[Q] AT&T Rep showed me his captivate on 4G???

Ok, so the other day I visited an AT&T store, and while I was there I got talking with one of the reps there. We were talking about flashing different ROMS and such, when he showed me his phone. He was running a custom rom that he cooked up in the romkitchen. He then showed me his speedtest.net scores and they were off the charts! He was getting something like 9 Mbps down, and 30 Mbps upload speed! He tried to explain to me how he had done this, off the record of course, but I haven't been able to figure it out! If there is anyone out there who can help out an aspiring noob, I would really appreciate it!

its called HSPA (aka HSPUA and HSPDA for upload and download)

They probably also have a signal repeater or a microcell in the store too increase performance

yeah tricky a-holes... "see how good att reception is? ..... (in our store) "

Interesting, so I guess to simplify, captivate is still unable to access what AT&T calls "4G"? Also how would one know if they were accessing HSPA?

The captivate us capable of hspa it just needs to be flashed to a different modem.bin that supports it
The signal icon at the top will say H instead of 3g.
As for 4g that will never work.

How much experience do you have with at&t as a provider? Or are you just regurgitating what you have read. Every carrier has their issues but you seem to have some deep seeded hatred for at&t.
@op, the captivate will connect to hsdpa just fine but the speeds the rep was getting are not possible.

most people do. one of the things im starting to have a problem is is with their rates when everyone else is becoming fairly cheap. other than that ive been with them since cingular...

They actually lowered my monthly rate a couple months ago. I was shocked. As for everyone else being a lot cheaper, I am not so sure. I have had Sprint, still have a Verizon plan, and recently looked into T-Mobile. In the end it comes down to coverage for me.

well their prices(AT&T) are still higher than the other providers. unlimited data plans for $20-$30 when at AT&T you only get so much but get unlimited when on wifi....then again wifi isnt everywhere. i myself have almost the lowest plan with one of the lowest data plans and still pay almost $100 a month!....just sayin

Hey I appreciate all the input regarding my question, ive done quite a bit of reading on this forum lately and am learning a lot! So I guess my next question would be, what kind of speedtest.net scores would one get if connected to HSPA?

HSPA that Att is deploying currently is limited to 14.4Mbps. Real world speeds up to ~12Mbps. The captivate does NOT have HSPA, only 7.2Mbps HSDPA.

I realize that there is probably a post regarding these scores already, however if somebody could point me in the right direction i would really appreciate it!

That's why I have straight talk. $45/mo unlimited everything with att service!
When my phone says H, I average about 3mbps dl

my favorite part of this whole thread is that nobody even questions the speeds that the OP posted.....
those speeds are impossible on ATT cell network, period. sounds like he was on wifi in the store.

pirate. Microcell and speeds not possible have been mentioned.

Wireless network speeds depend on a number of variables. If you see the H, it just means the software is turned on in the tower you are connecting to. The faster speeds are dependent on whether or not there is expanded backhaul (fiber from the tower into the network) in your area. Until that's added, you won't see speeds above what you get from 3G. Of course geography, your location, number of people connecting to your tower, etc... also play a role.

Can this device the 4G one work on tmobile Hugh speed network?

Probably not. T-Mobile's and ATTs 3g bands were different frequencies (1700mhz vs 850/1900). However, in some places T-mobile has started to use 1900mhz and unlocked ATT devices will work. This seems to be random right now and even T-mobile support may not be able to tell you where.
Or you can do what I did, and get nrvate's CM10 build for the i957 (I'm a noob so no links for me yet) then flash this radio: Tmo_SGH-T989_UVLE1_radio.zip (Google it). I get full HSPA+ and have clocked DL speeds up to 19000kbs. Of course YMMV, and no guarantees that it will work for you, won't brick your tab or kill your pets.

can you PM me a link how to do this. I have my tab rooted, but no roms installed yet. Do you have the links for the roms? What recovery are you using to flash?

