Change hsupa to 10

HTC Inspire not Desire
[HTC Inspire 4G] EvoXOhio:
Just changed to 10 and no difference. I don't have to reboot or restart anything after making the change, right?

EDIT: Never mind I see that I do have to reboot. I rebooted and still no improvement.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Mustang302LX:
I always reboot twice after editing the build prop.
[HTC Inspire 4G] EvoXOhio:
Tried that and still no luck. :(

Any chance this could be because I am on the unlimited plan that was carried over from my iPhone?
[HTC Inspire 4G] ajdrausal:
No the only thing that is carried over is the price, We connect to wap.cingular as the APN and so does every other device, unless you are (paid) tethering then you gain access to isp.cingular. It is probably the area that you are in that ATT has not enabled the towers to even send an HSUPA signal

[HTC Inspire 4G] HDCS:
Weird, weird, weird. I've fiddled & reset every one of these properties in any and every combo mentioned in here, but I just never see uploads past ~300kbps range. Downloads have reached up into 3 Mbps range however, happily. Any other ideas I can try?

I've got CM7 final running and I'm in San Jose.

OT Hello fellow North Coaster! ;) I'm up north of you in Redwood Valley, between Ukiah and Willits.
[HTC Inspire 4G] HDCS:
Not at all as I've not touched the radio beyond what CM7 may have changed by default. Also I've seen solid improvement on downloads with the build.prop tweaks so I don't think I'm switching between the network types for the worse.

The ~300kbps thing is particularly interesting to me as it's the same upload limit that AT&T fessed up to restricting their "4G" handsets to. But I thought CM7 had that artificial constraint bypassed so I dunno what's up. :confused:

Ah well. Shouldn't complain too much I suppose considering how much better downloads I'm consistently getting now.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Chowlz:
I edited hsdpa to 13 and got around 2.5mbps. Changing hsupa to 6 or 7 didn't seem to make a difference - still around .30 mbps or under.

[HTC Inspire 4G] cocchiararo:
Dunno if many people are using the stock rooted rom that bubby's tool installs.

I got my inspire 2 days ago, and thats what i am running.

i noticed that the build.prop file begins with some ril.ro lines that are repeated later on with different values, dunno if the first ones or the second ones are the ones used.

"# ace RF team request

ro.ril.enable.dtm = 1

ro.ril.gprsclass = 12

ro.ril.hsdpa.category = 10

ro.ril.hsupa.category = 6

ro.ril.hsxpa = 3"

most of those are at the begining of the file, one about AGPS there twice too, and maybe more.

ps: i didn't know where else to post this, no one seemed to care in bubby's thread :P

ps: we have no such thing as HSUPA or HSDPA+ in my country, i could only dream with the speed you guys get when you "fail" to skip AT&T limitations, let alone the speeds you want to achive :P
[HTC Inspire 4G] jmbneaf:
The ONLY way I have found to recover my lost HSUPA was to

1) do a nandroid of my current setup

2) re-do the ACE Hack Kit. I did it fully just like my phone was new from AT&T

3) restore my nandroid (from step 1 above)

I'm not sure what the ACE Hack kit does during the downgrade, but I do have the speed tests to confirm it.

I've been reading this all morning. Could the people with the best

speeds please post the radio Rom they are using and the settings. I'm

at stock radio so I'm going to try and edit the props. I have the

advantage of looking at my window and I the 4G tower is 1/4 mile away.

I'm in Gilbert, Arizona (outside of phoenix).

I believe its a matter of truly matching the correct RIL and the correct radio and these new tweaked out settings.

Lets make this easy for people whom are not as technical.

Consider RIL the Drivers and the Radio the hardware.

Everyone knows when you install new hardware you need new drivers.

Please read here for a overview of the hardware and software. It fills in the blanks and questions.

Also for those of you whom don't know about this little trick on how to set the phone ONLY to HSPDA. I work from home and the phone is always plugged in.

If this helps you give me thanks.

Open the Phone dialer and type in *#*#4636#*#* (note the symbols are backwards)

Tap on Phone Information

Scroll Down and set your Preferred Network Type to GSM auto (PRL) - NOTE this does not disable 3G or HSDPA! Speed tests still show I am receiving speeds up to 2.4mbps - NOTE there will still be the 3G and H icons in your status bar

GSM Only - Only uses in G/E and never switches to 3G/H. Should have minimal battery usage.

GSM Auto (PRL) - Automatically switches between G/E/3G/H based on the PRL (Preferred Roaming List) for a provider on your phone. Not supported by all providers and may not be supported in certain regions. Should have moderate battery usage since it uses a predefined list to switch.

WCDMA Preferred - Automatically switches between G/E/3G/H based on the best/strongest signal available and is supported by all providers. Hashigh battery usage since it constantly scans the network for the strongest signal to switch.

WCDMA Only - Only uses HSDPA and will not switch to G/E/3G even if the HSPDA signal is too low. Use this only if you use your phone in a area with good coverage. Should have moderate battery usage.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kofrad:
Any idea if the GSM Auto should work on AT&T? I'm kind of leery to mess with that particular network setting without knowing what support my carrier/phone will have.

