I hate my speed too but I'm getting better speeds with el29
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Yes, Dallas has been fully updated. Or at least it is nearly finished
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stargaterules:
That's because I get 29% off from them through work, but I suspect I'll be ditching them shortly. It just isn't worth waiting for the upgrades to be completed. For comparison purposes. It took me 7 minutes to download a 6 MB app on their 3G. LOL. Thank god for WIFI.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] air2k57:
Correction. Waiting months or years to get to the point where Verizon is already at 4g wise, 3g is still a joke, even post upgrade.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Buff McBigstuff:
I used to have Sprint and their slow data so I switched to the Galaxy Nexus with 4G LTE from Verizon. It puts my Comcast Cable to shame.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] docmarioce:
Amazing WOW :eek:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
I am sitting in the same spot as last night at this time. Big difference in numbers. Perhaps people are in bed because there's work tomorrow morning?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] docmarioce:
This is this morning at my bedroom. Thanks to Wi-Fi I can check my email in my smartphone before going to work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] j_shelton1988:
What's the point of all that speed though if your capped after a certain amount?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Overstew:
Sure isn't lte, but I'm hoping LTE hits my house soon. I have an incredibly weal wimax signal at my house that it's unusable.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Androidfreakz:
Screw Verizon I been there and done that. Data cap with fast lte is #Fail lmao. Fastest 3g speed I seen on sprint is 2mb d/l I usually avg around about 1mb here in Dallas and up too 12mb on wimax.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Androidfreakz:
No to shabby with 1 bar.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Alchemistgunner:
lol I know i'm one of them. Detroit shows no love with data speeds
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
I use to have Sprint

Then I took a arrow to my knee
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Unknown_Hero:
Don't forget your data speeds might be crappy now but its unlimited...and far less expensive than Verizon. Not even going to mention at&t or t-mob that's just a joke. Just hold tight Sprint is getting better, heck its 100 times better than it was four years ago. Everyone has something to say about every wirless carrier, there's always something your not going to like. I think 3g speeds are honestly bad with any provider I try to use wifi and sometimes 4g when I can but 3g works well for the small stuff like a quick Google search or email. All I know is unlimited data is a big deal breaker for me and I'm glad Sprint still has it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spencer88:
I guess you actually have never used Verizon before. The difference between Sprint and Verizon is night and day.

What's the point of paying for unlimited data if it's so slow you can't use it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] air2k57:
Exactly! 4Gb oon Verizon can go a long way. On sprint, I give up on half the things I try and do on their data network.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
I'm getting about those same speeds in LA. I've been calling for nearly a year and they keep promising it is being worked on or there is a problem with a tower in my neighborhood... It can't take a year to fix bad internet speeds. I work all over Los Angeles County and it isn't that much different from location to location so it isn't just my home neighborhood that sucks but also century city, gardena, LAX, downtown, culver city, santa monica, northridge, pasadena, Tucson Arizona, Miami FL, RSW, FL, Danbury, CT, Hartford, Connecticut, Las Vegas Nevada... No improvement in the past year. I'm not going to wait 5 years, a few more months (what they told me a year ago) or any more time for Sprint to supposedly fix their network. Verizon is already 4 to 10 times faster in Los Angeles (depending on if you go 3G or 4G and yes I'm comparing LTE speeds to Wimax speeds). And Verizon is already rolling in a new backbone in Los Angeles next month to increase bandwidth AGAIN even though they clearly have no competition with Sprint.

Yes Sprint gives gives you unlimited data but if you were thirsty would you like a glass of water or unlimited water - 1 drop at a time?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Lost Impulse:
I live south Florida and my speeds are usually pretty good and consistent.

