Mid 20's to mid 30's is about average from what I have been seeing.

Still trying to break the 40 Mb/s mark.

Maybe I should try it while I'm not downloading stuff in the background? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
I get around 40-50mbps down and 10-20 up around campus/downtown, but at my apartment its usually between 10-20mbps and 5-10 up. Downtown=4 bars, my apartment = 2 bars.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chakra:
Ya I get fron 20 to 40 down. It makes me laugh, ATT is throttleing their already slow network. Thats like taking a tricicle and adding an anchor because its to fast.

ATT dumb ass's. I hope everyone quits them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] trmiv:
Wow, some fast speeds in here! The fastest I've seen on mine is 11Mb up, 11Mb down. At home I get around 8Mb down if I stand in the right spot, but usually around 4-5Mb, so I just use my home internet. I haven't tested in a lot of places though, so maybe there are some faster areas around me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] emptyclipzzz:
My average is 20mpbs up and like 12 down in Worcester Massachusetts
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tbaker077:
Damn those are some fast speeds, I only get like average around 15 in the OC with my max being around 23-24. Still, that is pretty fast compared to typical 3G speeds.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justin94:
Poway, CA. Right near San diego
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] killyouridols:
Damn you Americans and your new fangled technology!! I get 4mbs on a good day in the UK :-D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daudi81:
I'm in America,

And I'm lucky to get 4-5mbs

I live in SLC Utah - not really that impressed with LTE so far...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathan.moran:
No way! I live in the North County SD area too and I get pretty bad reception. When I do have LTE, it's typically in the 15 Mbps range. Are those speeds typical for you?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Esteway.619:
I live in San Diego to. Going to move to poway that is insane lol. This was in mission valley earlier today at mimi's cafe.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justin94:
my average is around 20 down and 11 up. But in that area I didn't drop below 29
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tbaker077:
Those speeds are nuts, I am in Newport a lot on the weekends, and can't get more than 21Mbps, and average only around 9Mbps there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kryptonian_Knight:
the funny thing is I Dont really think the apps can handle the speeds.LOL they still run faster but I think they can go quicker

Sent from GALAXY NEXUS

Thank if helped
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tbaker077:
I dunno I tried the cnet broadband test via the stock browser and it wasn't any better, in fact it was maybe on average ~1Mbps slower than the Speedtest app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crimson12:
Lansing area, MI right here. I'd disagree that apps aren't capable of using LTE speeds. Sure something like Netflix will just load the movie faster. Other apps that just need data seem to pull much faster, especially compared to my piss poor wifi at home. It does feel oh so good to make a bunch of albums available offline in google music when I have 4g :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eman3316@optonline.net:
Can anyone post some Verizon 3G speeds please...Curious to see if most things will still be usable if left on 3G.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crimson12:
I'll test this tomorrow morning for ya. Sorry the service inside my apartment complex is pretty terrible.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crimson12:
Well this is not at all what I expected. Anyways here's my last 2 results on speed test. The first is with full bars of 4g the second is with full bars of 3g.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ATnTdude:
^That's not typical. Average EVDO speeds will be around 1Mb up/1Mb down. Heavy traffic can cut the downlink by half. Since you're indoors, you might be dealing with multipath interference caused by the radio waves bouncing around inside your building (strong signal does NOT imply good/clear signal). Light traffic can double the downlink to 2Mb, which is about the max real-life speed you'll get with EVDO Rev A. Uplink, for me at least, has been very consistent. It seems to always be around 1Mb, except where it get low/poor signal.

Santa Barbara, Verizon LTE Galaxy Nexus:

Statistics from all speedtests (using ookla speedtest app), 12/21/2011 to 2/10/2012, Averages:

%%% Down(Mbps), Up(Mbps), Ping(ms) %%%

Averages:

4G LTE: 19.5, 7.9, 61.7 (73 tests)

3G EvdoA/EHRPD: 0.935, 0.748, 104.8 (6 tests)

Min:

4G LTE: 4.3, 0.47, 77

3G EvdoA/EHRPD: 0.396, 0.490, 116

Max:

4G LTE: 33.8, 16.3, 44

3G EvdoA/EHRPD: 1.547 0.945, 85

My signal ranges from 1-4 bars quite a bit. My guess is average 28 down and 18 up for 4 bars LTE (in office), and when at home 2 bars I ave about 18 down and 8 up.