Definitely willing to help by sharing settings and such when I start getting this all figured out!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Dashaiva:
Be warned!

I have discovered (at least for me) that messing with the HSUPA/HSDPA settings increased instability in roms (CM7, MIUI, Sense). I'd tried 12 for up and 7 for down and was getting lots of random FC's and reboots. Switching back to the rom factory settings resolved the problems.
[HTC Inspire 4G] xKrisx:
That's what I use. Saves on battery and works very well.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fowenati:
I live in a 4G Area, would someone tell me what the best settings are for a 4G area? As for the RIL thing, I'm on stock radio and After editing one time, I haven't been able to get H+ like I did before. (this is my friends phone, not mine, so I can't post screenies on demand and test extensively). Just need to know best settings for 4G area.
[HTC Inspire 4G] id10terrordfw:
Umm, even if you mean 12 for downlink that is not correct. 12 is 1.8mbps using QPSK, you want 10 (14.4) or 14 (21.1) for downlink (HSDPA). For uplink (HSUPA) 7 or 6 will typically net the same results as 6 is 5.76 up and 7 is 11.5, but no tower seems to be going beyond 1.3mpbs anyway.
[HTC Inspire 4G] prking07:
Can some one try this, is harmless and i seem to be getting faster an more stable speeds with this. With root explorer set root to rw, then go to proc/sys/net/ip4 and open the files tcp_rmem and tcp_wmem in a text editor and change the last set of numbers wich is six digits to 4000000. Yes, to 7 digits! Save, and without reboot do a speed test. Rebooting will return default values. Tell me your experience!

[HTC Inspire 4G] henrybravo:
Another way to edit the build.prop file is by editing it directly with a text editor. Root Explorer can be used to accomplish this.

1. Run Root Explorer, then select the /system partition

2. Click the "mount r/w" button in the upper right

3. Long press on the build.prop file and select "open in a text editor"

4. Make your desired changes, then press the menu button and select "save" or "save and exit". A backup of the previous version of the file will be made at the same time.

5. Reboot twice for the modified build.prop to take effect.

I'm pretty sure settings at the bottom will take precedence over anything up top. My best advice is make your own section on the very bottom with your own tweaks. Maybe even comment out duplicate entries up top if you think they are interfering.

What does ro.ril.hsxpa do?

Hello all, I've been playing around with the settings to get optimal download/upload speeds but the results has me unsure for the right mix. Prior to the root/build.prop editing, I was getting download speeds of 300 kbps to 900 kbps and upload speeds of 200 kbps to 600 kbps.

Currently I am using the following and I am getting download speeds of 1.9 to 2.1mbps and upload of 1.4 to 1.6 mbps:

ro.ril.hep=1

ro.ril.enable.dtm=1

ro.ril.gprsclass=12

ro.ril.enable.a53=1

ro.ril.enable.amr.wideband=1

ro.ril.enable.3g.prefix=1

ro.ril.hsdpa.category=28

ro.ril.hsupa.category=6

ro.ril.hsxpa=2

ro.use_data_netmgrd=true

persist.data_netmgrd_nint=16

persist.data_netmgrd_mtu=1428

When I change the hsxpa to 3, I get download speeds of 2.0 to 2.2 mbps but upload drops t0 150 kbps to 250 kbps. All other settings either impact the download or the upload speed - my question is what does the hsxpa value of 2 vs 3 do?

I am in St.Louis, MO area and I do see H+ icon all the time and I am running twopumpchuck's ROM (though in network settings I see umts)

Thanks in advance!
[HTC Inspire 4G] Nickovtyme:
my build.prop does not have all of those settings. Do I need to add those? I notice in prop editor there is an option for adding lines. Is it more based on the ROM I'm using? I'm using Ingersoll 2.4 and sticking with it.

Anybody help me understand this a bit better?
[HTC Inspire 4G] XAviierG:
You guys shouldn't mess with that file.
[HTC Inspire 4G] mallikg:

persist.data_netmgrd_mtu=1428

[HTC Inspire 4G] Nickovtyme:
Hey Thanks!

I have been following this thread since its inception and have made some changes here and there...but I recently just really started looking at the build.prop and noticed mine was different.
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
The HSXPA value indicates the target network of your device. =0 is UMTS/R99 (3G), =1 is HSDPA (3.5G with limited upload), =2 is HSDPA/HSDUP (3.5G with fast upload), =3 I'm not quite sure (it's probably HSPA+ but I don't know)

The H+ icon is just that, an icon. It's a marketing ploy from ATT to make their customers think they're always connected to HSPA+ (even those customers who don't live in an HSPA+ enabled area). The H+ icon will indicate a connection to UMTS (3G), HSDPA (3.5G), or HSPA+ ("4G"). The only way to know for sure is to check your network settings

Other ROMs (ported DHD ROMs and Gingerbread ROMs) do not have an H+ icon, they only have an H icon, but this doesn't mean they can't connect to the "faster" networks, it just means they have a different icon. I believe a ROM's chef can edit this icon if they choose to do so
[HTC Inspire 4G] Fiasco:
I'm on CM7 on my Inspire 4G.