I'm currently using Calkulins ROM 2.8.1 with the EK02 modem/kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spencer88:
Boe! Have you received any letter from Sprint about your roaming yet? Hell I can give you the number in the letters they send and you can tell them you received a letter and you want out :)

PM me if you want the number.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lifyre:
Tell me about it... I don't think we're getting much Vision love either...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
Thanks, I have not received anything from Sprint yet even though I downloaded 25GB on Verizon last month. I'm guess Sprint is slow in every process it has - from billing corrections, tracking client usage, to new towers and data speed. I'm not worried about how fast I can get kicked any more. If they kick me this week; great. If they don't I can wait a number of months for the GSIII. I'm hoping we see it here on Verizon by Late August. That way I don't have to do 2 upgrades as I'm only luke warm on the Galaxy Nexus. While the data speeds on the Verizon Galaxy Nexus blow the doors off my Sprint ET4G, otherwise, I like the ET4G for the most part. Perhaps when CM9 is polished on the GN I'll be more interested in it. I feel raw ICS is a little rough around the edges for simple things like turning on and off 4G.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikel719:
I Have been getting better speeds today. This was around noon.

Then I was tethering to my laptop. I don't know how accurate the download speed here was.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Unknown_Hero:
I have used Verizon actually and it was the same for me honestly, you obviously haven't heard that Sprint and Verizon are on the same frequency (cdma) and share towers when needed. This is why Sprint roams off Verizon and vice versa. I can actually say this because I work and Sprint any get anywhere from 3-6 people a day that switch from Verizon to Sprint because you get unlimited data...the 3g is the same speed. Verizon's LTE is faster if you get it in your area...but Sprint is getting LTE too. Wow looks like I'm still saving 40 bucks a month and get unlimited data...sounds like a no brainer but if your mom pays your bill which she probably does I wouldn't complain either.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spencer88:
Ha you're funny. Ironically, I probably make more money than you.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] docmarioce:
I have an appointment today with my daughter's boyfriend who also works for t-mobile and probably will jump ships. T-mobile has excellent 4G reception at home and they also have a GSII so...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] staryoshi:
I used to use Verizon, but I switched to Sprint out of protest for the lack of unlimited data. (Plus, I love the E4GT) I'm on pace to exceed 4GB of usage this month, and while the 4G coverage isn't as widespread or as fast as I'd like, I NEVER have to worry about overages (And I disabled roaming, too).

When you're at home, it's silly not to use the wifi unless you're trying to rack up the data. My "neighborhood" data speed isn't the best, 3G @ 750kbs/350kbs or so, but I have blazing wifi.

The Sprint E4GT is superior to the t-mobile GSII, which uses a higher-clocked but inferior processor. If I'm going to be stuck with a plan, I'd rather support Sprint at this point in time. T-Mobile won't benefit from the merger fallout, Verizon is fast but limited and expensive, and AT&T is... AT&T. I'll be with Sprint as long as they offer me unlimited data. If that ever changes, I'd jump back to Verizon, probably. My two cents.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] docmarioce:
Update

So far so good on T-Mobile. Bye bye Sprint. This GSII looks the same than the epic touch but without the Led Light which I can live without. This is at home.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boe:
I was just visiting a new client in Westwood. They are a division of large federal organization. They liked my phone but surprised someone in my line of business was on Sprint due to data speeds. THey said they were in the process of switching over all their phones from Sprint due to the horrible data speeds in Los Angeles. I know my company is way way way too small to get noticed when we leave Sprint but it is nice to know that someone like them is dumping Sprint as that may be the kick in the head Sprint needs to get the message.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikel719:
I had a Verizon Droid 2 global next to me today and did some speed tests at my house and my et4g was the winner every time. I drove a couple blocks away and it was the same thing.

I guess it all depends on location but need less to say, the Droid 2 has since been fully flashed to cricket.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sweets55:
No problems with Sprints data in Columbus, Ohio. I use WiFi most of the time though.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rob the plumber:
Sprint data speeds are generally pretty slow.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wingzfan:
Ill take my 3g speeds on AT&T over my 3g or 4g speeds on sprint any day.

My sprint connection here in San Francisco is pretty bad. In certain areas of the city my 3g simply stops working. Hopefully they do something about this.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] air2k57:
Top is 4g test I've done, bottom 3g.

