Im using black 2.5 rom and after upgrading to it my internet connection doesnt seem to work as it did before.
While i was using wm5 and any radio rom i reached around 12 kb/s speed in EDGE zone.
Now i can at best reach round 6.4 kb/s.
Also connection is jamming once in a while... by that i mean it just stops working. Takes 3-4 trys to load some web pages.
Also downloads are stopping completely after few Mb's but connection is still alive on background and after pushing dl link it starts again.
Any advices?

When I have 6.1 installed (CRCs/Pays) I get about 1,500KB/s using the dslreports.com mobile speed test. This seems about right. With 6.5 installed the speeds seem much lower. Right now I am running DV 5.0 Final and I get around 700-800KB/s. My router is set to G-Only and everything is good on that end. Is there something I can do to improve the WiFi speeds or is this normal?
Bump. Just trying to figure out what's going on here. With 6.1 ROMs I am getting great speeds but I just flashed to DV5.0 and cannot get anything abot 700-800kb/s.
mmm?
Its due to the PP cause IE needs almost 13MB PP and our roms cause hermes is damn tiny we use 4MB or 6MB
try to use another Explorer to enjoy more speed at dl and or streaming
I have been having some major problems with my EVO regarding the data. If I use anything that is on the heavy side of bandwidth, like downloading a file from android marketplace, surfing the web, watching sprint tv, using the GPS, etc...the data will just time out for about 3 min at a time. For instance if I am downloading a 5mb app from android marketplace, it will maybe download a megabyte, then it will just stop downloading. If you look at the 3G symbol at the top, it will be white, but only the upstream indicator will be on. I can then open any other internet application on the phone, and nothing will work. It usually lasts for about 3 minutes at a time and happens fairly regularly. It will end up taking me 15-20 min to download a 5mb file from the marketplace. Same thing if I browse a bandwidth heavy site like digg.com. It will just time out after a while and it will just show the upstream indicator as solid and not do anything in any program.
This problem is not location dependent. I have this issue at my apartment, at work, at my friend's house, at the Sprint store...anywhere.
In chronological order, this is what I have done to troubleshoot/fix the problem:
First noticed problem
Turned off phone/Turned back on
Rooted and installed custom version of 2.1 w/ Sense
Removed battery (power cycle)
Talk to Sprint cust care. They sent signal over that reactivated the phone (2x)
Did factory reset on phone and formatted SD card
Swapped phone at Sprint store with new one
So even after swapping my EVO with a new EVO from the Sprint store and not fooling with the phone at all, I am still having the same exact issue.
I am absolutely at wit's end with this and I have no idea what to do at this point.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Does this happen over wifi too, or only 3g?
------------------------------------------
This post brought to you by my EVO 4G, by XDA-Tapatalk, and by Swype.
Thats a good question. I dont have a wifi connection to try it on at home because I keep my wifi on 5ghz N. I will take it to a friend's house and try.
yeah good luck testing it with WIFI. I'd say my WIFI is about 10 times less reliable than 3G.
I have not been able to test with Wifi yet, but I just had one of my coworkers that has the same phone to replicate the issue on his phone. He is having the same exact problem.
We set our phones next to each other and downloaded Space Buster 3D Lite off the Android Marketplace. Mine crapped out about 2mb in and so did his. He wasnt able to surf or do anything else on his phone for a few minutes just like mine.
I'm wondering if this a network problem in our area or if there is a problem with the phone.
Also, I downloaded a continuous ping program and did 3,000 pings with no packet loss, so it seems to only happen with heavy data usage ie. saturating your bandwidth.
Either way, it makes me feel a lot better to see this problem happening with other people lol
dude... i was just about to post a thread on this. im tearing my hair out with this horrible horrible problem. tmobile was better and more consistent its ridiculous...
i'm having the exact same problems, and not only just this, but i'm sending and receiving texts hours and hours off... its just not instant. wheerever i am. and sometimes i'm sending a text and this data "blackout" happens. also when i'm receiving texts i can't send texts out at the same time.. the phone gives me sms errors and then the data timeouts for minutes.. i have to wait minutes to resend the texts or use data..
Well it turns out that my friend that got this phone too is having the same exact problem......
WTF is going on here? Can people test this on their phones? Just try downloading a large file (5mb+) off android marketplace 2-3 times and watch the download. See if it stops or says download paused. Then try surfing the web when this happens.
Including myself, thats 3/3 people that are having this problem that I know personally.

I have no issues downloading large files, maybe it is location based?
It appears the OTA update that was released today fixed the problem. I've been running Sprint TV for about 4 hours with no issues. Thank god...I was about to cancel my service over this.
Here in Seattle I get good 4G reception (maximum bars) with download speeds typically >6000 kbps (ping 381 ms), yet when I browse the web, the speed at which web pages open begins to dramatically slow about half-way through and then eventually stops before download is complete. I do not have this problem with 3G or with other apps. I am using Fresh 3.2.

i was getting that too. i have no idea why. it was so annoying. pages would load to 85% - 90% then stop, but web apps like youtube and pandora did fine. i hope someone could shed some light on it in case it happens again. i was using baked snack with kernel #4 before, but have not had the issue occur with baked snack 1.7 kernel #6.
My biggest problem is streaming on sites like Justin.tv, with 3G I can stream just fine without too much of an issue. However 4G it constantly skips and buffers every 5-10 seconds.
Hi all. I am on leedroid 3.3.3 and as long as i can remember using leedroid i have a problem using the edge data connection. When using edge almost every time when loading aa page the browser stops loading after some seconds. Even the icon in the notification bar show that it do has stopped. I have to reload and reload and reload and with a bit of luck it loads the page and i can see content. Sometimes even THAN it stops loading
Same thing when reaching my dataplan limit. I have umts connection but am limited to edge speeds. Than the same happens
I thought perhaps it is my provider, but i can't find anything about it anywhere AND with my G1 ,like 8 month ago , i NEVER had problems like this! I even locked my data to edge to safe battery and it worked like a charm!
Any help? Plz!!
I am on :
T-Mobile Germany with a contract
Desire HD with leedroid 3.3.3 and bfs.kernel and Max 1,3 ghz
Adw.ex and no further mods.

Wrong forum section dude.
I guess contact your provider and check the apn settings for a start.
Hi guys, got an issue with my phone recently, 3G/H has been extremely slow using web browsing apps lately.
It's fine on other apps and if I run an app like speedtest or even facebook in the background the web app will run fine as long as speedtest is doing its thing.
I have no issue when on wifi.
Reseting the phone and clearing app data makes no difference.
My phone has the latest software.
Was fine till about 3 weeks ago.
Phone is 3 months old, this is the first issue.
Have tested with stock browser, dolphin and chrome.
I think this is a really strange issue.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam.
may be the problem of the telecom operators
I had the same probs up to a couple of days ago but since i updated to the latest radio (2.1204.127.19) my internet connection probs have gone...
not sure if that's your solution though as you say you have the latest software ... ?
Hello don't you have a data limitation ?
I have 1 Go data limitation. After that my browser seems to be slow but it's because i'm limited in data bandwith.
I don't have anymore my full speed until next month ...
Make sure you don't have this limitation too.
Other apps that don't need "speed" datas will not show any problem
because they only download a little amount of datas at once ( weather for example ).
Does speedtest shows a low speed ?
Prbably not my povider as it's only the web browser apps.
I'm on 1.29.862.11
It won't be data limit, i don't get near it and it doesn't slow down anyway, they just charge me more.
Speedtest shows same as always between 3 and 6 Mbps
