For data connection I've noticed the options below:
Which one do you guys use as I've noticed when streaming on a music app I can't view webpages quicky since it takes forever to load. I am in the UK and on Vodafone Voxi network. I've noticed on the same network with my previous phone data speeds seemed to be faster on 4g (2019 phone Xiaomi Mi 9 ) and on the X fold plus 4g seems to lag and takes a lot longer to load pages when streaming music. I didn't have this problem with my previous phone and its also the same SIM. I do have 5G though in some areas which is a bonus.
Intelligent allocation
The network demand of apps running in the foreground and background will be identified intelligently and bandwidth will be allocated to ensure that apps run smoothly.
Prioritized allocation for the foreground
Bandwidth allocation is prioritized for apps running in the foreground to avoid freezing.
Prioritized allocation for downloading
(not recommended)
Bandwidth allocation is prioritized for downloading, which may cause apps running in the foreground to freeze.

I was wondering if everyone experienced the same thing as I am regarding data speeds.
I use the wap.cingular access point and when I use Internet Connection sharing to tether my phone I generally get speeds ranging from 150-750kbps down and 100-350kbps up.
Tonight for instance I am at a location with EDGE network access (full bars) and am getting about 150 down 100 up when tethered.
These speeds were measured with speakeasy.net speedtest.
However, when I am just using my Tilt by itself (untethered) with PIE, or Google Maps, or another application my speeds seem much much slower.
For instance, when using tethering it took about 10 seconds to load the mail xda-developers.com forum page from scratch. On my device it can take well over a minute (or two) to download the page and become responsive enough for me to scroll it.
Even when i have a 3G connection and get tethered speeds in the 500-800 range my PIE connections seem to be slow like this as well.
I realize that the CPU power of the phone may mean slightly longer loading times to render a page, but the speed difference seems tenfold.
It also seems strange that if I were to download like a 3Mb file it would transfer at speeds more closely matching my tethered speeds, but HTML website browsing is very slow. Bringing up anything other than google usually takes at least a minute to get a usable page.
Am I alone in this? If so...any suggestions. If not...any explanations?
thx
I am wondering if there are any programs for sharing media between a PC and a device where the media is not "streamed" in the normal sense, but rather caches the entire file (or better yet, entire playlist) while it is playing the media. My aim is to be able to use my phone as a media player in my car, which is pretty difficult in my area. AT&T 3G connection is about 300kbps during business hours (although ONLY after they announced the 3G iPhone--I am blaming AT&T for some QOS-oriented capping of users in preparation for higher demands). Also, I often drive through areas with only EDGE coverage, though even in pure 3G coverage areas there are points where music will stop playing, I suppose due to tower switching or some other phenomena beyond my knowledge.
The idea is that if the entire playlist is cached (possibly on an SD card) then there will be no gaps as the network changes or signal is lost. I had used an Orb server with TCPMP player up until a few weeks ago, and it was listenable. However, with the recent changes it is not. I have played with the caching settings in TCPMP, but nothing appears to help as far as my goal is concerned. I could set up an HTTP server and just download the tracks as I need them, but that is far from seamless (especially to do while driving! haha)....
Any help is greatly appreciated
My AT&T Samsung Captivate has 20 to 30 MB data usage per day recently (without using Google maps or web browsing or tethering or streaming). Last time I thought it was due to Google maps, so I stopped using it. But I still have mysterious huge data transfer after I stopped using it. It will easily consume all of the 2GB cap for a month. I checked the daily usage from AT&T web site and knew that these huge data transfer happened very soon after I cut off my wifi and started to use 3G. My wifi setting is "never sleep". I use K9 email mostly, but I think I don't have that much email (20 to 30 perday, mostly no attachments) to cause this problem. My phone is rooted with very minimum modifications. I did have Market Access installed, and I am not sure if the turning on of Market Access to emulate the T-Mobile caused this problem. When the T-Mobile emulation by Market Access is turned on, I can see that the APN has been changed from AT&T to T-Mobile. I have to turn on the Background Data Sync for K9 email to sync at constant intervals.
Does any other person have similar problems? Are there anything I can do to find out which applications/services did this? Does Android has some kind of firewall to detect, identify, and stop these unauthorized data transfer?
Here is the link to similar problems in iPhone user.

There is a thread here, somewhere......someone had the same issue, and they called AT&T.....they stated that their issue was random 20-30 MB use overnight and Customer service said it was normal.
Hi, I've buy an Italian Vodafone Galaxy Tab about 3 weeks ago so I'm a new users of this device (and Samsung's Android device too).
Two days ago I use the 3G data connection for the first time, and I've noticed a huge amount of data traffic monitoring the connection with traffic monitor (you can find it on the market).
I have an HTC HD2 with android before, and I use about 112 Mb of traffic in a mounth.
In one day with galaxy tab I've used 50 Mb of traffic leaving the connection actived but not in use.
So I monitored the situation and realised that :
when I turn on the 3G data connection and I leave it on stand by it doesn't generate traffic.
If I only open the browser or any application that use data, than I close it with task manager, the GT start to use data on stand by like 1 Mb every 5 minute or less.
All the auto-update of the application installed is turned off, and also the auto sync (I'm not a noob of Android) and I kill all the background app.
Anyone of you knows a solution for this problem?
It's a little bit annoying because I've a limited data plan and I can't use so large amount of data, even if I open a single web page without any plugin it use 4 Mb or even more (like 300Kb for the web page and the rest is ghost traffic).
Thank you in advance for any suggest
Hi,
I had the same issue months ago but it was gone to the next day until now.
The internet speed when using WiFi (doesn't matter if at home, at work or other places including public hit soits) is very slow in nearly every app, except web browsers.
9gag or YouTube for example are loading extremely slow...both are taking 3-10 minutes to load their content. If I visit the same pages with a browser like chrome, edge, Firefox or Vivaldi (yes, I tested every of these apps) the content loads as fast as it should.
Also a Speedtest shows the same but the download rates aren't saying, that the internet is that slow:
Browser: 56Mbit/s down, 19Mbit/s up, ping 6ms, jitter 2ms, 0% loss
App: 89Mbit/s down, 19Mbit/s up, Ping 7ms, jitter 2ms, 0% loss
(For comparison with wireless Win10 laptop: 91 Mbit/s down, 19 Mbit/s up, Ping 4ms, Jitter 1ms - same network)
App and browser test are provided by speedtest.net using the same server and the same wifi network.
If I'm using 4G everything loads fine, no problems.
What I already did:
- boot without Magisk
- Disabled AdAway Host file (including reboot)
- Rest Network settings
- tried 2.4 and 5ghz networks
- Restore older network settings with titanium
- restarted my router
- deleted my phone from my router so it set it up as a new device
I really don't have any clue what this issue can cause but I noticed this since I got the S10 in March'19 and it comes and goes frequently though all version since then.
My wife doesn't have any issues with her Huawei P20 on the same networks, so it has to be the phone.
My Exynos S10 is currently on ASG8 (Unlocked EU) and rooted with Magisk, as I mentioned above.
Does anyone have a solution or workaround for this? It's very annoying - especially because I don't have very good mobile data connection where I live (directly inside of a huge town in Germany...sad but true).
Greetings,
Jannomag
