I can talk you through an unthrottle mod that may help with that issue...its from the powerboost scripts

In general...ill do my best to try all the roms out there and see how it works but with every mod mash, speedy, etc they and this wont work the same for everyone. Hopefully it will for many though. Try a few other settings though from null to 10 but not 0! :)

where the hell is the build.prop located? I cannot for the life of me remember where it is!!!

I found the build.prop but what the hell am I editing? I am sorry but i dont understand. I see a long list of things and am unsure what exactly needs to be edited

[Motorola Droid X2] rbellis:
yeah.....I read the OP again and changed it. rebooted...took a sec for the 3G to connect but I can tell a difference. Downloaded a game from the market and it was done in no time!

Is this going to have any change on the battery?
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
Haven't noticed any excess battery drainage. It shouldn't cause any since all we are doing is allowing the flow of data to be what it should be not throttled down

Testing something for an update with a new addition....I suffer from very poor signal at home and no matter what only get 100kbs even with the mod...even though the mod about doubled from what I had before it. This new idea thanks to a fellow x2r I chatted with gave me 200k speed downloading a file with a -102 dBM signal in conjunction with the build.prop edit. Looks like it stabalized the signal so I don't jump towers at home like I did too. Just need some more testing and should be out this weekend

I've got pretty decent speed after the mod.
[Motorola Droid X2] lbroksle:
It is under /System and should be right on top.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
My download speed from my test today with a -62 DbM signal was 45mb in 3 mins. Speed was often in the 400kb-500kb/s range today where prior was 250-300 avg with the build prop mod. Going to runa few others with the new file and the build prop edit and go from there. If the reproduce then I will post it later today.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
I am a victim of network optimization myself so I'll probably never see those speeds with a download. Do me a favor if your bored. Download the cm7 zip and time it to completion and post it here.
[Motorola Droid X2] pacman377:
Motcher if you could walk me through the mod i sure would appreciate it. Right now im running cm7 and the 8 touch points mod and thats it. Im loving it just hate thisa crappy data speed. I'll be one here and check a little bit, but wont be off and able to do much till i get off work.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
pm'd u the files and instructions
[Motorola Droid X2] jcbwaters3:
I just finished the CM7 Download. Took roughly 9 minutes. It seems that once my speeds Max out they dip back down for a few seconds. I live in a very good area as far as Verizon coverage goes. I've played with the values a bit and I gain about a third more d/l speed with it set to ten. 9 was giving me trouble.

Motcher, do you happen to see or remember a post I made in Ash's, and maybe yours too, general advice post. I wrote a how-to guide on the powerboost unthrottle mod catered to the X2. I'm on my cell now and it's hard for me to find it at tthe moment. Maybe you can post a link to it or clean up my discombobulation of an attempt at a walkthrough.

[Motorola Droid X2] hamburgerman:
confirmed speed increase in Cm7 but the 3g service took about 2-3 minutes to start after reboot.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
Thanks for the conformation. Thats the longest I have heard it took. Did you do both or just one of them?
[Motorola Droid X2] hamburgerman:
I first did mod 1 took about 35 seconds then benched it. Then I did the mod 2 and got the slow service start about 2-3 minutes, but 3g speed after was faster.
[Motorola Droid X2] pacman377:
Thanks motcher41 I've done the both the mods and got the unthrottle working. Right now I'm showing 1.2 to 1.5 Mb/s with network monitor. I'll find out for sure if the unthrottle is working when it gets around 7 or 8. Awesome work, thanks!

[Motorola Droid X2] xawen:
Follow the unzip directions in the OP. Due to the way the setup.sh script is written, the files must be at a specific folder depth on your card (/sdcard/folder/PB2.2/unthrottle). If not the scripts, including sysrw, will not copy.

I'm betting you saw a bunch of errors when you ran setup.sh in script manager?

[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
In theory...it is files used for network throttling on the phone end. Undoing those by setting at zero should reduce or eliminate data hangups and may reduce the effects of network optimization by evil red. It is nearly impossible to for surely tell you what it does because it's nearly impossible to test appropriately

Hey Moltcher...

please let us know how this is different ,in regard to nullification of the data/data ....secure settings, from the prev old thread in Q&A? If you have yo data/system/throttle empty and read only?

Thanks
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
It doesn't have anything to to with that folder and I talked to someone once that said that had to do with the kernel throttle not the data.

These are my speeds with an additional mod but the mod wont work for cm. Only. Our roms like eclipse. I don't really like these apps but that ain't bad ;) that's on 3g too not wifi. I'm nowhere near a tower but have a good signal.

Sent from my Eclipsecrack using Xparent Blue Tapatalk
[Motorola Droid X2] skwoodwiva:
How can we mod the kernel ? It's locked.

When in last ran the pb it said that the (above mentioned) db file was changed to a different throttle reset day.
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
its not modding that file. its modding a database in the data/data/com.android.providers.settings folder

cm only has one of the throttle settigns in it. the day the throttle resets. that is a uses mod since the day just resets when you reboot. from zero to a random number. I am not sure the lack of throttle files is a good thing though as they may be the defalut settings. I am going to try to put them into the database and run it with some different database settings I am running with my eclipse. Not sure if it will work but Im going to try.

Edit: Looks like I wont be able to add the throttle to the cm. I dont have the know how to do it. Ill keep playing with it though.
