[Q] 00001 prl cannot run speed test [SOLVED] - HTC EVO 3D

I've got the 00001 prl loaded via epst and everything seems to work fine, except speed test keeps giving me network communication issues and cannot find a close server. Any ideas?
--edit-- I got it now. I figured I'd try to reload it one more time and for some reason it works now. 300 down and 600-800 up just shot up to 1500 down and 750-850 up! This is mostly for the office where my coverage is total crap. Work should be fun now!

Untill you get your bill LOL

Kool but just so you know that prl is for Verizon. It may not look like your roaming but you are and that unlimited roaming from sprint does have a cap. You may get a huge bill or even get terminated from sprint. Little FYI.

I didn't think sprint charged for roaming. I've only heard of people getting warning letters telling them that they are excessively roaming, then eventually being canceled if they.don't slow it down.

yeah, I'm only using it at work, and I just gotta make sure I limit myself to 25mb of usage each day and I'll stay under 300/month

Wow 3g is slow!

This is ridiculous. It's taking like 2 mins to load Google?
I've already done the proxy removal and I'm only getting like 100 kbps. What's going on here??

That's about right for Sprint 3G. It's within the 3G range for Sprint, anyway.
After removing the proxies I went from like 500kbps to 1.3mbps in my house...1-2 bars...sometimes 3....
Today I was in an area that was previously almost a deadzone, no bars but no roaming.....I got 1.5mbps-2.1mbps!??? It was phenomenal. The 4G in that area only netted my like 7mbps, even though 4g in my area (which I cannot get in my house) I've gotten up to 18mbps before.
Call sprint, report deadzones. If nobody tells them they won't do anything.

Just did a speed test and got 11 kbps. Pretty sure NYC isn't in the boonies.
Live in Chicago burbs, as I type this, roaming alert came on
On my.EVO 4G don't think I ever saw the roam alert. On this 3VO it roams few times a day. That NEVER used to happen.
3G service has hit the ****ter lately.

3G service when I had my Lotus and Moment were actually impressive for a mobile device...I was surprised.
3G Service the day I got my Evo4G was VERY impressive....and it just declined steadily from there. For a while I thought it was me screwing with the phone too much....but 2 and 2, etc....
The 3G speeds I get on my Evo3D are right in line with the Evo4G and the steady decline in service in my area (probably proportionate to some of the (now) 500,000 android activiations every effing day)....but the radio is like 1-1.5 bars lower than my Evo would average....which sucks. Performance isn't affected unless it's a fringe situation, like the bathroom at work...which sucks, I like to read CNN when I poop, but I digress.
I expect radio updates will help a lot, but, I ain't touchin' any of that until we have some action out of HTC or failing that one of our brilliant devs does what they are bound to do anyway...
...I've gotta admit, I've been F5ing the living fnck out of the two root threads in development and they are fascinating and at times exciting....I recommend it, it's better than the drunken 6-year-old mob mentality that has tended to coalesce in General lately--I haven't even bothered with Q&A....
Man I never thought I'd see the day where I'd salivate over 322 kbps.
If only Verizon would release better phones...

So flash a verizon PRL and watch your usage....once you hit 300mb put back the sprint PRL...it's like you are throttling yourself, lol.
Seriously, if Verizon is that much better where you are do it....where I am Verizon has a stronger signal but they also have MANY MANY MANY times more customers than Sprint, so, their network is way oversold and over utilized....Sprint not so much....so Sprint has weaker signals and faster speeds on average.
In terms of voice, Sprint is the clear winner where I am but for some reason Data is just the worst.
How would I go about flashing a Verizon PRL? I have the PRL file but I'm unsure of how to actually flash it.
Did you try calling Sprint and getting them to reprovision your phone?

