[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Compudizzal:
your are right

i agree with ya said.. but as I've said . .im not a developer.. and I'm intitled to my opinion. Sorry if the truth hurts. I know I'm not the only one feeling this way.

i've read a lot here and other sites. as you've seen I've been registered a little bit but dont comment much .. for the same reason as your and the guys below remarks..

just seems folks get all bent out of shape when the mirror is turned towards them.. i dont even plan to start making a ROM.. I just contribute to those that make quality ... and dont take away from what I pay for each month.. 4 lines the past 8 years!! ... Im truly not interested in I candy.. i pay for functionality .. not a degraded themed constantly breaking down POS....

all I said was lets get some real creative developers here and just take a look at whats going on internationally to get some idea's..

from a far it looks like a alot of talk and no real work being done.. No problem.. this phone wasn't made for kids anyways... its depressing to see amount of real work being done. just lots of smoke and mirrors to me.. So' I've chosen to root and remove bloat.. keeping it stock.. I can download HD widgets and copy most of those files and put a ROM and patch it with same ol hack's also..

Sorry if I stepped on you two guys toes... most would say "IF THE SHOE FITS!!!" I know it's probaly a small world your way so's you need all the clout and pumping up you can get.. (I love your work.. its the best.. OH . OH..great developer/(themes) please upload more.. we need more patch and past work Oh OH.)

sorry didnt mean it.. truly I didn't.. :highfive: gotta go shopping.. I wont come back to this thread so .. show a little professionalism and not post a reply.. I think you'd gain more respect/clout that way!!!

PS. Im a Sprint customer por vida .. or until "Truly Unlimited is Dead".. so ............ READ YA AROUND LATER'S in other threads.. done with this one.. A little excitement never hurt anyone........................................:silly:

sprints data the last 2 years has been horrible to say the least in my area (philly and south jersey)

BUT its "usable" especially since 80% + of the time I am on wifi anyway.

Here is what I do know. I pay $50 a month for essentially unlimited everything including LTE on my Note II (not yet) sure I only have 500 minutes but lets be real. I never come CLOSE to using those 500 minutes. ever. with unlimited any mobile and 7-7 N&W and free weekends. 95+% of my calling does not come out of the 500 minutes. (I usually use 200-300 minutes a month if I am really busy with calling for some reason) If I wanted too and did not mind losing LTE I could pay $30 a month for this Note II but I want the LTE so I am leaving it alone :)

I pay $35 a month for unlimited everything (no4g) on my Boost Mobile S3.

you just can't beat that with a 10ft stick. I can live with crap but usable data as long as I see light at the end of the tunnel and I do.

this does not mean you should not have a right to complain. IT IS atrocious the network speeds (I would KILL to get 284k down)

Here is what I am getting now.

I usually average around 40-60kB/s its strange I almost always get better UP than DOWN.

youtube does not work for CRAP (fixed data needs) Netflix works "ok" since it will dynamically adjust compression to fit the data pipe you have so just let it "buffer up" a little and it usually works fine.

pandora works fine and so does google maps.

Speech recognition was hit or miss (data) but with onboard recognition it works fine most of the time now too.

I deal with it because the alternative is NOTHING since I can not AFFORD any other provider.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] arabdrifter:
After soo many phone calls to Sprint about failed service, they granted me the airwave device free of charge. Just waiting on a net provider to set up shop, and will test it out. Right now, my area is experiencing horrendous service. Dropping everything from calls, texts..you name it. Had a supervisor apologize and assure me that things wont be this way for long. Told me that we have two towers in the area under heavy development. Regardless, was very polite and took care of my needs. I understand that it takes time and things don't happen overnight. For that, can bare with the rough service.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] xKrisx:
Just make sure you have that Airave active within 30 days of recieving it or they will charge you 150 $ for it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] arabdrifter:
Totally right. Sprint told me the same thing, that if I dont activate it will get a $150 charge/shipping/etc. Just need at&t to hurry their asses up. Tomorrow will do a $100 deposit required for service. Gonna do my own install(to save the $150 fee), and hopefully go online with this airwave.

