Im currently on the latest Miui 109090 and savaged-zen 2.0.2 cfs havs gb+ kernel. I noticed my 3g was horrible so decided to do a speed test and Im averaging around 250 ping, 150kbs upload and about 200kbs download. Why is my 3g so incredibly bad? is it sprint or my rom/kernel?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ncfastls1:
It's Sprint. My 3G has gotten worse but my 4G has taken an even bigger hit. I've also noticed more that I'll lose 3G and drop to 1X in an area I KNOW has 3G coverage, and sometimes it won't switch back unless I toggle the mobile data on and off.

My 3G tests have ranged from 175 kbps (5:30 PM) to 860 kbps (11 AM). While I used to be able to hit up to 8 mpbs on 4G, my last two tests showed me at 1860 kbps and 1740 kbps. That is slower than any other carriers 3G, like really Sprint? Wimax is a ****ing joke (probably more due to the spectrum used but still)

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jumbie:
Pretty sure it's Sprint as others have already said. In north NJ and my speeds have been horrible for the last 6 months. Just getting worse and worse.

I signed up with Sprint cause of unlimited data but what's the point of having it when it's so slow as to be nearly useless? I have wifi everywhere at work so not an issue but I used to be able to stream music while driving and that's no longer possible.

I've tried just about every speed tweak out there, including the 3G script, resetting data, changing proxy settings and different radio combinations but all have ended up yielding 0 results. My speeds max out at 0.20 Mbps at best.

How do u force roam?.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bonebeany:
To Force roaming.

There is an app called roam control that will do it for you or there is a new rom called Evo Classic v0.0.3 that has it baked in the rom.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the2ndtinman25:
I've got roam control already but it doesn't seem to do anything. And yes I am rooted
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
Roam Control will only let you roam for voice. For data, you will be on 1x only. (although 1x is usually faster than what I get on sprint's 3g).

To fully roam on verizon with 3g you will need to flash the verizon prl here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=696073

Be sure to fully read, and understand that until you unflash the prl, you will be CONSTANTLY roaming on verizon, for both voice and data. Your phone won't show you are roaming, so be careful and dont forget and leave it on verizon for too long. Sprint will catch you if you go over about 3gb of data, and they could kick you off their service.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
As stated MANY times, the limit for data roaming is 300mb per month. However, this is not a hard cap, many people get away with using GB's per month and never get caught, and some people use 305mb and do get caught.

I personally think opera mobile (the newest version) is the best one out there. Absolutely zero lag. Compatible with everything I throw at it. I don't understand why people insist on hating it or not using it. It's the best one out there.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toast95135:
I like Opera but there are some things that bug me:

- Google always shows up in mobile view, its annoying to have to always scroll down to click classic.

- The tabs system is slow, I prefer the way the stock browser has them

- You cant always go back to the start page, most of the time you have to open a new tab instead of being able to use the speed dial.

The new Dolphin HD is nice but I don't like not having back and forward buttons, and that you have to scroll back to the top of the page to type in a URL. In the stock browser all you have to do is click the tab and the buttons show.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph0tios:
I don't like the blocks that happen in the stock browser when scrolling, but I really love the quick controls. It generally seems less buggy than the other browsers as well.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arun01:
Opera actually almost is the best browser but on some pages they never load fully & on some pages even with flash enabled some things show up as a big arrow that would play just fine on Dolphin Hd.Opera is the only browser i can check my gmail just as i could on my desktop..Dolphin HD is lacking there.Opera needs another update to fix the bugs.Lastly why on earth does everything load on Opera halfway (for instance pictures).If you hold on the pic it will give you the option to "Reload image in full quality" !!! Wtf..how about loading that way in the first place lol...I'll stick with Dolphin Hd for now.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Weird. Nothing has shown up as mobile view for me for a month now. I think you need to play around more with settings.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YoMarK:
You can solve this by setting the User Agent to Desktop in Advanced settings.

---------- Post added at 09:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:28 AM ----------

Look like you have Opera Turbo enabled, which means that Opera loads the pages though a proxy server which compresses pages for faster loading over slow connections. This will speedup your loading over slow connections, but if you've got a fast connection you should not use it.

You can disable Opera Turbo in the settings.

The day I can go to vimeo.com or youtube.com and play an HD 720p video without having to maximize the screen (without ANY stutter) is the day I'll name a best browser. As it stands, none to me are the best. They all have flaws with flash.

I like dolphin for pad. Opera is not bad, but for me it's a bit slow to start showing the site, and some site I use quite a lot has a little bug in the render. Also, I don't like the tab system.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuckonduhmode:
You can go to the top in Dolphin HD by using the gesture button on the bottom left. Just make an upside down V and it'll bring you right up.

All the browsers need to add some better swipe gestures however...like Atomic Browser for ios. It has 2 Finger swipe left or right to switch between tabs or 3 finger touch to maximize screen. They're customizable as well.

I have to say opera mobile hands down. Not to be confused with opera mini. They are 2 different browsers...especially in terms of performance. But yes, opera mobile is an absolutely fantastic browser both on my nexus s and transformer. Blows every other browser out the water. Very fast UI. Very smooth scrolling and zooming. Flash content etc. It must have deep gpu / hardware acceleration i think. It behaves like a dream. What every browser should be.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyPeter:
Then change the UA to Desktop (you have Mobile, Tablet and Desktop) it's in the settings...

How card can it be?

