Hell yeah!! No more 00001.prl needed! And, this is the time of day when 3G is hit the hardest can't wait to see what off peak hours will be like :D

Edit: Should state the best I ever got at this time of day would average about 45kbps, so this is a huge improvement. Sprint just went up a few notches. If this helps LoS then all is well. Now just give us some revB love!!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
Same here. Speeds have definitely increased. I was around 100-200kbps for a long time and the last couple days in averaging between 1600-2000kbps down and 200-300kbps up on 3g. I've never seen 2mbps down on 3g ever.

I've noticed 3G improve in my usual areas of San Diego as well. Although it was always pretty decent here anyways. Glad to see people who had abysmal 3G performance finally starting to see some improvement though. Welcome news for sure.

Hell yes, 3G finally isn't at .03 Mbps down in Rochester, Minnesota

it's 1.01 Mbps down.

My 3G speeds here in Nashville / Madison TN has also increased.

On my girlfriend LG Optimus S she gets Ping 88 Down 1.2mbps

My Epic Touch *Samsung Weak Radio* gets Ping 130 0.72mbps

So deffinetly an upgrade.

Was playing xbox live off the Optimus 3G connection since it does better on latency and played nice online rooted with wifi tehter.

4G on the other hand seems to be the same but always worked in this area getting 6+ mbps down always.

I just updated my PRL back to Sprint and there are no towers live yet. My town is still at +70% out-of-power( All of CT is +50% out of power last i checked), so, I'm sure that has something to do with it. Sprint's battery backups die a every time...but now I'm excited for when they bring them back up. I've been checking every half hour, lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ericlikeseatin:
No significant changes here to 3G (Durham, NC). I average around 0.70-0.90 mbps down and 0.2-0.3 up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] allroy1975:
we were testing at lunch 3 of us on Sprint, 1 AT&T and 1 T-Mobile.

2 Sprint users (one had an EVO, the other an EVO 3D) both pulled at over 1mb, my ET4G wouldn't go over like 600k.

T-Mobile was similar to mine.

AT&T GS2 was pulling between 1.6-2.1.

We're out in Lake St. Louis MO, not too far from STL.

wtf? how come EVO users are so much faster than me? I updated PRL and Profile....lame. :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hypersonicx:
Samsung is known for having lame radios. I had the same problem with my Nexus S 4G. My Evo OG 4G in the same location would display 2/3 4G bars and pull 8megs down consistently where as the Nexus S would pull 1-4megs down.

I haven't really abused data since being with T-Mobile last year when I used up to 10gb a month. We are upgrading our DSL to uverse this coming weekend. So I'll go from 3mbs to 12mbs:-) I'm always on wifi at the house. What's funny as I saw your sig about Verizon ...I had tried to update my prl / profile last night, but it kept giving me an error. Called Sprint, techs were unknowlegable as usual. Had me pull my battery, etc then factory reset. Of course this bs didn't fix my 1 to 5 kbs speeds. So I was like screw it I'll gonna flash the 001 prl. Did and speeds were good, but then I didn't want the overages so I updated back to sprint's prl which worked this time:-)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
After nearly a week with all Sprint towers down I finally got a Sprint signal...Prior to this I would be lucky to see 600kbps any time of day...I just saw a few successive tests via speedtest.net at 1.8mbps!!??

Central CT here.

Now, I did many many more tests and I came up with results all over the map...sometimes with uplink speeds of 650kbps but downlink speeds of less?

It also isn't the best time of day to test this, but, I have never seen 1.8mbps on 2 bars in this apartment...so...I think we might be seeing signs of real improvement. Once again, this is at 2:30am....and it is wildly inconsistent....but it seems like a good sign. If I can hold 1.5mbps (give or take 500kbps) average I'm sticking with Sprint...happily.

If not? Verizon month-to-month with a Galaxy Nexus here I come until Sprint can sort this mess out.

I'm getting 15 mb down on 4g but I don't have 3g in my house. Only in 1x. Anyone know what the problem is ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
EV is capable if 3.1Mbps. In practice the highest consistent I've seen is 2.4Mbps on VZ.

Basically with Sprint they have a tower with 1.5-3.0Mbps backhaul with all these devices making connections theoretically capable of 3.1Mbps.

It is like having a 1.5Mbps DSL connection and sharing with with 50 people in a dorm using 802.11n connections. You get full speed when your dormmates aren't downloading p0rn. Who knows when they'll get a fixing for streaming video.

That's why you get such varying speedtest results. It isn't because Sprint has fixed anything.

When they actually fix it for real putting in the fiber or microwave backhauls, you'll get consistently fast speeds and it will be obvious.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
That's what I was afraid of.