I am getting horrible data speeds too. I say we tell sprint to give us faster data speeds. My cellphone internet speed is 2 times slower than my cable internet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nerys71:
dude 2 times slower or 1/2 your cable speed is AMAZING

I would KILL to get 3meg down 2 meg up (half what I get on cable)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkManX4lf:
Airave is only good for calling.... Sometimes not even that.... For data its pointless.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] xKrisx:
Airave is not pointless for Data. It provides EVDO Rev A speeds. 3mbps down / 1.5mbps up. That is if your internet provider doesnt suck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] nerys71:
yes it is pointless. because your WIFI will always be faster than your EVDO Rev A

and since your airave can only be as fast as your ISP connection it your wifi will ALWAYS be faster than your Airave which means IS IT kind of pointless.\

or does the airave not work like I think it does? (I thought it just used your ISP connection ??)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Omg_Its_Erie:
Its good for calls and sms but as far as data you might as well connect to wifi cuz ypur broadband Internet is gonna beat the 3g you'd get with the airave everyday so if you get no bars at all at your house its good but just trying to improve your data speeds it's a waste :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] xKrisx:
Ok, I get your point lol. But maybe someone doesnt have wifi lol. Its possible. I was just saying that Data is available through the Airave.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Omg_Its_Erie:
You need home Internet for the airave to work lol so either way if your home Internet is working the airave you might as well connect to your wifi cuz its at least the same speed as your airave if not faster cuz 3g is only 3 or so mb/s and Im pretty sure the broadband you'd be using to run the airave is faster lol also almost every isp offers you a wireless router so if you've got broadband you probably have wifi...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] A2CKilla:
My 4g is so fast i barely even connect to wifi anymore....just my 2 cents and as you can see faster then my wifi, now this is just when i tested now, i normally pull 25Mbps down on wifi and LTE, now that's saying something
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Omg_Its_Erie:
Heres what I get on lte and my Internets thru century link and only 10mbs. Im thinkin I should just cancel them and use wifi tether lol:D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] RoC1909:
Normal for me to. Bunch of crap if you ask me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] bignibb:
I can say that it is definitely getting better. I use to get between 500 under 1k on a good day but sometimes things look like this.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] someone0:
The best I ever seen is 32M down 10M up with 48ms ping time and that is when I have LTE in LA. For 3G I got around 3M by 1M.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Ashton_Durkhun:
My speeds have fallen drastically starting around 6 months ago. I was pulling 1.2mbps on average with spikes of 1.8mbps on all devices (SPH-A900, HTC EVO4G, Samsung Intrepid, and MotoQ (Q being my first smartphone 6+ years ago))

Now my a900 gets 200-300kbps on average though I have pulled upto 500 max, my iPhone5 and my mother's iPhone4S get 500-800kbps average with spikes upto 900kbps (neither has hit the 1mbps mark)

At lunchtime and dinner time my a900it drops to <200kbps, once even got down to 10-20kbps but usuall 100-200kbps at peak time. my iPhone though never dropped below 300kbps (I suspect they're prioritizing newer phones with more bandwidth)

LTE is not available here yet NV is supposed to go live in Jan, so will see what happens then with speeds and hopefully LTE
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] seoulkul:
speeds could be better or worse. i only wish i got lte inside my house, my phone drops back to 3g soon as i get into my house. however, about a month ago my lte would drop about 3/4 houses over from mine so it is getting better.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] arabdrifter:
Finally, have at&t high speed w/sprint air wave. Signal is full bars. Never seen it this strong ever. Very impressed. Airwave is a must for anyone with bad signal issues.

tappin n talkin w/my JDM TyTe Note 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkManX4lf:
I think you mean Airave. Also I think you are on Wifi. Airave uses your home broadband to transmit 3G and voice. 3g is good for about 3-4 megabit. Your picture... Looks like you are on Wifi. Also Airave is good for voice only.... Because if you get Wifi at home, why would you care about getting 3g....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] arabdrifter:
Yes, am aware of all you said buddy:D Was meaning to say, "with airwave/wifi", this phone is amazing. Needed the airwave for better voice. My area has horrible reception. Therefore, if people wanted to go airwave, its definitely a good idea.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] gmplr831@comcast.net:
Mine will fluctuate between 200k and 800k on a normal day. Just depends on the congestion of the tower.

This is the fastest 3G ive had.

My speeds hardly ever break 0.3mbs with full 3g
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] d12unk13astard:
Meh, sprints 3g cant even handle a youtube video on normal resolution without skipping/pausing every 2-3 seconds. Thats pathetic!

