You need to be rooted. Flash using Rom Manager. You don't need to rename it. Reboot into recovery using Rom Manager, go to flash zip from sdcard, choose the radio zip, then go to reboot system.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chopes:
So read through most of this thread and I can't seem to find a definitive answer. Does this provide a speed increase or not? Some people says it does, others say it doesn't.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevinunderscore:
I can positively say that it made my upload rates 4x faster than they've ever been, but downloads remained about the same. I can't positively say the same will happen for you, but the process is pretty simple so I'd say it's worth a shot.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noiz7:
Yeah, it seems it just depends on your phone. I saw my upload speed increase and download stay about the same or go down a bit. You can always try it out and see what happens and if you don't like it just flash the old radio back on the phone.

My stock non-rooted N1 updated through OTA has this: 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.12_7, which seems "lower version" than the Korea's radio.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rfm2113:
Here's my input:

Wife and I both have stock 2.2 T-Mo Nexus Ones. Hers was always a bit faster than mine, 1.8mbps down on mine, 2.1mbps down on hers. I just rooted, flashed clockwork, and flashed the new radio on my phone, left hers stock. I'm now getting 3.4mbps, she's still getting 2.1mbps. Upload speeds unchanged. We're in NYC in a 3G area. I'll leave it on and see if anything is adversely affected.

are they always this retarded???

http://pocketnow.com/android/is-the-nexus-one-t-mobiles-first-hspa-phone

they are claiming that the korean radio update makes the nexus one the first hspa+ capable phone. What are they smoking over there?

Most of t-mobile's smartphones can experience faster speeds on hspa+. My speeds went from 2-3mbps to 4-6mbps when hspa+ hit here, but there won't be an official hspa+ smartphone till later this year.

Bluetooth speed improved from aprox 175 kps to 216 kps, tried to mantain the same conditions, all max speeds.

Anyone can confirm this?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmarti:
Flashed the Korean radio on my N1 and there's no difference in speeds. same place same desk using speedtest.net app.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peliROJO:
This is the same speed increase I saw when they turned on HSPA+ next to my work. Not all towers are getting it at the same time.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djstaid:
I upgraded as well and saw some pretty decent speed increases. Tested in the same spots (home & work) the same day and there was about a 2x increase in down speeds and 3x increase in up speeds.

Not going to say this update is the magical snake oil that everyone Nexus owner needs... but so far seems to have helped. I did not notice any changes in reception though.

Fastest I have seen so far (since the update) has been 2.6M down and 1M up. I am in the Detroit / Ann Arbor area.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danshur:
Previously as in last month tests here in seattle got me 2.96 Mbps at most. Prior to that I never got more than 2.0 Mbps

I flashed the radio and at first my speeds got worse, I was only receiving 1Mbps or less. After 30 minutes I tested some more and got speeds between 3.0 to 3.36 so I thought my speed improved. Just to verify I got my friend outside to do a test on his phone as well, he has stock 2.2 radio on his nexus one. We were in the same location with full 3G bars and ran 10 tests each. Results were inconsistent, always from as low as 600kbps to about 3Mbps. This tells me that this radio has nothing to do with any speed increase, its just random. If you want to verify make sure you remove all variables that you are not testing if possible. Here are some guidelines:

Use 2 nexus one devices with 2 different baseband versions but same OS build

Remove all apps that access the internet on their own. Otherwise you may be testing while your twitter app is checking for updates you know what I mean?

Always test using same software (I used speedtest.net app, make sure it uses the same server to test speed)

Run the tests after midnight or some time you know most people in your area are sleeping because you cant be sure you're the only one pinging that server.

Run tests at the same time (press the test button at the same time on both devices)

Run at least 10 times within 15 min or so.

Email logs to yourself and calculate the min max and average from both devices. If you do this process more than once you can even get some numbers for you +- rate.

From what I saw difference was only 5kbps on average, so no improvement.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
They may very well be retarded, and spend a lot of time playing football in the back yard but not being able to run very well.

The radio in the N1 is very advanced. I see no reason why it couldn't be updated to HSPA+ just like the towers are being updated. This is providing the DSP is fast enough to handle the newer protocol.

hi guys can i flash this by goin on rom manager and then install rom from sd?

i dont see the zip file when i try to do it by recovery.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueman101:
make sure the zip file is in the root directory of your sd card and not in the downloads folder. Yes rom manager should be able to handle it.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcohenlv:
They dont even have HSPA+ in your area only regular 3G

So of course you are not going to see a speed increase, no one other then who is in the areas listed above will actually see the HSPA+ Speeds.

