Hello all!
I have a question:
Since purchase of the i9000, no matter what custom rom (Cyanogenmod, Miui, stock gingerbread roms, simplicity, Darky rom, Galnet MIUI, etc...) the mobile internet speed rest slow. WiFi works fine though.
Tested with the Speedtest:
WiFi: average of download is around 200-350 kb/s with a ping of 35-80
Data: average of download is around 25 kb/s with a ping of 350-400
Anyone has this problem too? Or is it related to the phone's hardware?
I flashed multiple modems of the region Europe already, still no changes..
I did a test with a friend. Both at the same place, same provider
Me: Galaxy S I9000
He: HTC Desire
Speedtest result:
Me: 30 kb/s
He: 150 kb/s
so it is not my network, but more my mobile..
Please help me

Are you on 2g or 3g?
Sent from my LG-P350 using XDA premium
Both!
At least on top of the phone I see "E" and "3G"..
Signal strength is good too: around -50 or -60 dbm..
what do you have as download speed?
With E also my connection is slow. Only when it is in H (hdspa) the connection is good and fast. It is the provider of your contract that in your region gives you only a slower connection probably.

Did you try a different ROM with a different Modem?
Did u try selecting the 'only Wcdma' network option?

KB/s or kbps? IT is a big difference and what rom do u use?

I wrote kbps that is kilobits per second so 239 kbps is equal to 29.8 KBps kilobytes per seconds.

I thought maybe a type fault.
so it is slow too your phone?
*sigh*
Could also be a hardware defect. Have you tried the speed with WLAN?
hardware defect? How can i test this?
How can I do wlan test?
Go to market an download Traffic Monitor. Now you can check the downloadspeed over WLAN. Do it nearby your accesspoint and you can see, if the modem is ok. If the speed is good, it seems to be an software problem.

Wifi is working fine.. so i don't get it..
pfff frustrating galaxy s...
Ok so since you flashed different roms and it didn't work here's what you should do( at least i would do like that) do a "remove the recovery prior to flash" thing and flash your stock rom( from nandroid of any other way) then try to un- root. If all this goes well go to the place where you bought the phone and tell them your problem just skipp the "custom rom modem and root part" and when the dude that'sworking says "it will cost ..." you show him/ her the warranty and smile
Now that was the best scenario.The worst is that you fail to un-root or to remove recovery (or both ) then go take it somewhere for repair and hope that it will ne cheap.Hope this helped and that you get your phone back to normal soon.Good luck!

I manage to get 400kB/s (KiloBYTES as in 1000~kB = 1mB).
I'm using my i9000m, on 3G Rogers network.
Could your APN be messed? Your ROM modem?

i am using cog 4.1.1 and i am having problems with my data my sisters phone has a strong 3g signal and mu cap is only using egde.
i am new to flashing and all i want to flash a new modem
cog uses Baseband I897UCKB1, Kernel 2.6.32.9
waht is the fastest modem or raido whatever i can flash to using cw
i want to use hsupa or 3g what ever the fastest is battery life is not a problem
I9000 modems have faster data but if not paired with i9000 kernel bluetooth will likely not work correctly
CM7
You're looking for modems, and that is ENTIRELY dependent on where you are in the world.
Cog 4.1.1 would be using the official 2.2 ROM as a base, so I'm not sure if these modems would help out... As far as I know KB1 is the only working modem with that version of the ROM (I'm not 100% on this).
I would try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835272 for the moment, but like I say I'm unsure how updated that topic would be (the latest few posts will definitely have something about KB1 there)... I'll can go through some quick research for you to make sure, but I'm at work right now so I can't at the moment :/
A quick scan through the latest posts seems to say that JK4 and JPG and KP1 modems seem to work best for some users. (Again, not a 100% sure thing).
Hope this helps at least a teeny bit.
I used secret code in sgs tools and enabled 3g and hsupa and It is working fast now something around 1857kbs down and 367kbs up. At 4 bars

Speeds as fast as Wi-Fi ? What kind of internet connection is that ? For me , my internet is 15:1 mbps (download:upload) . The speed on my phone is no where near the speeds on wi-fi .
EDIT: I'm getting 3:1 Mbps on my phone through data . I'm on CM7 , Escapist's Kernel with JL3 CM7 modem .
In order to get the "fastest modem" , you have to test out all the modems given to you for your kernel . Some modems are better in other areas , so you just have to test . For the Captivate kernel , the latest modem (if I'm not correct) is KB1 . Try it out and see if it makes things any better . I liked the i9000 kernel / modem combo better because of HSUPA enabled and the features it gives . I got speeds as high as 4:3 Mbps .

