Which settings are you using for optimal speed?

There is not much you can change out of the box to optimize performance. If you have the Tilt from AT&T then you are really screwed, since that ROM has so much bloat ware on it.

If you have the tilt you can do a hard reset, followed by a soft reset when it starts configure AT&T's bloat ware. This will give you the stripped down version of the ROM and you will still have AT&T's network settings. If that's not enough you can install Hard SPL and then flash any ROM you want. There are some stripped down just to the barebones. Finally, you can install the KaiserTweak which will let you choose how the Kaiser takes advantage of the RAM for the different caches.

I have the Kaiser.

I have 3G in my town but I am not impressed with the speed.

I thought maybe a few settings tweaks could improve it...

Default Are you talking about Download Speed or Performance Speed??

not sure if you are trying to improve network connection speeds or the device performance speeds? 3G only affects your internet connection speeds and has nothing to do with how quickly your device operates.

If you are not getting browsing speeds of at least over 300/kbs you might not have a 3G sim card. In that case you need to contact your carrier and request a 3G - 64K sim card.

Here is a link where you can test your connection speed. Make sure you see the 3G icon and you have a good signal.

Click the 1MB link to run the test.

I have the old Cingular Orange SIM Card. It says 64K smartchip in the front and 3G in the back.

Do you think this may be the cause of my slow speeds?

I am wondering the same thing. Does anyone know if there is a difference b/w the cingular 3G SIM vs the AT&T 3G SIM?

I have got my TyTn II two days back.

There seems to be some problem with Internet Speed whether it is on PIE or Opera 8.65 or Opera Mini. The problem is this:

1) On my HTC Touch I could get speeds of 250 Kilobits / second on my Edge connection. (There is no 3G in my country)

2) Now I have placed the SIM from the Touch to the TyTn II and my speeds have been almost halved. I cannot get more than 100 - 120 Kilobits / Second.

3) The Internet connection on both devices is configured exactly the same. I have tried numerous times but when the SIM is in the Touch I get 250 kbs but when the same SIM is in the TyTn II I get 100 Kilobits per second.

4) I use "Hudsonmobile Ipdashboard" to measure speeds in real time and this program gives a graph of the upload / download / total speeds.

Can somebody please help as this excellent device is being marred slow Internet connections.

Has anyone else noticed this.

Thanks
