is there any A2SD or A2SD+?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slikk76:
There used to be an option to choose: android, desktop (user agent). its gone.... anyway to get that back??

Also, the music widget, its there when i use the stock SE launcher but when i use go launcher or any other launcher, there is no music widget in my widget options?? how do i get that back without using stock SE launcher?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slikk76:
nobody has an idea?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hzu:
That's the browser's problem. I don't think the option was there on 2.1 too, I only get that option with Cyanogen ROMs.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharms115:
I dont think the default browser supports changing user agents. Try downloading a browser like dolphin browser mini, or Opera.

Also the SE music widget and other SE widgets are Sony launcher specific, meaning that they will not work with other launchers (kind of like the Go widgets).
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] pinakaeus:
I'm planning to install TrueLeftys gingerbread rom but I love the CRT screen off animation and the AOSP lockscreen, can someone help me find flashable zips of those? Thanks :D
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
If you rename the lockscreen.apk to lockscreen.apk.bak and reboot you should have AOSP lockscreen. That's how I did it on my Incredible one.

I'm sure if you email a dev they can make you a flashable.zip to enable screen on/off.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] pinakaeus:
Oh cool, I'll try emailing a dev, also can I rename for the AOSP lockscreen using my phone?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
crt off is a heavy mod in services (unlike 1 change in aosp/blur/tw/etc)

i think some of the sense 3 roms have it built in, but if you are running stock those service.jars may not work for you as the sense 3 roms are system ports of other phones
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] shoman24v:
Renaming the HTC lockscreen should default to AOSP.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] beenz:
I wonder why HTC decided to remove the CRT animation. IMO its the coolest thing in GB. Especially with Sense, where the notification bar is the same as Froyo.

So is there no way to add the CRT animation to a rooted sense rom? I have to run gingersense, as the current CM7 builds have too many audio issues. I'm on call a lot and not being able to hear people or use a headset is a crippling problem. I'd love to have that screen animation back, though.