Yeah it works well with the only problem being the power usage is rather high, and drains faster in idle. After looking at logcat I think this radio doesn't go into idle mode properly so keeps sucking power when not in use. Running it's a little less usage (maybe 30 min less) but on idle it drains in 24 hrs. Turning off 3g helps but for me I can live with this to get 20mb down. When ICS for the i957 finally shows up it should be possible to see a better radio get put in CM10 (which is still in early development, but that's what the ROM below is based on).
I'm using TWRP for recovery. After Clockwork being kind of wonky I have seen the light and use TWRP on all my devices. It just works.
The ROM is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867579 and go to post#2. There are some issues but it runs remarkably well for being like 3 weeks old.
This is the radio I used from a Galaxy SII. Google Tmo_SGH-T989_UVLE1_radio.zip and get it from Dev Host. I found out about it looking at radios for similar hardware and found that the Note is close so I took a chace and did it. So far so good!

This is great to hear. I am going to hold off for now, as I would have to open a TMobile account, and I really dont NEED to have this until I start traveling in a few months.
Now what would be AMAZING, is if somehow this tablet could work on verizon. I have a huge corporate account with them and it would cost me next to nothing to add the tablet to the account, assuming it would work. I didn't think it was possible, but then again, I didn't think TMobile high speed connection was possible either.
Any idea if there is a way to get this working on verizon? Or if anyone is even trying?

I can tell you that is impossible. T-Mobile uses GSM and Verizon uses CDMA. You can only put a SIM card device on GSM carriers (TMO and ATT).

I could not tell you as T-Mobile doesn't have LTE yet. TMO will use a band that the i957 can support, but it will probably take another radio (if any) to work. I've seen 21mb down from HSPA+ so even if I never see LTE I can't be too disappointed

Yes it is. The device was locked at ATT and AFAIK there is no other way other than going through a unlock service. I used cell​unlocker.ne​t. $25 and your IMEI gets you a code in a few hours.

As I said that is impossible because the carriers use incompatible setups. SIM card carriers (GSM) will only work with other SIM card carriers. Verizon uses CDMA with no SIM cards. The networks themselves are completely different and hardware cannot be hacked to work. Most of the world uses GSM with SIM cards and if you travel overseas, you'll need a GSM device to use unlocked devices on any networks. Blame Verizon for picking a standard that 80% of the world doesn't use

Has anyone tried flashing the tmobile high speed radio but on the current rooted stock ICS rom instead of the cm10 rom?
In other words, i have a stock rooted sgh-i957 on samsungs ICS rom and i want to be able to use tmobile high speed network (HSPA+). Does anyone know if thats possible?

All DC-HSDPA Discussion«

In an attempt to help tidy up this forum a bit, this thread has been created to centralize all discussion related to DC-HSDPA on the Nexus 4.
*NOTE* DON'T CREATE ANY OTHER THREADS REGARDING LTE. USE THIS THREAD TO ANNOUNCE OR DISCUSS ANYTHING INSTEAD!
Hi guys do we really need 4G or Lte these days ?
Those mobiles supports JUST one Radio frequency .. which is NOT good ..
So you will travel somewhere else 4g /lte will stop working cos of diff. frequency ..
It is about of time when mobiles will support all 4g /lte frequencies same as 3G network ..
I think DC-HSDPA is LEADER now days with brilliant speed ..
4G in UK has EE company which is completely UNACCEPTABLE ! Ridiculous prices overcharging .. NO not ready yet ..
Please leave comments below
Thnx

My phone is about 4-6 times faster than my home internet connection.
4/0.35 Mbit at home, ~20/3 on my phone.

I feel like I'm not getting DC-HSDPA speeds with t-mobile in NYC. No LTE yet either
Still love this phone though!

3UK, DC-HSDPA speeds are fluctuating badly, in the same spot, speeds range from 0.5/0.3 to 14/4, throughout the day, it's terrible! Pings always seem to be around 60-90 though so that's alright.

