Anyone else experiencing slow 4g when browsing? Speed test shows normal speeds, but websites are back to taking forever to load again.
yup, i have also been experiencing this, but not only on 4g but 3g as well. it takes forever to load, and my weather widget wont even update correctly with my location or current temperature i hope these issues will be fixed soon.
Yah its just off and on was working great all week again till this afternoon. have to be on 3g for navigation to work. sucks......
edit: I'm in irvine so i guess its at least in california.

Well for a week now my internet connection has been bad. Youtube don't work, can't download any files but i can surf the web just fine. Has At&t put a block on downloading or whatever ?
I would suggestcompleting your user profile to that other members have an idea of where you are located (or give that info in the post).
I'm in Northern Illinois and don't have any issues.
I'm in Utah and haven't had any noticeable problems. I'm trying to replicate your problem to no avail....

where are you located, i'm outside st. louis and i don't have any bad problems, once in a blue moon my 3g won't connect, some error about the remote party ended the connection, but that takes a quick reboot on my PIE and it's good
I'm in the Dallas Texas area and have had intermittent internet issues ever since the Tornadoes went through last week.
No noticable problems here in Memphis. Once in a while, a page not found comes up in Opera, but a reload usually gets it the next time. I should also add that downloading works fine for me.
Cincinnati Ohio, is having edge problems due to 3g upgrades in outlying areas around Cincinnati, When 3g upgrades are being done it effects the edge network. The 3g upgrade takes approx a week, and I a as regional technician for AT&T am always fighting this issue so be calm. DAMMIT you made me sound like a HTC spokesperson....."we are currently working on the issue" HA AH AH
Detroit,
and yes, issues for a few days, they were upgrading Edge to 3G around me though, (about time!! woohoo!!) and I had funky issues for the last few days, but normal now.

I'm located in Orlando,fl. The main problem is when I try to watch a youtube video using TCMCP or downloading a file, it drops the connection. Basically downloading and buffing problems.

download kaiser tweak and set your internet to enable more connections, that usually works with the buffering issues

Will give it a try and report back.
All good here
No issues here in Detroit MI
I've had issues for at least a week now. I'm also in Dallas, TX. No rhyme or reason or way that always works to fix it either. Sometimes i can go to Comm Manager, turn off date connection, then open IE and it works. Then sometimes that doesn't work at all. It's getting extremely frustrating! Emails won't download, RSS hub can't connect, no IE, no Google Maps, ugh! hope they fix it soon. what data plan are you on btw?
I have had issues in Milwaukee the last couple days in the evening where it would show a data connection but would not send or receive data for hours. reboots didnt fix it during those times either
Miami, Florida
All good here, no dropped connections whatsoever using Edge and 3G.
Guess you can add me to the list. Live in Irving, but work in Dallas. Same issues and same time-frame. Also, I am on PDA Max.
Still having the same problem, At&t said there's no issues in my area. Started on Monday, maybe updating there network or something. Hate paying for something that's not working right.

I'm having problems too. GPRS issues mainly. I'm on MediaNET using wap.cingular.
Well my billing period just started, now everything is working find. Maybe I used too much data? Do At&t have a cap on unlimited?
no they dont have a cap, but you get charged after 5gb of data.
I couldn't send MMS all saturday, i'm in central texas, so i called customer support and turned out they were updating the servers or something like that and people in texas were experiencing data issues, but everythings working now.
Has anyone else had trouble with loading web pages occassionally on T-Mobile's data connection?
Every once in awhile, web pages simply won't load, and I get the "This Page Cannot Be Displayed" error. It seems like I have to close all my tabs and then open a page to get it working again. This "glitch" or whatever it is, doesn't happen on WiFi, but has happened numerous times on the data connection.
Is this happening to anyone else??? It's like T-Mobile is trying to throttle the connection or something... I haven't used THAT much data

I have noticed this too, but when I look I usually have dropped to Edge from 3G. I think it has more to do with the 3G signal than the device itself. Possibly issues with your location the construction of the building you are in overhead fluorescent light, all of those might factor into the dropping signal. Just a theory.
I was pulling some CRAZY download speeds on mobile speed test website.
I was actually getting 25 Mb down consistently... With a 7 Mb sample size and about 5 different tests on 3G! The phone was blazing fast at the time too.
When I got home on wifi my speeds were back to normal - around 9 Mb.
I wonder if they were doing some network upgrades in Princeton NJ today?
Pretty crazy, and while it may have been the speed test was whacky, I really don't think it could've have been wrong on that many separate tests.
Anyway, that's my input. I think data has been good.

Yea, speed is no issue. I get 9 or 10 Mbps download speeds regularly. The problem is as I described, once in a while pages simply refuse to load, and I basically have to restart the browser. You have never experienced that? Thanks to the other user for your feedback, that might be true about it switching from 3G to Edge, I'll try to pay attention to that the next time it happens.
yeah, i got the issue you mentioned earlier this afternoon. hitting the refresh button doesn't seem to help either.
On several occasions, I've struggled to get a decent data connection, despite there being an apparent signal. Turning the data off and back on again in settings->mobile network has fixed it, but it is frustrating.

