Yup..
[myTouch 4G Accessories] 808HD2:
So here it is, its basiclly done.. Everything works and did it under or exactly $25. Used for a tpu case, which needs holes for the pins, or without a case...

Can I ask where you got your Dock? Which Droid phone was it for?

Thanks
[myTouch 4G Accessories] 808HD2:
Yea, its from a droid 2 dock.. Ebay is were I got it from lol..
[myTouch 4G Accessories] xl DIGITAL lx:
Can you post a link to that? Im trying to look for a moto droid dock but none of them has the 3 pins.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] 808HD2:
No droid dock has pins, its a dock I modded, I put the pins in myself.. Moto uses magnets for there docks..
[myTouch 4G Accessories] xl DIGITAL lx:
Oh that explains it, thanks. Was it hard to put the pins in there? I would try it but would then rather just wait for an official mytouch 4G dock. If its easy then I can probably do it.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] 808HD2:
Yea, pretty easy.. But you sti gotta cut the dock on the sides to make the phone fit with a tpu case.. There is a oem dock out with bluetooth, which I aslo modded to put in dock pins... Fyi the charge yoi get from the pins is usb, will never get a ac charge...

Heres the oem one if you havnt seen it...

Did a little work on my car mount still trying to figure how to put it car mode with the pins... Any ideas?!
[myTouch 4G Accessories] ziggy34:
Going to order things this week to try making a car mount. Can you tell me, the part you listed for the pins, was that for the long or short pins? Which ever it was, do you have the part number for the other? want to order a few of each. want to try making my mount so I can leave my case on.

Thanks
[myTouch 4G Accessories] 808HD2:
Sure....

Here is the part number 2280101

Its the long pins, works best for the tpu case I am useing...

Good luck....
[myTouch 4G Accessories] ziggy34:
Read a a forum that if +5v was put on the middle pin, then it would go to car dock mode.

I tried it, does not work, grounding the center pin puts in in to home dock mode, which I know you know already.

I am going to try to email HTC and see if I can get any info on the Pins.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] 808HD2:
Yea, thanks.. Someone said to put a 1vlt on the center pin but still nothing.. Damn..

Got shippments in too :) thank you allied :-p... But gonna try to finish the car mount, and do another desk dock :-p
[myTouch 4G Accessories] 808HD2:
update:

Car Mount about 60% done just need to do cosmetic work :-p make it look pretty lol and also getting car mode working, if anyone gets the info to do it let me know please...

thats sick! do you have a tutorial on how you did that?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] 808HD2:
Thanks.. I dont have a tutorial for the car dock, but I made one for the oem dock, modded to use the pins... :)
[myTouch 4G Accessories] laztpn0i:
Man...You guys have some great ideas on docks! I'm thinking of making one so that I will be able to charge my phone with the tpu case on. It looks like the droid 2 charger would be easiest to do, but I was wondering if any body was able to mod the oem charger so that it could accommodate being able to use a case as well.
[myTouch 4G Accessories] 808HD2:
Thanks..

The driod 2 dock is the best bet to mod it to work with a tpu case.. For the oem to b able to use it with a tpu, you would need to cut it down alot, if you look at my car dock, I used an oem dock and I cut it for my phone to sit in it..
[myTouch 4G Accessories] laztpn0i:
I finally got my Droid 2 dock. I'm gonna start cutting and filing it down so that I can use it while I have a tpu case on my phone. But, would you mind sharing on how you connected those 3 pins? Do you have a little tutorial that I can follow? And I see that you cut the sides of the removable insert. Did you do that so that the phone would be able to fit without the tpu case?
[myTouch 4G Accessories] Emo panda kitty:
Awesome

Bright idea bro. :D
[myTouch 4G Accessories] rinnycoop121:
is there anyway to moda Powermat Receiver to connect to the 3 pins?

any ideas.

Hello nfstanton,

I don't have any i-Mate ROMs, but would be willing to search if I know more about what you need. I bet the following information might help others want to help you...

Could you list the model name or number of your i-Mate?

Are you trying to downgrade to 2003 or 2002? With or without phone? What language ROM?

Any chance you know the ROM version number that you want?

