Yea it is true. It also messes with your media player and wont show all the albums. Messes with keyboard auto entry. The list goes on. Bottom line is most people that have used Advanced Configuration or KaiserTweak and are getting horrible speeds THIS IS WHY. Still looks like too many people don't read through the thread though and see that the problem has already been discovered.

Also lets clear one thing up...

DisH registry setting

1 is ENABLED

0 is DISABLED

NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. Setting 2 does NOTHING for me besides loose my H icon and slow my speeds, but thats not to say it wont work outside the states.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] wmm:
I don't know why you say this. I frequently get close to 1500 kbps, running the stock AT&T ROM and with disH set to 1. It may be different in your part of the country, but here in Massachusetts west of Boston, the standard setup works great. (And maybe that's because I haven't used Advanced Config. I'd prefer to do my own registry hacks, because then at least I have some modicum of understanding exactly what's being done.)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] :
I for one don't think AdvancedConfig inherently causes any issues. My speeds do not seem to be affected regardless of what I do in AdvancedConfig.

I'm using Da_G's rom, which stops some AT&T stuff from disabling your HSDPA from what I've read on that rom thread.

Never said everyone. I said "many". But what I was referring to was a previous post of mine stating AT&T ROM specific, mentioned no others. Sorry for the confusion.

Registry Help

Awesome, I didn't backup my registry before changing the value and Total Command's awesome feature of renaming any directory clicked once has ****ed my **** up. Thankfully I can get back to the registry.. can someone check and tell me what the ?s should be?

/HKLM/platform/

/HKLM/?

/HKLM/security/

/HKLM/services/

/HKLM/snd/

/HKLM/?

/HKLM/software

Please reply soon, this is an emergency.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] wmm:
I have nothing at the places you have put "?" -- security immediately follows platform and software immediately follows snd.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Tempest790:
On my Fuze, I don't have any listings in the registry where you have the question marks. They go in this order: Platform, Security, Services, Snd, and Software. Did you have entries that weren't on a stock phone?

Also, I see my suspicions were correct about the tweak programs interfering with the 3G speeds. My phone worked great until I installed some of them. Now, 3G only works with a high signal strength. At home where I get a weak signal (1-2 bars) my internet absolutely refused to work unless it's in EDGE mode. It worked fine before.

I hope I won't have to hard reset my phone. I just got it set up the way I like.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Mr_Armageddon:
3G hitting 1500+ kb/s

I am using the stock AT&T ROM with just a few registry modifications, none of which have anything to do with HSDPA.

I just ran a series of speed tests on Speetest.net while tethered to my notebook, and I am getting promising results. The icon says "3G" and never shows an "H", and I am consistently getting over 1,500 kb/s down and 300 kb/s up. I am in the Denver Metro area, so maybe it has to do with location more than a ROM limitation.

[URL=http://www.speedtest.net][/URL]
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DrunkenOstrich:
Damn, I hate you :p

Do u mind running those directly from the phone (not tethered) as well? I'm curious if there's much difference, as some posts in other threads (and this one) seem to point to a different set of speeds between tethered and non-tethered (with tethered usually seeming to be faster).
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Tempest790:
I did get HSPDA speeds prior to the hack, but after it went from 400-500 to about 1200. I don't think the 2 in the registry works completely in North America. The 1 has stuck and seems to work fine ene with one bar of service.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Mr_Armageddon:
I attempted to use speedtest.net on Opera 9.5 but it requires Flash 7 so it wouldn't run properly. Most of the speed test sites require Flash 7 or Java, so Opera wouldn't run them, and since Skyfire won't work now that I have a VGA display, I was limited on speed test options.

I was able to get this site to run a speed test:

http://reviews.cnet.com/internet-speed-test/

But I don't trust the results. It was showing a download of around 800 kb/s. I then went to the same site on my desktop using an 8mb/s DSL, and the same speed test kept on telling me that my download speed was 2mb/s. I tried it various time and on 2 computers and kept getting the same results. So I don't trust the mobile speed test results since it was nowhere close with my DSL speed.

If you know of a good mobile speed test that works with Opera 9.5 or IE Mobile, let me know and I will compare tethered vs on phone speed tests.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Mr_Armageddon:
Un-tethered results

Dang reply posted twice.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DrunkenOstrich:
You can hit http://www.dslreports.com/mspeed and if you do the 100k test it will say "results unstable try a different file" and will give you an option for 1MB download test.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Mr_Armageddon:
I tried that one a few times. Averaged around 1200 kbps. I also tired the cnet one again and this time I got 1350 kbps.

