[Q] Anyone removed Sprint's proxy? - HTC EVO 3D

I removed the proxy on my evo a while ago mainly because it broke the streaming music. I also noticed a pretty nice speed increase on top of it fixing my streaming issue.
Streaming works just fine on the 3D and 3G speeds are so so not as good as my evo with proxy removed. This could just be the radio or dumb luck. Has anyone tried removing the proxy to see if it has increased speeds any? I'm thinking about trying it but figure I would ask if anyone has given it a whirl yet.
Update:
I decided to just give it a try, called sprint, got a super cool guy gave me the MSL no ?'s asked. Was on the phone no more than a min with him, I am gonna make sure to answer the survey questions for him. I love getting cool people. Anyway just removed the proxy and ran some speed tests, didn't really make much of a difference.
I'm getting between 400-800 down & 500 up average. Like I said similar results with & without the proxy at least for me. I'm just gonna leave it removed, I can't imagine having the proxy will ever help speeds in the future. It is the middle of the day so average speeds tend to be a little slower. I have pulled 1,500+ down on my evo in the same test area at times but that wasn't an average.
If anyone else wants to try I would be curious to see if it makes any difference or not since different areas can perform very differently.

Yes, confirmed faster. There's a thread about this in the development thread.
can HTC install a trackball on this thing?

oh ok. Didn't seem to have nearly the effect as it did on the evo but like I said I left it out. Plus I only did a few tests so I'm sure it will be better in the long run. A trackball would be kinda cool actually, I'm not sure where they would put it though.

Can someone post the original settings?

Originals. Sorry not sure why drocap gave me crappy pics.

Never seemed to do much for me, I have my proxy settings back on.

didnt really do anything for me either.

So the APP Network, anyone else notice it is terrible?

So after rooting and messing around with different roms and such, I installed an app called network that has been mentioned on here, to see about switching to 3G easily while at work.
Well I started noticing that the phone couldn't keep a 4G signal at all anymore, but didn't put 2 and 2 together because of some of the other stuff I had done, mainly flashing through 3 different roms in 45 mins.
Well I unrooted my phone, and got it exchanged today because of some terrible back light bleeding, that thankfully my new phone doesn't have, and rerooted the phone, restored all my apps on Mik Rom, and BAM, 4G goes screwy out of nowhere. So I looked through everything and the only networking type app I had was Network. I uninstalled it, and now instead of 998 ping and .5 d/l speeds I am averaging somewhere near 14 down and 71 ping.
Only change was that app. Anyone else have this issue after installing that app? Or if you are having 4G issues, and have this app, UNINSTALL IT!
just thought I'd throw it out there, considering it was making me really mad.
Just tested it myself and it's all good here.

Did you make changes in the network app?
The app is designed to DISABLE 4g. So if you made changes then yeah you would lose 4g.
Im sure this isnt the case, but wanted to mention it just in case.
I use mine to disable 4g since im not in a 4g Area but it works fine this way. But then again my 4g cant go screwy because it doesn't exist.

Hmmm... I notice your speedtest app actually showing an accurate upload (compared to the double digits people used to post. Is this an updated version? Speedtest had acknowledged inaccurate reporting on the TB.

[Q] Optimus T - Speedtest reveals limited upload (300Kbit)

Has anyone else noticed slow 3G upload speeds on this device or is it just me?
I went by the TMO store and tested a couple of devices there including the Optimus T and Motorola Defy and the Optimus got similar results to my phone. However the Defy tripled the upload speeds.

You know ... I never really understand , but why exactly do you need high upload speeds on a phone? Download , even a toddler understand , but upload? It's not like you're gonna sit while in 3G with torrents active to seed .
And as far as uploading a bunch of small videos and pictures to facebook , it's more than respectable a speed of over 100k

I don't see how that's relevant, but it becomes important when I'm tethering the device to my laptop or any other devices.
The point if the post is that HSUPA is not enabled for my device and I'm trying to determine if that is common across all of the Optimus T devices out there or if it's the small sampling that I have had access to.
The MyTouch3G that this device replaced was able to do 1.2Mbit uploads in the same locations that I'm hitting a 300kbit wall. This device is loads better than the MT3G in all but this one aspect.
lgoptimus t/one/p500 does not support HSUPA. thts the probable reason why u get low upload speeds.the device only supports HSDPA at7.2Mbps

Sprint Service Store broke my 3VO, incredibly slow 3G

Hey guys,
So the way this story starts out is my digitizer broke. The screen stopped responding one day and so I was like eh, I'll bring it in to get it replaced. I have the total protection plan and so it was no big deal. The guy took the screen out and put the new one in right in front of me.
As he was replacing the screen I said something about the mms messaging not working properly. I just couldn't get MMS messages anymore and when I sent them it would show them as sent but the person on the other end wouldn't get it. So he reset the profile I believe and changed maybe some other stuff server side(?). since then the phone has had TERRIBLE data speed. I mean next to useless.

I wasn't sure at first what the deal was. I reinstalled a different rom, flashed a new radio to see if that did it and it did nothing. I went back to the store to tell them they borked it, but the service guys were already gone for the night so I have to wait for tomorrow. My experience with these guys was bad before this but now it's even worse so I want to fix it myself if I can. Any guesses?
tl;dr Fix remarkably slow 3G. What can I do.
Nope, it wasnt the store, its just sprint. Those speeds seem just about right for sprint 3g.

I wish that were the truth. The first two were using wifi to make sure it worked. The rest are on 3G. In my area sprint usually flies and I tested the speed next to a few people that have sprint as well and they've been way, way higher. In some areas in my region I can get 800kbs down. No where near as slow as this.

J/k, but from what I've read a LONG time ago, it'll be pretty much the same.
One developer claimed it'll be impossible. But who knows.

do Verizion phones have ASOP and LTE? I'm too lazy too look, but I'm gonna guess that by now they do

I was under the impression the the Thunderbolt had LTE in AOSP.....maybe not, who knows.
Also, It should help that the GNex is LTE. Given those maybe proprietary blobs (I really don't know how open Nexus code is) if its not, why wouldn't it be in relatively quickly? Yeah it's a different radio, but the interface should be similar across most of Sprints LTE devices.
EDIT: Yes, it seems the Thunderbolt does have LTE working in CM7
Edit 2: VZW's LTE has a removable SIM card for LTE Activation, I assume ours is very similar, with possibly embedded or spoofed SIM. This probably makes it at least easier to get to work because the device doesn't have to handle the authentication the the network, the network handles it.

MIUI on the S4

Is there a dev working on porting MIUI to the S4? Is there any reason why it couldn't/shouldn't be ported? I really liked it on my Rezound and I'd love to give it a shot on my S4 (maybe with some of the TW features incorporated).
Thanks!

As of today, I got it to stop defaulting to NV and instead default to RUIM like it should. I got the APNs to default correctly. I got the roaming indicator in the banner to read the correct networks. I just have 4 test builds to flash yet and hopefully it will be good to go. Assuming it plays nice.
No ETAs, No PMs about it, No "hey Dubbsy...please"
The thing I've noticed with MIUI people in general is when I post something in an MIUI post as a response, my other ROM threads are immediately swarmed on by a bunch of MIUI leg humpers asking if it's done yet. As far as I'm concerned those people inside of my other threads will always be told I'm not working on it.

Take your time, someone working on it very little is better than someone not working on it at all.
