I've been having really slow data for the past 2 weeks and I'm not throttled my status bar shows a full signal but apps that use data take a while to load any suggestions

What exactly are your speeds?

Reboot device, download speedtest from the market, post the results.

either you are in bad reception area, or you are in a really congested area if you are not being throttled

It's Hard to explain my data works but it doesn't start loading instantly it takes roughly 30 secs to a minute,for the,page to begin to load after it starts loading it does so at 4g speeds

Force phone to roam

I need help to force my phone to roam on verzion network

Roam control in the market will do what you want.
Roam control works great. You will only get a 1x signal though so its only good for calls and texts.

No problems for me. Slow data but I am on wifi most of the time.

It worked great for me when I had a weak or no signal in the mountains. Works fine here in Raleigh, NC as well.

Speed test

I ran the xtream labs speed test and my upload speed is faster than my download. Up was 1.2 and down was .5 is this normal? This is 3g

Not normal per se, but that's normal for sprint's ****Ty 3g network.
I used to get 2up and 1 down now not even that. Things have gotten worse since September.

Keeping signal alive

When I am downloading roms and other things using aDownloader, some times the download speeds dip tremendously, from 200 kbps to 1 kbps. I know this is to preserve battery and whatnot, but that is not an issue for me. Is there an app or something to keep the signal 'alive'? Looking around yielded no helpful results. Thank you.

Are you sure it's not just slow servers? Is it every download from any server?

Cm10.1 data switching issue

When I turn on my data it switches between 3g and 4g and I can't even figure it out
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
That is how it is supposed to work, nothing to figure out.
My gfs phones never switches or anything my phones does all the time
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
What is she on and it never switches to what? If she hasn't updated her modem it will stay on 3g all the time. It is like this on every AOSP rom for our phone. Unless there is a theme that edits it out.
If speedtest says it's fine, it's fine.
It just switches from 4g to 3g all the time but I guess I'll have to live with it

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Its how its suppose to work. H shows when cell data is accessed and when idle it shows 3g... Not sure why it bugs some people.

Signal doubled with new nb4 kitkat update

Just flashed the full stock with bootloader and modem and my signal doubled.. 2 bars in home to 4-5..

But if you look at the actual signal, it stayed the same. I still have -108dB, but "full" bars.
I'm not sure about that because I ran speed tests before and after and it spiked from 18mb down in the middle of the house to 27mb same spot.. And near the window 30+

I have to agree, before the update, I was barely getting hspa+ in my area. Now after the update it's full LTE in the same area.
Thought it was placebo at home the last couple of days but now at work I'm getting a solid 4g signal inside where I used to get no signal at all.
