Dang, that doesn't sound good

My GB rom: 16.30 Mbps
CleanROM: 4.07 Mbps

I ran three spreed tests on each rom, at the same location on Speakeasy.net
Is this normal for the MR4 rom?
By the way, these were with the 2.11.605.19 radios.

I've tried other mr4 based roms and the speeds are low too. I know that normal speed app don't read the speeds correctly. On the other roms I've been able to flash the imoseyon 6.1 kernel for gb 3.6 and the speeds increase dramatically after doing the speedtweak.sh command. Maybe try flashing that kernel. I haven't tried this ROM yet but since its based on the same leak it should work too.

You can also try the xfinity speed site on your browser to check speeds. It works better than other sites or apps.

That increased network speed?

It does increase network speed. Not because the kernel is faster (although it is) but because the ROM interfaces incorrectly with the network hardware unless IMOs 6.1 kernel is used. I read a LITTLE about it, and it does make a huge difference.

do the widgets flicker like other mr4 roms???

Yeah, thats low for some reason. I am at work right now and cannot test but I will do so when I get home tonight.

Also, could you post the specific PRI and PRL and base band version you have please?

You can get those in settings -> About Phone -> Software Info then base band is on "More"


Thanks!

Can you link to the specific kernel you are referring to please? I would like to take a look at this....

Also, has anyone used the actual radios from the leak?

I dont see any flicker. Can you give a specific example and I can test.

Thanks for posting that.

We are runnig same PRL / PRI but I have an older radio. I have 1.48.00.0726w_2 and 0.01.78.0802W_3.

Wich makes sense because I just got the phone a cxouple days ago and have not had time to play with Radios.

I am going to try the recomended kernel first and see how that affects things then I am going to try the actualy MR4 Radio unless someone knows of any issues with it?
