Data speed slow on aokp/cm roms - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hi guys,
I have noticed that my phone data speed drastically slows on any aokp/cm roms.
I was on Touchwiz rom with uvmc6 radio and then I installed cyanogenmod 11 alpha 3 and with same radio the speed went half.
Where I live here we have Edge service. On touchwiz roms I touch 20-25 KBps whereas it merely touches 15 KBps on aosp based roms. The latency is also slow.
Is there any solution to it? Can anbody tell which settings does samsung use to make it fast? Maybe i could add something to build.prop to make it fast.
Thanks

Try this courtesy of @TripFX:
Go into "Settings"
Under "Wireless & network" click More...
then click "mobile networks"
then click "Access Point Names"
click hard menu button then "new apn"
enter this
Name: T-Mobile US LTE
APN: fast.t-mobile.com
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN type: default,supl,mms
APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6
Save and reboot.
Our phone can't get LTE speed but I do get better reception & speed with this.

Hi,
Thanks but it's not an apn issue. Same apn settings perform different results on touchwiz and aosp based roms. Do you think there could be any settings in some system files?

I don't know, haven't really had this happen and I've used AOKP and CM lately. Did you check to make sure "Use only 2G" isn't checked in mobile network settings? Also maybe change your DNS settings to get slightly better speed.

Ok thanks. I will give Google dns a go. Will update if find any improvements.

Hello,
It hasn't helped much. Any other tips I can try?

Maybe try the Fresh Network app on Play. I really do think the ROM flash and your speed reduction was a coincidence as I've have flashed so many ROMs over the last 2 years and never experienced that. Then again everybody can have different things happen that others never have a problem with.
Also as a last resort maybe re-flash the latest radio via ODIN and see what happens.

Thanks. I have tried those signal boosters as well but I guess it has to do this with my network may be
I also have odined back to stock and re-rooted phone and then tried cm but it produces the same results. On touchwiz roms it works very well. Anyway, thanks a lot for your help. I'm attaching my network screenshot for reference.

It's been said that it speeds up browsing over the mobile network, since there's no "middle man".

Change it on GB or ICS TW and flash back to an AoSP rom, its stored in NVRAM so it is persistent across flashes, I changed it a long time ago, and have flashed multiple times since and mine is still nulled. Also if you use the newest 3g turbocharger script that supports cdma that is one of the changes made on all settings for it. Just find the script in the v6 thread and run it in script manager if you don't wanna flash back and forth its a quick way to change it. After several tests I've seen same to drastically improved results with the new cdma enabled version of the script. Haven't seen any negative effects at all either the speeds only improve by .1mbps to a few kbps or improve around 700-800kbps. I'm currently getting 1.1-1.7mbps peak and 2-2.8mbps off peak since going to fd24 modem and running the turbocharger

Data problems with CM10

This is my first post. I have been rooted, learning, flashing ROMs and other stuff for about a year now. I'm on aero's CM10 10/11 build and ever since I installed it my data randomly goes from 3g to 1xx and signal is always at 1 bar. I don't have any problems when I switch to backups of other ROMs. Is any one else experiencing this and any thoughs would be appreciated.
Also wanted to share that I can go to settings/sounds and reselect my ringtone for a quick fix for audio. I thought it might be helpful to someone but I did not have enough posts to post in thread.

I also have this issue on CM10 based roms, I did upgrade to the latest radio .320 and has helped a little but it still happens from time to time. That is why I keep going back to ICS for now. I think a lot of my problems are my location, I live in a small town and not the best coverage.

Be sure your metal contacts are making good contact with the back plate, I also live in a low service area and service is never really great here, but with my old DX2 it had consistently better signal.
Sent from my Incredible 2 using xda app-developers app
I appreciate the info but I have already tried all the above and I previously and installed the new radio .320 and ics frameware when it was posted on xda. One strong thing to me I noticed it only looses the data connection when I'm on the web or on a app that needs a 3g connection. I'm going to try the 10/16 build tomorrow and see if it changes anything. Thanks

Have you checked your Gsm,Cdma,Evdo, settings?
I'm on the newest build now and it's back to normal the signal still isn't the best but that's typical for our device. I have been on the newest build since last night and it has not dropped data yet. So, so far so good

Try a Different CM 10 build
DKStunna has done a pretty good job with his build. It runs nicely, you do get a random FC (force close) every now and again. GSM doesn't work, and MMS doesn't work on verizon until you put in the APN in the thread:
Go to System Settings > More... (under wireless and networks) > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
-Press Menu
-Select New APN
-Put in this info:
Name = Verizon
APN = internet
MMSC = http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms

after a lot of determination and prior experience with this problem i realized that once you input the same apn a couple of times it eventually registers, i have 8 of the same apns under different names (the names do not have to be specific for data to work)

How to check APN settings

There are a lot of threads out there about how to check and back up APN settings and then restore them if need be. What's the most reliable and easiest way that someone can recommend?
I'm on CM10 nightlies with MY kernel
Thank you.