My guess is I get a pretty average LTE connection compared to what I've read on the forums --- in terms of people being all over the country.

Real world use, tethering:

When I download a file, I normally see around 500 kB/s, any less than 300 kB/s and I know either my connection is weak or the server I'm DL'ing from is far away or has a weak connection. With many downloads going simultaneously I can get 1+ MB/s consistently; I've maxed out at nearly 3 MB/s down.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] InfiniD:
I'm always amazed when I download something around 100mb and it only takes a min. Gotta love Verizon for that
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crimson12:
I actually did this test outside in a park. That was where the confusion arose. Although you are absolutely correct with the 1mb/s average. If I have the time I'll find some speed tests from my Eris that I've taken in the same spot. Those were always around at least 1mb/s. Hmm...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nmyeti:
The good

The bad

Those three speed tests cost almost as much battery as the previous 6 hours of use (on wifi).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] williamthegoat:
In West Valley City I get around 20...except at home where I get 5. I think I live in a lead box
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] crimson12:
I have full 4g a mile south and half a mile north of my house. Inside this block where my house is I don't have any data coverage at all. there's literally a dead zone here and it baffles me because its such a small area
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mutelight:
I turned off LTE and ran this for you

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nkeelergb:
The fastest I've ever clocked was around 48mbs, typically its in the mid 20's. I didn't believe the lte hype until I saw it for myself and now I'll never go back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xusxmarinesx:
Just ran a few tests getting around 10 mps and only 1.45 mps upload with 3 bars of 4g running new 4.0.4 radios in phoenix
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SoonHD2:
I have been thinking for a while that i want to paint the front plastics from brown to black and was wondering the best way. If anyone has done or knows something about painting pstic with out fingers getting paint when done :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] IBMguy:
ummmm...there was a guy on here that mentioned about polishing the bezel section and such on here because it was dropped. Turned out pretty good in the end, I would contact the OP on that thread about that.

As far as my experience goes, I had an Acura RSX that I painted the plastic headlights (the shiny inside part) black and various colors for other people and they turned out good. The key thing is to remove the old stuff off first before doing so. you are basically then starting with a fresh canvas. wear latex or nitrile gloves as well. use paint cleaner to really get all the oils and stuff off. a LIGHT coat of primer, and then light passes of paint make all the difference in the world.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] SoonHD2:
Or is the rounding material before glass metal? Im starting to feel its metal instead of plastic?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] IBMguy:
You know what, it is metal, that's right. I remember that guy anodized his bezel.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Magnesus:
Definitely metal. You can feel it especially while charging. :)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ldc2335:
Maybe plastic dip. Google it.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
So we have root, custom kernel, and now CWM. It is about time we have a custom ROM to flash. Still no developers with the device, but we have gotten this far with the help of other developers without the device. I was thinking we could get a list of requests and then contact the right people and provide them the files they need to modify.

I guess ill start with the most obvious ones.

[*] Root / SU / Busybox

[*] Zipaligned

[*] Deodexed

[*] Ad Blocking

[*] Browser tweaks

[*] Bloatware removal

[*] OC kernel?