I have actually seen 2.8mbps, it was glorious.

Well, its Saturday at noon and I did another round of tests. I figured it would be one of the best times of day to test...and my speeds suck again. Granted, they are slightly better than they have been, but, I think we can chalk that up to random factors that make measuring this stuff so inconsistent. (Weather, transient network utilization, variable amount of connected users, etc).

Hey, at least the Sprint towers are back on again. They spent almost an entire week offline completely.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] alamn8r:
so i have been only getting 1x the entire week and just today i have gotten 2.3 megabytes out of 3g, i guess they have been working on the tower this week. i am finally happy to be on sprints 3g (:

I've seen nothing but 1mbps+ on my ET4G. This is an improvement over any other phone I've used on Sprint.. including the Nexus I still own.

Speeds definitely seem to be better. In an area where I would usually get 300-700kbps, I get well over 1MB now :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tarrant64:
Update from Omaha. Speeds were generally pretty crappy for a couple days since my last post but I can confirm today significant increases in speed. I was average .2 MB or less before up or down and today I notice a couple extra bars on my phone and speeds around 1MB down and .5 MB up.

Ping times are still shaky (150-250ms) but speeds are consistently 800kb down/500kb up or more.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucimaci:
Hi Everyone,

I have a problem since so long, tried to find a really working solution for that, but I've failed many times, and that thing always went to parking space at my to-do list.

So let me ask a question. What is the best app for syncing your contact list pictures with facebook? And I know, there are a lot of apps doing that, what really concerns me, is the quality of them. For ex, many phone apk-s seem to support bigger pictures, but everyone of it displays pictures like it was magnified from a freakin thumbnal, and looks.... really bad.

Anyone has a solution for that? Tips?! I'd really appreciate it, and thanks in advance :)

i am not really following you...what about facebook official application ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caliban2:
i think he's talking about google changing the quality of contact-pictures. doesn't matter how hq they are on your phone, as soon as you sync your contacts with your google-account, quality is degraded. this is happening on all platforms (android, ios, winmo...) - go complain to google. (not that they listened in the past 2 years... ^^)

only "solution" until they change that on server:

don't sync your contacts with your google-account.

yeah, FSCI was used on my galaxy spica though, it had a lot of bugs, errorous facebook messages, missed calls by application fc-s. Havent tried on nexus yet, but that didn't seemed to be a stable working solution by then.

Anyway, I'm sorry to hear that, in fact I hoped there is a way to solve it, I thought that its quality is bad because of the google cached pictures.. :\

It's kinda makes me wonder, that on ICS the caller pic is way bigger (ok, sdk port, but kinda looks like the phone app will not get a complete revamp till the release), so maybe they tend to do something with this problem... or at least I hope so :)

Hello guys, I have a question. First, my phone is running with Axura ROM. The thing is want to revert back to using TW Launcher and not use Launcher Pro. I don't like the look of the icons in Launcher Pro anymore.

I tried reinstalling TWLauncher using Explorer but the app will not install. Does that mean I have to do something special for the app to work with Axura?? Please help.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazyb421:
Did you uninstall the TW Launcher? If not you just need to go to "manage apps" in settings and clear the defaults for LauncherPro. Then press home and it should give you the option of which launcher you want to use.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jneal9:
If I remember correctly TWLauncher is completely removed from Axura. You said you tried reinstalling TWLauncher. How exactly did you go about it? I would recommend getting the stock KB1 which the last Axura release was based on, copy TWLauncher.apk from /system/app, and push it to /system/app on your phone. Reboot and it should be available.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joselamar:
Thanks for the reply guys. Here's the scoop. There was a reason for axura to remove TWL simply because it doesn't work. I was able to install the latest version and honestly it SUCKS. That damn launcher locks my phone and I ended up reinstalling everything from scratch again. TWL is not good for axura, looks nice but it's not worth it. Anyway, that is what I got for you and thanks for the replies.

[Motorola Atrix 2] cuhrazy:
As if right now the bootloader is still locked so you can't really do backups/restores. They did use the bionic bootstrap which allowed them to do backups but it's a big risk. Your best bet is to just wait. If you do root you can always unroot.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Gadgetz:
Thats not true. You cant backup the complete rom but you can backup all your data/apps, mybackup is my app of choice for that task.

But if you're just trying to root the phone, it doesnt wipe data so no backup would be needed. Just a FYI. But it is always a good idea to have current backups just in case.

Could be a ROM issue. Have you read the rom's sticky/faq/dev thread? I can tell you it is not a problem with the widget. It is either the way Sense is implemented in that ROM or a modification you have added that is causing your problem. You could try a full wipe and fresh install to see if that fixes it.