My mistake for saying 'flashing', force of habit...
First thing you have to do is get your MSL, you can either call Sprint and ask for it or use the popular method (with CDMA workshop) that's currently around the top of the Dev section... I usually just called for it, but, for geekliness I had to rip it out myself and it was an effin' snap to do, so, just follow those directions to get it...
....then there is a thread floating around here (and/or the Evo4g forum) with a number of Verizon and Verizon/Altell hybrid PRL's.....download a couple...31337 is good I hear
then you punch in some ## codes, load the PRL file, reboot and ***POOF***, you are on verizon--still consuming roaming data and voice--but you aren't limited to 1x....
EDIT: Don't forget to hit "menu:commit changes" to reboot--or you won't make any changes.

Hmm thanks. I already have the MSL, but I don't see anything in the ##3282# to load in a new PRL. Is that the right code?
EDIT:
OK whoa whoa! I got a nice 300 kbps just now. I changed a setting in that menu regarding EVDO. Changed it from CDMA only to Automatic. Lemme revert and see what happens.

I used to live in the Des Moines area of Iowa and the 3G was awesome...moved to Chicago and noticed its about dial up...don't know how you guys got/get by on just 3G. The EVO never went off 4G...
What's really sad is I could do speed tests on 3G in IA that are only slightly slower than my 4G tests here.

My 3vo is getting max 126 download and even worse upload. Four people in my family have EVO 4g, they are consistently getting close to 1 mbs and similar uploads. Tried the proxy fix and everything. My speeds are typically better where I live, but are horrible this holiday weekend. Could it be the towers here don't like the 3vo, or should I exchange the phone?

Try 2 things before you take it to Sprint:
First, update your PRL and Profile (Under Menu-Options-System Updates) and then hard reset the phone. (Turn it off, pull battery, turn it back on) then test your speeds
If that doesn't work:
Try the MSL fix Here
Make sure to write down your defaults, as I hear Sprint doesn't like it when you mess with that stuff, and set it back if it doesn't help.
If all else fails, go to Sprint, whine or something. Maybe they'll give you an AirRave. I'm just not a fan of having other people fix my problems.
I get same DL as you, upload speed is like 18. Only getting 2-3 bars most of the time even though I pulled up the sprint map and there are supposedly towers all over the place here.

The over the air provisioning is not authenticating your 3g (only 1x speeds)
The fastest and easiest fix is to call sprint tech support and have then perform a HLR RELOAD or refresh on your data profile.
From there, you will go to settings then update profile from your evo
Note: if the hrl reload doesn't work, have tech support "REPROVOSION YOUR DATA PROFILE" (exact words)
Trust me. This works
What happened was when you dis the hands free activation, 3g was not authenticated correctly.

I has the same problem all last week, it turns out (God, knows why) but my EVDO setting was CDMA and it had to be set to Automatic - Once I changed this, I was getting much better speeds.
called sprint. they did something and asked me to reset the phone after we hung up. same speeds afterward, 98 down, 70ish up. said they can't do anything else because i am calling from the phone i need service on. i don't have another phone to call from right now so i'll have to call back later and request the reloads mentioned above.
after resetting my phone, i did prl update, profile update and the proxy fix. still getting same speed results.

what speeds are we suppose to be seeing. I'm using speed test.net and my test numbers always change. on 3g i can test it 1 minute apart and get 1.16 Mbps down and then .72 Mbps down......should they be better?

Those are 3g speeds so sounds like authentication for you isn't an issue. Probably just the network where you are.
i would be satisfied with speeds in that range, even if they were sporadic. what i'm getting is .2 mbps down .03 mbps up (or less) consistently. just got .03 down, .11 down and .18 down, on my last three tests.
I am constantly getting 300-400kbps down and 50-150kbps up.
Tried ##786# and performed a data profile reset. Fixed it got great speeds now.

