::: VA ::: 531 Report post Posted January 24, 2011 Hi Friends, First Let me wish you all a happy new year. Now I have been using this phone for the past 4 months, and I have speedtest.net app on it. I notice that the speed is almost always a constant of 240 to 300 kbps even if the EV reception is Full. Is this normal ? Other friends who have this mobile can you confirm ? I ask because I also have bsnl gsm 3g with a HTC legend, and the same app I get up to 3 MBPS download speed. Also another problem I face in this phone is that the tower information is not constantly updated. For example, I have this mobile in my pocket, and if I look at the tower , it shows full . But, I try calling , it does not connect. Then, after a 5 seconds the tower goes to just one point. I think this is a problem because of older version of Android. Has any one successfully installed newer version of Android on this Mobile ? Thanks. Data speeds are always calculated in bps meaning bits per second and not Bps which is bytes per second. (1 Byte = 8 bits) So 3mbps means 3 mega bits per second which will work out to be 384 KBps (Kilo bytes per second) As per what you have mentioned you are getting a speed in between 2-3 mbps. Its decent i think. You are lucky unlike many of us who are using imported handsets with no evdo yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
