[Q] Download and Upload speeds swaped !!!

Did not see any previous treads that mentioned this condition.
Its been going on for a while since I started flashing ICS. Three different builds by different Dev's and I get the same results Slow download speed and CRAZY fast upload speeds,with good 3G and 4G connections, I live in a metro area with tons of anteneas and towers around me. Using control Epic (Wifey's stock Epic) on same networks while running speedtest at the same time on both Epics.
I still get data, but its butt slow while stock Epic just wizzes along with Youtube, play store, Emails, whatever it is concerning data. This time around WiFi is not affected that works fine on both phones, streaming, downloading, both are equal. On on build i had reverse WiFi speeds also, but not this time.
Anyone come across this BUG??? Currently running Calk's E4GT 2 v1.2, FC18 Modem, ICS 4 ICS theme. Great looks fast Rom everything works, (kinda)
Rouge recovery.
When I revert back to stock/rooted EL29 all is normal again. Fast D/L - slow U/L.
Pp.:confused
PS. Second time around with this question.

Common where are those android brains, is this stumping you guys!!!
Give it your best shot, I'll consider any idea or suggestion. Don't just look , post.!!

try changing your modem?

Will try fc22 see how that works. maybe reflash rom too.

did it work?

No. Still the same. Luckely I'm around WiFi most of the time. On FC22 modem. Now.

very strange

I'm having the same problem. I'm also in a metro area (NYC). Fast data on stock/gingerbread ROMs. Slow data on any ICS roms. and i mean slooooooow.
I've flashed multiple ROMS, kernals and modems, no avail.
I actually get decent speeds in Manhattan (but not stellar) but in Brooklyn (a mere 12 miles away) i get .10 Mb speeds, no exaggeration. I find it hard to believe that someone is going to tell me that Brooklyn won't have the towers i need for decent data.
Wifi works perfectly on both ICS and GB.
We can't be the only two having this problem. I've googled it and searched the forum but I can't find an answer. Could it be that ICS isn't officially out for the e4gt yet so the ROMs are having flakey service?
Please help, anyone.
On a side note thought, the ROMs that I have tried have no other major issues for me. great job to those who developed them!

[Q] Complete Loss of Signal

I'm not sure if this is the right board to post this in, but here goes. I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus on Verizon. I was running AOKP Milestone 5 and Franco Kernel Build 185 and things were great. Then yesterday I randomly didn't get any signal when I got back to my house. Before I always got enough signal to make calls and text. I thought that was weird, so I did a complete wipe and upgraded to AOKP Build 38 and Franco Kernel 185 again. I still had no signal. Thinking I messed something up in the process, I reverted back to a month old Nandroid when I had no problems, still nothing, after this I went back to AOKP Build 38 and Franco Kernel 185 again. I tried reflashing the 4.0.4 radio's before and that didn't work either. It has to be my phone because my parents and sibiling both still get signal fine with their non-smart phones. I'm willing to unroot my phone if it means getting service again. I've never really encountered this problem and would love it if anyone could point me in the right direction to fixing this problem. I took two screenshots of my phone status for you to look at

If it's the phone and won't get a signal after what you've tried.. I would say either a bad sim (not sure how the sim could just go bad) or.. hell, radio failure? Sounds strange. Usually when people lose signal rebooting or airplane mode works..

Super slow speeds on any ICS ROM

Someone please help. I've been up and down forums looking for the answer.
I've flashed cm9, aokp, Calkulin's, and quite a few more and now with the official release of ICS for e4gt, the STOCK ROM for it as well.
I've also flashed numerous modems (more than half of what is out there now) and to no avail im getting .16Mb DL and .38Mb UL.
It makes the phone nearly unusable on 3g/4g, yet wifi works perfectly.
I've updated Profile AND PRL, I've done a clean wipe, cache partition, and dalvik. I've pretty much followed every rule there is about rooting and ROMs carefully.
I need some major help or at least someone tell me that I'm doomed with GB for the rest of my phones existence, I really need an answer because its driving me nuts.
All help is beyond greatly appreciated.

indeed i have. i am currently running the new OTA stock, equip with FF18.
I was on a custom TSM_Revamped so i had to force the update. i did not receive the OTA automatically, if that matters.