You may have an issue either with the flash or something else is conflicting because I am running the same thing and have zero issues always have a strong signal, actually have a signal in places i didn't when I had the stock software- don't think it is the modem they use jk4 as a default modem most roms use the same
I would suggest you go over to the serendipity Q&A section and post this info. so the developers can help you work out your issues- response is pretty good
If there was a definite answer to which modem was fastest don't you think that it would be the standard for all roms? Just like which rom is the best is highly individual

I was wondering how to enable the 3g on my captivate. Im using Continuum v6.1, when I load my web browser it says 3g then turns off n says H. Is this a normal issue or should I flash back to a different rom. Sorry im fairly new to this and I didn't find anything related to my issue in the search
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
H stands for hspa. It is a faster form of 3g, it is capable of speeds twice as fast as normal 3g.
Oh really? That's great thanks man. Learn something new everyday.

Im needing help tweaking my network settings i guess in the system build prop. I get speeds in the range of 2mb up to 5mb which i think is great. But i have ping lag 195ms up to 400ms.
I already searched but could find anything. It wouldnt be a problem but when playing dragonplay poker and losing because of a timeout lag can be fustrating
Thanks in advance for any kind of help

I would consider a ping between 200-400 ms pretty normal on a 3G network.

Could you screen shot your Data Connection option screen?
maybe try a re-flash of the same rom....
give it another shot.
just a guess. good luck..
when you do get it fixed, please post your results. thanks
Ask the phone provider if the problem came from them first before you do anything.
If not, do a clean install using pc odin and format your internal sd also, to be sure.

APN type needs to have Internet included as well along with default,supl,mms.
Most carriers do not have their own 3G spectrum and in most cases are running of shared networks. If that is the case, you need ensure your "Roaming" is enabled under your data connections.

youre welcome,
on that note, delete apns, if you have root, restart and reregister manually on your home network, restart, it didnt work? Check if throught provider website you can send settings to phone. If that didnt work is unavailable contact provider to send or troubleshoot connection speeds
Note your neteork speed maybe dependant on frequencies unsupported on Note. That you can probably figure out with your provider to and with your notes specifications. I dont suspect this is the issue.

So my fellow Australians. I don't know if like myself you experience the following anoying behaviour when loading pages on 3G/HSPDA. (using non-stock carrier provided rom AND modem)
Note: using a T branded rom seems to make no difference for me.
1. Big data Pages load a bit on H+
2. Pauses at some point. Sometimes for more than 5 seconds.
3. Network drops to 3G briefly then kicks back to H. Then finally H+ and the page loads quickly all in one go.
4. Annoyingly on the most data heavy pages in pauses AGAIN! just before it finishes loading.
I learnt a bit about TCP buffers and Kernel parameters that control them and came with this init.d script which, for me has MASSIVELY! improved the loading times on the browser by smoothing out the memory buffer.
Tested on Samsung JB leaks but should work on all Samsung roms... or not work but certainly not break anything.

Hope it helps guys!

So what exactly does this script change?
Will it work on Telstra? And what exactly does it do?
No harm in trying on Telstra. Just delete the init.d script if it's not good.
The script tweaks some TCP settings in /proc which change the memory buffers for HSPDA and other properties I found a good online tutorial and trial and error did the rest... have a look at the script!

Hey mate nice work. I have noticed when I flashed Omega v24 JB Rom or any JB Rom I loose my APN,s and when the phone first starts up after a fresh Flash, a pop up apears on my screen for about half a second and from what I glimpsed it said it couldn't get something from my Telstra network (Guess it is the APN,s it cant get). Is this because my Telstra GS3 is GT-I9300T and the JB Roms are cut from GT-I9300 that are not released in Aus yet? When I put my APN's in manualy I get my 3G/GSM internet back but Accu Weather cant find my location and FC's tried another Clock weather widget that I use all the Sense 4.0 style and it can't find my location (Auto or Manually no difference). So I flashed back to Omega v13.1 ICS and all is fine.Do you think your mod might help? PS. I also flashed Android Revolution HD 9.0.0 and flashed his Super Wipe script for a clean install thought it might help but no difference still no APN's.
Cheers - I will give it a go. Currently using Red Bull Mobile Australia which uses Vodafone.
I wonder if this has anything to do with Fast Dormancy as it really does sound like what it was invented for and happening due to your description, If so you might be able to turn it off with the FastDormancy Toggle for i9300 app on Play.
I've never noticed these connection problems on Optus but then again they don't support it but I think Voda/Telstra might since Telstra supports HD Voice while the others don't

Similar idea but more subtle. Keeping data flowing more e evenly was the goal. Specifically to eliminate the long pause and then big chunk download after