So far, so good. I am now able to stream music where I was roaming just an hour ago. They fixed something with this unless I'm having a very lucky moment. This is the first time I have been able to access 3G from my desk since I got the 3D. Fingers crossed
Oh Joy...
Instead of horribly slow 3g speeds, all I get now is "Network Communication Error".
Me thinks that was the last straw.

think mine may have too. haven't done any serious tests though.
Considering the PRL is your carriers "Preferred ROAMING List", unless you're actually roaming, this shouldn't have any affect on speeds at all.
I'm in a fringe area and roam pretty regularly. I tried it and it seemed worse until I did "update profile" and did a power off, battery pull, and reboot. Now it seems like it might be improved a little. Someone should do a compare and see how 21079 differs from 21080. I don't think 21079 offered 3G roaming. Does 21080?

Broke my 3g speed record 1.32 dl
Just updated my PRL and my 3G speeds have decreased from an average of 1Mbps down and .65Mbps up to .71Mbps down and .48Mbps. Weird thing is that on the tests before the update, I had 3 bars but on the tests after the update, I had 5-6 bars.
My speed increased quite a bit, this morning I was getting .49Mbps and after the PRL updated I am getting average of 1.22Mbps down, up is atill average of .50Mbps.

I believe this is correct.
I think what everyone else is seeing is known as the placebo effect.....
Def not a placebo effect..I've never achieved speeds this high..not even close..never saw anything higher than .7 mbs and that was if i had a good test ..usually was at .20 mbs ..and I've had speed increases in the past with prl changes so I dunno..and its the first thing a sprint store will do.if you complain about slow speeds

My parents use sprint, i use Verizon..
and Ive also noticed their speeds to be pathetically slow.
nice job sprint! lol
Funny thing is, the only time I EVER have issues with my 3G speeds are
1) At home when I can always use Wi-Fi
2) At school when I don't need 3G for much anyway
If the service in your area isn't enough for you, then you should switch to another carrier. I wish I could switch to Verizon, but they're more expensive and don't have unlimited data.
Here are my speeds, testing around in various places (school, my house, my girlfriend's house, etc.)

So the RTSP and HTTP changing them to 0 and 0.0.0.0 gave you worse speeds?
Sprint blows, i have the same issues in michigan with full bars. They are over congested in my area and don't seem to be in any rush to expand thier 3g network(or introduce 4g). At my other house i get low to average speeds though, also with full bars. IMO, you should never see speeds lower than 800 kbps with 3g coverage. Unfortunately, at my house on the east side of Michigan, the data is frequently between 400-800 kbps, though that is still much higher than the speeds i get when im at my apartment on the west side of Michigan.
keep in mind that the competition is almost always pulling 1500-2500 kbps in areas like mine.

Here's mine
Swyped from mah 3vo!
sprint is the only company where I can get the best service at my place. It all depends on locations you can have them but like a router for 4g 3g service in your house.
LOL at least you get "decent" speeds. On my old TP2 I was getting 600 kb now with the 3D I can't get past 32 kb on 3g. If it wasn't for Wimax near me I would be with big red.....sero plan helps. Seems like I got a fancy paper weight when I'm not in a WiMAX area...... Unlimited data so slow you can't use it.

Anyway to stay 4G in a 4G LTE area?... Let me explain why...

Ok. So I have always just had 4G in my area until recently. I have the APN info to run unthrottled. I have an unlimited data plan and I use my phone for tethering my computer and my xboxs at home. Since it is now LTE now my UNTHROTTLED, APN switches on and off randomly and eventually knocks me back to the regular ATT PTA APN. I want to find a way to lock my phone to 4G only so I can stay on the unthrottled APN so I can at least have 2mbps instead of being throttled down to 500kbps a quarter of the way through the month. Which makes it practically impossible to play xbox games online or stream a movie, Download anything is a headache now. The worst part about it is even the LTE maxes out at 5mbps where I live anyways so it's not like I'm getting 21+ like I do in other LTE areas. Is there anyway around this or should I invest in an Android 4G only phone and just use it while at home? Thanks for any help that someone could give me.
Excessive data use always gets throttled. No way around it. I'm not saying "excessive use", at&t is.
They easily track usage by your sim card and IEMI, so APN settings don't matter.
Actually.....
Actually. With the APN I had it never got throttled. I was doing 46gigs+ a month. Never ever got throttled until it knocked me up to LTE and made my phone skip the un throttled APN.

