averaging 350kbps data on Sprint TP2, wtf
 

is anyone else experiencing this? I used to average 1000kbps on my old TP2. Ive only had this phone for 8 months and the data is actually usually ok, but inthe last month its gotten so slow, its bad. I dont have time to call Sprint either during the day. Any ideas? Ive tried several different towns and its never good.

Actually, the wifi is slow as well. Sitting a few yards from the router and I only get about 460kbps. The laptop gets 4400kbps.

Call sprint during the evening.

ok dumb questions. have you updated your PRL, profile and updated to the latest Sprint radio? The latest radio is 2.32.00WF and the latest PRL is version 60664

I have that radio, but my PRL version is 60660. Guess I'll try updating that after work and after I hit the gym.

You should always keep your PRL up to date. I wish they would be able to push the latest PRL automatically to the customer.

Didnt try any regedit tweaks? Like changing the tcp window size? Or use tcptune.

i've stayed on 60659 prl, and have the new sprint radio, and I usually only get 400-900 kbps

ive noticed i clocked at about 1mbps a few weeks ago now my tethering has just been lagging...could someone help me out with some tweaks?

i think it depends on location though..thank god its almost evo time!

Re: averaging 350kbps data on Sprint TP2, wtf
 

well, all my speed tests are done on the mobile browser, I don't tether very often due to a 4g clearwire stick.

wow i average around 50kbps so 350 sounds kind of great! lol

Re: averaging 350kbps data on Sprint TP2, wtf
 

50kbps wtf? What, you in a dead zone allmost or what? Even 1x goes faster then that. Scarey ... sounds like dial-up. yuck

Re: averaging 350kbps data on Sprint TP2, wtf
 

I also average around 50kbps all the time and the EVDO icon is on the task bar of the HTC TP2. I am on Sprint also. So, there real conclusion is, internet speeds on Sprint are not even close to what they brag about or more sadly as advertised.

Not everyone gets the same results and service isnt guaranteed indoors.

Re: averaging 350kbps data on Sprint TP2, wtf
 

yea i guess you could call it a dead zone almost... sprint says i dont have evdo in my area and the only way i am able to get Ev is if i select HDR Only in EPST or use WMLongLife (buggy).... and both of those lock the phone in Ev so i am unable to reci8-[works in my advantage, sometimes it doesnt...

I am desperately searching for a method to allow me to get Ev and switch back to 1X automatically for calls and texts... ive searched for this for than anything, i think its an addiction 8-[

Not to be off topic but this is why I see 4G as a definite upgrade.
My 3G data speed is all over the place all over the place also.
So based on the comments here, it appears to me that they've patched together & maxed out all they can on the 3g pipe without consistent end results.

Now, it could be just some network issues but I tend to think that moving ppl off of 3g onto 4g alleviates some of the bottenecks & would improve speed.
