[Samsung Infuse 4G] SSJ_Gomike:
I have tried all kinds of different settings and this is what worked for me and I am merely sharing. Day 2 and I am still seeing double my regular download speeds. If you don't think it'll work for you.... Don't try it. It's working for me and others so what is the harm in trying it?

[Samsung Infuse 4G] SSJ_Gomike:
This wouldn't be a "tweak" if I used the correct values would it?

I know what the correct values are, I had them in my build.prop prior to my changing them and I still got piss poor speeds..... So I tried something different and its working for me.

From what I can see it works better for those that are not in hspa+ areas..

My reason for changing the values to higher categories unsupported by the Infuse is to force the phone to look for the better signal and fall back on the CORRECT signal when not found....

Gtg.... I know you are not in a hspa+ area, try them as is and just see what it does for you...

[Samsung Infuse 4G] slider2828:
Truthfully, I just tried it and it does seem to have some affect on network speeds. I agree don't hate on someone that is sharing something. It takes like 5 minutes to edit your build.prop and 1 sec to undo.... try and run with it....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] AJerman:
See, this isn't about hating on someone, it's about the fact that I've done testing to prove that none of these values (well, I've tested ro.ril.hsxpa, ro.ril.hsupa.category, ro.ril.hsdpa.category, and ro.ril.grpsclass, not the others) make any difference at all. You can get wildly varying speeds from one test to the next, even if you are at the same place with theoretically the same signal. However, when I change to values to something that should LIMIT the speed, it does not. Also, opening the RIL libs in a hex editor gives me no matches for strings like "hsxpa", whereas there are matches in an HTC RIL, a manufacturer that DOES use these values.

These values had no effect on the SGS, and the Infuse is a very similar phone, so as long as I've had this phone I've had doubts that these values actually changed anything, and this morning's testing proved they don't to me. I can test and get 1.5 Mbps, then reboot without changing anything at all, and get a 3 Mbps. But if I disable HSUPA or HSPA entirely by changing the ro.ril.hsxpa value to 1 or 0, I should see SLOWER speeds which is not happening.

I'm absolutely not trying to be disrespectful or anything, but you're telling people to change values on their phone, and I feel like you haven't done the research or know what they affect well enough to do that. I can't tell you 100% that I'm right about this, partly because we don't and never will have the RIL or modem code, but I feel confident enough to say that these values have absolutely no effect on our phone. I have changed all of my values to 1 and used it all day with no difference than how it ran yesterday. I already got the speeds you are now getting with your mods, prior to having any mods like that, so it's not like any of these mods unlocked something that was previously locked and slowing people down. If that was the case it would affect everyone.

If you can prove in some way other than just saying your speed got faster, then I'm all ears (... or rather eyes?). But speeds fluctuate too much for that. I can give my proof by showing that the phone is still running HSPA+ after setting hsxpa to 0, regardless of speed. Otherwise, if people are satisfied by placebo, then carry on.

Edit: After typing this and leaving the server room at work (because I have almost no signal in there), I did another speed test, all settings still at 1, and got the fastest speed I've ever seen on this phone, about 4.2/1 Mbps, and I'm in a non-"enhanced backhaul" area, so take from that what you will.

re: editing numbers

I have been watching and reading this thread now since it was first started and all I can

say is that if nothing else it has been an learning adventure for many people :)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
with fluctuating network loads it can be pretty easy to convince yourself of cause and effect. same goes for battery life and "lag". ill wait on entropy and rilspy testing to form an oppinion on this.

I have seen 1mbps speeds and 5mbps speed back to back. there are just too many factors. some days the network just works better than others.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
+1 dude. I wish everyone was this considerate and let people try out experimenting.

I understand what u say. And after comparing speeds to different towers at different times of day, I still find the difference between speeds with old values and new values. I did atleast 30 speeds tests to confirm the same works well on my phone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tjy8tim:
reading this thread is funny.