Wishing you success. :)

LOL - I see that is a hard to find ROM... HTC Worldwide doesn't even list the Himalaya on their Support page anymore. :eek: Other resources I checked don't have it in repository either.

One quick fix may be to Download the install package for Transcriber direct from M$. It is listed for WM 2002, but may work under WM 5.

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...c3-2eee-41e3-9339-f7b303f4b386&DisplayLang=en

They have it in English, French and German...

Lots of ROMs in multiple languages to choose from...

Some of the links might still be good... Maybe an Upgrade instead of a Downgrade??? Especially since WM 2003 is next to be phased out of support by M$.

P.S.: I'll still poke around looking for the WM 2003 a bit... Post back if either option above solves your problem so I don't keep searching needlessly. :)

[HTC Inspire 4G] IsraelR:
I've been reading about editing hsdpa and hsupa catagory numbers as well as the gprsclass number and seem to have improved my upload speed and possibly my download speed. In my basement, I usually see about 2200 kbps down and 1000 kbps up. Changing a couple numbers, I am now at a consistent 2500kbps and 1600kbps.

I'm running Android Revolution v3.0 with the 26.06.03.24_M2 radio.

ro.ril.gprsclass=12

ro.ril.hsdpa.category=14

ro.ril.hsupa.category=7

ro.ril.hsxpa=3

I rebooted twice.

Could be purely coincidental, but I thought it may be worth sharing and discussing.
[HTC Inspire 4G] 9646gt:
Would be great if you could elaborate a little more on the technical side of what these values actually do and stuff :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] IsraelR:
All this is cut and pasted from other sites, it's not my own research.

ro.ril.gprsclass indicates the GPRS class of the target network :

Class 2 : 3 slots : 8 – 12 kbps upload / 16 – 24 kbps download

Class 4 : 4 slots : 8 – 12 kbps upload / 24 – 36 kbps download

Class 6 : 4 slots : 24 – 36 kbps upload / 24 – 36 kbps download

Class 8 : 5 slots : 8 – 12 kbps upload / 32 – 40 kbps download

Class 10 : 5 slots : 16 – 24 kbps upload / 32 – 48 kbps download

Class 12 : 5 slots : 32 – 48 kbps upload / 32 – 48 kbps download

ro.ril.hsdpa and ro.ril.hsupa catagories are similar where each catagory is a target for a maximum data rate. It may seem that higher is better, but another thread on the G2 forum seemed to show that if you went too high, something triggered to lower the speeds back down to below factory levels.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Sportsguy15:
Any steps for those who have never edited this before?
[HTC Inspire 4G] id10terrordfw:
I used prop editor ( I can't remember where I found it, but it is an apk. I used it to make the changes after backing up my build.prop. I will upload here in a few minutes.

Be warned, you can wreck your software pretty good messing with this file. Just some forewarning.
[HTC Inspire 4G] IsraelR:
Well, I'm glad it wasn't just my imagination. Those settings I posted aren't necessarily the optimum setup for our phones, so a little experimentation may yield even better results.

There are several ways to do it, prop editor being a great one. Here's what I did step by step for the new guys:

MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR ROM THROUGH CWM.

Download "root explorer" and possibly "mount /system (rw /ro)" from the app market.

Open up root explorer and select the system folder

Near the top of the screen there should be a "Mount R/W" button. Select it. If it won't let you change to R/W, go back and open up the "mount system" app. Select Mount r/w. Go back to root explorer and you should be able to now select Mount R/W in the system folder.

Long press build.prop and scroll down to "Open in Text Editor".

Make your desired changes, tap menu and then Save & Exit. It will automatically save your original build.prop as build.prop.bak and save your changes.

Reboot twice (once didn't work for everyone in the threads I was reading).

