Re: [MOD] The Governor Killer (UPDATE: WARNING!!!)

The Governor Killer definitely works (even tho it sounds like a future Schwarzenegger movie).. I tried it in Culver City CA on 3G and 4G before and after. And compared it side by side to an Evo in Upland CA. If you are doing 4G tethering and uploading alot it is definitely a MUST HAVE. For the rest of us not really unless maybe you video chat alot.

*All speeds are in Kbps

I felt like it made a small difference in 3G but until we get two Epics side by side its hard to prove. Same for 4G downloads. But it without a doubt increases 4G uploads 10-45%. The difference in 4G uploads is so huge I actually kind of doubt it works on anything else. My fastest 4G tests before were 7973 dwn and 1221 up, I never broke 1200 again before trying this update and I always thought Wimax was limited around 1000. After the update I hit a top upload of 1846 which is unheard of and I beat an Evo by 20% every upload when the Evo was getting downloads 30-50% faster. I would hit 4000 dwn 1200 up while the Evo hit 6000 dwn 1000 up. The Evo had stronger signal and beat the Epic by a wide margin every download; but my Epic, with the update, beat the Evo every upload by about 200. My second fastest was 1427 and I got very close or broke 1200 every time I had decent signal.

I just wish I could get Rev. A speeds like I used to on my Touch Pro. I was getting around 2500 regularly. Anyone know what happened?
