Running Ugkl1radio.
Wondering if these speeds are normal on wind in Toronto area.
That upload looks horrible
Any better radio?

I ran a test last night after updating to radio UGLA4 and was getting close to 10 mbit down, 1 mbit up.
Before the update I was maxing out at about 5 mbit. I'm on Rogers, but the radio is still definitely worth a try.

No change. Thanks though
I think wind is capping me which is complete bs

Where are you located? I get 5+ down and 350-900k up depending where I am, in kitchener I've hit 7 down 1 up with wind.

That is completely abnormal. Ice tested 4 different wind Sims and all of them have been well under 2mbps with 3 of them barely breaching 1mbps and average of around 200kbps up. Tested in Mississauga and Toronto.
I'm with Mobilicity and while coverage is less than with wind I typically get about 2.3-2.5 mbps/300-600kbps up

So there's nothing that I can do?

Try a different tower, try a different server, etc...
You're testing the tower you're connected to, the server chosen, and your phone. In that order.

and for a quick fix you can also call wind and ask them to send your phone a refresh code. Tell them you're not getting any data to avoid answering questions about why its needed and theyll likely do it on the spot. (doesnt necessarily mean this will work)
Also what signal dbm/asu are you getting when youre dl'ing at 600kbps

Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk

That's a little low is that four bars? I've still pulled off 1mb plus speeds at that signal strength but I'm typically around -81/16.
You should do what another poster mentioned and test different towers, inside vs out etc. Its also possible that wind is throttling smart phones in an attempt to stimmy data usage but that's just complete speculation.
Outside of trying new radios, or complaining to wind there's not much you can do when it comes to data speeds...there may be some kind of optimization code I don't know about but again, speculation.
I'll say again though that every wind sim I've tested in the gta has had atrocious speeds

Have you tried both a GSM and CDMA model? I dont think that many people will have, definitely not in England or Europe as we only have GSM available (I think)
Therefore Im afraid I cant post a vote as I have never tried CDMA

I use a CDMA and I'm voting GSM the battery life is proven to blow cdma away
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

I've used both and the signal strength and battery life on the GSM version blow away the CDMA version. The Verizon version has some serious signal issues.

Yes, lets touch on that argument again, which means exactly nothing to the end user and only slight inconvenience to developers.
For a company that doesn't 'support' it for a developer device, it is interesting that they still offer up all the CDMA and LTE code in AOSP, even in 4.0.4. That and the Sprint version was added with 4.0.4.

...and the result is an abundance of FUD which has been debunked by el Goog themselves. The one and only implication is that no CDMA device can be technically "supported" as AOSP, as the basebands are closed source. The real world implication to devs and end users... nada.

I don't have signal issues on 4.0.4 lol. Couldn't be better.

CDMA because battery life/signal has been fine for me and 16GBs is not enough.

GSM FTW. I've got a white one. I haven't seen anyone here that has it!

When you say phoenix, do you mean the Valley or the city itself? I'm in Scottsdale and haven't seen LTE yet.

I get the LTE when I'm on the Scottsdale server. 101 n University. Fountain Hills is awhile away from where I'm at though. Sad thing is I work up the street on Broadway n 101, no LTE there.

I was in Queen Creek earlier and didn't see anything out there, currently in Gilbert and don't see anything but 4G on here either.
Running deodexed stock and I flashed the kernel + modem as well. My dad has a stock (completely stock) Note 2 and I'll see whether it's an isolated issue with me or if we just don't get the signal for LTE out this far yet.

I'm in Chandler and my speed got bumped to 16Mb up and 5Mb down even though Soeedtest says I'm only connected ad Umts. Using MyRom TMobile with the LTE modem. To top it off, got switched to Truly Nationwide Unlimited 4G for free.

I chose option 6 but after reading your post I went ahead and chose the option LTE only (all bands) and I finally got a 4G LTE signal but 0 bars.
Funny thing is I still get internet connection but my speeds were 9637/627.

NO LTE WHATSOEVER!! any help to get it running on lte would be greatly apricated.
P.s yes ive recently had lte and where I live there 4g lte here.

I've got the exact same issue. Just got my Straight Talk LTE sim card. Popped it into my unlocked T988, but still only getting hspa+. Any ideas?
Currently on Beanstalk, in case that makes a difference.
Edit: Just updated to the latest tmobile modem and I got LTE on straight talk! Have to change your settings to "LTE preferred", and the signal is much weaker than HSPA+, but it's there. Awesome

Can you post screenshots of it

This HERE^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ is the QUESTION!!! Because I'm use TMO GN2 on AT&T and I get LTE no problem. And keep in mind I didn't perform any hacks to get it to work. Just flashed a at Rom, unlocked it that's it. Works like a champ with the att SIM.
One thing I will note that the AT&T Rom, changes the TMO model#. To the AT&T model# I317. Not a big deal, but might possibly why!
I have the latest MODEM on my TMO GN2...that's all I changed on that device...

You can flash either the AT & T or T-Mobile ROMS on your Note2, just make sure not to install AT & T Note 2 modem on your T-Mobile phone.
If you flash the latest Modem/Radio from T-Mobile section , you should be able to get LTE working.

Do you know what you're talking about?? Is the question!
But for your info, yes you can flash a AT&T Rom on your T-Mobile GN2.
Just as the last poster stated!!
Because most Rom's DO NOT include the modem bin... so that's why there cross flashable FYI..
As you can see in the screen shot I'm running Skynote on a TMO GN2 with, ABSOLUTELY no problems!!
There practically the same device. With a different modem for the carriers!

Will a D855 g3 work io US AT&T LTE?

I just ordered an (international) D855, which seems to have specs for LTE compatible with AT&T. Can anyone say for sure if this g3 will work with US AT&T LTE? and other AT&T systems ok?

Look here for all current used worldwide LTE bands http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks. Here are the D855 supported LTE bands http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_g3-6294.php so to answer your question i think not.

Thank you.

I have the same question, D855 seems to have 700 and 1700 LTE bands on which Att operate here, so I am assuming it does get LTE

Seeing as they all have the same bands the f400 and the d855 it means it will get LTE

Is this the same d855 from Hong Kong?

I paid $685 whixh I think is a good price. If it is fundamentally the same as the At&t version, then it's at least $100 less than AT&T typically charges for buying a device outright. And it's unlocked with 3Gb.
Well it all depends on if it works!

D855 Network --> :LTE 700/800/900/1800/2100/2300/2600
No mention of the band 1700.
one of the US seller sells it in the USA and clearly mentions that this model will not support LTE in the USA. hope this helps.
LG G3 D855 LTE 32GB White Quad-core Android GSM unlocked phone
Please note that the LTE 4G network works in Europe and Asia only. 4G LTE 700 / 800 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2300 / 2600 network is not compatible in the United States.

Does it?
Does it work in the US? Have you tested it yet?

I was on chat with AT&T the other day. They said the phone must have the 700mHz/band 17, it should in theory, work on their LTE. Also said if it has the 2100 it must have the 1700 as they rely on each other, but as long as it did have the 700 it could work although there were no guarantees. I have been eyeing up the d855 too but waiting for solid evidence first!

D855
if you would like to connect on AT&T 4G LTE on 700 MHz spectrum you would need band 17 and LG G3 - D855 supports LTE bands 3, 7, 20.
So you cannot get 4G LTE on D855. Hope this helps.
