And download is also much slower compared to other brands. Upload is always very fast (but who the hell needs it fast?). All things are upside down! It must be DL>>UL, but in addition to low DL speed we have DL<<UL !!!
This happen when it's the city with DL/UL speeds are in the 100-1000 Kbps range. If we in the cities with the advanced speeds in 1000-5000 Kbps range everything is normal, the DL>>UL
Do you have such strange unusual DL/UL discrepancy with DL<<UL?
Example of bad upside down DL/UL: 300 Kbps/800 Kbps
Example of good one: 800 Kbps/300 Kbps or 5000 Kbps/1500 Kbps
Have you noticed upside down DL/UL numbers in "bad" tests? DL must be larger
I've ran three Vibrant phones at the same place and time in the city where there is no good 3G speed.
Two of them are unusually painfully slow with download while upload is blazingly (relatively) fast. I was getting 100-300 kbps DL and 800-900 Kbps UL.
High speed UL indicates that we are close to the tower and having good signal but still the download speed unexpectedly sucks
Build date for slow phones is 07/07/2010, will double check tomorrow about faster one.
I use free Speedtest.net application from the Market.
Please do the test !
I get about the same speeds on this as I did on my N900.
Yes, that's what i call "good" case above: the "good" towers, latest equipment and great signal strengths. In such areas my Vibrant is also fine. Problem is in near "bad" towers which are still a majority of the country
seems normal to me since I've had the same type of speeds on both my hd2 and vibrant in areas where 3g quality is known to be poor.

My tests were in the T-Mo shop and we ran different other brand phones, including older ones. All of them were 2-3 times faster on download (and similar or somewhat slower on upload) compared to "bad" Vibrant phones! The one which was "good" Vibrant phone, was similarly fast to other brands.
Same story as i described it above is also in my house where i know the speed range in great details. HD2 shows 800-950 Kbps download speed, Vibrant 250-350 kbps. Near the good tower with 5 Mbps max speeds both of them are equal and work fine, the DL >>UL like it should be. So we probably have some sensitivity issues with Vibrant 3G radios or their settings at low signals
I use the Speedtest dot net application from the Market.
The web based one does not work because needs latest Flash
I have gotten similar dl slower than ul, when my bars are at 1, but most of the time I am very happy with my download speed.
I have gotten over 5Mbs dl with full bars.
The 3G reception on my phone has been quite unpredictable.
I live in the best 3G coverage area in my city. I'm blanketed in T-Mo towers on every side. Inside my house, if I don't touch the phone, I pull down 5Mbps+, and Upload at ~2-3Mbps. It's fast enough to tether and use as my primary connection. Latency is ~35-50ms. I can stream Hulu with no hiccups.
However, if I so much as touch the back of the device with a single finger, the 3G drops until it reverts to EDGE. This is with a silicon case, and I can replicate it every time.
So, that's super annoying. I don't know why this would happen, to be honest.
On top of those problems, I have occasionally run into the issues where my uploads are super fast (~3Mbps), but my downloads are miserable (~0.2Mbps). This usually happens in bigger buildings.
With 3G and 4 bars i get 726/1288 Dl/UL, it has been like that every since I received my phone. Albeit I have only used my phone in a small area so far. Tmobile coverage map says I should be able to take advantage of the HSPA+ speeds, but who knows how accurate those things are.
Have you tried to going in to the mobile network settings and resetting them?

I do not see what we can change there besides roaming. The network is T-mob own one.
I've also noticed my up speed is 2-3x higher than my down speed. Kind of strange. I will have to remember to test it more when I am in different areas.
I get the same results sometimes. Most of the times I am getting download speeds greater than 4 Mb/s in HSPA+ coverage. Last night I decided to do a speed test with my Vibrant and my wifes MyTouch Slide. Both of them yielded the same exact results. I tested them 5 times in the same area and all 5 times I got around 350kb/s download and 1100kb/s upload.
Guess it's the network and not the phone.

