I kept arguing with myself, if I should post this here or in the development forum, or what, so if a moderator feels the urge to move it, please do so.
Should end user speedtest via wifi tether (iPad) be somewhat similar to the results of 3g speedtest on the phone? I am trying to decide if I am getting in the neighborhood as what I should. I can be parked in the middle of a full bar signal area (I know, I know...the bars aren't fool proof, but all 4 at least means more than none or 1) and I only get about .9mbps on the phone and then about .7mbps on the iPad.
I'm using my Dinc (of course) and I'm running CM7 Final and the latest Incredikernal 2.6.37.6. I'm also using the wifi tether that's stock with CM7.
Thanks,
Roger

Im getting 2233 down n 846 up from my phone on warm z. I use lous #8, 4.08 radio, its pretty quick.

What radio are you using? Ive tried different radios and 4.08 and 11.19 work best for me for signal and data speed.
4.08 works great for me
I am using the stock HTC radio. As much of a cutting edge geek as I am, I'm really nervous about messing with the radio. Is it honestly as iffy as they make it sound, or is it no different than anything else, just gotta pay attention to what you're doing?

Check md5 sum, flash with full(ish) battery, and don't pull the battery while its flashing. Oh and make sure your SD is formatted fat32. Check those things and you'll be fine.

i like have no signal while Im at work,in hosptial. With Myn i had signal power lots of place. Ever since I went ginger happy i get like no data connection at all. so like no texting while im at work. I wanna flash the latest radio but is wondering if a good move or bad. Holla back and letme know...
also where can i find the latest radio zip.

Yes, of course you should update your radio. Especially because it can help with speed issues. Update with the zips on this thread
You flash any of them through your recovery, but I wouldn't update your HBoot which is why it's not in the combo.
It wont let me download radio 215. Why is that. From Cal's site

Hey, i'm using Warm-Z Nightly 4-13, on radio 11.19.
I see my signal tend to disappear then reappear every so often. During that time, i'm not able to do anything that involves the radio like data or sms or phone calls.
Is it because of the actual radio? Should I downgrade to 07.28 again?
That Sounds to me as if its radio related. Did you flash the radio when you put on the new nightly? Or have you been using that radio for a while?

I've been using this radio for about a month or two now.
Damn auto correct......Hmmm.....well in that case this is kind of odd. Maybe the 4/13 nightly build had a glitch with that radio. I'd try either restoring your old nightly or just flashing a different nightly. If you still seem to have problems then I would try a new radio. But if this radio just recently started glitching with your new nightly I would definitely say just change to a different nightly and see if it helps

It's been with all my ROMs lol. I just happened to be using Warm-Z right now. I'm on 4-14 right now and it's still doing it. I'm about to flash back to 07.28.. i just don't know if that's safe.
I'm actually on 07.28. As well as warm z twopointtwo 4/7 nightly with the same kernel. You'll be fine.....flash the new radio just make sure you know what you're doing before you start

It's a different version of it. The current one that's in the nightly is a beta and well Ziggy took off all links if the kernel so incubus was lucky to have it before it got deleted. Upgrade to 4-14 its really fast.

Nope. I don't pay attention to that stuff. I usually try to stay away from too many kernel mods.
But the new kernel its running doesn't bump charge at all, so you should like it.

Sorry for the late reply, I have school and work.
But yeah, I updated to the leaked EVO 04.08 and the signal increased by -5 and i don't see the random disappearing anymore. When you flash the nightly, only wipe CACHE and DALVIK-CACHE. Do NOT wipe DATA unless you plan to start over.
Cool lemme know if you got more probs and ill do the same!

You open the script and use the unturbocharge option, or worst case reflash your rom after a full wipe I haven't had any issues with it and I've run all the options, I personally use option 2 or 5
Edit: not sure if the options are the same in the update, I use "faster" or "experimental nulled"

Thanx , I've been working on it but for some reason it doesn't work, it say that it cannot create some folders and the bulletproof launcher won't work. I ran the test and It's not working. I'm gonna read a little more to see what I'm missing.

Make sure u have busybox 1.18.2 or lower installed you can use busybox installer from the market to check your version and change it if you need too

The EPST tweak will only work in a Sense rom. If you were to try it and then flash to AOSP, it won't stick. The reason it dialed out instead of doing settings is because you're running AOSP. You would have to use the 3g TurboCharger tweak. Use the link in my sig.

I rooted my tmobile S3 today and it worked fine. Later I installed a cyanogen nightly sang noticed it was only getting 3g, so I did a restore to the stock rooted firmware through ROM manger. With that I got just bars, no indication of 4g or 3g. The phone wouldnt go to the internet, it said no connection available. I had to restore back to cyangen to get the phone just to work... but regardless of which settings I chose the phone is stuck in 3g. What is the fix? I'm going crazy here

3G on cm is the same as 4G on tmo stock rom.
Try checking your apn settings on the stock rom since I think your imei is fine, without it you wouldn't have gotten 3G at all, even on cm.

Wait, are you just looking at the icon without it doing anything. Many aftermarket ROMs will show 3G when the phone is doing nothing. It will show 4G or H when you make it work.

This is usually the outcome. Too many postings (fresh ones too) of people who just got s-off and went to aosp. When they came back to sense, radios sucked. Until those posts stop appearing I stand by my comment.
If s-off, the decrypted ruu should fix. Until, you repeat the same steps...and define insanity.

You probably did what I did. I jumped right to Vanir, which might have messed with my radios. No matter what I flashed to, the problem remained. I posted a thread and Flyhalf was nice enough to point me in the right direction.

I am seeing radio issues as well. Areas where I was at high signal now get me medium to low. Our fav restaurant dropped me to 3g for the first time ever last night, showing a low signal when on stock it was at high.
I am running PAC-Man rom. Signal is being measured by GSAM Battery Monitor Pro.
Voice and Data are working fine, just low signal. IMEI is not blank. Not sure what step to take next to diagnose the issue.
This is what I'm getting running PAC when I have full bars.
