UPDATE:
Most users that have flashed this radio are reporting increased download speeds as well as HUSPA upload speeds and better latency/ping times. HOWEVER, several users have reported an increase in the amount of heat dissipated which, combined with run-away apps that are constantly churning data, could cause your phone to get hot.

There have been a lot of questions about inconsistent speed tests. I've even seen some posts claim that they're download speed has gone down. Please use some common sense here and understand that there are many factors that come in to play including SpeedTest, local towers, network congestion, etc.

Also, please be advised that you must use RSD Lite under Windows to flash this radio.

ORIGINAL POST:
All credit goes to NFHimself from whom I got the idea and who helped me work through the kinks.

Attached is a zip file containing 2 separate sbf files. You will want the SBF for the 1.87 baseband radio which is the same one that shipped with the Telstra 1.4.2 update. It should not require a reset as it's the radio only, and I have successfully flashed it to my ATT phone using RSD Lite giving me upload speeds slightly higher than my dl speeds (currently showing just under 2Mb).

I am also providing a radio only sdf of the stock ATT radio that recently shipped so that you can go back if need be.

Keep in mind that while it did work for me, this has not been thoroughly tested and I will not be responsible if decide to use this and you brick your phone.

Enjoy!

Start greyed out on RSD for anyone else?

RSD Lite v5.0 here.

For me, I opened RSD Lite and selected the file. It came up on the right hand pane and on line 1 down below. When I clicked on line 1 towards the bottom, the phone info came up and I was able to click Start. Left the phone plugged in as it flashed and rebooted. Came up working fine and everything seems stable thus far including WiFi.

Did you unpack the zip 1st??? I unpacked the zip file, left both files on my desktop, then selected the 1.8.7 radio file in RSD lite

When I test speed on the computer using speedtest.net and speakeasy.net/speedtest, both start out fast(up to 1Mbps) on Upload speeds, but then drop and won't even complete the Upload test. Anyone else able to replicate this from a PC. I'm tethering.

I'm at a weak signal location right now, so it's nothing stellar, but Mobile Hotspot works fine

    Good to see folks on the att side getting better speeds. :)

    So we have established that sbf files can be edited, now to see what else can be done.

    I can't download the sbf as always display "This service is temporarily not available from your service area." Anyone can share the file?

    Thanks