Pretty much as topic, not sure if anyone has any first hand experience of it.
higly doubt that since i heard 3g issues were because of tmobile. So far i havent heard of bad reception from the early incredible reviewers but we wont know till its out.
i doubt it... seeing as how the chipset is different(cdma chipset not gsm) and the carrier is different... your results may very tho...

I was hoping we would eventually get a UK version, but obviously we've just been shafted with the desire.... WE HAD THE N1 ALREADY WHY GIVE US THE SAME PHONE
Really doubt it. T-Mobile 3G bands require a second Antenna. The Antenna was located at the bottom of the nexus which was a design flaw and thus why 3G was terrible. Not to mention T-Mobile has terrible 3G coverage.
I just made the move from T-mo Nexus one to the Incredible through Verizon.
I had two replacement devices sent to me because of the 3g issues and all the other problems this device was plagued with from day one.
The incredible so far has been perfect. No 3G issues at all.
I am sure that T-mo's 3g coverage was partly to blame but that wasn't the only cause of this problem. With a T-mo G1 and a T-mo Nexus one sitting side by side often the N1 would bounce back and forth between 3g and Edge if it was able to get the 3g at all. This was with all 3 N1's I used. all the while my G1 had a perfect 3g connection.
Not the Incredible. Great phone. Incredibly snappy. Fast 3g through Verizon. No complaints as of yet.
Fingers Crossed...
my friends incredible southern california area has been getting really low 3g signals. im always at full HSDPA bars and he gets 1 or two bars if hes lucky.....
ive also read that a lot of phones has been rebooting randomly on its own, and some speculate on that low signal. you think his phone is defective?
one of the area's the rebooting was happening in (reportedly) was one of the Carolinas (quite a few customers), and Verizon speculated that it had to do with the local towers causing the problem,
Also the signal bar indicator looks to be a software problem, do a comparison of signal strength and you will see what I'm talking about. I looked at 3 different phones that had full bars, mine had only one bar..but when you look at the signal strength it was almost identical.
my major gripe is battery life, but I just ordered the Seidio replacement

Lots of HTC phones have the antenna at the bottom of the phone The Touch HD and the Incredible to name a few. \
I have had no 3G issues, The antenna indicator always reads a bar less then my droid did in the same spot but the phones perform the same and I have read that this is most likely a false reading

Check the dB's, not the "bars". Bars read a little lower, but signal strength is better on DI compared to a lot of other phones.
Overall, I thought moto droid's quality and reception were good, the DI appears to be a few steps above that!
So far, DI's been flawless!!
You canals force 3g by dialing #*#*4636*#*# and select evdo from phone information menu. That's what I use when I really need to browse.

I checked my signal strength compared to my fiance's droid, my incredible got the same and sometimes better. the bars on the incredible lagged some and would show one less. For the most part they fluctuated about the same.

One of my main complaints with the Nexus One in general is 3G reception. It's not where it should be when compared to other phones (G1, myTouch, etc.). How are people fairing with 3G reception after the Froyo update? Is it looking better?
No change for me.
Thanks for your input. I do believe the issue is related to antenna placement, i.e. the design of the phone, so I guess this is never really going to be corrected.
It's not a major issue though depending on your area, I suppose.
My reception has improved, actually, an area where I previously got no signal - at lease gives me 1 or 2 bars without going out. That was only in that certain spot though, it was never a problem anywhere else.