Honestly I just kept a screen shot or two of the att APN settings. Only time I have needed it is with Black jelly ROM as it came with Cingular apn.
BTW, APN settings is under settings -> more settings -> mobile networks....

Don't forget it to store that ss somewhere it won't get erased, like Dropbox. On case you accidentally wipe your internal/external sd card

Can't change apn

I flashed the urban karnage 1.5 today and now my cell signal is no longer set up correctly. This rom does not let you set you manual apn's. Anybody's thoughts on why I am only getting 3g where I used to get lte?

I managed to get into the APN settings and make the correct changes but it was useless I still could not get on the HSPA network that I could get on my stock rom

Weird issue with any AOSP Rom...any ideas?

Ok, so I'm not new to flashing roms and messing with stuff if needed, but recently I've come to find that my AT&T Galaxy Note 2 refuses to have a data connection other than wi-fi when I flash a rom based off of anything but stock. For example...my Jedi X9 rom works fine...CleanROM works fine...stock works fine. However, anything like CM10, CM10.1, Paranoid Android, JellyBeer, JellyBam(the one I REALLY wanted to work in the first place...) all have grey signal bars and absolutely no data when wifi is turned off. I went as far as about a week ago flashing the thing completely stock in Odin and wiping everything out, then redoing custom recovery and everything. Does anyone have any idea? I've seen people having similar issues, but obviously not everybody does, or there would be posts everywhere. I posted a few times in specific rom threads but nobody had any ideas that worked yet. Just wanted to get this out there and see if anyone has a solution or some ideas to try.
Right apn?

Can you post a screenshot of your apn, Ill be glad to help.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
I am having the exact same problem as the OP...all my apn settings line up with the settings i've seen posted. I reset apn and the phone automatically picked AT&T LTE, however when I click on about phone and then status, it says mobile network state: disconnected. Any stock based rom works perfectly. Thanks in advance.
I've checked APN settings in all of those.ROMs and everything was perfect according to the ROM maker, just no connection. Phone calls and SMS work, but no MMS and no data. Its gotta be something deeper than the settings menu. I've also flashed the k7 modem over them to no effect. I even flashed back to completely new with Odin before. Basically, any ROM that is not stock based does this, which is why Im back on Jedi xp9.
BTW drew, it says disconnected anytime you're on WiFi, that's gonna happen on any Rom. The grey bars is the giveaway to show no data connection ever.

When you guys look at your APN under att lte does it say pta or does it day phone? I've noticed this between touch wiz ROM and aosp. When I flash touch wiz in my APN has phone. Flash cm10 or any of these aosp roms it has pta. I read that att is getting rid of the pta and is using phone for there APN setting. Have you guys tried that in your APN settings? Mine works on both still but I have noticed with pta it would go gray sometimes.

I don't seem to have any data problems with CM10.1 and JellyBeer when I toggle the wifi switch, unless it connects to a network with very low to no reception. When that happens, the phone just says "no connection" even though phone calls, SMS and MMS texts, and internet usage still work.

yes, i started a new profile called ATT PHONE
and then under where it said 'pta' before i changed that to 'phone' also
Still nothing on mine. I think my phone just hates me.
mine says

MMS Proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410

APN type: default,mms,supl,hipri
Still no luck though. I was trying this after a Twrp backup...which then promply erased my entire SD card for some reason...so I get to go start from scratch anyway, again.
Finally got it! At last...
ATT LTE -name
APN phone
proxy not set
port not set
username and password not set
server not set
mmsc http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
mmsc proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
mms port 80
mcc 310
mnc 410
authen. not set
apn type default, supl, mms
apn protocol ipv4
apn roaming protocol ipv4
bearer unspecified.
Not sure why this worked, but it did!
