Slow data on CM7?

[gfinockio]

I just flashed CM7, and after installing a few apps again (a fresh clean install, finally!) I thought I test my speeds, because the Market seemed sluggish.

I'm getting maybe 15-20% of my usual data speed that I was getting with FR008.

What gives? Is this a known issue? Kernel problem?

No, this is not a common issue (never encountered this in fact). It's not kernel issue. Have you tried rebooting? Try testing your data speeds with the speedtest app on the market. Also, try giving the phone some time to settle down since you just flashed it (and did a clean install).

Speedtest gives me anywhere from 200-500kbps... I was getting 2500-3200kbps on FR008.

I have rebooted and actually even reflashed, plus tried a different kernel. Nothing seems to help. Even WiFi speeds are slow, though... although not nearly as slow as my 3G speeds!

It's so disappointing...

I'm running CM7.2 right now, and my speeds are fine.

Yeah - really can't seem to pinpoint the issue quite yet, but it is certainly related to CM7!

I'm having the same issue and I am running cm 7.2 (rc1?) I have tweaked everything i could think of with no change.

Maybe something didn't get cleared when you updated and it's causing weird problems. Try the following:

1) From CWM, make a backup so you can restore it if the following does not solve the problem.
2) Wipe data/factory reset
3) Partitions menu > Format system
4) Partitions menu > Format boot
5) Install CM7 and gapps
6) Reboot, and see if data speeds are still slow
7) If it didn't help, restore your previous backup and you won't have lost anything
