[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Try testing at an off-peak time... I'm surprised you have full HSPA+ service in a rural area.

FYI all of our Gingerbread ROMs are known for poor data performance. One of the top three known issues with UXKG3. However if Froyo (esp. stock) is also problematic - it's likely that your area doesn't actually have HSPA+ service deployed yet.

Don't believe lowly store reps. If they had more of a clue they wouldn't be working in a retail store...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] joenuts83:
On stock froyo I was getting 3-5 dl and maxed at a little over 12, then when I went to gingerbread im getting 4-6 but capped at about 9-10. My overall speeds are way faster, but my max is a little less, I'm guessing it has to do with the launch of a bunch of new 4g devices and more users are on the network. Other than that I'm happy with my infuse running GTGs Infused 2.2.3.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Simba501:
The Infuse is the fastest device I've ever seen. Typically, I see devices in my area get 1-3 mbps down and .7-1 mbps up. Without fail, the Infuse gets triple, sometimes quadruple that (uploads generally the same).
[Samsung Infuse 4G] strychninetwitch:
My friend's atrix only got around 100Kbps higher when we ran speedtest at the same time. Guess it's crap HSPA+ out here, though it IS HSPA+.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Sarius24:
On stock rogers gingerbread 2.3.3, I am getting speeds of like 8mbps dl pretty good for me I guess. I wish I can get the full 21mbps tho.....is that even possible?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] milan03:
I'm maxing out 16QAM here in NYC at 14.4mbps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYkeSJH5uSM 64QAM is not active so infuse is crippled down to 14.4mbps, even though it's capable of 21mbps.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] s1rrah:
I'm using the stock OS on my rooted infuse. With the free Wifi Tether app, I consistently see between 4 & 14m down. Smokes my home DSL connection for sure. Perhaps it's simply geography and existing infrastructure as others have mentioned. Not at all disappointed, personally ... pretty dang snappy here in Houston.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] shansmi:
Go to a corporate store which will have live phones. Run the speed test there on all their devices and ensure your device gets similar results. Make sure WiFi is not turned on. The speeds will vary market to market. In DFW I have hit 12mbps DS and have never broken 1.1mbps US. On other "devices" I have seen better rates that top FiOS.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] strychninetwitch:
Will AT&T ever enable 64QAM? Or are they all orgasmic over their (probably crap) LTE and will never touch their old technology again?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Longcat14:
They love LTE, but they won't drop HSPA+ for the reason if that if your not in a LTE area, once you drop back down to HSPA+, you shouldn't see a big speed decrease (which is why they should turn on 64QAM soon).

[Samsung Infuse 4G] MikeyMike01:
The Infuse is a 3G device, any way you slice it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] scyld:
If only it acted like the 3G device that it is... I might get faster download speeds :p
[Samsung Infuse 4G] AJerman:
Raleigh has HSPA+ now! Too bad it cuts off RIGHT where I live, and RIGHT where I work!

If I may ask, what makes you certain it is 4G? The coverage map shows only Minneapolis and surrounding areas have 4G service in Minnesota right now. I dunno where you are in Minnesota, but the large majority of the state isn't covered in 4G service yet. You definitely have HSPA+ since I think all of AT&T's towers are upgraded to HSPA+ by now, but that doesn't mean your area has the "enhanced backhaul" to actually give you the speeds.

DO NOT FOLLOW THIS GUIDE IF YOU ARE S-ON

​

Non of this is my own work, im just putting it all together for others to see.

all credits go to

gdavies08

33poison

Raskal

Firstly you require s-off.

to find out if you already have this.

trun off your phone

whip out battery

reinsert battery

hold down the volume key and press power button.

this screen appears

at the top where its says s-on or s-off.

to unlock this you will need at present an XTC Clip from Raskal from XTC Clip Website owned by Raskal

Instructions on how to use this were found by gdavies08 hereXTC Clip Instructions

Next onto the rooting.