I live in Tampa, Florida, but when I use speedtest.net it says my server is Atlanta, Georgia. Is this normal or I missing a setting someplace? I checked the settings and the closest server is Atlanta, Georgia.

Any advise is welcome and appreciated.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueman101:
sounds like there just isn't a server in Florida or at least nearby you but it shouldn't matter. If your area still has HSPA+ then you will get faster speeds.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragongunner86:
Thanks for the quick reply. FYI though I installed on my wifes unrooted N1 and hers shows a tampa server. I dont know what gives.

Best,
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blueman101:
It sounds like its a problem with speedtest's servers and not HSPA+'s network.

Oh well, so long as you get a speed increase then you are connected to HSPA+

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Siran:
I can confirm the 4x upload speed increase after flashing Radio 5.08. I made several speed-checks with speedtest.net before and after flashing and it would report around 320kpbs, afterwards 1300kbps which is more upload speed than my DSL at home!

great improvement for me!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dai323:
What can I say....THIS WORKS. My speed has literally TRIPLED after flashing this. Im running CyanRC3 on Vodafone network in Berlin Germany.

TOO MUCH AWESOME.

I was very skeptical at first, but on my end, I can confirm this has TRIPLED my download speeds, and has more than tripled my uploads.

In a word...WOW.

Flashed the new radio via AmonRa recovery. No battery drain, no significant upload or download increase, no big deal. Any ideas why?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rimher:
Ok, so I moved the radio signed zip to my main folder and I went to Install ROM from SD Card in Rom Manager. I select the update and it's asking me to Backup and Wipe data and cache. Should I do that, or is it just and update without wiping anything?

Why don't you flash it through recovery?

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c00ller:
You should be able to use almost any Sense 2.1-based theme... for example ones that work for Fresh, nfinitefx's stock ROM, etc. The only ones that will for sure not work are ones for darchdroid since it is AOSP based and not Sense. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chromiumleaf:
Yes, this is pretty much correct 8 or 9 times out of 10. Pay attention to which ROM the themes and mods say they are made for, cuz not all of them work on any ROM and may mess up your phone. Always nandroid backup before trying anything. Most of the ones for Fresh and DamageControl *should* work on nfinitefx45 ROMs, but aren't always guaranteed cuz of the differences in the frameworks.

Check out this 2.1 Catalog thread for a huge collection of themes, mods, etc.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wellynz:
Hi everyone. If somebody needs to move my thread then please do to the correct area :)

Just got my Nexus One today and loving it so far. Im now on the lookout for some apps.

I read somewhere (could of been on this forum, not sure) that there is an app that tells you how much data you are using/have used - what is the name of that please?

Also is there such an App which tells you when you have lost your Wi-Fi signal/When you are using 3G data and not Wi-FI? (I know you can just look at the notification bar, but with me being a new user Ill most likely forget)

Also looking for some "must have" apps.

Thanks in advance for all the help - it is greatly appreciated :)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djmcnz:
Because your from New Zealand... :) although a search might have helped... ;)

OSMonitor (free on the market) will show you your data usage under each interface on the Network tab. Also there are widgets on the Market for this including a free one called "3G Data Usage" and another called "Traffic Counter" - if you search for "data usage" on the Market you'll get a few results.

WiFi Status is the other app you're looking for.

Now, try my rom and support another Kiwi! :D
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sunnylicious:
This is my 2nd Samsung Vibrant, and I'm getting the same error message as before:

A red SD card in the notification bar on top with the message "Low on space - Database storage is getting low error message"

This phone is NOT rooted and does not have any type of task killer running. It is running the stock version of the OS.

When I check storage I have the following:

SD Card Total Space 1.84GB Available Space - 417MB

Phone Storage Total space 12.78GB Available Space 12.52GB

Application Storage Available Space 1.59GB

Running Services shows only the usuals...SWYPE, facebook etc

Available: 23MB_123... Other:53MB in 4 services

I have already returned a vibrant because of this same issue. I def do NOT have too many apps installed.

The biggest app is Dolphin Browser HD and it was using 12mb...I've cleared cache on all apps that I can clear cache on and still have this issue.

I have rebooted, reseated SIM, SD, Battery numerous times with no luck.I have even taken it to the t-mobile store where I purchased the phone and they have even replaced my SIM card.

I do not have an abundance of text messages stored (17 conversations as I have frequently deleted them)

I'm getting real tired of this....Any ideas?