Oh sadly its EDGE.. but I mean, its something for an area that usually would simply be nothing.
I have slightly better signal as well.
Comes and goes... more fluctuation than before...... other than that, no real problems. Though, I have noticed I can upload a few things with upload links online now.... only music, pics and voice recorder eclipse, but here's to a developer making (or updating) a file browser that includes a plugin for the browser to upload anything...
I actually had a real problem with reception when I never used to.
constant edge connection when I always had 3G or H.
after flashing froyo my reception is better and I'm on 3G a lot more often like I used to be.
My 3G has always sucked on my Nexus.. even at my home I have to use Wi-Fi.
When I try to use 3G a lot of times the icon is present but I don't think I have any connection because if I go to the market it says something like "A network error has occured, retry or cancel" and also, I can't refresh the FaceBook feed.
Does anyone have this problem? Or is there a way to fix it?
Mine have gone up some...
<<--Tethering
noticeably improved here, thou no more "H" doesnt seem to hiccup anymore
p.s loving the froyo so far, better voice clarity also , only thing i miss is trackball wake
How do you guys reach such high speeds ? The highest my 3G DL speeds have hit is 600 kb/s pre-FroYo ...
much better reception for me
My house is borderline edge/3g and i would say it has gotten worse... im seeing more GPRS lately but w/e I use wifi while i am at home anyway...
Mine 3g actually seems worse after updating to froyo/2.2. I'm getting edge in places I used to get 3g but I will do some further testing

i have better reception, at least on edge. now, i can actually get a signal in my apartment, most of the time, where as before, it was hardly ever.
Everything is working the same, if not better for me AT&T nexus one btw
the new froyo radio is 4.06 and its way better then 4.04, atleast in my personal case. signal is stronger and for once I am actually seeing a little 3g indoors.
With stock Rom back in August I was hitting 5.3 Mb/s download speeds. Now I'm barely hitting .5 consistantly. I did some Nandroid restores and retested. All were the same crappy speeds.
No radio changes to date that I know of. Running Eugene's latest Frankin-whiz. Anyone else experiencing this? Any ideas?

NANDROID completely crippled my speed. I restored from a NANDROID backup and it ****ed up everything. Not sure if it was the lagfix I removed prior but either way, restore with ODIN to JI2.
See, I'm still on the stock rom though, so I wonder if it was the lag fix. I may try reversing the lag fix, than retesting to see if it is any better.

Makes me wonder if it's a network issue. I tested my wifes vibrant (which is still 100% stock) and it was only pulling .88 mbps down and .90 mbps up....

I never applied any lag fix mainly because Eugene's roms are fast enough and I give a damn about benchmarks. My first nandroid has a record of my speedtest, just cant reproduce the speeds.

It may just be a network issue. I live in Seattle and usually pull over three downtown, but occasionally it'll force me over to Edge, then an hour later I'll be back on 3G. What sucks for me though is I can only pull about 1.5 - 1.8 in my apartment, but literally two blocks away I can pull 5-6 consistently.

Yeah, my WiFi has no issues at all and I can constantly pull great speeds off it. The data coming off the network is what is spotty at best for me, usually on the low side.
tmobile speeds on the vibrant is absolutely horrible in north Philadelphia. I get like 999k or 1gb download if i hold it in the air. When I used the hd2 rooted with android, I got like 2 to 3 gb.. so it's obviously the phone not being a good signal/data grabber. It's samsung's fault.. Nobody had better reception that Motorola in my opinion.. their phones always get good reception. Just my opinion through testing

Just got off a chat with TMO, they said one of the local towers has been down for a while. Im not sure if that makes me feel any better but at least there is a known problem instead of the "everything looks good from here" answer I was expecting. Id rather have a tower down and crappy speeds than crappy speeds with no tower down. just have to wait and see.
OK, so before this phone I previously had a vibrant and then the mytouch4g. I live in a so called 4g area. The nexus s seems right in line with my vibrant and I can get a tick under 6mbps down. The upload here is faster on my nexus than the vibrant or the mytouch, at around 1.7mbps. The mytouch at Max could pull about 7.5mbps. I can't remember if I ever got more than that. I'm not making this threat to complain about the speeds of this phone.
My question is, if this phones radio can get a theoretical Max of 7.2mbps download, is that an unrealistic number even when the tower can pump out higher speeds? For example, the mytouch has a Max of 14.4mbps but even in a 4g area it never pulled down close to that. I'm thinking the speed of the radio is like alot of things where you have the theoretical Max and then you have the functional limit. Am I wrong saying that? Has anyone gotten a 7mbps download speed off the phone? Or conversely, if anyone has owned a g2 or mytouch4g, have you reached speeds anywhere close to those maxes? Is tmo even pumping out that much bandwidth yet?