I've tried different combinations of build.prop settings and no matter what I can't get downloads faster than 550 kbps or uploads faster than 106kbps.

Previously with the factory ROM I would get speeds of about 1600kbps/400kbps.

Not if you know what you're doing. I've never perm bricked a phone and I edit build props of dif phones every day, root phones every day, and test new scripts, apps, and many other things that can potentially brick every day. Really the only way to brick your phone in this thread is if you don't follow directions or are unable to read. If your phones speeds aren't as good as before, edit them back to previous settings. Personally I've done this tweak to 4 different Inspires and they all get ~4/1.3 Speeds now. Don't criticize something you havent tried.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fowenati:
It shouldn’t really be a problem, you could move it to be with the correct set of data, but also I noticed that ro.ril.enable.dtm = X occurs twice, delete one of them, and make sure it says 1, as many have reported that to be the better setting.
[HTC Inspire 4G] stickbo:
Is there anything I could put in the build.prop that would truly brick a phone? Just asking out of pure curiosity. I would find it hard to believe that it could truly render the phone bricked, but I am a true noob.

This is going to be a fun one, so if anyone has any suggestions, I'm open to ideas:

I'm currently using my Inspire on Straight Talk, and I have the APNs set correctly to use AT&T's mvno servers. The issue is that while everything is set up correctly in the APNs (net connects, MMS works), while other people are getting full AT&T speeds (upwards of 5mb dl, 3mb ul), I'm getting about 300-500k down, 100-300k up.

Right now, I'm flashing TPC's rom and then going to reflash CM 7 to see if that helps, but right now I'm out of ideas. Anyone have any suggestions?

Edit: TPC's with the edited APNs are showing 2.6mb down, 350k up.

TPC with edited build prop is 1200kb down, 250kb up. wtf
[HTC Inspire 4G] knuckleheadAj3:
I've seen this brought up twice and it's beginning to make me wonder...but what does flashing TPC's Rom and then flashing CM7 have anything to do with data speeds....??

Doesn't make much of any sense to me, but I might be missing something....
[HTC Inspire 4G] entropism:
I can't see it doing anything either, but it's worth a try. I'm getting a bit frustrated, watching hockey, drinking a good beer, and have nothing but time to experiment with this crap. Frankly, if I could get a stable 2-3mb down and 1mb up (about 66% of what AT&T is capable here) I'd be VERY happy, considering I'm paying $45/month for unlimited everything.
[HTC Inspire 4G] entropism:
OK, so... I flashed TPC's and was getting decent speeds. Went back to CM and instead of the 500kb/200kb that I was seeing before, I'm now getting 3500kb/300kb. Didn't see WHY flashing TPC's would work, but I guess it did. :confused:

Now to figure out my HSUPA problem...
[HTC Inspire 4G] knuckleheadAj3:
Did you do a full wipe in between each flash?

And what radio/build.prop settings are you currently using??
[HTC Inspire 4G] entropism:
I'm superstitious about wiping. Always do a full wipe, then a cache wipe, then dalvik, then I repeat.

Radio is 12.39.60.19U_26.06.04.06_M, same with both ROMs. For the build prop, I was using the standard that came with the respective ROMs. CM's is below:

ro.ril.enable.3g.prefix=1

ro.ril.hsdpa.category=10

ro.ril.hsupa.category=6

ro.ril.hsxpa=3

I just changed hsxpa to 2 and got much more consistent speeds, seemed to fix my HSUPA problem as well.

[HTC Inspire 4G] tribalartgod:
Maybe it's just me, but so far all of these various settings seem to be hit and miss. Roughly 280 posts or so, so far, and none of these settings have made a difference for me. I have used the ROM in my sig, as well as TPC.

Additionally, in both ROMS, I DO NOT have the line for HSUPA, in my build.prop file. Maybe this means something went wrong during my root process and I lost HSUPA? Not sure, nor do I know how to properly verify if this is the case.

At any rate, regardless of the changes I make, even to the APN settings, I get 1.3Mb upload, and anywhere from 1.2-2.2Mb download. This is in Raleigh NC, for reference. Attached are 3 tests, I just ran on Speedtest.

Any additional insight to this would be greatly appreciated. :-D

I'm using the rom & radio in my sig. I have not touched my build.prop.

The speeds I'm getting are between 2.1 & 3.7Mb down & pretty much right at 1.2Mb up. Checking the numbers that gtg465x uses it's set at:

ro.ril.enable.dtm = 1

ro.ril.gprsclass = 12

ro.ril.hsdpa.category = 10

ro.ril.hsupa.category = 6

ro.ril.hsxpa = 2

When I was using Revolution Beta 4 I tried doing a little adjusting and got mixed results. Sometimes I'd get 4+ other times 1Mb and under down. The upload speeds haven't varied much. Seems to me this is more network dependent on At&t's side than anything else. Unless the hsdpa is set to 7 to lower that is.