How do to check the connection status of the N4? All I see is an H in the signal bar...

The N4 radio is not capable of showing when it is using DC-HSDPA, if you go into about phone > status, it'll tell you when using HSPA+ (HSPA+:15) but that's as high as it goes.

The radio knows perfectly well what network type it is on/band/frequency. The problem is that Android has no standard way of displaying anything other than network type. Manufacturers implement their own field test apps, which can communicate directly to the radio and get this information.
Back to the point, no phone with proper Android does. Android does not have a definition for DC-HSPA+ as a network type. This was hacked into CM, which will bite them later on like it did Samsung for LTE (certain phones will say eHRPD instead of LTE since they have conflicting constant 14 in TelephonyManager). It's fragmentation at it's finest.

That's not the point, it can utilise DC-HSDPA, but it doesn't show it in TelephonyManager, even with CM's commit, they said it only works on certain phones because the radio would not show it to the software on most phones.

If you run speedtest or another app that uses data for a few seconds, after starting a test, quickly switch to the phone status (multitasking window) and it should show HSPA+:15 whilst data is flowing.

Yes! I can confirm... I see 15.

tried it but only HSPA:8 still. probably my carrier sucks 2mb up on full bars

How strange, not exactly sure how things work in America but I think you have to sign up to a high speed, or 4G plan for HSPA+, but like I said, I'm not entirely sure. There could also be an alternate APN for high speed.

i dont see the point of having lte when you can have hspa+. i get 25/3 speeds in hungary, which is more than enough.

It is all in your settings about phone .. there is network which say HSPA 10 .. that means it is enhanced HSDPA

If it only happens in your city, then you should contact your carrier. Maybe your phone is using a different band or something.
But I severely doubt it is the phone's problem if two phones have it and it only happens in your city.

Hello,
I tried to search the threads, but i did nit find the information i was looking for, if i did miss this somewhere please point me toward the correct thread and excuse me for this thread.
I was on AOSIP and untill the latest update i was golden, but since the latest update my 4g data transfer speeds are terrible, i litterally see the pictures build as i was the case on old dial-up connections.
I formatted the phone and cleanflashed chroma because i used that before with no problems, but also there is have the slow 4g speeds. i tried resetting my apn settings but to no avail.
I'm on the dutch t-mobile network and thought that the problem is because of the wifi calling.
All data on 4g is slow Streaming music, video, webbrowsing....... the lot.
am i the only one and do i need to RMA my phone or is it somethin known and can somebody help me fix this.
thanks in advance

sounds like the issue is with your local provider, not your actual phone. if your local network has many people on it, it will reduce speeds. the more people, the slower speeds will be.

Mine slow in Houston on Verizon. Don't know if throttled but shouldn't be. APN #s on Google different from what on stock Nexus 6.

Well since the release of 5.1.1, band 12 has been opened up on T-Mobile. Chances are that you are on it now instead of the typical band 4.band 12 is slower but way more reliable and gets through buildings better than 4.
For instance, on 4 I was able to easily get up to 60mbps, but on band 12 I can't break 20. So I would say it's the carrier instead of your device.

thanks for all the tips guys, but no succes, there are no other apn's and if it is related to the 12 band in stead of the 4, the probably don't support that here in the Netherlands yet.
will try to find an older build and hope it is fixed then.

Thank you all for the replies, it was an error at t-mobile they accidentally stopped my 4G subscription, what are the odds it falls together with me flashing a rom.

I've been noticing slower than usual LTE speeds lately on my Nexus 6. I'd normally get 45+ Mbps but Speedtest app has been showing 15. What fixed it for me was going into the APN settings and changing the APN protocol to include IPv4. For me, without IPv4 would give Spotify issues. I recently flashed the System image which probably changed it back to IPv6 only (which is the default for some reason). As soon as I did this my speed went back up from 15 to 45. Switching the protocol between IPv4 and IPv6 was consistently affecting my LTE speed. Setting it to IPv4/IPv6 works as well.