I had the same issues with Ics. I reverted back to GB roms for my speeds. All I can say is wait a bit and see if some devs push out re worked kernels for the ics since source is out and about. I had best luck with the ff11 modem. But when I updated the profile and prl it became worse. So keep your head high. and hopefully the awesome devs do some magic for the kernals

I'll come back to post and I'll let I you know if I come across some worthy mentions

I have been having issues with 4G after upgrading to FF18 and was wondering if you could give me any insight...
Two friends of mine and myself all have the E4GT and have upgraded to FF18 using the One-Click Factory Reset package.
Pretty much what happens is that when I connect to 4G, my upload speeds are now around 150kbps down and 1500kbps up, when they used to hit around 5000kbps up and 1500kbps down. We are all having the same issue and live in NYC.
I've reverted back to EK02 using your One-Click, ran speedtests again and everything worked fine. I then let the OTA of EL29 install and 4G also works fine on that one. I then tried installing FF18 again and 4G speeds were back at 100-150kbps. I've tried the FF18 rooted, FF18 stock, and tried just using the recovery to run the update package from my SDCard while on stock EL29 and they all yield the same result.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for all of your help!

That's what i had thought at first but i heard the same from people in DC as well as a few other big cities. However the problem isn't consistent and appears to be few and far between with the users having this problem (or they're just not commenting). No one has a definitive answer yet. I'm in the "wait and see" stage since the official ICS has dropped for the e4gt and hope that someone fixes the problem along the line.
ICS is just too pretty not to have lol. If i hear or do anything that fixes the problem, i'll be sure to post it up.
p.s. data speeds are decent in Manhattan though but still not "4g" even thought it shows the bars. It's better but not top speeds.
Sorry I couldn't be much help

It wouldn't have mattered. If you stood on FD19 the 4g would had crapped out on you sooner or later. I started off good I had perfectly working 4g on every ICS builds even on FF 18. It just crapped out on me out of nowhere. Reverting to an older ICS leak does not fix it. Only gingerbread will fix it..

These are leaks btw, so you will need to flash your odin skills.

[Q] Vancouver and Lower Mainland LTE-Telus

Wondering what you're experiences are with LTE. I've gotten blindingly fast speeds when I get an LTE connection--50mbps but for the week that I've had the S3 that's only happened about 2 or 3 times.
Telus tech support said nothing as far as whether this is normal or not, wondering what others are experiencing. Normal or not?

Figured it out I think. Had the phone rooted and seemed to have lost the ability to toggle connections. Flashed back to stock last night and have had LTE back consistently.
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda premium

I was able to get mid to upper 40 Mbps in New West late at night once. It lasted all the way till the Ikea beside Hwy 1. The download speed was so fast that I thought my Speedtest.net app wasn't showing the whole download animation. :laugh:
Other than that I don't go into LTE areas much. This will probably change in the Fall as the roll out continues. I live on the border of the roll out and where I work is not covered yet but should be soon (Surrey).
When you went back to stock are you still rooted? Some ROMs do not support the LTE switch because they are based on AT&T ROMs.
I've been using Task's AOKP ROM since it has the LTE switch enabled (read the OP) even though he doesn't officially support it. It works great.
KyanROM's LTE switch also works since it is based on Rogers S3 ROM.

Haha, I know what you mean with the Speedtest animation!
I'm currently stock and unrooted now. I still haven't tried a custom rom yet since I'm still a little paranoid about losing my iemi number unfortunately. However the rooting method I used was the nontripping root method which as far as I can tell uses the stock carrier rom then injects an exploit. Soooo who knows, maybe I'll look into it again as may have overlooked something.

Ah yes, the IMEI fear. I totally get you on this. I waited about 3 weeks before rooting and then another couple weeks until flashing a ROM. And this is coming from flashing the crap out of my HTC Hero for the last 2.5 years. I HIGHLY recommend going to these 2 threads and backing up your IMEI number in case anything goes wrong in the future. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801997 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804117
If you decide to root, install the TWRP recovery. It was observed that people who used TWP over CWM hardly had any IMEI issues, if any at all. Jury's still out on this though. Take it with a grain of salt. I've flashed numerous times and have not had any issues. TWRP can be installed by way of https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.s0up.goomanager&hl=en - you need root to run this.

So I reflashed the rooted rom last night and haven't experienced the LTE problem again, I'm happy with that for now.
What the consensus with Task's AOKP, I took a look at the "known issues" list and it just looks a little to long for me at the moment. After flashing my S1 typically several times a week, I think I'm really just longing for some stability. That and my family misses me.