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sunnylicious:
Yes, I tried to swap out the micro sd card from my old G1 with the one I got with the Vibrant. I've also exchanged the phone once and seen the error on both phones. I can only assume the error is caused by an application I installed on both phones,...Pandora, Dolphin, mixzing etc etc
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ttabbal:
Sounds to me like you need to get the phone fresh back to stock, and install one app at a time till you find the one that's causing the problem. If you have root and adb, you could do a "du -h /data/data" and see if something is dumping a ton of data in there. Check /data/dbdata as well. It's got to be something you are installing or doing though, I've never seen a problem like this and I hack on my Vibrant.

And I don't think the SD has anything to do with it, run without one installed for a while. You don't need one, you have 16GB of internal flash, you can live without an external SD for a little while. :)

Im getting the same error

I have shoot me running so i can grab the exact error whenever it comes up next. It tells you to delete call records, calendar and other things. After the warning comes up the phone is extremely laggy and requires a reboot in some instances.

I was about to start my own post but decided to search first. I even went in and deleted all but today on my call history
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ttabbal:
I'd say /data/dbdata is getting full. Check with root explorer. Did you do the old lag fix? If so, revert and install one of the newer versions. If not, you need to figure out what app is loading lots of data in there. "du -h /data/dbdata" post the results and maybe we can help.

From what i can tell i think its my contacts..... for some reason Gmail is syncing just email adresses with no phone numbers and visa versa. Also i have found that under my section for "john" i have John then 4 linked contacts that are unknown. I wonder if this is causing the disruption. This all happened today as well as my Facebook links no longer linked to contacts.

EDIT: I deleted 241 of my random contacts that were emails i had made i will report back later to see if this happens again.

EDIT2: The red memory card came back , this time i clicked on it and deleted the bloated 80meg contact section didnt seem to delete contacts off my phone however will update if this fixes it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ttabbal:
Try not using facebook contact sync. I've heard of people having problems with it. At least it should help you figure or if that's the problem. Or I suppose you could move the contacts db to another location. I have a fairly busy gmail contacts list and haven't seen nearly that level of data being used for it.

After deleting the bloated Contacts i haven't gotten the error (i was sure to export the list from Google prior to deleting it) Also removing the Facebook Apps ability to sync and only leaving stock brought back the Contacts facebook updates.

Hey,

I had the same problem on my galaxy s, it seemed that the Samsung app store caused the problem with me. I tried downloading asphalt 5 when the phone prompted that the database memory was low.

Probably text messages. I was getting that same message until I deleted all my text messages (I had about 4000). Im still a packrat that likes to keep that stuff though, so I got the SMS Backup app from the Market. I set the SMS thread limit to 200 messages per conversation, and have SMS Backup backup all my texts every 6 hours. So I still keep them, but instead of taking up database memory, they get stored in a special label in Gmail that I can access on my phone anyways.

EDIT: I apologize, I see the OPs problem was definitely not with text messages, though this information may still be useful to some people who are getting this message.

Ok I had the issue with my contacts2.db becoming very large (approx 90mb) and found a solution. Im posting it here in case it helps others. The solution had nothing to do with my handset or android in general. it was ALL to do with google contacts.

when i logged on to google contacts and tried to export "My Contacts" in an effort to fix up the problem with contacts2 on my android device being so large i discovered something weird. There is an option in the export panel to export "All Contacts" as an alternative to "My Contacts". Now "My Contacts" showed me having approx 400 contacts but "All Contacts" showed as 390000+ contacts.... WTF???... Anyhow having pulled the contacts2.db off my droid and used a sqlite browser to examine the data I noticed there seemed to be at least 300 copies of each contact. So it seems like droid is syncing "All Contacts" from google instead of "My contacts" (unverified, just my assumption).

Within google contacts there is a function to "Find and Merge duplicate contacts" which seems to chose a subset (maybe 10 or so) of your contacts and search for duplicates and merge them into a single record. After performing "Find and Merge duplicate contacts" continually until i received the "No Duplicates found" response i then went back to the "export" function and noticed my "ALL Contacts" had come down from 390000+ to approx 400.

Then on my droid i went into settings=>applications=>manage application=>All=>contacts storage and hit "clear data" and rebooted it. The contacts resync'd from google contacts and then when i checked "contacts storage" it had come down from 90mb to 1.4mb.

I have no answer at this stage as to why google contacts was getting so many duplicates. My only guess is that it is something to do with the sync back from droid to gcontacts. Anyhow I just thought i would publish the solution i found as I have seen plenty of threads from other people with the same issue.

Good luck !

Hello everyone.

I'm from Bombay, India.

Currently I'm using Vodafone EDGE and the download speed is 30kbps and upload 20kbps. Well I find it too slow.
