Seriously..?? Not trying to offend? but yet you post in open forum that he sounds like a novice? Were you a novice once? Remember those days? Then lay off man, let the man do his thing and mind your own damn business. He's trying to help. Instead of busting on him, why not say thank you? What the hell is wrong with people these days...damn

Seriously???.....you get that pissed off over a post from 6 months ago?????

Everything being "discovered" in this thread was discovered and discussed 5-6 months ago. The bottom line is that in all likelihood, these changes do nothing and make your device very unstable! The OP, in an earlier thread, said they were removing it from their device due to the instability it causes.

If you want to re-discover the wheel, go ahead. You might try reading the entire thread before you proceed so you don't wind up posting a "HELP ME, MY STREAK IS BRICKED" post later!

I'm actually using this mod with SimpleStreak 1.2 and it works a treat.. it doesn't work with StreakDroid 1.6+, for some reason it clashes with something.

this is the script I use:

Code:

ro.ril.enable.dtm=1
ro.ril.gprsclass=12
ro.ril.hep=1
ro.ril.enable.3g.prefix=1
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=8
ro.ril.hsupa.category=6
ro.ril.hsxpa=5

works a treat,... Meaning what kind of speeds/improvements are you getting?

Mark X · Jun 26, 2011

Well, Im guessing that performance will be based on particular carrier settings?

Anyways, I changed the gprs setting to "10". Had no reboots yet. Seems to be an improvement speed/connectivity wise.

EDIT: gprs and hsdpa seemingly work a charm, 3g is broken tho. Gonna change the 3g setting around.

where in aus r u from? I'm from inner west sydney on optus prepaid..

it would be cool if everyone can say what carrier they're using and what setting work for them or what changes they made that = to better or worse... also rom and baseband would help too

I'm gonna try changing gprs to 10 to see what happens..

CHEERS!

Brisbane. On Exetel (Optus). I've definitely had an improvement. Had hsdpa today whereas before I barely had gprs, though it hit 3g and seemingly stopped transferring data.

I think optus did something with their network coz when I 1st got my streak I didn't have any problems at all untill the end of the year.. now Im lucky to get a connection 50% of the time.. I'm even on the original baseband and still no change.. my wife is on optus prepaid but on a motorola defy and she has excellent reception with hspa 99% of the time.. its really strange

djscopesofm · Jun 26, 2011

just did a speed test after changing to gprs to class 10:

ping 124ms, down 2.5, up 1.62

which is better than I've ever got... which is strange

Yeah, I think they have too. Oddly enough, I was getting similar results to how it used to be, with that script. I dont know, still testing.

AT&T 3G Settings for Streak

How to Increase AT&T 3G Speed on Android

Includes step by step to editing build.prop via ADB or Root Explorer.

Mark X · Jun 29, 2011

Simple Streak 1.2 w/ perfmod nooc.

Optus (Exetel) Australia - Brisbane.

This is the script I use:

Code:

ro.ril.enable.dtm=1
ro.ril.gprsclass=10
ro.ril.hep=1
ro.ril.enable.3g.prefix=1
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=8
ro.ril.hsupa.category=6
ro.ril.hsxpa=5

Stable and a definite increase in connectivity. Speeds "appear" faster, though I cannot confirm this.

Ive actually not tried for an 'extended period'. I just know with this tweak, Im now getting 3g/hsdpa whereas before i barely had a gprs connection. Without doubt, its an improvement, and with 10 gprs its completely stable (for me).

Thank you! I have updated my post and linked back to your post.

did anone find out what hsxpa=5 is?, if anything it must be settings for some serious "4g" up/down speeds??

spent hours researching all the ro.ril. properties and I can truly say that going higher then hsxpa=2 is useless as when I change it to 3, 4 or 5 it makes no difference and in most cases made it worse.

I've realised that setting dtm to 0 lets u connect to HSxPA faster and increases ping.

hep set to 0 makes no noticeable change but I will leave it on 0.

Check the original post for all the changes. A lot of work went into this. If anyone has anymore info, I would greatly appreciate it.

It would also be great if every shared the script they use with which network.

I used your settings from the first page and its working great definitly has speed up my DL speed and UL speed is consistant.