Well, i was on the same boat where I was afraid of losing the IMEI. But it's not a problem any more. Those devs here have it all figured out pretty much. You can back up your IMEI before you messing with your S3
As soon as I use stock based roms - whether it's based on Rogers or AT&T roms, the LTE connection is pretty solid within the coverage. However, the AOSP based roms are not very friendly with canadian LTE.... I constantly go back and forth from H+ to 4G on CM10.. The battery life is kinda sucked... The one of two reasons I have to come back with stock roms....
Oh, btw, I believe 40 - 45ish mbps speed is pretty normal on LTE as long as you hold a good connection.

I think I'm just gonna wait till the devs have things nicely smoothed out for now.
I remember back in the olden days (couple weeks ago) when a guy lost his IMEI he'd just replace his efs folder with a backup, reboot and voila! So easy, so simple...

Well, I've read about the links to backing up the IMEI files and QPST tool to backup, and have now figured out how to use ABD finally to push cwm to my phone. So, I'm wondering if you guys have any new roms you're liking in particular or can recommend.
I know Task's AOKP is a popular one and I've been kicking around CM10 and have been eyeing Slimbean since I spent alot of time with that one on my S1.

I've been rocking WanamLite 1.3 the last few days and it is very good. It is based on the latest release for the I747M for Canadian carriers which is VLALH1 I think. This is an ICS Sammy based ROM. I have ktoonsez's latest kernel installed and it is very nice overall. (Note, I do have the latest modem installed - the one that came with VLALH1, not that it has anything to do with ROM performance.) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782732
The ROM before that was Slimbean. Since you've used it before you're probably more familiar with it than I. I found it to be nice too. Close to what Task's AOKP ROM is. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1865262

Dropped calls running AOKP

I'm wondering if this is a ROM problem or problem with my local Verizon service.
I'm getting very frequent dropped calls. In the Seattle area we have 4g service, I'm running AOKP Toro jb milestone 1.
Service drops to 0 bars, then after several seconds, comes back. Generally to show 3 bars of 4G service.
I was contemplating going back to stock to see if the problem is the same. But I thought I'd post here first to see if it may be a ROM problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks, RWM

I would use the new radios FG02. This might help. Helps with spotty transitions of 4G lte to 3G.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Mods please move this thread to general

If 4g drops to no signal and then comes back it could be hardware related. If you have the latest radios on your phone and this still happens you may need to get a replacement phone. If you take it to Verizon they'll probably try to swap the SIM first.

To return to Verizon do you think I should go back to stock first?

I would to be safe. If you're returning it, use the factory image and relock the bootloader.

I've had this issue too but only on AOKP milestone 1...dunno what it is. I've noticed when it happens "system ui" fails which has also happened when using the phone.

I haven't dropped any calls, but I get data drops every now and then.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I have this same issue, it only happens when I have good signal, when my signal is weak it's fine, it's only when I have strong signal or 4g, I assume it's a hardware issue at least for myself, because I haven't noticed a difference with different roms

Welcome to the Android Community. For sure you will find the answer to all your questions regarding android in these forums. With that said, make you read before you post. It makes you look like a noob and rightly so. This is for the Development Contribution alone. This should have been posted in the Q&A or General forum.. BTW your device is deffective- return it until you get a good one. It took me 5 times. Talk to Tech Support Level 2 when you call Verizon no one else.

Hey was wondering if you ever figured out this issue, im having the same problems only mine drops the call every 30 exactly. If i use the phone for say 28 minutes then the next call will drop in 2 min to finish out the original 30. I have been having this problem for awhile but was never this predictable, gone through many different radios, roms, eery did a factory wipe with a full wipe of everything and reinstalled xenonHD rom build number JOP40G. Please any help would be awesome. Thanks Also in the seattle area.

Hi, I am running AOKP JB 4.2 milestone 2 on my Galaxy Nexus and experiencing the same problem. My calls dropped after some time between 5 an 30 minutes with "Out of area service" alert. I am from the Czech Republic using Vodafone. I tried getRIL to install matching RIL (baseband i9250XXKK1), but this did not help. Before this I was running old AOKP ICS 4.0 without any problem. Does anyone have an idea, how to solve this problem?
Thank you very much.

SOLUTION: I finally found out a solution for my problem. I reflashed radio firmware to the new version (i9250XXLJ1) and installed matching RIL using GetRIL. Now everything works without any problem.