Chrome makes it a bit more bearable with it loading pages quicker and only pausing skipping every 6-7 seconds but still embarrassing compared to what sprint should already be offering like it does for other cities (LTE for cities smaller then mine... wtf)

Someone at my work tried talking smack about my phone being so slow against his iphail4s on att network. I said my phone is the shizzzzniat compared to yours its just the crappy network I have to deal with that drags it down. Think they were just jealous of my note2 since im the only one at my work that has one lol

How can you switch from Sprint to roaming but still have good data speeds. I don't understand :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] chris0160:
I had 1mbps 3g a few days ago although around 2 - 3 am. Lately it seems the network is getting more consistent that's with speed tests it use to jump up and down even for uploading its slowly getting better
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] RayTrue04:
4G reception overrides any inferior data like 2G/3G just like Wi-Fi would all of the above. So you can have sprint 4G coverage yet be roaming on the 2G network which is what handles voice calls and texting.. If he turns off CDMA/LTE to just CDMA he would drop down to 2G and his speed would crap out. Unless he has a corporate account then he could tap into some 3G roaming, otherwise he would just get 2G while roaming. Thorough enough explanation?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Paint pb Balla:
Idk if that screen shot showed up but if it did are those good speeds?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] icu814:
I dont understand either but it is happening to me. My signal strength shows good dBm but I get horrible voice reception. My data speeds are better than my home cable connection. My area shows to be good LTE data coverage but the voice coverage is low.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] blacktrump1974:
These are tested speeds in Lexington South Carolina for Sprint LTE.... 5 bars out of 6 for signal strength...just saying.

I just got a similar one but sadly I'm roaming on Verizon's 3G. Can't believe I've waited this long to flash prl 56015! Comes in handy when I'm out in places like at my friends like I am now where I get no coverage.. First time ever my phone sees 2mbps on 3G!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] madsquabbles:
over by palmetto state armory I was pulling 24Mb/s on my note 2! my Verizon s4 wasn't doing any better than that. I've even got a smidgen of 4g in Newberry. though the 2 tests I did only pulled about 1Mbs. it's still a sign of good things possibly coming.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] RayTrue04:
Sometimes I wonder? Are we really saving $$$ with Sprint or are we throwing it out the window paying for a service that can't provide what we need? Nowadays people don't even use their phone as a phone but as a PC on the go and it sucks that I can't enjoy it like I should. My Note still hasn't seen an LTE connection in its life and I'm sick of my pages not loading and giving me network errors. Sorry, morning rant my 3G is crap at the moment. Ten years and I might finally bite the bullet and switch to T-Mobile. They already have spots of 4G LTE here in Northern CT.. :( :banghead:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] madsquabbles:
...and it's back to crap in newberry. still get 4g in that small area, but it's now roaming AND it's only 900Kb/s on 4 Fricken G! all over this city i was roaming with the majority of my trip i had no data at all, and roaming phone service.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] darekz:
Tmobile is not bad. Im with them since Omnipoint.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] n19bmw:
Mine is way worse since i went to the Note2. With my Evo It was way better. I live in near Philadelphia on the Jersey side.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] madsquabbles:
i've finally hit a good spot in newberry,sc. near the police station downtown i was getting 29Mb/s. verizon was only getting 5Mb/s. i'd have to attribute that to the fact that i was the only one in newberry using 4g, lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Itchiee:
I love sprint, been with them for 10 years, but they are killing me... trying to use this Note 2 at HHN was beyond frustrating.

"Oh look 4g take 3 steps no signal, now roaming although not really, 3g is back oh it's gone, no signal message failed"

They updatde our phones with that dumb prl and our signals have gone to ****!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] midnighttoker:
Sprint recently deployed 4g in my area, Prescott WI. Found a location where I had 3-4 bars and got 15mbps download.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MikeyLee:
You're lucky to get that fast of a speed on 3g lol Our 3g in Phoenix is garbage. 4g is not too shabby. Here is a comparison.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] RayTrue04:
My 3G looks the same on Sprint's network. I was using Verizon's 3G at the time. Kind of made me feel like flashing a full Verizon prl to have those speeds permanently.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ffolkes:
Some therapeutic venting here... My 3G speeds during the day are around 50kbps (I have seen 13kbps around lunch time in years past, I'm not exaggerating. Remember, that's kiloBITS not kiloBYTES) and around 700kbps at night. The speed at night proves the problem isn't my device or tower/radio issues - it's simply over-saturation and lack of a proper backend on my local towers, which becomes greatly exacerbated during the day. But whatever. The real kicker is I finally got LTE in my area...and during the day it's even slower than 3G. Unfreakinbelievable. At night I get <3000kbps down on LTE, which isn't too bad. But during the day it drops to the point where I can't even do a reliable speed test, everything just times out waiting. So, so disappointing after waiting for 4G for so long. :/ Not to mention it drops out the instant I set foot in any structure, even wood, and even at night.

