So, I installed SlimROM for S3mini and i think it's awesome.
However, I've had some trouble with my internet when i'm not on wifi. The logo says I have 3g but its very unstable. Just now I tested it and the play store worked fine and then suddenly didn't anymore. But if i press Retry for about 10 times, it sudden;y works fine again.

One thing i've noticed as well is how tasker is unable to find my locations based on net sometimes.
Anyone know what's going on? and what i can do about it.
Does this occur in one area or anywhere you go?

Many different places.
I think i've found some interesting stuff. It seems that when i'm on HSPA Internet works but not when i'm on 3G... Anyone know what this could mean?

Probably the location you are at does not have the refarmed 1900 towers, where i live if i drop to 3g it would instantly not work and would have to wait till im back on HSPA or H to get decent signal.

Could be although that wouldn't make sense as the phone had no troubles with internet before I install SlimROM.

You can try a different rom then cause some roms have bad data as its not fully stable on their sources. So for now flash a different rom and see if it improves.
So I would like to Bump this thread. As after trying many different maclaw ROM's, waited for months to see if anything would develop that would help me, It's still not fixed.
So the situation is this: My phone's data works fine in the whole of europe (I just travelled and never let me down). Because so much time has passed I've installed SlimKat ROM, and again my data seems to be unstable.
I'm thinking it's a Modem problem and I wonder if there is anything I can do about this.
Also, once I read that someone had a similar problem, no fix for it though.
Also, If other people are aving similar troubles, please post to get a feel for how often this problem occurs
You can try switching your phone in 2G only mode and see if net is working that way. It will be a little slower than 3G, but try and report Maybe the 3G signal in your area is weak.

Thanks, I'll try this. However, I don't think my 3G sidnal is weak in my area as I've never had the problem with StockRom. Also, I'm having the trouble wherever i am throughout my whole city and in other cities. To me, that doesn't seem to be a signal problem.

Getting like 15kB/sec download and 70kB/sec upload
Wth?
Real slow anyone else get this?
T-Mob USA btw.. Server in Philadelphia
nope i got 2.15 mb/ps download and 1.31 mb/ps upload
127 ms in new york
but with the old radio i would get 3mb/s and 2mb/s
I noticed today my 3G seemed a tad slower. My speed tests are maybe 20% slower than usual. I got Tmo in Sacramento.
well, before my 3g connection totally conked (i'm connected, but no data is being transferred at all.... happened after I installed adfree) I was getting terrible data rates, just like yours... I actually got up to 33k ish on the download tho... i'm in the Chicago area. Usually I can get around 1-1.5M in my area.
not to kang your thread, but any chance adfree somehow hosed me? if i turn on wifi, i can connect just fine... so it makes me think adfree was just a coincidence because I would think it would affect my browsing on wifi too.

Same here . I flashed back to the 32.26.00.24u_4.04.00.03_2. Not a problem you wont brick your phone. My speeds were terrible with the new radio. I"m back up in the 900 kbs now . With the new radio I was averaging a 1/3 of that.
Noone can help me?
yea i noticed that dl speeds are way slower than before... anyone know how to fix that?

New radio actually improved my speeds for ATT
Did it start immediately after you flashed FroYo or sometime afterwards?
I'm also here in Philadelphia on T-Mobile and am having the exact same issue. It began immediately after flashing. I'm quite frustrated at this point.
My N1 is not rooted. I went from stock 2.1 to stock 2.2.
Im also getting slower speeds here in miami. I kept the stock radio but changed from gsm auto prl to wcdma preffered and my data is close to 20 percent quicker according to speedtest.net app. i tried it over and over again on the smae spot and it was consistent. I went back to gsm auto prl and again my data got slower.

My upload speeds are actually fine. Here are my last few speedtest.net results (all are in kbps from the comcast server in philadelphia):
Down/Up
38/1350
26/1205
43/1406
4/1205
21/1467
I was not having any issues until I made the upgrade this morning to Froyo.
I disabled 3G and am downloading around 190kbps.
Do we need to change the radio? Is Tmobile in Philly having 3G issues? I can't keep my phone as is with such a slow data connection.
Im having the same problem. It started right after I flashed froyo with the new radio. Im on tmob in dallas. Is it only people with tmobile that are having this problem?

For Speedtest, switch the server. Don't use the Miami server. It sux and gives really low speeds... I'm in Miami also and I always thought my speed sucked, i switched the server in speed test and i'm getting 1.1Mbps Down and around 800Kbps Up

As I already wrote was almost too obvious that the poor GSM signal indication was done purposely on Verizon request.
Well, now I have the proof

Just edit build.prop and change the line
ro.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=1
to
ro.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=0
then reboot the phone
and your three or four stolen signal bars will be back.
Don't forget to say cheers to verizon
For the record I just tried to do the same on the D2g which is affected by the same "feature" and it works perfectly too...

