Xperia Ray :: Getting Low Internet Speeds On HSDPA?
Sep 6, 2012
Inspite of showing HSDPA and having a 3G pack in my mobile... I am still getting very low internet speed.When my SIM is inserted in other mobiles it works fine. But in my XPERIA RAY I am getting very low speed.Earlier it was fine but just 2 days back this problem got arise. Network settings are correct, I checked them.The Network operator asked me to update my phone. Which i did... I am having the latest Ice Cream Sandwich android version.
I have a Blackberry 9300 with OS 6 and latest updates for device
1.Internet speeds are slow around 50 to 60 kbps whereas it used to be around 120kbps
I have did a security wipe and re-loaded operating system software but prob still exsists I have turned internet browser configurations that might cause it to be slow Did a battery pull. MTN-SA is my service provider and they confirmed nothing is wrong on thier side
I am trying to get HSDPA (H bar on the bar signal) to work on my phone. I am currently working on edge right now. My carrier is AT&T.My brother has an Sony Ericsson Xperia mini pro (unbranded and unlocked) and has AT&T service and he was able to get HSDPA on his phone. I have no idea how he got it nor does he know himself.What app or APN settings do I need to configure in order to get HSDPA (4G)?> I've heard about the thunderbolt app but does that work with this phone? I also tried to copy my brothers APN settings but no luck.
My preferred network right now is set to GSM/ UMTS mode > GSM only Now I know that gsm is only capable of using edge only but what changes do I need to make? I cna only select these from my preferred network settings:
Has anyone had any experience using an i9000 in Canada on either of the three big networks (Bell, Rogers and Telus)? What I need to know is if it'll work well in HSDPA mode given that it only has one (1900) of the two required Canadian HSDPA bands (850 and 1900). What bothers me it that it looks like the one Bell is launching (the "Vibrant") has only two HSDPA bands instead of three, and I really need the European band as well (2100). Hence Bell's Vibrant won't work in HSDPA mode in Europe.
does anyone else experience slow tethering speeds with EDGE? when viewing the wifi tethering app, the speeds are showing up as being faster than they are on my computer. i don't get 3G coverage here, so that's not the issue, it's just the EDGE speeds compared to my HTC Tilt.is there any reason it would be slower? or is there something i need to do? i flashed cyanogen, etc. successfully, and tethering works, it's just really slow. i have full bars as well.
My IPhone 4S along with my wife's phone and our 4th gen iPods, have excellent DL speeds but horrible UL speeds on average .11 Kbps but on iPad I runs about 2.7 Mbps UL speed. I am using a linksys E3000 and have tried everything I have read here and on other threads on other sites as to different router settings. I have tried even what one thread suggested as to disabling auto clock no luck. The one thing I have not done is the static ip because I don't know how to do it.
I have the iphone 4s and recently found out that my network allows me to tether other products to the iphone by using the Personal Hotspot option, and the data is included in my mobile bundle. I am looking at purchasing the new iPad, and perhaps just going for the wifi version as I can then use my iphone personal hotspot when another wifi network is not available.
My network is Orange UK - who have recently announced that they are to have a full 4g network up and running by the end of the year. If my iphone picks up a 4g signal, will this automatically make the wifi hotpost created by the phone for the iPad quicker than if it was connected to my phone with a 3g signal?
I'm guessing that when usingthe Atrix as a hotspot it can't simultaneously use g and n speeds. I have a notebook that is 802.1 b/g but when another user has an n wireless laptop the hotspot crashes. Am i right about this? Should I buy a n adapter for my notebook?
I am trying to make some sense out of the slow modem speeds I am getting on the 3G network. Below is a comparison between the different methods tried and the results. The SIM was transferred into a Sierra wireless card, then the speeds took off. All tests were tried at the same time of day, to the same servers, with IP header compression turned off for the BB connection, all on the 3G networks. I even tried a Rogers SIM for comparison where I could. Changing "modem speeds" on the link to the BB made no difference. Normally I may just accept the differences, but I am looking to have about 25 users connect this way, to save on having a PCMCIA card or USB, as well as a separate data account. I have connected my notebook to the 9700 via Bluetooth and a USB 2.0 connection. My 9700 is connected to the Telus network, software version 5.0.0.442 (726)...
I have a BB 9700 Bold. I was testing the data transfer speed of it using an app called "NetWorkSpeed" from the app store. No matter how fast my network connection was, it seemed like the Bold was capped at an average maximum speed of around 250 kbps, both uploads or downloads. This is using either a 3G connection, or my home Wi-Fi. My home Wi-Fi should be able to do 6000 kbps downloads, and 800 kbps uploads; but the Bold never got anywhere near those. Now this is a speed test only done to the device, not to a tethered computer or anything like that. A tethered computer seems to be able to transfer faster through the Bold than the Bold can transfer to itself. Is this a real limitation with the Bold, or is something else going on here?
BTW, I tethered my PC to my Bold, using the Bold as its modem, and I was able to get 1.9 Mbps/330 kbps with it. Not as fast as my home Wi-Fi, but respectable. But much, much faster than the Blackberry can transfer to itself.
Could the retina display slowdown download speeds?