So from my trials with tethered and non-tethered speed tests, there only seems to be a slight speed increase with a tethered set up, an increase of 200-300 kbps, and even then it may just vary with each testing experience.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DrunkenOstrich:
Thanks man.

Its funny, this morning i tried another test and got 1200! fastest i've ever seen since i got the fuze. i'm starting to consider holding on to it. it's really sporadic with results across the board from timing out, to 200, to 600, to 1200. but at least i have hope now that my device is actually _capable_ of good speeds :D

might start playing with ROMs now, sounds like NATF's is the best if you want to stay close to stock.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
I think this is it!

I think I found out some more about the HSDPA/HSUPA behavior of the FUZE.

Install the attached CAB and you will have all the settings unter

Start->Settings->Connections Tab->Advanced Network

Now there is the factory HSDPA/HSUPA selector and some other useful stuff. The settings stick after soft reset. This is tested with the original AT&T rom.

Speed test results before mod: 250kb/s - after mod: 1186kb/s (H icon and 2 bars in suburban Atlanta,GA)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Da_G:
I was just coming over here to make a cab like that, but I would've <noparm>'ed it rather than setting it, but that works great too :)

Also you should set HSDPACat to 8 to get faster download speeds.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
Just tried that but unfortunately no better results. Rather slower. Dropped to 750-900kbits now. I till try to revert back to 6 and see if that makes a difference. Maybe AT&T doesn't support cat8 (as someone mentioned earlier)...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Da_G:
Bummer! Works great in my ROM :( Might be the provxml's in the stock ROM messing with it..
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
What speeds do you get on setting 8 as opposed to 6 ? Where are you located?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Da_G:
On 6 i top out at under 1.8mbps, at 8 I can get over 2.2mbps.. southern california, riverside.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] asingic:
what is this 6 or 8 adjusmtent that you guys are making? I have no new menus on my advanced tab. But it did improve speed!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
After you install the CAB above, use a registry editor of your choice and edit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\HSDPACat

original value is 6, advised value is 8

Don't forget to *soft* reset your phone afterwards, NOT stylus reset but use a tool like AE button plus or psshutXP to initiate a SOFT reset, that will save the registry values first and reboot. Stylus reset loses the last changes!

Then you should get all the nice tabs in "Advanced Network"
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
UPDATE

Attached here is an updated version of the CAB file as well as the (zipped) reg file for direct import.

What this does is:

1) Activates the settings tabs for CSD, SMS and HSDPA/HSUPA in Advanced Network (In Settings/Connections)

2) Sets the HSDPA Mode to Category 8 (fastest mode ~7.2Mbits max possible)

3) Removes the HSDPA Disable setting found on all AT&T roms

4) Enabled the HSDPA Icon

5) Restores the much nicer looking H/3G/E/G connection icons in the task bar

2008-11-23: I have added a new cab that only changes 1-4. Connection icons stay untouched. use this if you like the AT&T factory icons.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] behrouz:
Thanks that cab works great. Could you make one that doesn't change the appearance of the icons?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Da_G:
Maybe you should post this cab in that other HSDPA thread in this forum.. alot of frustrated users there that might not be so frustrated if they try this cab..
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] behrouz:
how do you them back at least?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Tempest790:
Yay!!! Thank you so much. Finally got HSUPA working! 500+ on my uploads. My ping times went down about 40ms. I now get 150ms pinging Google. With HSDPA, I usually got 180-190ms. UMTS only gave my about 200-220ms.

Is the new H icon with the arrows specifically for HSUPA (does it let you know if your in an HSUPA area)?

My downloads are now hovering around 1500+ so I don't think we have 7.2 active yet. If so, AT&T is definitely throttling it down.

I tried that registry entry to activate HSUPA, but it didn't work. I take it more changes in the registry were required.

Thanks again! I am so happy with my Fuze now.

Update: I ran more tests and even got 977 kbps on my upload. This is awesome.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] carguy69:
can I just run this on a completely stock fuze, or is this something that has to be run on a phone that has Hard spl?