Corona is 30-40 mins from LA, population like 160,000 people. so it isnt some podunk town
Damn you live in corona and get those speeds? I'm down in temecula, but on ATT. I see around 3 Mbps but have been thinking of switching.
Anyway theoretical max is most always limited by the backhaul to the tower, depending on how many T1 or more connections it has. But you should be able to get pretty damn close to max if all things were right in the perfect conditions.

ya the speeds out here are pretty damn good
You will definitely run into the limit of the processor using SpeedTest.
You can show this if your home DSL / cable is fast enough. I get 17-19Mbps down and .9mbps up over WiFi through my DSL (Free, in France, ASDL 2+, and I live 800m from my CO in Paris, I'm using WiFi N from an AirPort Extreme) using my MacBook Pro (core i7, 8GB RAM so it can take it. ), running SpeedTest to a Paris server in Chrome. Using the same WiFi, I can get up to 8.5mbps down and .9 up on my Nexus S, connecting to the same server through the SpeedTest App.
I therefore know that while my connection can support much higher speeds, the phone's hardware/software can't handle them. For reference, an iPhone 4, right next to the NS, pulls up to 6.9mbps down. My N1 can do about 6.5 at best, and my old faithful milestone at stock clocking couldn't do better than about 4.5. Given that the Hummingbird processor in the NS is at 1ghz, and the hardware-similar iPhone's A4 (the GPU, much better in the NS as a SGX540 versus the iPhone's SGX535, isn't engaged at all by speedtest) is running at roughly 750-800mhz, those scores seem to indicate that the processor is the bottleneck with this test on these devices. Idem for the N1 versus the Moto - it is generally 1.4x to 1.5x faster with most CPU kinds of stuff compared to the Milestone, and the 6.5 to 4.5 ratio tends to follow that. I can't tell you why the N1 is slower consistently than the iPhone 4 at this test over WiFi, but it most definitely is.
Over 3G, I get wildly variant service all over Paris. I've seen up to 6mbps with the iPhone 4, the NS, and the N1, and up to (still) about 4.5 with the Milestone.
3G radio signal is something else entirely - the Moto is by far the best, then the NS, and then you have to fall a long, long way before you get to the iPhone and the N1.
San Fernando Valley here.
Never seen more than 3Mb/s on the NS on the down side, usually 1.5-2Mb/s on the up. My N1 in the same locations routinely pulled 4Mb/s down, about 1.5-2Mbs up. Highest I recall ever seeing is 4.4Mb/s on the N1 down.
One thing I've noticed with the Speedtest app is that the default server for me, Los Angeles, is often very slow for all devices. I can pull faster speeds if I test against Bullhead City or other Az cities.
I concur with @big_adventure that the phone's software seems to limit it rather than the wireless technology. I'm on a 30Mb/s FIOS line at the house, the laptop gets 32 down, 20 up, the Nexus S on the same WiFi node maxes out 12Mb/s down and 7Mb/s up.
I'll try to run some tests today to see if my N1 can still get the 4Mb/s speeds it used to average at my office. I'll also run some tethering tests and see what the laptop can pull over the tether for comparison.
running speed tests on a mobile phone, the bottleneck is ALWAYS the mobile hardware. the combination of cpu, memory type and speed, are ALWAYS the bottleneck when speed testing on a phone. so its the whole package that matters. maybe the nexus 1 has slower RAM memory but faster CPU, but the iphone 4 has slower CPU but faster memory, etc.
I'm getting 2.7-3.8mbs download and ~1.7 upload(never seems to change much) here in different parts of North Dallas.
I just did about a dozen tests between the two phones (Nexus S and Nexus 1), from my office, where I used to get 4.0Mb/s on the N1 in Speedtest app on the phone.
I ran a couple of tests against 3 different servers (Los Angeles, Lake Havasu, Bullhead City) on each phone, and again on my laptop tethered via wifi hotspot to the Nexus S.
I threw in a few extra tests on the NS after a reboot of the phone (to swap the sim back and forth between the two phones).
The results were pretty much the same for each method.
I peaked out at 2.9Mb/s down on both phones, and 2.8Mb/s on the tethered laptop.
Upload speeds more interesting, the Nexus One maxed out at 1.3Mb/s on every test to every servier, the Nexus S got 1.7Mb/s on every test to every server, and on the tethered laptop as well.
Both phones show full bars and 3G and I used the Antennas app from the Market to confirm that both phones were connected to the same cell tower.
Perhaps not the best field testing, but good enough to show me that if either phone has an advantage over the other, in my area, it's actually the NS because it's getting 40% faster uploads and comparable downloads.
It also shows me that my fears that the NS wasn't getting the 4.0Mb/s I am used to in this location is not because of the device, it seems to be a change in the quality of service here.
As a final point of interest, I ran the same tests using my iPhone 4 on AT&T. Averaged about 1.9Mb/s on the down, 1.0 on the up. This was interesting because this phone was averaging 2.6-ish down last time I tested it here. It seems that both AT&T and T-Mo aren't serving up what they used to here near the Van Nuys Airport.
This also speaks to what I've said consistently about T-Mo vs AT&T...when I can get service from T-Mo it's much faster than what AT&T gives me, but the problem with T-Mo is too many areas that I can't get signal from them around here where AT&T is available on the phone.
I have been having issues with my phone where it seems to get VERY slow speeds on my home WiFi.
All other devices get very high speeds (eg. Laptop 300+ Mbps, OneplusOne 105Mbps, Nexus 5 60Mbps, Nexus 7 70Mbps).
My Moto X Pure though, for some reason, often gets very unstable speeds varying from 5Mbps to 40Mbps. There is rare occasion when it gets full speeds of 160+ Mbps, but not often.
Anyone else experiencing awkward slowness? It sucks when updating larger apps.