I'm, by no means an engineer, but in a certain sense with rendering higher pixelated images, this makes sense to me...No? Maybe the new OS will help with the rendering... I dunno.
To take full advantage of a 4G network must the device be designed for a 4G network.most new 3G smartphones indicate 4G compatible but does that mean they will perform at 4G speeds? If the samrtphone must be 4G does anyone know when 4G devices will be released?
I have tried all I could think of, clearing cache out, checking for conflicting devices, tried uninstalling some apps I think my be the culprit, rebooting the device, the router, and the Modem etc..... The problem still occurs, I'm not sure if this started since the 5.1 update or prior, all I can say I only noticed it a few days ago, when I decided to do a Speedtest, I know I have done Speedtest before, and never noticed this issue.
Once I'm connected to WiFi and my Bluetooth is turned on, my WiFi speeds are slow and bounce from 2Mb's to 5 Mb's, and when I say bounces the speeds go up and down during the process. As soon as I turn Bluetooth off the speeds are back above the 30 Mb's.
I have tried many of the recommendations around, but have yet to find a solution, Is it a LP issue ?? any other device I have connected I have no issues, I even have a back up Huawei, on LP, and have no issues when BT is turned on.
Heck, even my wife's 1st Gen Moto X has no issues. Since I only realized this recently, today when I get to work I will try it when I get to work and see if it does the same on WiFi there when BT is turned on.
What is your average data connection speeds? Yesterday I noticed that my speeds are severely lacking, especially when comparing to a HTC Inspire.When I called AT&T to inquire if my speeds were normal, the lady said no.After looking she said my SIM card number was wrong, again.This has become a frequent answer to most of the hiccups I've had since February.Side note, with this recurring SIM issue keep me from getting updated or will that be based on the IEMI?
http://www.facebook.com/ATT?v=app_10442206389 Wow, they claim they have measures set in place so that affected customers continue to have normal 3G uplink speeds. This is just pathetic. AT&T is such a failing miserable company. Yes, I will leave them on ETF when there is word of a Verizon iPhone.When was sub 100kbps "NORMAL" for any 3G upload speeds?
I was experiencing slowdowns on applicationss accessing the SD card for storage and caching. Among them are browsers like Dolphin, applications like Twidroyd, and news applications like Huffington Post. It helped with some of the applications by setting their storage options to internal memory, but the best solution so far, without rooting your phone and adding some MODACO mod, is to go to Settings, go to Managing Applications, go to Running Services, look for something that mentions DRM, then kill it.
Killing this does not harm the system, as I tested this already, and it speeds up access to applications that cache on the internal SD card. Of course, another way is to disable all SD access, and everything flies. But I find killing DRM services works well. DRM services is not part of the standard Android set, since I don't find this on the HTC phones, so killing it won't harm anything. Killing off Samsung's own slow ware such as Daily Briefings and the social Feeds widget may also help speed up the UI further, but on the other hand, these widgets can also be useful for some people.
I was sold a phone I was told that could go as fast as an iPhone on the regular network and even faster when I was in a 4G market.I have measured my speeds with an app and the first week they were fine. I still have the 4mbps down and 200+ kbps up logs.So I stopped worrying about it.After my 30 day return period ended and before. 57 my speeds dropped to the 1mbps down, .9kbps up range.I've complained and been told that a fix is on the way but come on... Two month is long enough to fix your screw ups.Give me my money so I can get a phone that will really connect to the network. And don't blame the network.
Having difficulty with voice control when driving at highway speeds? I drive a 2007 VW GLI and once I'm over 50 MPH I can't get the voice control to function -- even is I scream, yell or talk loudly at it.
Basically, I listen to music on my S2 while riding my motorbike, and yesterday I noticed that at higher speeds the music gets slower and even "blurry", sounded similar to the old (showing my age now) tape disks when the tape was dirty or stuck or lose. I keep my S2 in my right side pocket inside my jacket, and noticed when while this problem appears I press lightly against the phone it returns to normal again. Sometimes it stays normal for a little while, sometimes it reverts back to this 'broken' sound as soon as I stop pressing it lightly.Later I shut the phone down and powered it back up, hoping that may sort it out, but the problem still persists. It appears it's not every time it happens. Earlier this morning at higher speeds nothing happened, later on it returned however.
Before this my X10 does not have problem connecting the internet through wifi but recently i cannot access trough the internet eventhough my phone is connected through wifi.
need to know 3ginternet settings for tata docomo in india "After changed my plan from 2g to 3g My internet is not working in ma Xperia Ray (ICS update. what i need to change in APN or internet settings to have internet in my mobile.
I had a software update come through recently which told me I needed to go to the Sony Ericsson website to update it.. I tried to do this and it appears I can only update it using a PC as its not compatiable with a Mac computer (which I have).I have tried running the software update on the phone and as it can't connect to the internet it wint update anything.. so Im stuck in a circle now.
i want to go to internet in my laptop through my phone internet when they are connected throgh usb port. any one knows how can that be possible. i had done this with my another phone sony ericsson k800 with selecting phone mode when i connect phone and laptop together but my xperia doesn't have this option. My phone is xperia x10i.
