so im tired of the slow bandwidth on the tp... here my idea

Tilde88 · #1 (**permalink**) 06-25-2009, 03:00 PM

i remember a few days back i was thinking if I'd be able to flash the radio of another CDMA device to my TP. My first thought was from the Rose, cuz its so close (visually) to the TP.... and incidently i ran across a thread on XDA that someone had tried it and bricked the deivce... My question is what if we were to hex sign a Mogul radio for the Raphael? Seeing as how a mogul is in the ssme model series (6800) as the TP (6850)... As opposed to the Rose which is model s740... I would try but Im out of town till tomorrow night...
Maybe it's not just the diamond we can share radios with?

Far as I know there are only a few radius that can be flashed onto a TP. The list includes: Diamond! lol I know people have tried to hack up other phone radios for the TP but most either get a hard brick or a semi-brick.

What slow bandwidth?

I get around 853.00kbps. He must have had WIFI connected when doing that speed test

No Wi-Fi involved... it's off.

Here is a glimpse at what I have to deal with as a USCC customer.

In real life my touch is 2x times faster download speed then touch pro.

EVDO Rev A is limited to, as far as I know, to 3.1mbps. This is up from 2.4mbps in EVDO (Rev 0), and definitely not capable of reaching 13.02mps that you've achieved. Not to mention that it's estimating your bandwidth on onlu a 0.15sec sample.

The download test is a result of caching, WiFi connection, or an ActiveSync connection.

BTW your ping alone would've been greater than the 0.15sec it supposedly took to download the 250kb file.

It's gotta be caching. Similar thing happened to me with dslreports speed test showing ~30Mbps. And 250k is too small a file for an accurate speed test, I thought. Do a 1MB file and see what you get.
