Is anyone else feeling like 3g is super slow? I just moved to l.a and my 3g hangs and is slower than usual.... I can't even play youtube videos like before. Now I have to let it load for a couple minutes :\

Just asking if anyone else is experiencing lag in the l.a area or anywhere in general.... and is there a fix?

3G turbocharger by Zepplinrox is a miracle worker used to get .60mbs download now pushing almost 2 and half mbs full bars I'll link you to it in a minute... make sure you find the 3G Turbocharger RC 3.txt and have script manager from the market... and I'll give you instructions unless you want to read the thread about it.

If I am using a custom rom like CleanGB, does that already have the 3G charger built in?

Nope.... some roms though may incorporate another linux tweak but most don't okay instructions

1. Open script manager and find the rc3.txt
2. A screen will pop up and make sure that the su icon is green or checked this means your running as root. Hit run
3. The command line will go through its script and at the end it will give you 6 options to choose from to boost speed.
4. There is not best option you need to play with them. So prior to installation you should run a speedtest.net to see what your current stats are.
5. Select whichever option I use epieremental 1, and reboot.
6. Run a test and see if its better
7. Test all of them and see which has the best result for you.

If you have any questions feel free to ask.

It doesn't eat thru battery right? It just modifies my 3g settings?

No it doesn't eat through battery even regualr 3g does that
It adds values to your build.prop to edit your 3g connectivity

Thank you for linking us to this. The forum page seems terribly confusing - do I simply need to

1. install script manager and copy the script
2. install the script
3. choose speed option


Anything else?

Edit: Also am I downloading the entire V6 script here or am I looking for just the 3G? Please link me directly to the script I need to implement these tweaks?

Thanks!

Wifi fixer is if you think wifi is broken it will delete the wpa_supplicant.inf which usually fixes broken wifi connections after a reboot