As id10terrordfw said, you could potentially mess things up with your rom, so be careful. If you aren't confident in what you're doing, it's probably best to just leave it alone.
[HTC Inspire 4G] Twenty4:
I just made the changes but I wont be able to do any speed tests until tomorrow. I am on the Microcell at home.
[HTC Inspire 4G] d.cortez:
wanted to share results from my tests today. i'm using CM7 for Inspire and my daily driver - att-inspired-rooted-signed.zip from attn1 - and on both ROMs my build.prop settings are:

ro.ril.enable.dtm = 1

ro.ril.gprsclass = 12

ro.ril.hsdpa.category = 10

ro.ril.hsupa.category = 6

ro.ril.hsxpa = 3.

the APN settings for both ROMs are in first pic. pics 2-4 are from the att stock ROM and pics 5 & 6 are from CM7. i don't know if att is tweaking something, but i've been getting some crazy fast speeds. (doesn't hurt that i live in dallas).
[HTC Inspire 4G] 9646gt:
Trying this as soon as I get my new rom flashed :)
[HTC Inspire 4G] 9646gt:
I copied the propeditor.apk to the sd card and clicked it in root explorer then clicked install. Says it can't install because of problem pasring the file?
[HTC Inspire 4G] 9646gt:
Got the prop editor installed using appinstaller. Sadly it looks like mine is already edited in coredroid.

gprs=12

hsdpa=10

hsupa=6

hsxpa=3

Don't think there are any settings above these current ones to improve speed.
[HTC Inspire 4G] 9646gt:
So I changed

hsdpa=14

and got way better downloads. Changed my hsupa to 7 and it was like hsupa had been disabled again. Changed back to 6 and reoobted again and still acts like it struggles to limit itself to around 300 upload. Is this something in my build.pro or in my new flash of coredroid 3.2? I never had this problem with this rom before. my ro.ril.enable.dtm setting says 0. Not sure what that is but I'll change to 1 and see what happens.

FIXED: changed ro.ril.enable.dtm = from 0 to 1 and it seems to have fixed it.

EDIT also for some reason network was set to wcdma only.

Is there a way to unlock the stock APN settings in the rooted stock rom? Or should I just create a new one?
[HTC Inspire 4G] Av8tor86:
cant edit

everytime I try to edit build.prop and try to save it, it tells me its a read only and cant save. I tried prop editor and it can't even open it.
[HTC Inspire 4G] homeslice976:
You need to make sure the file system is mounted as Read/Write. If it's mounted Read Only you won't be able to make changes. I use Root Explorer, and when you go into System you tap the "Mount R/W" button, then open build.prop in text editor. If you use ES File Explorer, go into the settings, go to Root Options, then put a check for Root Explorer, and Mount File System. Now a long press on build.prop will allow you to open it as text, make changes, and save changes. What I like about Root Explorer is it automatically makes a backup of build.prop when making changes.
[HTC Inspire 4G] legend221:
Excuse my ignorance but would I have to change this section as well?

Or just the top section as the following is around the middle section of the build?

"# 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"

[HTC Inspire 4G] efrarc:
It is for MTU protocol, A larger MTU brings greater efficiency because each packet carries more user data while protocol overheads, such as headers or underlying per-packet delays, remain fixed; the resulting higher efficiency means a slight improvement in bulk protocol throughput.

A larger MTU also means processing of fewer packets for the same amount of data. In some systems, per-packet-processing can be a critical performance limitation. Large packets can occupy a slow link for some time, causing greater delays to following packets and increasing lag and minimum latency. For example, a 1500-byte packet, the largest allowed by Ethernet at the network layer (and hence over most of the Internet), ties up a 14.4k modem for about one second.
[HTC Inspire 4G] DeathmonkeyGTX:
That method of flashing TPC's ROM over itself even though I was already running it, wiping everything, and then installing CM7 nightly 35 didn't fix the cellular data speeds. I tried several radios with no joy. I'd really like to rock CM but this isn't good :(
[HTC Inspire 4G] ZXMustang:
Nobody seems to have this figured out yet. I have changed my settings to all kinds of values and none of them will net me better than 1.5mbps up and down. Thats pretty good I guess, but its really not 4g-ish. I bet when ATT drops the update to make 4G enabled, it will be something completely different than what we are banging our heads on the wall about here.
[HTC Inspire 4G] donniesd:
That is your area. Have you checked the "4G" Map? i am netting 4 down and 3 up.
[HTC Inspire 4G] substance12:
I've been seeing some info on the thunderbolt's lte speeds and people are saying the speed test apps don't accurately measure 4g. This corresponds with my experience on the inspire. Using the speak easy.net site I get consistently higher values. I got 5+ yesterday and 7+ too. I wasn't able to replicate it though. I'm getting consistent 4's though. Network still showed up as hsdpa. Since hsdpa is a subset of hspa I'm not sure when hspa+ is live that we are going to see a different value.
[HTC Inspire 4G] donniesd:
If your upload is Higher then 300Kb, then you are in a hspa+ area.
[HTC Inspire 4G] substance12:
Also, I was using the stock rcmix 3.4 settings in my build prop. I'm not convinced setting hsdpa to anything higher than 10 is helping me. Ymmv.
[HTC Inspire 4G] kirk123:
I don't think this is true. I am not in a HSPA+ "4G" area and I get 3.86mbps down and 1.2mbps up. If you have more than 300kbps, you have HSUPA enabled. Just like the iphone 4 is able to reach higher data speeds than 300kbps and it doesn't support HSPA+, only HSPA.
[HTC Inspire 4G] motoman234:
Yeah I agree to an extent, I used his build prop setup and got 5mb down and close to 2mb up but only on one certain build. I think it sometimes depends on other stuff other than the build prop settings too.