Yes. I see slow LTE speeds as well. I posted about it here and Motorola.com and of course no one had anything to say. Top speed at home on wifi is about 180 Mbps. Its rare I get that. I check it with the speed test app and maybe the 3rd time I try it will be at max speed. Normally I see about 50-60. I feel like my LTE speeds are way slower than what they used to be at home and at work. About half of what they were with my old Droid Turbo. Debating getting another one. Not sure if I got crappy antennas or what. I have nothing else to go on since no one else could give me any feedback.

Yes. I just noticed this yesterday. I'm doing more research but it appears unless I'm right on top of my router it sucks. I'm likely going to be sending back my Pure to moto over this as soon as I confirm other phones do much better (pretty sure my other ones do but need to do back to back comparison of them).

I'm likely going to be sending back my Pure to moto over this as soon as I confirm other phones do much better (pretty sure my other ones do but need to do back to back comparison of them).

Initial indications are that it's got abysmal 5.8 ghz performance beyond maybe 15 feet. Much worse than other devices. Very good though on 2.4 only.
Further comparisons seem to indicate it might be on par with other portables. Dunno for sure. Still investigating. Just noticed it as it can get really, really bad on 5.8 while still connected.
I'm having the worst WiFi speeds imaginable right now, while my one plus has great speeds on the same WiFi. Any solutions for this?

I noticed that my Moto X drops WIFI connectivity every few seconds when I'm in a particular area of the house and the phone's Bluetooth is on. My Wife's N5, N7 and my old N4 work OK so it's definetly something to do with the phone.
Actually, I was checking out my network the other day, and was surprising surprised at the actual connection speed it was reading. Laptop gets maybe 650mbps connection in the same location. Behind 2 walls about 60ft away from Asus AC68 router. which hides behind a TV.
internet is local company, 50 up/50 down... down speed is about on par with other devices
I just got this phone yesterday and I've got to say I'm very surprised about it. It's very useful $300 phone and it does everything is $700 phones does. Sorry for bad grammar I'm using text-to-speech. But I've also noticed that if you switch to the 2.4 gigahertz you don't have the Wi-Fi issue for some reason it's only the 5 gigahertz
