Help!! Very slow data speeds!!

OK ive done this before but im having major issues with the data speeds on my tilt 2. I did the tethering like i always do and installed the speed hack. enabled the hspda but my speeds on my new tilt 2 are very slow compared to my old one that i broke, i am lucky to get 500 down and 700 or 800 up and i used to get 1.5 or more down and 500 up so i dont know whats different from this newer one then my old one. Anyone having the same problem?
do you have the proxy enabled or disabled?
Several factors can be effecting your speed like location and time of day.
Proxy unknown
I have no idea if the proxy is enabled or disabled, as for the location and time of day, i use my phone at work for internet and ive never had a problem with speeds untill i got the warrenty replacement from att, a brand new tilt 2 the old one always gave a great connection and great speed at least 1.5 down.
WOOO HOO Fast again!!
OK i found out how to disable the proxy and disabled it and now my speeds are back up to about 1.5 down and 900 up. Thanks for the info. I am glad im a member of this site its really helped me out alot.
Ok now I am having this issue! Mine only happens on custom roms. I flash back to the original AT&T rom and speeds go back up. I have attempted almost all the radios and still no luck. I have disabled and re-enabled the proxy to no avail. I have also used the jh20001 speed cab to try and fix it. This occurs on all the custom roms I have tried from Energy (multiple builds) Cell(multiple builds) etc.. Speeds on AT&T's rom ar anywhere from 1100kbps-2100kbps. I try a different rom and speeds are always anywhere from 190kbps-580kbps no greater. HSDPA/HSUPA is enabled and also have tried it w/ j/HSDPA enabled and off. Any help would be greatly appreciated
can anyone help w/ this? i flip between the tilt2 and hd2 so i can get 3g here in virginia. i would like to get my fast data speeds back so i can watch my slingbox and listen to internet radio.
Anyone out there w/ any knowledge on this?

Do you guys, get dropepd 3g while tethering?

I am on Cyanogen's rom with the newest radio. I also have my prl onto the 41003 alltell PRL(I have tried many), but while tethering through wireless tether pre9, my 3g constantly drops. The icon dissapears then comes back, and through ping I can see packets stopping.
Anyone else have this prob? I am going to see if this happens on a Sprint PRL... but it's pretty anoyying. I am pretty sure I used to be able to do this, maybe on an older radio, I've downloaded large Ubuntu 300 meg updates fine... can't do that now.
I just put the oldest pri and nv, and no more drops, still newest radio.

150ms ping time compared to the old 300 and I am on Alltell's/Verizon's towers 41003 prl.
1.5 mb/s on speedtest.net
You could just use the built-in Wi-Fi Hotspot ... works perfectly.

Nah same prob..., and just to clarify, when I flashed the PRI and the nvram, it changed my prl to a sprint one... that's why the good speeds and low pings. Except in certain parts of this building no signal. So I flashed the oldest radio 1.34...? and the 41003 prl and it works great.

prl and profile update??

Im running a sense based rom.. konis elite II
And with stock rom I remembered if having a slow 3g connection
A quick prl and profile update would fix it
I should be ok doing that even if its not stock ruu right??
If this is a repost I apologize
If you could pm me the link and I will remove this
yes, updating profile and prl are fine to do if you are rooted.
However that isnt going to fix your speeds.

Noted ...
I've done the msl http proxy to 0 and 0.0.0.0
Just odd that im experiencing a significant decrease in 3g speeds with full bars
Don't know if it could just be due to over use on servers since sprint has opened up free calls after the tragedies in japan

[HELP] newbie...

got epic 4g touch for sprint but flashed to boost, EL29
will this work on my phone? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1346680
also i went to system and didnt see the ETC folder? should i make one?
my phone is rooted with NO custom rom's
just sometimes my 3g goes away and i get no connection, i am hoping maybe this can boost it up a little
Regarding your 3g going away, maybe a Boost coverage area. I have mine flashed over to metro- so 3g varies on certain areas. Google Boost coverage area. It can also be that it wasn't flashed correctly- so you may look into getting reflashed correctly- it may be that you just need to update your prl too.
Boost related threads I looked up for someone else earlier.

[Q] Custom Rom and 4G troubleshooting

Hello xda. I need some help with my GS3 and LTE. I rooted my phone on day one and have moved from rom to rom. I live in the SF Ba. Area and they are turning LTE on. Using sensorly I found some LTE areas, but my phone won't connect. I have tried different roms: CM10, Paranoidandroid, Ktoonsez, and now Liquid. I started with radio LJ9 and am now on LJ7.
I hope someone can give me a few ideas on what to try next. I heard updating the PRL can help, but I don't know how to do that.
Sorry if I did a poor job of searching, I am on my tablet, on 3G, and I couldn't find much
To update your profile and prl (prl is for roaming and doesn't effect lte).
menu -> settings (scroll to the bottom) -> system updates -> update profile / update prl
I'd odin stock JB or ICS and test LTE that way.
Though all of the ROMs you listed should have perfectly working LTE.
good luck
I flashed back to a Odex stock, and updated my profile and prl (just incase). I still don't seem to get any LTE.

On CM10 (and all AOKP ROMs based on it) eHRPD authentication is not working right yet. I think they're close to a fix, but for right now, if you're in an area with a weak LTE signal; you're gonna have some problems