I know the feeling, I even get random signal ups and downs within a 1 mile radius in San Mateo. I know there are a lot of different reasons signal can degrade, but a little consistancy would be nice, the SF Bay arera is a huge market for AT&T, but then again AT&T really doesn't care about it's customers.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
HAHA, yeah, they know we're home to Apple, so they're guaranteed a large user base, regardless of how crappy the service is. They say SF is the #3 market for AT&T, yet we've got one of the highest dropped call rates. AT&T has "chicken vs egg" syndrome, they love to try to say the cause is the users, but in reality the cause is their poor network planning. In Shanghai and Beijing there are 150 users for every 1 in the US, yet they don't have the issues :-)

I live in Dallas, pretty close to Carrollton. These 2 were done from my apt. close to the corner of Frankford and Midway. The left pic is my lowest and the right is my highest at home. The speeds are always around that within a 10 mile radius as far as I can tell so far.

Average Low End Speed--------------------------------------Average High End Speed​

P.S. As far as the server distance issue goes, it does that to me with every rom. I've tried every rom I can find lol. These were done with CoreDroid's Froyo Rom, cant remember the version then but I didn't make any build.prop changes.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
FYI - It has nothing to do with what ROM you use. Network providers have provider edge routers that "connect" their network into the internet. In a cellular network, they usually are larger WAN deployments, with only a couple PE routers into the net backhaul. This means that when the speed test scans your IP, you may be sitting in New York City, but your phone's IP might be associated with a router in Nebraska, hence why you get that as the speed test. This is less common in Cable\DSL type networking because those providers have more infrastructure than cellular carriers.
[HTC Inspire 4G] fowenati:
Although it doesn't have to do much with the rom, it has alot to do with your kernel, radio, running processes, and build prop which can all be affected by a custom ROM. As for servers, you will get fastest speeds on one of these 3.

1. Default seldcted server from app

2. Nearest server to you/lowest ping

3 if you are in the west try Palo Alto, you'll be surprised...

[HTC Inspire 4G] mattmiller:
What's your settings
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
It's interesting to see 1.3mbps is about the most anyone gets upload, even where they get a huge download. My guess is they have 1 T1 dedicated to upload and then NxT1 for the download, and that's where they're working on replacing with Metro Ethernet where available, or DS3 where not, but surprising they seem to be keeping the upload at a T1

Good to see lots more people getting faster upload speeds now tho. Really, anything over 3-4 mbps for a mobile device is spectacular as many people are seeming to get that now. I'm still stuck at 1-2 mbps here in SF :-( ... but we're AT&T's problem child, so don't see that improving anytime soon.
[HTC Inspire 4G] californiarailroader:
It's the same up north of you here in Mendocino County. On downloads, I max out around 3 Mbps as we still don't have HSPA+ up here, and according to AT&T's maps it ends in Windsor, 60 miles south of me in Sonoma County. I have no idea when it'll get up here, I know we aren't expected to see LTE with Verizon until later next year or early 2013.
[HTC Inspire 4G] EvoXOhio:
I have tried these settings and a few others and I can't get above 1900 down and 150 up. I have tried 3 different radios as well. I never did a speedtest right after rooting so I dont know if I was ever getting higher. These slow speeds are killing me for a rooted 4g phone.
