Roms, and HSDPA speed (dutch) - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

well, i was wondering, what is the downloadspeed you get on hsdpa on the tytn2?
today i tested on ftp server, and i get 15 - 17 kb/sec..
is that normal, or does it have to go a lot faster?
can it be, the rom i'm using is the bottleneck?
using dutch KPN networking, and nothrills dutty V3 Dutch rom WM6.1
what is the Best rom i can use for my Tytn2????
anyone??

it's always the weakest link which set the pace
it's a bad move to try and bench using a random ftp

http://www.dslreports.com/mspeed?jisok=1&more=1

thnx getting 22,8KB/sec ->182.40kbps
but whats the normal hsdpa speed???

with t-mobile NL i get about 100-120kb/s down and about 30kb/s up. subscription is 1.8m/384k so seems ok-ish.
also compare usb cable (rndis) versus bluetooth, i found usb cable a bit better in terms of latency. but i am on linux so YMMV

Got My New MDA Vario (TMO) - Now to Upgrade, Have Questions

My K-Jam / MDA Vario is two hours old but damn, she's fine ! I see about the speed thing but it's not that obtrusive. I understand the WM 5 thing about loading the programs from ROM into RAM to execute but I have questions later.Given the other integrated features I like, fine compromise. Now on to the topic at hand:
Bought this unit from importgsm.com for US$589.99 (sweet). It's T-Mobile MDA Vario from Germany so all manuals, CDs, etc are in German. Not too worry, lot's of English PDF manuals, start up docs on the web. Have done my first AS 4.1 sync, no problems. Installed a few programs so far, no problems.
Had to checked for EDGE in Austin, TX so set up an APN connection of internet3.voicestream.com and times connect speeds at 81.6Kbps (10KBps) using www.texan.com/speed.htm. This seems higher than my GPRS connect specs I had recorded on my XDA II at 45Kbps - 52Kbps.
Questions:
A Qtek ROM/Radio was loaded on this unit even though it's TMO. ImportGSM customer service says it's a better ROM at the moment for Wizard units that they stock. The i-mates are hard to come by he said.
1) How do I check that the speed slow down items, I've read about (virus scanner, etc) are installed and/or running? Then, naturally, how to eliminate them.
2) Here's my ROM/Radio specs for Qtek:
ROM: 1.1.7.5 dated 9/22/05
Radio: 1.1.10.0
Protocol: 4.0.13.16
ExtROM: 1.1.7.105
Given that, what's the XDA communities recommedation on upgrading ROM/Radio? Is this an "old" ROM/Radio"? Should I wait longer to upgrade? Should I go with i-mate's latest, do a Qtek upgrade, use TMO ... ??? Thoughts gentlemen?
I'm comfortable with EXE upgrades but not RAR upgrades but could, in a pinch, do it.

wizard rom 2.8.7.1 WWE test and WiFI

I've unpgraded to this newest ROM and ever since I cannot connect to my wireless network,did anyone experienced something similar?
I know it's a test version but...I coudl connect before with my dutch SPV m3000 ROM,setting the WEP key and so on...
I am using this rom for 2 weeks now and am very confident.
NO issues whatsoever!
GPRS, BT, WiFi: it all works
2.8 is VERY good
i can also confirm it: the new rom is very stable, and all GPRS+WIFI+BT+IR+ Audio are a significant improvement....probablt because i also overclocked my device at 264 MHz. After 10 days of frequent operations no problem and not a single reset; still skype is not what you would like from life (very bad quality calling echo123...)

WM6 wifi sucks?

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone experience bad wifi connections with WM6. I have highspeed at home and i connect it thur Wifi max..for my psp. thou, I have not been able to experience smooth internet surfing. It's slow and choppy, and I don't have any downloads or traffic going on? Does anyone experience this?
I also tried this tweaks and still no improvements.?
Does anyone out there have good experience with wifi on the wizard or it's just my setting? I want to figure that out? thank you for your time reading this post.
This is the original Reg Key on the Wizard "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\comm\TNETWLN1\Parms\"dot11Supp ortedRateMask" Dword (1). Leave this "as it is" and add the one that I added here and if its already in the reg then verify that its edited to the correct "Dword (4)" If the oder key is not there tahn it could be any othr problem but usualy I have this problem when I had both keys Dword 1 and "G" Dword 8 after I change that 8 to be a 4 my problem was resolved.
Please don"t change, edit or delete this one:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\comm\TNETWLN1\Parms\"dot11Supp ortedRateMask" Dword (1)"
For a stable Wifi on My 8125 I had to edit on the registry, I had to edit it as this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\comm\TNETWLN1\Parms\"dot11Suppo rtedRateMaskG" Dword (8) This one is not good on AKU3.3 or neither on WM6. But is not very stable with this Rom Faria's AKU 3.3 so you have to edit to:
This is the perfect reg key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\comm\TNETWLN1\Parms\"dot11Suppo rtedRateMaskG" Dword (4) After editing reset the device by turning off and on or by using the Shot down Key don't use stylus because could cause that the registry dosen't
gets saved.
hklm\comm\tnetwln1\parms\dot11supportedratemask
enable=8
disable=1
i got the orwells rom..and its perfect on wifi.. i geet an awesome signal..better thn wm5 ..and plus i can stream movies online !... like i was watching trailers and they were playing 150kkbps+..which is pretty awesome for a small device like that..streaming music at 100kbps +... id say just try out a clean rom and try out ...
Awesome!
Wow, your wifi must be really good to stream video online, what program are you using to stream video? I tried a few like handitv, but doesn't stream live.....and only work fast enough when I have my usb connected to my comp but not wifi?
Oh also I am using the clean WWE WM6 version. maybe it's my wifi max hmm, but I can play online with it on my psp thou I can't seem to get smooth wifi internet connection with my wizard ..even on my psp it's smooth internet.haha...
Well least I know wizard is capable of having smooth wifi on WM6, I'll keep reading post and researching then cause it's my setting problem then.
BTW what is your internet speed and what router you use? Also did you use any tweaks or modified the reg?
Try using a regular wifi router.
Would if I could.
I would have tried it on a wifi router if I had one, I didnt' choose to buy one cause I heard the connection isn't as fast as cable or ADSL. Only bought the wifi max for my psp.
But at least now I know WM6 wifi is capable of fast and smooth internet. Well at least one person replied he did.