I don't understand why there are people spending time trying to prove why the OP's "tweak" doesn't work. Often times experiments will disapprove theories, and in this case, it seems like statistics shows there are a general trend of improvements....

I personally find speedtest.net really inaccurate by itself anyway. It tested ~200kb/s download (in 10 different tests) while I actually got ~1000kb/s (pretty fast...for a phone IMO) download when downloading steam games tethered...all the tests and tethering is all conducted in the same 12x12 feet room.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] S1XXV:
I have modified my build.prop like in the op. I have noticed a slight change at times. Reached slightly over 4 MB down never had that before. Up was about the same as always.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Misterjunky:
re: testing

Have you heard of "Traffic Conjestion" when sometimes there are more cars on the road at the same time than other times?

(so sometimes you can drive faster than other times even on the same street)

Also since we are speaking of a "Wireless Connection" even the atmosphere has influence on wireless

communications which can and does have a direct effect on our wireless communicatons speed.

(sun spots also have a direct effect on wireless communications too)

These things can only be tested accurately in electronic laboratories.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tjy8tim:
Well, sure, if you are speaking a delta change in a atmosphere condition and traffic condition that is different between 1AM and 1PM, then I'll agree with you that the conditions can be very different.

However, when 10 test and the tether test is done within 15 minutes 3am in the morning, I find the data very convincing. Unless you are telling me the atmosphere and traffic condition drastically changed in the 30 seconds I switch to tether test, then I don't know what to say to you.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] patrick_1:
Yeah it's tough to gauge what's what....I've been bouncing from crappy to speedy. Was fun testing, no matter what's fact and what's fiction! I've learned a few more fun facts about the build.prop....
[Samsung Infuse 4G] 02ranger:
OK, I finally got around to making theses changes to my build.prop. I just flashed Serendipity VII tonight and when I went to make the changes I noticed that almost everything here was already in S7. I don't remember much of it being in any other ROM I've flashed, counting Infused 2.1.0, SensatioN, Darky's ROM, and CM7. I think there are a few others I've flashed, but I can't remember off hand what they were. Specifically, I don't remember seeing the hep or a53 lines before. So I was wondering, did Mikey write the build.prop for S7 on his own (or add these values on his own) or did it come from someplace else? Are these values in the other ROMs' build.prop files and I just missed them? The only differences in these values and what was in S7 were the following:

(This is how they were set in S7)

ro.ril.hsxpa.category=2

ro.ril.hsdpa.category=14

ro.ril.hsupa.category=6

Again, thanks for posting these, SSJ_Gomike. I still don't know what hsxpa=3 is, but I'm gonna give it a whirl and see what it does. I'm in a non-4G area, BTW.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Simple. Devs hate having build.prop cluttered with crap that doesn't actually do anything. Especially when people start asking for these tweaks to get integrated into ROMs/kernels. It leads to debugging being difficult and it becomes hard to tell what actually improves things and what's just crap sitting in the file.

As an example of a "tweak" that LinuxBozo and I held back because we are cautious and don't put things in unless we fully understand them:

https://github.com/netarchy/infuse4g-sources/commit/8a925155a5405ec9202ba17bbb30ce4293f66c0f - We weren't sure about this, it could have had serious negative reliability impacts and we didn't have specific positive performance impact documentation

Hey look - good thing we didn't integrate it:

https://github.com/netarchy/nexus-s/issues/1
[Samsung Infuse 4G] snoopdaclown:
I did that to my build.prop and haven't noticed any changes and I'm in a non 4g area and wont have the dual network till 2012. It'll be nice going from 4g to hspa+ instead of dropping to 3g but no difference with this at all...

So I don't know what to go by for the speeds. I'm usually always on wifi or somewhere where I can connect to wifi so I'm not to worried about this ****. So I'm just gonna leave it at 2,14,6 since those are the right settings

[Samsung Infuse 4G] dufrenbk:
I was supposed to post this days ago and it completely slipped my mind...