Usually it ranges between 100kbps and 1mpbs on 3g, to 1-4mbps on 4g. Blah, tmo 3g was way better and more consistent.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] demorik:
I get horrible speeds on Spint even on 4g i cant even watch a YT vid on high quality on 4g...getting a gsm S2 and moving to att
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stargaterules:
Anyone know how Tmobile speeds compare?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wingzfan:
I know in my area theyre pretty good. 4g hits about 12 or so meg and 3g hits 2-3 meg.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tt281gt:
+1

I get LESS than 25 kB/s on 3g, 4g I average around 300-500 kB/s [3-5Mbps] with 1 bar of 4g. Full bars on a good day I can hit 1000 kB/s [10Mbps].

That Verizon 4g LTE speed test made my mouth water BUT as of right now I am happy with Sprint because I get 4g service in *most* areas around here and I have UNLIMITED data, which I make sure to take advantage of.

Last month I used 54,492,158 [not sure what sprint uses to measure: I assume kilobytes] = 51GB!!, every month I use OVER 15GB with no side effects or data throttle [slow down]. Try that with any other carrier lol.

Once Verizon goes unlimited or Sprint moves to cap data usage then I can brainstorm switching carriers.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wingzfan:
Oh boy...

25 kB/s equals 0.02441 mbps

1000 kB/s equals 0.97656 mbps

300-500 kB/s equals 0.29297-0.48828 mbps

Consequently thats less than sprint states is their acceptable and average rate

Verizon just dropped unlimited data, why would they bring it back?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] air2k57:
HAHAHHA somebody doesn't know how to convert! 1000kbps is less than 1mbps, NOT 10.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bman55:
They don't have "4g" its that their 3g is so fast it's technically qualifies for 4G speeds and once you go over your allowed monthly limit your speeds jump to 2g (edge) speeds.

GalaXy S ll [blazerV3] @ 1200x720
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tt281gt:
Darn speed test app did me dirty. I stand corrected.

What made me think that is when looking at my speed test it shows 664kB/s as the results but shows 5.19mbps for the same test.

I never said Verizon will go back to unlimited I said that would be one of the only reasons I'd consider leaving Sprint beside Sprint using data caps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tt281gt:
Dp
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tt281gt:
Hahhaha. You sure bro? There is a difference between 1000kbps that YOU said vs 1000kB/s that I said.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wingzfan:
You know what your absolutely right I cant even hide it. My bad. Thats pretty damn good then on 4g cuz Ive never seen anyone post over 3meg.

---------- Post added at 10:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:47 PM ----------

Hell edge speeds are faster than sprints full 3g so Id be cool with that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] docmarioce:
back with Sprint

Hi guys

I did not like T-Mobile and switched back to Sprint yesterday. I am returning the phones at T-Mobile tomorrow. The T-Mobile galaxy sII is not even similar to our epic thanks God I did not sell my epic touch. Sprint hasnt gotten better in my area but I will wait a little longer
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] air2k57:
That's the thing i do like about sprint. Phones are usually very solid and software isn't all bloated, specially compared to verizon phones. I also find software ugly on most verizon devices. Tmobile has no selection, and galaxy s series don't seem to be on par with sprint versions, be it the first gs, or second. With network upgrades coming this year, im hoping sprint picks it up.

Besides, every month i seem to average anywhere from 3-11gb of data. All i really do is light browsing, Pandora, slacker, Netflix and stream NBA games at times. I'd be paying out of the ass for normal use on other carriers.

Wondering if anyone has GTA 3 and can comment on the gameplay?

I also heard the oldschool cheat codes will work on this version, but only with the adition of a keyboard ... does the keyboard dock work for this?

Gameplay is super smooth, all effects are turned on. Connecting an Xbox controller is also supported by GTA 3 with no setup required.

Haven't tried any cheats, but the keyboard arrows work, if that helps.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Arjoma:
The game is amazing! Never played it on the PC before but I have been told that everything's original (which is a god thing). You can go from mission to mission or also just drive around which is incredibly fun as well.

Perfect scenario for me: playing it on the Transformer with keyboard (+ mouse), works great and it a lot more comfortable that using the on screen controls. Most cheats from the PC also work and - although I haven't tried it- even patches work by changing files in the data folder. I just have one patch applied that improves the graphics overall (colours and details).
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] 5h4d0w:

How do you want to enter cheats/ text without a keyboard attached? Or do you just mean the Transformer Dock? I use a Logitech keyboard and cheats work (at least most).