[*] CWM 5.5.0.4 w/ .hidenandroidprogress built in

[*] Updated stock apps

[*] Extended Power Menu

[*] Theming? (not necessary)

[*] Tethering

Thats all I can think of for now. Once we get a list of things we can begin to find someone with the skills to do it.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] JayWheelz:
Pretty much what you mentioned. And of course the obvious one. ICS is the big want and I know it will take some time. Preferably right now a cleaned up stock rom and themes would be cool.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
So i installed linux on my netbook along with dsixda's ROM kitchen. I dont know much but ill see what i can do.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
so yea.

so far i can create a ROM which is bloatware free, zipaligned, deodexed, rooted, CWM w/ hidenandroidprogress, updated system apps, with or without OC kernel, and with tethering. sweet.

basically teaching myself though so it may be a while.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] quasitime:
I'm not really active on these forums, but I'm also available for testing on my i957. (Wasn't allowed to post in the dev forum until I hit 10 posts)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] dawgsoverrebs:
Yep all the above. the main thing is to get rid of this UI lag.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
On my 8.9 LTE i just used another launcher and it was gone...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] JayWheelz:
I'm using another launcher and it's almost gone. I still get forces. I really want to do a full restore of the original rom before any roots and try to push the OC and libs again. The stock ROM I was given by Croak only helps recover from issues but not the ones I mentioned. It never had force closes or any weird issues before. But since the OC it's been running kinda crazy.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] kobygold:
Thanks Orlando for the initiative!

In addition to what you have written, If possible, I would also would love to have:

1. Icons representing cellular speed (2G,3G,H,H+,4G) as on my SGS2.

2. JKAY mod. I don't know if this mod is SGS2 only mod or not. , but if it is possible to port it to our tab it would be great.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
I am not a dev by any means. I just dont have the time to teach myself all of the ins and outs that sammy devs and AOSP devs do. I give them so much credit. Coming from years of a windows base and no programming experience, its tough. I cant make up for what real devs can do, but for now I think I can get a ROM out which will be decent until we can get some real help.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] pseudo_nomen:
I thnk as soon as we get a good stable, flashable, deodexed base it will open up a lot more easily implimented possibilities for theming and adding/subtracting little odds and ends that differentiate some of the different major ROMS.

My suggestion is to just work on good stable base ROM with fully functioning basics first and let the community work it from there.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
I really need to fix the update-binary and the update script in order for this to work in CWM.

but basically I just did simple automated tasks. Kitchened from my nandroid.

Rooted

Superuser

Busybox

Deodexed

Zipaligned

Da_G Overclock Kernel

NoFrills OC App

Custom Libs for OC

Asus Water Wallpaper

Asus Weather Widget

Titanium Backup

Rom Manager (Dont Use It)

Custom Boot Animation Enabled

Bash Shell Support

CWM 5.5.0.4 w/ .nandroidprogress

If it turns out that the nandroid wont work well, then the stock will have to be modified, which means basically just deodex, root, zipalign. thats about all I can do. I wish i knew more about the whole android system but sadly i dont. i am trying to teach myself but it is going to be slow, so i pray we get a real dev soon.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] JayWheelz:
Whatever you can do man is much appreciated. I wish I had a coders heart and talent. Because spend enough time on a PC to be able to contribute if I could this type of coding.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
I thought I had everything set and tried to flash and just got bootloops. Then I just took the stock ROM and made a flashable zip from the stock firmware and that didn't even boot. Really discouraging and it took forever to get my tab back to working. Might be better just to wait for someone who knows what they are doing.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] TEKHD:
Take it easy... Did you took the $7 AT&T insurance for the tab? Usually the AT&T sales rep. does not even know that there is an insurance option for this tab. I went online and saw there was insurance... And mentioned it to the AT&T rep. when buying the tab and he said there was no insurance option... And I told him, yes there is! And he double check and finally realized there was insurance. I took it, because I know the feeling of converting into a brick a brand new shiny device, lol... And look where I am... Already rooted, O/C, flashed recovery and waiting for CM9 or any rom available, lol... Just taking the sidewalk on brick ave. Lol...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] adopilot:

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
I am going to look into insurance today. if i can get it then ill keep flashing away

couldn't get logcat working though to figure out why the flashes went bad...
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
Got the insurance!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] TEKHD:
Great! so now... where can I download the orlandoxpolice ultimate kick ass rom? with all the features mentioned above with CM9 support, voice support for calls, that even unlocks tablet for any gsm sim card and all the latest versions of everything on the market? ahhh and everything in 4D of course... lol
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kennysvgp08:
Is there a way to get the Music player app from touchwiz onto CM9? Also, does MMS work over wifi in CM9 or not because it is an AOSP ROM?

