hey guys,

not sure if its me or what but has anyone noticed a dip in their internet speeds? is the overload of evos to blame? maybe its just a placebo affect

hahaha this is exactly what i posted the other day. and nobody said shit. i think its kinda true, i use a lot of roms, and i noticed the really slow internet ones, never have the 3g icon on the top task bar. so i decided to use the very first rom i ever used... Mr. x. now i have the 3g icon on the task bar and the net is a least 3 times faster then a lot of roms i've used LATELY(past month)

that 3g icon is just that, A STUPID ICON. you could make it the energizer bunny and it wouldn't do anything to your connection.