Confirmed working~
You are the man!!!
God bless you!!!! Works on Droid 2 Global too!!!!!
Indeed.
Likely there are also other global models that can be fixed too, for now I wrote it just on the D2g room because I have it (i got it after the d3)
I posted right away link to your post here over at D2G general, since we were quite a few people over there annoyed from that "tweak" of Verizon since pretty much day one. Sorry for the cross post - I didn't notice you already posted in dev threads. Thanks again!
Did you notice UMTS signal indicator became 5 bar from 4 bar?
I made this change to the CM7 build.prop file. For future releases.
yeah the Solutor, work fine
Mind = blown.
Confirmed to work here too, i'm on the Liberty ROM btw.
It's quite sad too, considering 1 line can fix your GSM reception. This makes me wonder, does it do anything else too, for example will it make it unusable for CDMA networks, or is it really only affecting GSM signal indication? That would make it even sadder!
The Solutor ! i do little test, i keep phone in this same place and change that what you advice.
first i haved alwasy 2bars and after reset i have 4bars of signal !!! thx
Thanks the solutor!
edit: ye I got a total of 5 bars now instead of 4

Wow, thank you Solutor! This was my one and only critics point with this phone, but now, WOW WOW WOW, PERFECT SIGNAL!
Mille Grazie!
PS: I think no one should complain to Motorola or Verizon, they shouldn't know that we know it, to keep this solution!
Thank you so much..
now the signal shows perfectly..
however, I have to report another problem..or the same problem
even tne signal shows correctly, once I lost my signal
it cant find it automatically and i cant register the network manuanlly
i have to reboot it to make it work..(even i turn the airplane mode on)
could you find a way to fix it please?
thank you very much
I tried to reproduce that, went to the basement, waited till the signal dropped and going back up. But the signal was back immediately.

Well they hit the switch on December 1st of this year, been getting a strong LTE signal since then. Been keeping an eye on the data going in and out of this phone. I have noticed that during phone calls the network switches back to “4G“ and when calls end the “LTE“ reappears. Does anyone here maintain an LTE signal during phone calls by any chance?. Or is this just preliminary tower behavior for testing?

That's how LTE works on AT&T. When on a phone call it switches back to HSPA+. I think it will always be like this but I'm not 100% positive. Never been an issue for me. It switches back and forth very quickly and I hardly ever use data while I'm on the phone.
Well it seems LTE coverage is expanding in the NYC area as of today. I'm now getting LTE signal in the boroughs. Bronx and Queens to be exact.

Hello everyone,
For the longest time I was not able to get LTE connection on my Note 4 international variant (N910F). I called T-Mobile about it, since I knew the phone had the capabilities to connect, and T-Mobile told me that I should have bought their phone if I wanted LTE, and that they could not help me.
Giving up all hope on LTE connection, I started installing roms to see what cool features where out there. I installed several different roms, and still I had no LTE (not that I was thinking of getting it). Then I installed CM12 and LTE appears! I check the speeds and indeed I was connected to LTE on T-Mobile line. Everything was great until I found out CM12 has three great bugs that I cannot live with: 1) No apps to SD possibility and 2) Access to the camera, from any app, crashes. I have to reopen the app a second time for the camera to function (Messenger has no access at all) and 3) Various app crashes.
So I returned to stock rom, but I miss the features of a custom rom (especially ViPER) and LTE. I tried other roms but I can't find any with LTE working.
Do you know what part of CM12 enables LTE? And if I can flash it into another more stable custom rom?
Thanks
With stock formware on N910F, the LTE icon is displayed as 4G. Try checking your connection again by going to Settings>About Device> Status... then under Mobile Network type.. you can see if you are actually connected to LTE.. There is also an app called Network Signal Info on play store. Good luck

I checked the connection on mobile network on stock ROM and the highest option I had was 4G. Maybe I'll email CyanogenMod and ask them. Thanks though

Yup....
On international phones, LTE signal is represented by 4G icon. So if you see 4G on your phone, it's actually LTE. You were already getting LTE in the first place. You did not have to flash roms and void warranty.
Do you see "LTE" as in the picture below?

Ive noticed instability with connection, at start it was just too perfect and then it started to drop.
I play mobile legends and in the begining I was getting good ping, but then it started to jump, so I tested speed and can notice ping is not stable, while on my op6t it is good and stable, tested on both WiFi and 4G+. Any body noticed this and found a solution? Please advise.
** Note: I noticed this not only on mobile legends, on YouTube and web browsing as well, even sometimes telling my no connection.
My device is global with official global software.

i have that idea in mind, but I still need 2 days or 3 to be able to do it. also, I am thinking not to go that way since it is my daily driver and I want to keep it as stable as possible so I do not keep backing up and restoring all the time.
A question, is EU rom official? I still don't get it as I cannot see it on the official website, I think Star and Mars and whatever are all custom roms, am I correct?
Thanks for previous answer and Thanks in advance.

Yeah that's weird I am sure it'll probably update eventually and make it go away or maybe try resetting your phone after backing it up. Also try going to your settings and type reset at the top it's going to say reset network settings. Click that and restart your phone sometimes phones ping off of the wrong towers this usually fixes that issue.