Edit:

If anyone wants to try and make the Apk. itself then here are the instructions:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
There is a thread in Apps subforum with current ported TW apps. The author is taking requests and also provided a procedure to attempt porting yourself.

MMS over wifi has nothing to do with it being an AOSP ROM, it is just not completely working right yet. It will try to send but only a 20% chance it will work. Use GoSMS as a workaround if yours fails.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kennysvgp08:
I had seen before on MIUI that MMS would not work over wi-fi due to the fact that it was an AOSP ROM. But thanks for the GoSMS tip
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kennysvgp08:
Thanks man! Still miss the look and smoothness of it so I may just manually find a way but for now the DSP manager Sounds pretty darn good ;) CM9 FTW!!!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shinydude100:
There's an even better music player for CM9, it's bomb. But not included in CM9, instead we have an ugly stock one, just like cm7. I think we'll get the new music player once CM9 reaches a RC0 state.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DevilsArc:
Ok guys, sorry to post this here but there's no where else right now.

I am so excited about the Xperia S, it isn't funny!! The dual core processor and 1gb internal memory is huge and just what this phone needs!

Who else is excited about this phone, what could be the pros and cons against the Arc?

Let me know what you think,

CheerS D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Flo95:
Not really excited.

Look at the "old" SGS II or newer Galaxy Note. They should beat the Xperia S. And no, I'm not a Sammy fanboy.

Dualcore, 1GB RAM. Xperia S isn't new.

Cons:

No sd card slot
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] slo2lah:
Another cons:

Design and price. Haha
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dp94:
Price is totally a pro and not a con. ;)

Imo cons are:

No sd card slot

non removeable battery

not as sexy as the Arc (couldn't be possible :D)

Pros:

Everything else. :cool:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] slo2lah:
but he asked with the comparison to arc. So arc definitely wins in term of price. :P
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] doomed151:
Xperia S over arc:

- Higher resolution screen.

- Supposedly better camera + 1080p video.

- Dual-core processor.

- Big RAM.

- 32 GB internal memory.

- Design has that "wow" factor especially with that transparent glass in the middle and 3 LED lights in it.

Xperia arc over S:

- Lighter.

- Thinner.

- More affordable.

- MicroSD card slot.

Things that matter me the most are the processor and high screen resolution. Mind you, I watch 4-5 hours of HD (720p/1080p) video content on my phone every day and not having to reencode them would be very helpful, so your needs will differ.

I'd get the SGS II if it's not running TouchWiz. Currently I'm thinking of getting a Galaxy Nexus. Upgrading to Xperia S would yield me an equal-sized screen and Xperia ion's out of reach (since it's US only).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jason_jiang:
quite disappointed when heard that Xperia S has no microSD slot and changeable battery. i will hold my arc until another model moves me:D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Chewitt:
upto 1.8GB for App Storage,

32GB Internal memory via eMM

people keep getting this wrong and before you ask how i know i used the phone at CES and its also plastered across the white paper available from the SE Dev World.

The Phone is great and i cant wait to get my own as soon as my rep drops its off.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ShyamSasi:
Why can't they just improve the battery .... Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX has 3300 mAh battery without affecting the size of the device ... I really wish Xperia S had that battery :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mhyke13ph:
Xperia S

-Bravia Engine

-4.3" 720x 1280(342ppi) Reality Display

-1.5Ghz Dual-core

-Adreno 220 GPU

-1GB Ram

-1.8GB Internal Memory(User Available)

-32GB eMMC(Embedded Memory)

-12MP Exmor-R with 1080p Video and Fast Capture

-1.3MP Front Camera with 720p Video

-Anti Stain Shell(Dirt Repellent and UV Active)

-Fast Charge Capability(Pro's of non replaceable battery)

-NFC, GLONASS, WIFI Direct, Gyro

-Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich

-PlayStation Certified(It's getting some Traction now lots of PS1 Games and some PSP Games Available)