My wife and I both have and Infuse. We were sitting down waiting for our food to be brought to us at Outback so I decided to see what speeds she gets. I have my Infuse with everything done to it (Infused 2.0.2, bedwa's infusion kernel, dynamicram's tweaks, the tweaks in this thread, u know the works). Her Infuse is completely stock.

I opened speedtest and had them running at the same time, 6 inches apart. I got from high 3mb/s to mid-high 4mb/s. She got over 6mb/s.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] snoopdaclown:
@dufrenbk, go in to your wifes build.prop and copy down those parts. That can help solve alot of problems and what modem her infuse has.. would appreciate the info..

[Samsung Infuse 4G] diablo009:
I have to agree with dufrenbk here. When my infuse was stock, I got similar speeds, even topping upto 11 Mbps down. But ever since I moved off stock, my speeds have become more like what I used to get on Captivate -- 2-3 Mbps down, rarely touching 4.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] THE festivedonkey:
Hey guys, first off I will admit that I am a noob when it comes to editing any builds and such. I am very familiar with flashing and operating Android in general. I am a veteran of a couple android devices (Motorola Backf*ck w/ cm7 installed and our lovely Infuse), but I have never messed with the build.prop or other system files before. So here is my probably VERY noob process/problem/question:

Process: Using root explorer, I found the system folder and then the build.prop system file, and opened it with the text editor. I found the first two lines of the text that the post says to change, so I changed those, and then added the rest since it wasn't in the file. Once I was finished, I saved and got a pop-up saying "the original file was saved to build.prop.bak" (or something very close to that).

Problem: Like the post says to do, I restarted my phone twice so that the changes would stick, but when I went back to look at the build.prop file again, none of the changes that I made were there.

Question(s): What am I doing wrong? Is there a certain app I am supposed to be using to edit the build other than the text editor? Am I supposed to change it in a different way?

I am in an HSPDA area, but am only getting around 1-1.5 mbps down and around .5 up. It would be really helpful to get some better speeds!

Thanks to anyone that can help me!!!

you say in your post ...Will it hurt to try? No.

well it hurt.

couldnt boot after editing. but i always have my backups in clockworkmod.

i changed the existing settings to your new values.

and added the settings you listed that were not in my build.prop to begin with.

the only thing i did different was

#comment out some lines of text to note changes made.

upon reboot just looped.

i didnt think by editing build.prop that would stop phone from booting either.

maybe you have some advice?

Best FPS:

Best racing game:

Best platformer:

Best time killer:

Best Adventure:

Best overall:
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TLRtheory:
Best FPS: Brothers in Arms 2

Best Racing: Asphalt 6

Best Platformer: Tie between Cordy and Pixeline

Best Time Killer: Lumines

These games also put the Xperia PLAY controls to GREAT use, but did not fit in the genres above: Age of Zombies, Dungeon Hunter 2, Dead Space, AVATAR, BackStab, NFS: Hot Pursuit, Meganoid, Roboto, Muffin Knight, Sacred Odyssey, Samurai II: Vengeance, Spectral Souls, Spider Man, Star Battalion, Zenonia 1/2/3 and PewPew 2
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] eximperialdragon:
Best racer is Asphalt 6

Best platformer would be Cordy or Meganoid.

Best time waster would probably be Dungeon Defenders Second Wave or Dungeon Hunter 2. They take boatloads of time, lol. If you're meaning pick up and play games, I'd probably say Air Attack HD. It and ExZeus (not Xperia Play optimized) are currently my favorites.

Best FPS for me is a toss up between Nova 2 and Battlefield Bad Company 2.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Cat_On_Droid:
Assphalt , dead space and minecraft are all hardcore games for mobile
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] _terror_:

Best racing game? - Asphalt 6

Best platformer? - Super Mario Bros 3 (NES emulator)

Best time killer? - Trail x
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Geeve:
Best FPS: NOVA2

Best racing game: NFS Hot Pursuit (slighty better graphics and police)

Best platformer: Muffin Knight

Best time killer: Reckless Getaway

Best adventure game: Dungeon Hunter 2

Also add adventure type to your list.