---------- Post added at 11:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------

It does, and it's the only browser to do so (which is why scrolling is silky smooth on Opera and crap on everything else). Even the stock Android browser doesn't have it yet...

http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2370756,00.asp#fbid=7tE7TmefXx2

The browser will be available for all versions of the Android OS. New features in this version of Opera Mobile include hardware acceleration and pinch-to-zoom. According to the company, hardware acceleration leverages the power of the mobile phone to allow for increased speed, faster navigation, and more fluid interaction with the phone. It also makes possible full pinch-to-zoom functionality for all sites.

I do have it set to the desktop user agent, and Opera does the same thing on my phone. Typing a search in the URL or search bar always brings up the mobile version. I have gone through and changed the user agent in the about:config page without any luck either.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Spoken like a true ipad user. Complain rather than try to find a solution.

The search bar is a mobile search bar, yes. Would it kill you to not use it? Just put google homepage (the desktop one) in your favorite and go there whenever you want to search for something.

Many of us have already written to opera about this. I'm confident they will fix this in upcoming updates.

To me, this is one drawback that is easily avoidable. With built in hw acceleration and functions... screw it.

Just don't use opera at all. If you prefer the lagginess of other browsers, be my guess. Don't ever try to go around anything. Just complain.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toast95135:
Excuse me? Im complaining because I don't like a bug that lots of other people have reported? Ive tried every "solution" in the book to try and fix it but none work. I like Opera and have been using it for a year but it doesn't mean the mobile bug is any less irritating.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodintentions:
Already told you the solution. Its the same one I use. Just put Google homepage in favorite and go there when you want to search. How hard can it be?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spidey01:
I use the stock browser because it provides what I want (tabs, chrome bookmark sync) and performs reasonably enough for browsing; I still remember surfing at 3.4K/s :p.

Opera is what I use on my phone because it seriously kicks the Froyo stock browser to timbucktu on performance. I do think Opera Mobile's UI is much better suited to a tablet than the HC stock though.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atb1o1:
Opera mobile is indeed faster and smoother in terms of scrolling compared to all the other browsers. UI response is also very quick. However, Opera has serious issues with Flash. Opera would crash on my TF for some flash content and flash videos are really slow to load and would stutter while Dolphin HD and even stock would play much smoother.

I like Opera, its my usual web browsing browser. But if I need flash content, I switch to Dolphin HD.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuckonduhmode:
Sorry, but that's not really a good solution. No one should have to click 3 times and then type into a search bar to find something.

Here's a better one. Click your search bar and click on the dropdown arrow. If you click on manage search engines, you'll find that google is set to search using opera mobile's browser identifier. Now the thing that sucks is Opera doesn't let you add your own or even edit the default google one. So what you have to do is edit another one like ebay or amazon (whichever one you don't use) and enter

http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8&q=

for the address bar.

Click save and choose it as your search engine. That should do the trick. However, Opera doesn't like to remember which search engine you chose last, so if you exit, you'll have to choose the correct search engine once you start it up again.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vincey:
I found another way to do it:

"First, navigate to the site of the search engine, then locate the search bar on the site, tap & hold on the search field, and you’ll be prompted to add it. After it’s added, it’ll appear in the list."

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunswick:
I just isntalled Opera mobile 11.5 last night after this thread.

Wow - scrolling is so smooth and fast its brilliant!! The stock browser's scrolling now sucks even more - its slow and the tiling effect for images is just iritating!!

The stock browser quick controls are awesome though, and the Opera tabs switching and closing is rubbish in comparison.

Dolphin is good, but seems to be jack of all trades, master of none. Its tabs are better than Opera but its not as quick or polished as Stock browser, but then its flash playing is probably the best.

Dolphin is the most faithful PC representation i think.

BOAT BROWSER is pretty good, it wont show as available for the TF in the market but it works very well. Similar to Dolphin but with a little more style.

It is my girlfriend/wife/technophobe woman browser. Whilst I use Stock overall still (she cant manage the quick controls lol :D ).

Hi,

Question for devs, especially slade87

In slade's latest gintonic 2.5.0 he includes a special patch called "libril for 2.1.1.C.0.0 radio OTA"

Being pretty noobish at the under the hood stuff of this, I was just wondering, what is this and what does it do?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] slade87:
its the library for your GSM/HDSPA access which also communicates with your hardware of your phone.

in short its the lib that allows you to use the phone with your gsm provider.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] NovaMa:
Hi, slade: just following this thread, and the Gintonic.SE ROM...

Just curious: why this library is not provided as part of the ROM itself? I mean, if this is the library for GSM/HDSPA access, I guess it should always be inside the ROM, otherwise we would have no signal connection. Right?

...and, is this a "standard" library? I mean: can I use it even with another ROM?

Thanks for any reply.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] rosshalz:
oh i can answer this one partly i think :)

according to what slade said on the gintonic thread, apparently the library is different between phones that had 2.1.1.A.0.0 and 2.1.1.C.0.0 Stock roms. Sony seems to have released the right one after detecting which one u need automatically.

However the one that is for slade's operator (presumably) is the same one as for 2.1.1.A.0.0 stock rom.. so all gintonic versions have had that one by default. that's y some people had error trying to search networks.. however that's y he released an alternate one for ppl who had the networks needing 2.1.1.C.0.0 libril.

Slade...Am I right?? :)

Edit:

whether u can use it with another rom.. not sure...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] NovaMa:
rosshalz, thanks for your answer: actually, reading in detail the post from the ROM, it seems to be the way you described...