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onasri15:
I was flashing a new rom, but it wasn't transferring over to my sdcard. So I went into recovery and tried to mount it. Somehow, my sdcard got wiped. I have no system on there, and no files in sdcard.

WHAT DO I DO!? Whenever I try to transfer a file, it'll stick to "copying" on my computer, and wont' send it over. I have no idea what I'm supposed to do because nothing will transfer over.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onasri15:
Solved via pm, and noticed it was in wrong section. Please remove.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smoka206:
Well sounds like you lost your OS. Did you make a backup? You may not have wiped your SD card you may have just wiped your data. When you hit install from recovery do you see any files? If you don't then you have wiped your SD card. If you still have recovery, flash a rom and you should be up and running again.
[HTC Sensation] greves1:
hey, just testing out a few of the stripped down ICS 4.0.3 roms. theyre really great, but the devs always take out the htc_ime. i really like to have that cause of the language selection.

i know i saw somewhere a .zip to flash it back in, but i cant find it now that i need it! anyone know where it is??

thanks!
[HTC Sensation] koneX:
I heard that HTC_IME is not compatible with ICS...
[HTC Sensation] beady_uk:
It is compatible - im using it with no problems. Even HTC trace works fine.

What you need to do (sorry i cant make a flashable zip)

download the zip from HERE

Extract the zip file

Push the HTC_IME.apk (from app folder) to /system/app (I use ES file explorer) and change permissions to RW-R-R

Then push the libs (from lib folder) to /system/lib and change permission to RW-R-R - there should be 5 in total.

Then reboot. I also wiped cache & Dalvik cache just to be sure.

NOTE: if you are using virtuous inquision the lib files are already present. This is the rom im using and since it is based from the HTC leak, the dev has not removed the libs. So all you need is the HTC_IME.apk into /system/app and then you should be able to select the HTC touch input in the keyboard list.

I hope this helps
[HTC Sensation] Gamesoul Master:
Doesn't work. Even after copying all the files to their proper folders, ensuring permissions are correct, and wiping cache and dalvik... It still force closes as soon as Touch Input is selected. Just tried it on CM7.

I'm going to try to investigate this problem and see what I can come up with. I know everybody used to say that Clicker.apk was needed. But if you look at most of the ROMs out there, you'll see that they somehow use the HTC_IME keyboard without having Clicker.apk. So what's missing?

Edit: I feel like I'm going to give myself a headache trying to figure this out. The logcat for the FC said (amongst other things) that there is a ClassNotFoundException for KeyboardSettings. There's also a lot of ActivityThread errors which don't really mean much to me. A Google search revealed that it may be related to the AndroidManifest.xml in the APK file, but unfortunately it's not a standard XML file (try opening it to see what I mean). Not to mention, the APK is obviously fine, because I pulled it right from the ROM.

So basically, we need to somehow figure out what other files are needed by HTC_IME.apk, besides the libraries mentioned already in this thread. I assume that it worked for beady_uk because the ROM he was using already had the rest of the required files without him knowing. I'm going to continue looking to see if I can find more information, but I would definitely appreciate if anybody has any technical input into this situation. I can provide logcat information if needed.
[HTC Sensation] beady_uk:
I believe that you have mis-read the 1st post.

The OP asked how to re-add the HTC_IME to a stripped down rom that the dev had removed.

This is what i have done and it worked - possibly because the roms are sense-based framework.

You have tried to install this on CM7 with is CM based framework so i think you will need more 'files' but that is beyond my knowledge.

Sorry i cant help further
[HTC Sensation] Gamesoul Master:
You are correct. I was in a deep search for anything revolving around installing it, so I missed that part. I saw your post (which is the only place I've seen anybody mention installing those lib files), and I guess that caused further oversight on my part.

I do imagine this may not work on all the stripped down ROMs though, if any of the cooks stripped their ROMs like I stripped my old Win98 PC that had a 1GB hard drive in it... that is to say, remove every possible file that wouldn't cause stability issues :D