Venting over.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkManX4lf:
Same here. 3G speeds are awful. The sprint site says my area has "fair" signal LTE. But my GN2 or my EVO LTE cant either.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tatoniss:
I know you have been waiting for a long time but maybe wait just a bit longer. I live in Wichita KS and the network here is getting better and better. Its really nice. At first it was spotty but it is improving. Even more impressive to me is at work I could just barely get 1x but it would drop a lot. Now I have 2 bars and lte.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] XZ3R0:
Ive been trying to get an Wireless Xbox 360 controller working on my GNex. If i plug in the wireless receiver it stays off unless i hold the sync, but turns off after a few seconds. One time i rebooted with it plugged in and i was able to navigate the home screen for a bit then it died. I tried plugging it into a powered USB Hub and it worked great and I was able to play several levels of Dead Trigger with no issues.

It seems like the usb port isn't putting out enough power for this.

HDMI over MHL also flickers and cuts out frequently, is this also do to some weird power fluctuation? I always turn off LTE before i use MHL as i read that that interfere but that doesn't fix it.

Anyone know about these two problems? Are they related as i suspect? Is my device just defective?

[Q] mi7Rom WP7.8 Edition Nokia Mod v2 - phone connection problems

PLEASE SEE MY THREAD BELOW DATED

OMNIA 7 , Omnia 7 General FORUM

Hello

Firstly thank poloche very much for the WP7.8 Nokia v2 rom. Been using it for a while and i'm generally quite like it, in fact I love it.

I'm having a problem with my phone, Omnia 7, but im not sure its the rom.

The issue is that my phone has a good connection. Data works fine however, sometimes calls dont come through despite having a good signal.

i.e. data is working fine... but people who call me the call goes to voicemail and when i try to make an outgoing call its just dead silent and shows that it is trying to connect...

I tried restarting when this phenomenon occurred once and that didnt work. I took the battery out and restarted and that seemed to do the trick...

But this is just anecdotal...

I dont know if this is my network O2 Germany or the rom....

I'd really appreciate help on this. I love the rom. it looks great... just my phone is being a bit funny...

Appreciate all the great work.

Alice

PS maybe you could post this on the forum so other people can give this comments as well.
[General Questions and Answers] cdotj89:
Now currently on my XperiaS im using AOKP based on JB... and its EPIC.

Thing is i recently stopped using MIUI and i had been using that since late 2010 when it was based on android 2.3 and it bought a whole new lease of life to my beloved Motorola Milestone.

Now MIUIv4 has been a whole new ballgame, with many many bugs being left unresolved despite complaints, laggy, unresponsive interface that left my dualcore device feeling obsolete (even when using an overclock kernel @ 1.8ghz)

But already i am seeing comments here and there from admins themselves about MIUIv5 is in the process of being made, hence the neglect MIUIv4 has been going through recently... to me though it just sounds like an excuse.

Does anybody have any news on MIUIv5 so early in the game? (Most likely not, but it was worth a shot)

I was curious what peoples expecations are for the new ROM and what the devs should do differently if you are to continue using it and not go elsewhere like i did.
[General Questions and Answers] FullXion:
Maybe i'm not the best person to comment on this, but i own an Xperia Pro, a neglected device which has been steadily but not speedily gaining a very small library (or bookshelf) of custom roms. From the top of my head, two or three of these are based on Miui v4, and these are all dodgy and with bugs aplenty. Even then, i have stuck with Miui so far, simply because i prefer the experience to stock Sony.

I know that if miui v5 comes out before my phones (rapidly approaching) end of life and by some miracle gets ported to my phone, or if (infinitely more likely) i get a new phone and it's available on that, if there are dramatic changes to the ui i won't choose it over miui v4, because to me it's the easiest to use and most well made android ROM available (especially compared to cyanogenmod and aokp).

The above is all opinionated nonsense, feel free to ignore if it somehow offends/angers you :P
[General Questions and Answers] Card83:
I agree that MIUI 4 has been largely underwhelming. I loved MIUI on my original Droid because of how snappy and responsive it made the phone. It seems that with every release, a handful of minor annoying bugs end up unresolved, and now I'm at the point where I don't even consider flashing it on any of my devices. I hope version 5 rectifies this, but I'm not going to even consider flashing it until I see proof that it's back on the right track. I realize that the devs can only do so much, and I do appreciate what they have been able to do with it thus far, but it really needs to get back to its roots of being the quickest alternative available.
[General Questions and Answers] cdotj89:
nah of course thats your opinion... thats what i wanted, not just a fanboy argument that made no sense.

it is very frustrating to me that MIUI is very easy to use (iphone easy) in fact my mother if thinking of moving to android and if thats the case id have to install MIUI because android stock isn't the most user friendly.

What your MIUI thats buggy... is that based on android 2.3?... If so thats strange because thats the version id expect to be almost perfected on all GB devices by now.

I promise you though... (personal opinion not trolling on MIUI lol) ...if your next device is on MIUI based on ICS and not JB... leave it stock or put it in a stock based ROM for a snappier experince. :D