46GBs? It's about time you did get throttled. 4G and LTE APN's should both be throttled APNs. Try the 3G APN.
I agree, save some bandwidth for the rest of us. I don't know how you haven't had your account closed down yet, or why you weren't throttled using a particular APN for so long. Must have just been network goofiness, because like rangercaptain said, that's not how AT&T tracks you for throttling anyway.
Edit: Moving to a 3G APN shouldn't matter either. Nor would being on a 2G or 3G-only tower. No matter what I'm connected to, I'm still limited to 5GB/month before getting throttled, because that's where grandfathered LTE plans are set. Doesn't matter if I'm actually using LTE or not, it's per-plan.
46+ Gb? Really???? Unbelievable! No, really. Unbelievable. You must mean 4.6 Gb because you'd be turned off, or at least you'd be getting communications from your carrier. I think either you are telling stories or you don't really know what you are talking about.
Johnus is 100% correct for AT&T. You get 5 Gb unthrottled per unlimited plan. Doesn't matter if you consume that 5 Gb using LTE, 4G, 3G, or string and soup cans.
I'm serious. I was getting months of 46 and more gigs without being throttled using one specific APN. The weird thing is now that yesterday I cut my phone on and all my APNs were gone except the default. They don't mess with me because the last time they tried to take me off unlimited for tethering I caused a big scene and kept on getting my call transfered up to a higher and higher management denying the fact that I did it and threatened them with a lawsuit. I already have a FCC complaint set up against them for throttling since it was never notified of agreed to a change in my plan. I was using a 4G APN that had what looked like corporate **** on it because I to this day can't find the info I had that I put in to get away with it. Now that it's LTE now it cuts 4G to completely off to 4G not allowing me to stay online longer than 15mins before it shuts down. That's all erased somehow now. My tethering file is deleted and I use wifitether app to do my tethering and have not been caught while tethering since I did that over 6months ago and for 6months I have been using about 50g a month

It's far from over. I'm over 6gigs now and not throttled. Since using the tweakker APN. And I have been told if you file an FCC complaint they will let you run wide open once it gets filed with them. Usually take a month or two. They have so many lawsuits pending right now they can not deal with another.

..... And in my area, I assure you that my data usage is not effecting any of you. I live 30miles outside of Memphis TN. In the middle of nowhere. A year ago my phone only picked up in one spot in my entire house. The city is so small they banned any towers for going up because of the fear of radiation. I live around a bunch of ignorant rednecks that use Walmart prepaid phones and the only Internet they know of is Hughes Net and the local library.

Where can I find a full ATT APN list?

Really not sure I can take anything you say as serious. That said, if you get anywhere with you supposed FCC filing, you'd be the first. The issue has already been tested and AT&T is on firm ground.
This is how you can take me seriously. That shows my data usage.

Gonna post this months data usage with my Internet speed.. It never shows a tether is being used. It is unexplainable by looking at the phone info where the data is using. Which is also exactly what ATT gets, they have no clue where I'm using so much data.

My apologies. I gotta admit, the proof is in the pics. I know that ATT would normally go ballistic about this so I don't really understand why you're getting away with it. They really don't care what you use the data for. Normally, all they care about is how much data you've used in a month. You are getting away with murder, my man. Good for you!
It's because they have threatened me in the past. I threatened back and they backed off. But it was before I deleted the tether file and used wifi tether app. They busted me for tethering now they can't. Can't tell what I'm using it for. It's like they try to throttle me at certain times. Randomly now that I have LTE coming thru at my home. I was wondering how many others have figured this out. I guess it is just that I threatened to put a lawsuit on them.

Another speed test. Just to rub it in a bit. Try the route I did. Let me know if it works for you
By the way my Xbox GAMERTAG is junkheadINC for anyone interested in some multiplayer action.

Can you give some more info on what you did? I'll give it a go and see if i can pull the wool over their eyes, too.
Nice speedtest results. The upload is incredible.
