Root {DISCONTINUED}MegaTron 6.2.5 (Updated 7/13/13)

[Ralkkai]

HOW ..... i have full bars and mine is
DL:433 kbps
UP:60 kbps
Ping:129 ms


megatron 6.0.4
baseband S:M930.02 x.FF27
kernel 2.6.35.7-g4763763
build BobZhome_kernel_v2.1
not complaining because 400 kb is fast just wanna know how i can get 2000 kb in case i need to tether also forgive me if it was shown i have been off the thread for a few days/ weeks <_<

at full bars i only get at most 700ish down. i have used a 3G tweak in the past that pushed me to 1700 on Chev's old rom but at a major toll on my battery. i think the different speeds have something to do with what towers are where. so say not alot of folks where im at have/need 3G so the towers out here are dated even tho my baseband is the latest etc. i dont know if thats correct but its a speculation of mine.

 

[oamilcar]

Is that for me bro??

for you and anyone else having the same problem...

 

[oamilcar]

Whoa!! Wait a minute, are you saying to actually use the Framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from the 6.0.4 installation zip?? If that's the case that's a simple fix!!

yeeey sry if i don't know how to explain my self ,but yes that's exactly what i was trying to say...lmfao

It has to do with the towers and network load. I'm not running this rom, and I have never tweaked anything for 3G and my best (according to the history in the speedtest app) is 1986 kbps down, 677 kbps upload. However I just ran a test and got 250kbps download, and 36kbps upload. HORRIBLE LOL. You can try some of the 3G tweaks but if the tower in your area sucks there isn't much you can do.

Ralakki have you tried a different PRL???? I'm on 11115 and loving it!!! It seems to help!!! The highest I've gotten is around the 1800kbs up and 600kbs down!! I was in Akron Ohio and my closets server was in Cincinnati!!! But I had mock locations on too if it matters and gps is always off!!! But I'm constantly tweaking something on this phone!!!! Its so awesome! But ill try to recreate the settings take some screen shots for you of the tests and my settings!!! If theirs any other way I can help let me know!!

 

[NGD1]

[NGD1]

[Satanslave187]

Hey I have some huge questions I really would like some help with if anyone ill ask noe at a time and wait for responses!!! Thankyou for all who respond and share their time and knowledge!!!

So here goes.... 1. Where is our native hot spot located?? When I had the CT-mod 6.8 6.9 and 7.0 I had it and native usb tethering but when I flashed megatron 6.0 it disappeared!! The only way I could access it was from using anycut!! I would do; anycut-shortcut activity-and chose sprint hotspot!! This made a shortcut t it on my desktop!! I can't do this on the megatron rom!! Can I get that back ?? And why is it not here?? I have screen shots in the ctmod thread of what I'm talking about!!!

 

[niteNarmor]

I posted a screenshot earlier in the thread here showing 2122 kbps down and like 447 kpbs up and I'm using 60683 corporate Sprint PRL and I'm in Upstate NY...

I'm using 24006 corporate which posted higher speeds then I ever had or seen since I have had this. Changing PRL is real simple and easy to do except if your on SPRINT. You actually have to go back to stock first.

Post #2474 shows my speed test.

Sorry but I am with Sprint. So I can not tell you the difference in Boost basebands but when Sprint did the same thing, mainly it was a fix for the wifi radio as the first baseband update killed it.

 

[Satanslave187]

From my experience FF27 has better speed and 3G connectivity.. as in I have signal but 3G seems to work more reliably. My wife upgraded hers first, and we were in the car together during a real bad t-storm. She was able to pull up a radar and webpages.. I couldn't do anything. This is just my experience but so far FF27 has been the best.

Believe me, once you learn how to mod it is hard to stop.

A year ago I was a total noob to this phone and the android system period but not to modding.
I came from a Palm Pre, where you could mod to your delight. Extremely simple and easy to do. But this seemed to be a bigger challenge to me until I found this forum.
The nice people here (with the exception of a few) answered all my annoying questions and helped me do what I wanted. Now, thanks to them, I am able to give (some) back to this community. Not much but some.

 

[Satanslave187]

Oh happy B-Day man!!! I feel ya!! I had a bi t of Clear Gem 190 earlier myself!! Lol I know the PRL I'm on is verizon!!! When I roam that's. Where It goes!! Sprint it my area isn't that good I believe!! Ill do some googling for that PRL!! And that 3g booster!! I tried the V6 mod and it sent my phone into a ram dump!! I didn't know what happened!! But I did a battery pull and all was well!! Also I said F it one day and cranked it up to 1.709 and a min 579 with sio and on-demand settings!! It had no problems at all!! I done it cuse I figured it would run FPSE better and it definetly did!!

Checking it out now will report back soon and ty for the info greatly appreciated!!


EDIT: Very nice bro it worked!! May I suggest you make a new thread so everyone knows to use the files you provided and thanks for the solution!!

This one is for Glorious Sunshine for MegaTron 6.0.4... themes will be updated shortly everyone

"insert awesome screenshot here"

i kind of want this one its bright n colorful

 

[xaelith]

Lol well thank you!!

ALL MY THEMES HAVE POWER MENU FIXED IN THEM, ENJOY EVERYONE!!

just so I'm sure I do it right when I get the chance to fix my own theme, I re-create the theme in UOT using the framework-res and systemui apks from the 6.0.4 update, yes?

 

[xaelith]

Thanks slayer. I read the previous postsand have the files, but I'm still a little confused on what I'm doing to create the fix. Is my guess right, though?

 

[xaelith]

Here ya go bro...

Framework-res-and-systemui.zip

Just use those 2 files in the zip in UOT when recreating your theme with the settings.uot file then your power menu will be fixed...

Thanks to oamilcar for the info and solution to the Power Menu problem in our themes...

You don't create the fix, UOT does, just unzip the zip and use the Framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk that's in there with UOT instead of the ones that Chev provided in the UOTTheme.zip file on his OP...

Hahahaha, looks liike a case of mixed signals. If I had been just a little more paitent with my reply, your edit to the first post would have answered my question. Thanks again, man.

 

[xaelith]

Hey are you in IRC??

I am now.

 

[chevanlol360]

My benchmark and speedtest results after some major tweaks from Pimp My Rom!!

Megatron already has most of the tweaks, if anything you probably just lowered your benchmark scores

 

[niteNarmor]

@Slayer I don't remember, you on sprint or boost?
If sprint, does your hidden menu.apk work fully?
If so, can you send me that apk?

 

[niteNarmor]

I'm on Boost man, but I can send you it anyway and see if it'll work for ya...

Thank you. It would nothing so yeah. I appreciate it.

 

[niteNarmor]

Fricking love my signal boost and new prl. That file you gave me, download in like 2 seconds, literary. It took longer to move my finger to check the process then to download.