This information was provided by 33poison

Text & Pics taken from this post Here!!

Non-offical recovery, for flashing only.

version: 4.0.1.4

language: English

Editor: Qiu Long (from xda.cn)

Preparation:

1. Salsa

2. must s-off

3. download PH11IMG.zip and root.zip, save in root of your sd card

PH11IMG.zip

Root.zip

Start recovery:

1. Shut off the phone, then push volume low and power enter into Hboot

2. Get into Hboot, will show a message if need update or not. choose yes or no. 3. Push volume up start flash

4. According to instruction reboot then finish recovery.

Start root (for this step please make sure your phone is already flashed receovery):

1. Shut off the phone, then push volume low and power enter into Hboot

2. By using volume control choose recovery and enter into recovery

3. By using volume control choose install zip from sdcard

4. Then choose zip from sdcard then find the location you savied root.zip file.

5. Find root.zip in your sdcard

6. Confirm one more time yes, install root.zip

7. Flashing start

8. Finished flash will show the screen as below

9. Choose Go Back, then reboot. Root is done.

Note:

When confirm a selection, it's better use camera button then power.

This really does work. i was able to root my handset within 5 mins total. Once you have rooted via this process, the root.zip file contains busy-box & superuser and gets pre installed. This is not temp, this is Permanent root.

Myself and gdavies have successfully done this and am sure we can help in anyway!

[HTC Salsa] crest_delta:
can we get the S-OFF without XTC ???

Hi ,

Firstly thanks for this wonderful guide that you have compiled :)

as of now my device (purchased in INDIA) has a S-ON as you have mentioned that the S-OFF is possible only using the 'XTC' chip which getting here locally is next to impossible , is there any possibility that in future we my be able to S-OFF our SALSA without the XTC chip ..

was going thru the WWW and I found this :

http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/forever

will the unrevoked (or a similar ) software be available for the SALSA users.

Thanks!!

P.S Mods may remove the link if it violates the policies of the forum :p

Guys I need some more help/links to move all(or most ) of my Apps to SD card

1. I have now S-OFF my HTC salsa , previously it was S-ON had to get the same locally in Mumbai it was done via the XTC Clip

2.Have root my phone ( have the superuser app on my screen )

So what shall be the next step to move the apps to SD , I have read several thread and all I can conclude that now I shall need to format my SD card ( with ext 2/3 or something) so that the apps I install on my phone consider my SD card as internal memory and install the same on the ext partition.But I need to know the exact procedure to do the same , I could not find it any where on the Salsa forum...

pls help me what should be my next step to move my apps to SD ...I am already using the APP2SD pro but it cannot move the apps like FAcebook/Whats App and other to SD , it moves only those apps which can be moved to SD even without the software !!
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
Right, what I did was install links2sd. I formatted 500mb of my 2gb SD card onto ext2 this can be done using mini partioner program of the net. Once created start your phone as normal and open links2sd. It will ask I select what ext u have. Follow instructions that follow on app. This will now enable u to move stuff easier. As for Facebook, Google maps voice dialer, the biggest system eater, get an app that removes or uninstalls system apps. In links to SD there's options to forever move/install to SD. Reinstall the system apps again and there u have it. More internal memory. I also use app2 SD enabler for other apps forcing them to SD. It gets annoying setting it up but truley well worth the time. I use rom toolbox from the market to manually okay with settings including wiping of data and caches. So far this is the better way I've seen. For this model to gain that all important space we need.

[HTC Salsa] crest_delta:
Hi ,

I tried as you informed but I still cant get the apps to SD in fact my phone does not even recognize the partition .. I had formatted my Card as 512m to ext/2 & balance as FAT32..