-Price is just Right

What stopping you from buying an Xperia S? No Micro SD card slot and a Replaceable Battery?

but for me I think that 32GB is Big enough for me, including the 1.8GB for the Apps to be installed, My Arc got 16GB and I have lots of HD Games and 720p Video's I still have 3GB free

and having a non replaceable battery is not all Cons ;)

I rarely remove my Battery and Micro SD Card, the only time I removed the Battery and Micro SD Card when i upgraded it to 16GB and Inserted my SIM
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Flo95:
Stay with the Arc and make your ROM even better (if that's even possible ^^)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] RockitOut11:
i was planning to change my SE Xperia X8 with an SE Xperia Arc S, which is 300€ here in Portugal, but now i'm waiting for the Sony Xperia S

anyone knows how much it will cost? More or less? Estimative?

Sorry for my bad English
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Flo95:
Here you can preorder it for 449€
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DevilsArc:
Hi guys thanks for your replies, by the way, in a girl :-)

I am mostly excited for the internal memory upgrade, better battery and dual core processors. In all honesty my arc is laggy at times, the battery only lasts a day, and I'm tired of no front facing camera. These were the things that excited me the most, the design is nice too. Don't get me wrong I do love my arc, it just seems to be slow at times, I have no idea how to use custom roms for it either
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] abcdelse:
When the device hangs and not restart itself.. i open the battery, if this happens to xperia s how to?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dp94:
There'll be another method to do this.

Maybe a long press power button, maybe something else. ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Rycon33:
I'll probably wait for the performance of Arc when it runs official ICS. If it's good enough for me then I guess I'll have to skip xperia s and stick with arc for a little longer until SE releases quad core and renew my data contact.

Micro-SIM is much worse than no card slot for me. Now sony is copying iphone pathetic there is no excuse for having micro-sim and non replaceable battery in a relatively thick phone.

[GUIDE] DOWNGRADE & S-OFF & ROOT on INCREDIBLE S 2.3.5 HBOOT 2.0.0 NOT UNLOCKABLE

DOWNGRADE & S-OFF & ROOT on INCREDIBLE S 2.3.5 HBOOT 2.0.0 NOT UNLOCKABLE with HTCDEV

This was my personal situation:

-I bought (02-02-20121) an INCREDIBLE S used which was updated to last firmware OTA and was never unlocked with the HTCDEV method.

- When I tried to unlock it with the HTCDEV method at step 10 of the procedure, after submitting the token, I encountered an error (error code 173) and the procedure inevitably failed.

-I had no chance to use alpharevx method because of the HBOOT 2.0.0

-So I had to manage a solution, and this is what I found.

PREREQUISITES:

a) ADB, Fastboot (create a folder in you main partition eg C:\ADB and put inside adb.exe, fastboot.exe, AdbWinApi.dll)

b) HTC Drivers (install and unistall HTCSync) http://www.htc.com/www/SupportViewNews.aspx? dl_id=1073&news_id=907

c) knowing how to use the command prompt (in my example you have to start cmd.exe, then type "cd c:\ADB) and then type the command you need

PROCEDURE:

1) Download TacoRoot from here ttp://rootzwiki.com/_/articles/tacoroot-brings-temporary-root-to- all-htc-devices-r281 put the file tacoroot.bin into the ADB folder and follow the instruction to get a TEMP ROOT

If the cellphone stuck into boot loop you have to --undo the temp root and try again.

After you get temp root you can verify it using the command "adb shell" in the command prompt (this symbol # shold appear).

2) Use this tool to downgrade the ROM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1373697

and then flash the RUU ROM used to downgrade http://www.multiupload.com/M1VBIVTE4K

3)Follow this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1137008 to get s-off

4)Use this Unlock Root to get full root permissions http://unlockroot.com/

5) Flash the ROM you like!!;)

I hope this guide could be helpfull for someone.

Many thanks to the authors of the gides/tools/thread I used to solve my problem.

Sorry for my poor english