I dont want to screw up or brick my phone
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Tempest790:
I'm still using the stock ROM. I used the CAB version and it worked perfectly.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] adamantypants:
Wow, the first real step towards a fast connection for me. I'm averaging around 900kb/s now. I just hope this one really helps me this time. All the other tweaks (from this thread and other threads/websites) so far haven't really improved my speeds.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] wmm:
I downloaded and ran the .cab. I do get the extra pages in the "advanced network" setting, as well as the more-informative menu-bar icons. It didn't make any difference (so far) in performance, though -- I was getting 1200-1400 kbps download speeds before the change and am still getting 1200-1400 kbps. I've only tested it at my house, though (Massachusetts, west of Boston), so I need to try it in a few other places, too.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] cparkhorn:
Worked

Electron,

The cab worked for opening the advanced settings, and I set to HSDPA and HSUPA and it sticks so far. My speeds were good before, but the mobile browser and speed tests are erratic, I'll have to get to a good location to check tethered. My Cat was already set to 8, stock ATT Fuze, not sure why mine would and others would not, but who knows.

Not a big deal, but do you have to change the icons? I was pretty good with the large icon and a smaller one over the bars, is it possible to do a cab without the icon changes? Not a big deal, but if you can that would be great.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] goggin:
That's not my experience. I never isolated the cause, but I suspect some of the power saving settings were interfering with the way the system works and causing my 3G to be flaky, or if I modified the 6 buttons on the communications interface (available under something like Menu > More > .... or something like that). Never isolated what it was, but there was something along these lines distinctly triggered poor data connections for me.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] esq2b:
Thank you for the cab. I just got the following results, amazing speed for only 1-2 bars of service. My location is in Southern Ct.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
Hi all,

yes no problem, here is a cab that leaves the icons untouched. The icons do not need to be changed for better speeds, I just found over all the years having a winmo device, that they are more informative and less confusing than the original setting, because they show connected (arrows) and type of connection (E, 3G or H) on the left icon and your signal strength on the right icon, instead of mixing the information between the two.

Glad to hear that the cab has helped some :)

Network speed seems to be *VERY* dependent on time of day and location. No one has reported anything past 3mbit yet, so the network is definitely a big factor. For me these fixes have brought solid 1200-1800 speeds compared to the original super slow (<700) speed.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] iboj007:
Awesome call on enabling class 8. This one has made a huge difference for sure.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 64QAM:
FYI folks. Turning on the hsdpa icon will not net you faster data rates. The scheduling of hsdpa and hsupa are done at the network according to what available power is not being used. You can not set a specific speed since umts is bursty in nature. Use ms's netpersec to get your max peak datarates.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] adamantypants:
Okay, anybody in the Las Vegas area willing to divulge their speeds on AT&T. I've tested my phone in all corners of the city and I'm probably averaging 500kb/s for most of the day. I've tried all the tweaks in this thread and at best they work intermittenly. The best speed I've ever gotten was 1187 and that was at 2 am yesterday sitting on my upstairs balcony outdoors.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
Forget Las Vegas !! It's the worst place in the country when it comes to ANY 3G network. We believe that the network operators intentionally throttle speeds to make customers pay the ridiculously overpriced fees for wifi at the hotels. Seriously AT&T as well as Verizon were both below 250kbit in LV and back to ~2mbit right outside, about 10 miles down I15 (and that's in the DESERT!!!)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] NuShrike:
Problem I found with 5 is it hides WiFi. I cannot see my WiFi is on or not, nor if it is scanning for APs.

I think your CellularDataIconOptions=2 is only meant for WiFi-less devices.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] wmm:
Hmm. On my phone, when I turn wifi on the wifi icon pops up over the wireless icon. I haven't used wifi much since I installed this tweak, so maybe the wifi icon goes away after a while?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
With CellularDataIconOptions=2 the left icon is always dedicated to the data connection. That's why it shows the G,E,3G or H and the little data arrows when connected through cell network and it shows the wifi antenna and the arrows if you're using wifi for data access. the right icon is the cell signal strength which in case you're using wifi is only relevant if you want to make a call.

Has worked well for me for years, have been using this option since the 8525 came out with WiMo5...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] NuShrike:
How does it work when I have a 3G data connection established and I want it to show my WiFi is scanning for APs? This is usually when I'm running Navizon in the background scanning for WiFi/cell-towers while I'm browsing the web in the foreground.

When I tried it, it only showed cell strength, and to the left of it established H connection. It only popped up a WiFi indicator to the left of that when it failed to establish WiFi, but not the WiFi scanning for points indicator that is there normally (esp if you just turned on WiFi).
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] btprice2001:
Thanks for the cab! I did not test my speeds tethered before, but after installing the cab I got 1580 kbps down and 638 kbps up.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] adamantypants:
-____-

That's what I was afraid of. I guess I'll settle for my 600kb :(

Thanks
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
Hmmm. I guess if you need to see both in action you should stick with the CellularDataIconOptions=0 setting.