WIFI works very well on my WM6, no speed problems, downloading like it should... using protected wifi network
does wifi max work on wm6.1?
I have an HTC Touch vx6900 upgraded to wm6.1 and I love it. My internet is lightning fast. Even while streaming live tv with orb and downloading torrents on my pc live tv is smooth, no buffering at all. I only like using wifi max for my psp when I am out of town so i can still play socom ftb2, at home I have a router. My problem is that I had wifi max running perfectly with my lame treo vx750. Now I can't seem to get it working with my HTC. I've tried reinstalling everything drivers and all. I'm at the point where my phone's internet is connected to my laptop with pdanet at 2.4mbps, and wifi max connected and set to an access point. Internet is still lighting fast on my laptop, but when i scan for a signal on my psp it will come up as wp_lan at 100% but the internet connection on my psp always fails. I've tried tinkering with the zydas settings and the PSP WIFI Max Media Manager settings but nothing seems to work. I must be forgetting something, does anyone have any suggestions? Has anyone gotten a setup like this to work? Like i said i had it working with my treo. I really wouldn't think my phone would be the problem, because an internet connection on my laptop has already been established. Just not on my psp. I've been trying to figure this out for days, I need help from someone smart lol

uk radio

ok, so this may be a lame question and probably depends on a lot of variables but can anyone suggest a good radio for use in the uk??
is there such a thing, i've tried lots and so far seem to like a few but i still can't get the bl**dy GPS to work properly
i get a loke in about 10 mins if lucky.
i've used poldo's rom and ngy's and pda ultimate, and for my purposes poldo's seems the quickest and most stable to me.
any help would be appreciated.

Using Radio in sig, lock about 2-3 mins, using mcguider "to which isn't the greatest sat nav prog"
yeah thanks for that. used that for a while, made my rom fast but gps lock was poor.
what do you think of the emo radio?
cheers mate
UK Radio version
I have dutty's 6.1 final with radio version 1.58.25.14. I am on T-Mobile and all is fine with my Kaiser. All this software was from the Kaiser software section on XDA.
Hope this helps

Haven't used emo as have used the radio mentioned with no issue on every ROM i flash and even 3 carriers.
Do you use quickgps and have you tryed running GPSTest as you will find fix faster, also will always take longer for fix off cold boot.
I used to live in Solihull area of Birmingham and use 1.71.09.01 radio with 3G switched on (HSDPA off) and I could leave it with data connected all day and sync my mail every 15 minutes and at the end of the day after a few short calls I would still have 40 - 50% left.
I have just moved to South Wales (valleys area) and the same setup down there my battery is on 0% by 4pm. So I have had to kill 3G and set mail to manually refresh to get through the day.
fixed it
gps test installed and a new radio 1.65.16.25
get a gps fix in about 10secs.
i come from south wales, lived near the vally's in bedwas. now live and work in greenwich london.
small world.
thanks for everyones input.

Glad you got this resolved but I used that Radio with the 'initial' UK HTC official WM 6.1 ROM update and it well and truely broke my GPS (compared to the WM 6.0 setup in my sig I'm back to using). I have no need to use gps test or any programs other that Tomtom Navigator 6.032 so I strongly suspect your results have more to do with GPS Test or the ROM, than that particular radio.

1.09 through 1.14 all work very well on China Mobile's Edge network.
If you're unhappy with performance, you'll have to remember, it's only edge, so you're not going to get much more than 200Kb/sec under most signal conditions.
If you want more you'll have to go to Unicom and get a 186 WCDMA sim card. Pricey and buggy network right now, but improving and in 6 months it'll really be worth mass consideration.

radio performance is so bad..
i'm with China Mobile too, and using 1.14 radio
i was using Dutty's before, and i'm now using miri's 6.5 v20 rom
i always have the problem with phone calls..
sometimes the other side cannot hear me but i can hear them, even when the reception bars are full, not to mention when the reception is bad..
it also occurs when i go indoor, i have to stick my head out of the window looking down 24F to finish the f****** phone call.......
