Hi guys,

I dont know whats going on...im getting speeds of 50-150 kb/sec now...this isnt even Rev regular speeds lol...

[TAR]

can you give more details?

[skiiman1]

can you give more details?

I installed the OMJ WM 6.1 RevA and GPS ROM correctly and have the 3.37 radio installed...For some reason I am getting speeds of 100-150 kb/sec in areas where I used to get 500-600...I was expecting to see a jump up to 1500-2000 like everyone else in RevA is getting. I also checked EVDO maps and RevA is running in my area.

My Device Info is as follows:
ROM version: 3.37.NO2.200
ROM date: 4/9/08
Radio version: 3.37.10
Protocol Version: DCAAXAM-4350H
Hardware version: 0001
PRL version: 51020
PRI version: 1.37_002
Browser version: MSIE 6.0
ESN: ---
ERI version: 4

I also must mention that yesterday I was still getting 500-600...but for some reason today nothing over 150. The only changes I made since yesterday was that I ran the TeleNav 1 time and changed the slot cycle index from 2-->0 (which I have since changed back to 2, with no improvement in the 150 kb/sec speed....

As you can imagine this is really upsetting because I was thinking my speeds would be improving and I dont know if I can even call Verizon to complain about th espeeds because I have a modified phone which I dont think they support.

when you prolly messed with the SCI settings you changed the rev a thing also..... so basically go back into the area and look ofr rev a and than change that to the opposite of what it is on and see if that does summtin for you.

The only settings I changed were the SCI settings...there are no RevA settings in any of hte menu's that are accessed when entering the SCI settings.

there is bro you will see somewhere under one of the branches an option that says rev a actually im looking up now...... its under data parameters.

No there isnt...im not blind. Would someone else with a Verizon Touch chime in here?

Under my Data Parameters section all it says

Item: Setting:
Packet Dial String #777

I dont understand this...I've made no changes to the RevA settings so even if they werent enabled before I should still be getting similar speeds to what I had before....Im not..Can you imagine how much this sucks

Hi Dash,

Just wondering if you can explain if these settings are correct:
Modem Settings

Preferred mode (I changed from Auto --> HDR only) other choices are digital, cdma
HDR Hybrid Preferred (Default is enabled)

What is the Hybrid preferred??

These are the only settings I could find that are related to EVDO...I know HDR only forces EVDO and no 1X connections