Does anyone here know what setting 1 is for? Too bad that with Microsoft, most of the stuff is always undocumented :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Droga:
A question? Has anyone ran the same speed test with 3 different browsers? I tried the same test with IE, Opera and Skyfire and got 1.5mbps, 978kbps and 3.71mbps respectively.. to the same site and in the same parking lot (a spot on our local mall where the HSDPA signal is 4 full bars). What gives? Arent they supposed to be the same or around the same speeds?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] newsflash40:
I don't think you can run a reliable speed test with Skyfire, since they are pushing and compressing data through their own server. I think difference in the results you got between PIE and Opera is normal, IME download speed can vary that much based on traffic, etc.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Tempest790:
Here is one of my fastest results. New Orleans, 5:57 am downtown:

It looks like I'm getting 3.6 mb HSDPA and 2 mb HSUPA.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Brendo:
it should be enabled by default (set as auto). and will automatically be used when it can find a hspda signal
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] cparkhorn:
I opened the .zip with notepad and see all the reg edits. Is it possible to load these from this file, or do I need to run the cab? Not sure if I can just move the zipped regedit file and run it in total commander or something like that?

The reason I ask is that after installing this cab, when I use the camera for burst or sports mode my whole phone goes haywire. The camera goes into slow motion etc, and then the home page is pixelated. Probably no way of knowing what it could be, but I'd like to do one change at a time and see if any of them are the culprit.

Thanks.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
Yes you can use the .reg file and import in TC. Or you just look at it and edit the registry one by one manually in TC's reg editor. Please let me know what you find. My camera works fine. Did you try again after uninstalling the cab and then it worked? I have no clue what the cab and the cam would have in common. The cab only changes a couple of reg settings :confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] cparkhorn:
Found it may be something different

I have no idea why, but I went into Diamond Tweaks on the camera section and Sport and Burst are set to 3 MP, I changed it back to 1 and they work correctly again. This happened both times I put on this cab, I went through and can't see how in the world they would be connected, but after this change there's no problem.

Thanks for the help, my speeds are great, but my boss just got a Fuze yesterday and I sat at a pub to make a bunch of tweaks for him and before making any changes other than open up the tethering, his speed test was 2400 down and 440 up. Northwest Austin, TX, no tweaks and 3G instead of H logo. Speeds on both our phones are great when tethering, but the numbers are still random up and down when using Opera or PIE dslreports mobile. 1.8 then 650. I don't think any of my speed test results on my mobile browsers are reliable to count on at all.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] adonishui:
I've installed the cab file and my speed increase only a little bit but not much of a difference that I noticed. I did some speed tests and I never got above 1 mb, it's always in the range of 300-700 or so. I am running the stock AT&T rom and residing in southern california. How come I am not getting the blazing speed that other users are getting?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
Because you (like me) live in Southern California, where streets and networks are always congested and cell infrastructure (because of strict ordinances and testing compared to other places) usually lags way behind. Parts of SoCal are still EDGE, when in 2006 all of Kansas City had blazing fast 3G :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DrunkenOstrich:
True that. Especially if u live in OC where they have to constantly battle just to put up antennas due to "aesthetics" even though the freeways already look like crap. Plus they put up those fake palm tree antennas anyway. It's frustrating to live in one of the most populated areas of the country and yet the phone service is so poor!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] electron73:
Yeah.. OC sucks most. Everything super expensive, crazy traffic, rude drivers AND poor cell service. At least in the Inland Empire I get almost consistent 3G arouns 1200-1500 kbps. LA and OC is always a pain :P
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] DrunkenOstrich:
Those things are all true for sure, but the weather by the coast can't be beat :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] 10332007:

The Difference

I am using the stock AT&T Rom on my Fuze, here are my speedtest results:

No Speed Mods:

After installing the advanced network mod and enabling HSDPA/HSUPA:

Not much of a difference for me in southern Indiana. It actually seems to have slowed a bit after the mod, but web pages seem to load a bit faster tethered and alot faster on the device using Opera.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] thunder6290:
I installed the advanced network cab.

I ignored the icon cab because I didn't want to change my icons. ( I think it only changed the icons. correct me if I'm wrong ).

My question is how I need to import the Reg file ? I never did it .

or if you can tell me exactly which keys you changed I can do it manually

Edit : Never mind, I found it . Just I cannot get more than 300KB in Toronto, Canada with stock At&t Radio and Rom. Any suggestion ?