Could you pls help me with a link or a step by step guide to move /install my programs to my SD Card.... I need it so desperately !! thanks

EDIT: Okay no can successfully move or install the apps to the ext 3: pls refer the youtube link

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8G94qerkSX4

you may or may not create the SWAP partition as for what I understand its only needed as a page file as in MS Windows :) I havent created the SWAP partiton as it also requires a SD Faster Card

But size shown on to the android : " ie. in manage apps " where we have tabs as 1downloaded , 2All,3 on SD Card & 4 Running ", on the internal storage below its shows 75Mb free , I was expecting it shall show the entire EXT3 Pattion as free ??meaning it woud show internal memory as say 512mb in my case (ext was 512mb )

Just for the information i have successfully moved the apps like facebook and whats app to and the memory is now free

Special thanks to BigBearEvo :)
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
As long as the apps in the system can be got from the market, uninstall them and reinstall on SD. Nps glad I could help!
[HTC Salsa] daze62:
Purchased XTC Clip and successfully have Salsa S-off. Followed instructions to root phone too many times to count with no success. Superuser force closes every time.

Does PH11IMG.zip need to be deleted before starting up recovery to prevent it continually looping on Hboot? Or is something else going wrong, such as PH11IMG.zip not installing properly?
[HTC Salsa] daze62:
Ok. I used the RUU from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18634857&postcount=7 and got root access. Messy work around and my daughter is now begging for the facebook button to be reassigned, but at least link2sd is working.

I successfully rooted and s-offed my Wildfire last year. Now, I have just bought a Salsa. The phone is already unlocked to use any SIM. But, like many people, I desire more internal memory.

I am pulling out, what hair I have left, trying a get Windows Command Prompt to recognize C:\Android to enable me to install a Recovery onto my phone.

But all I keep getting is C:\Android is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I've researched this problem on Google, there are suggestions, but none seem to make any difference. I've tried this on my Windows 7 laptop and my Windows XP desktop, without success.

I would appreciate very much, any assistance you can offer.

Have you tired manually updating hboot in htcdev then trying xtc clip? I had many attempts using that piece of kit took several attempts to do it. Is it an original one? I got given mine by raskal the maker over a yr ago as a tester.

The device was ordered from China, and I couldn't found here specific forum for the device so I asked.
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
Re: HTC Salsa Instructions on Rooting/Unlocking S-OFF only!

Ahhhh....the Chinese cousin. Ok. Its the same....but. some Chinese handsets are pre unlocked. Before I proceed with how u want to go forward. I would need the info from your hboot menu.

To do this.

Remove battery.

Wait 5 secs

Insert battery.

While holding the volume down key.

Press power button.

New menu with details at top will show. List everything it says or get a photo.

Unlocking and rooting is the same with all salsas but depending on the handset varies the method.

Ready to help when u are.

Hi,

The past few days my X10 is not charging very well.. It turns to 100% and if I look to it the next morning it is about 15%. And now it doesn't charge to 100%. It's very annoying now.

What can I do?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jimboi2008:
Bro! i think its a battery problem - if your battery level is let say 15% (or in status red) try this, take out the battery plug your x10 to the charger (while battery is taken out) and then while you have your x10 plugged in to the charger press and hold the power/sleep button youll feel it vibrate after the vibration put the battery back in, then your phone will boot up (if it did not boot up just turn it on your self) if your battery is faulty you should see the battery in 75-90% if this is the case you need to replace your battery it happend to me 2 weeks ago im experiencing reboots while using the phone with charger but then i noticed the battery life is so short like literaly if im at 100 then after playing 1 single game (angrybirds) for10mins on it it'll drop immediately to 50.

Hey, Evo4Eva might not have the most polite way of expressing his opinion, but he does have a point!

I don't know how webOS is on a phone, but on a tablet it really is awful. It's immature, unpolished and clearly unfinished. It's actually so bad, that it made a tablet with excellent hardware, like the Touchpad, god awfully slow.

You can browse faster on an old HTC Desire than on a Touchpad. And that really says something, considering the fast dualcore Snapdragon CPU that thing has.