Yep. well it's good to know that others are experiencing it. I don't believe it is a problem with T-Mobile's network, since my old WinMo phone worked just fine. I wonder if people on ATT have this issue, cause I would say it is something that needs to be fixed in Windows Phone in general. I'll post the question in their Samsung Focus forums.
I usually do not have any problems with the data on my device.
But one thing I have noticed that is happening frequently on my phone was... It gets stuck in 'G' (which I think is GPRS, worst than Edge). After a bit of analysis, I have realized, that when I get into and out of a tunnel (I take a subway to work), at times, my device does not get the 3G and stuck in G.
But once I reboot the phone, I am back to full signal.
Again, this DOES NOT always happen. Only once in a while.
On the whole I am actually VERY HAPPY with the data speeds. I was actually amazed to see how Netflix app was streaming movies seamlessly on my device with out any hiccups even while passing through areas where the coverage fluctuates from 3G to Edge and back.

hi all, I have the following problem: buy a t-mobile hd7 released, I need to manually configure the 3G connection and I have that option. I live in Argentina and so far with my previous phones had no problems (hd2 htc, htc desire, xperia x10) thanks
I have noticed this issue too and I don't think it's t-mobile but on a positive note the web pages load up very fast.
Guys,
I'm using version 9.4 of Android Revolution ROM on T-Mobile and I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same annoying issues as I am.
Currently the network speeds on HSPA+ are pretty good on the phone, I get about 8MBPS down, 2 MBPS up. Not great but not bad by any means!
When I first got the phone it ran great, YouTube, Netflix, Spotify, even just normal downloads came through quickly and smoothly
Now it's horrible. SpeedTest still shows me getting the same speed however everything seems so choppy. Pages will partially load, wait for a long while, and continue to load making the process take forever.
YouTube videos will load partially causing the video to buffer for minutes before continuing again. I can't complete a download because they fail a few seconds/minutes later.
This is even more pronounced when tethering to my laptop using WiFi Tether 3.3-pre2. I can hardly load facebook anymore even though my 4G signal is at the max. It's becoming annoying because I don't have home internet so I kind of rely on this and it was so nice for a while and now it's just awful
Hello!
I've been facing some problems with my LTE connection using TIM in Brazil. My 4G LTE speeds are great (about 50/50mbps) and the connection is pretty stable with about 40ms ping. I even use it to play online games in my computer, as it's faster than my home network. But recently after getting random disconnects when playing, I started to take notes of the time the connection was lost, and I found out that it disconnects every 30 min (the 4g icon also disappears and appears back in something about 3s). It didn't use to happen 1 or 2 months ago.
Wanted to know if that's a carrier-sided problem or it's my moto x, and if it's the second option, I also would like to know if there's something to bypass this half an hour limit (I believe it's some connection timeout).
Hope you guys can help me out!

My guess is carrier-side issue. Nothing you can do about it unless they do something on their end. They probably implemented a tcp or udp timeout of 1800 seconds (30 min).
Call and complain...
The problem I am having a similar problem on Verizon. I have to tap the airplane mode to get 4g back. It drains my battery searching for signal.

Sometimes I face this too... Mostly when I get home and it gets stuck in EDGE or HSDPA (I get a poor signal here because the tower is 7 floors above my apartment) and I can't get LTE back... I need to select GSM only or WDCMA only, wait for it to connect to the data network itself and then switch back to LTE. That's weird.
My cellphone wasn't doing this kind of thing before (timeout). I remember playing an entire match of League of Legends w/o further problems. Gonna try calling my carrier this week and see what's going on.
I just wanted to see if this is just me or not before I call tmob about it. I have no problem being on 4g and one less then max on the signal but when I request anything even just google.com it sits there till it times out and watching the data movement I see it try to send the request but nothing. If I do it ten or twenty times it may work for one page.
I have the same issue but I'm using the t-mobile note 4 on cricket. ?
I have been experiencing this issue for a few months now with little resolution. I have contacted Tmo and went through the entire ticket process without change. I notice it the most when I am unable to load emails in-app. Usually, when this is happens, I turn on wifi and immediately receive emails and notifications that were waiting to be delivered.
It appears the connection is going dead, and it requires a request to connect(Data off, Data on) to reconnect. Best part(or worst) is I can see the top of the T-mobile(they confirmed it) tower from my front yard.
I have similar issue but pertaining to wifi and 4G LTE my download speeds have not reached greater than 5mbs but my upload speeds go to 6mbs on my wifi tried restarting going in and out of airplane mode searching for new network connection and still nothing faster than 5mbs
Any thoughts?

So far I found installing a new rom onto the phone helped a lot. But still not perfect or very fast, even got my note 3 back out and it runs faster. I've replyed to a message from samsung so we can wait and see what happens but what really gets me is that if I use speedtest, it works at 10mbps no problem. Open chrome and goto google and it just sits and sits and sits annnnd times out.
