4G LTE on Speed 7 Plus - what's your experience?

Hi all,

I'm in the UK and on the EE network using their 4G, and the Speed 7 downloads stuff really fast when I'm out and about. 4G when it works is really amazing... sitting on a train watching read time HD video streaming without caching is definitely miles better than 3G and to me is a strong selling point of this phone.

However, EE in the UK do charge a lot for data so I have been experimenting with other providers. I now have Three, O2, and Vodaphone PAYG SIMs. None of them have any credit on them but that should be enough to check signal... and where I am at the moment, it is not too impressive, I'm not getting 4G reception from any of them except EE - the rest are giving me 3G. I do realise that with this phone, only your chosen data SIM will get 4G, and the one in the other SIM slot will only do GSM, so I did make sure that data was turned on in the right SIM if I was using two and turned on mobile data etc.

In theory, the speed seven should be perfect for the UK, it has Band 20, Band 7 and Band 3 which should cover all of these providers. Although there are radio utilities out there that are good on signal strength, I haven't found one that tells me what Band I am actually using on 4G. (so if you know...)

So, no matter where you are in the world, I'm interested to know what you're connecting to... what 4G provider do you use, and more importantly, what bands are they on? This would be for the 'International' version of this phone which has the B20/B7/B3 radio. My phone actually reports it is enabled for 4G B1, B2, B3, B4, B7, B17 and B20 but I think that may reflect the different radio modules that can be installed, not the real hardware situation.

thanks in advance!! :cool:

Netflix issue -- Tearing with high speed horizontal movement

Folks,

I'm not sure if this issue occurred during 4.4 Kit-kat, but it definitely has happened on Lollipop.

I purchased a 612 in Japan a few months ago. The Lollipop update wasn't coming through for me (and I had some Wi-Fi frequency issues), so when I finally saw an apparently official 612 American (I'm American) ROM to flash, I diligently followed instructions and successfully installed 5.0. I've since upgraded to 5.1.1 using Sony's PC Companion.

Anyways, onto the issue, which I believe this is the ONLY community on the net that could possibly help me with.

In Netflix, and seemingly ONLY on Netflix (as in, not via the Videos app, YouTube, etc), when a movie has high speed panning/action, there is a tear in the first 1/3 of the screen (a vertical one), toward the SONY logo. When I flip the tablet 180 degrees, it's on the opposite 1/3 of the screen!

The ONLY thought I have is that maybe the Japanese models physically have a different refresh rate than the US ones, and in flashing my unit, I managed to run into that issue? And perhaps Netflix is one app that doesn't VSYNC properly? I've tested every thing under the sun and while I originally thought it was happening only after I pulled the notifications tab down from the top, I recently had it happen without touching anything after a fresh restart.

I LOVE this tablet, but honestly, Netflix in bed is a HUGE use case for me. I'd LOVE to solve this issue. If anyone can help (and please let me know if more info is needed btw), I'm exceedingly grateful.

Slow Wifi connection - Hotspot speed OK

Since i have Mi4i, i have wifi problems.

This is wifi speed in speedtest.
Signal is excellent as you can see, and i have ridiculous download and upload speeds...

If i'm using Mi4i as Hotspot, wifi works great, with no problems, everything working as normal, having >10mbps speeds (download and upload).

I have to update apps via Pcsuite, and this is stupid and ridiculous now a days. I can't open a webpage in chrome...

i've reported this error, but i think this is a driver/kernel problem...

SD Card (what speed?)

What speed SD Card will the MXPE actually take advantage of. Will it read/write 90MB/s? Or are you just wasting your money buying a higher read/write card?:confused:

How to speed up a chinese tablet?

Mi4i wifi speed

Based on official spec mi4i has MU-MIMO but I'm getting only 433Mbps. My others phones and tablets can get up to 866Mbps. I wonder what speeds are you guys getting?

Network speed display EMU 3.1

Hello!

I want to switch on the network connectivity speed display. It was in the settings panel earlier, but now it disappeared.
Or maybe not completely. If I search in the settings I can see that the option exists, but when I click on it, it's hidden... (See the PIC attached)

I'm guessing there is a option in a deeper level where I can set it.

Does anyone know a solution? My phone is rooted, so if it requires editing some config files, I'm all for it.

Thanks.

Best ROM for out and out speed

I recently resurected my tab 7.7. Could anyone advise on the best ROM for out and out speed. The stock DXMD3 or is there a custom ROM that's quicker?

I have a P6800 if that makes a difference

Here is the result I get tonight with 5.9.2

Internal Read: 124Mb/s (vs LG G4 240Mb/s)

Samsung Evo 32gb (claims to be 48Mb/s)

It seems to have problem with SD support. I keep getting "SD needs to be formatted".

USB Transfer speed (i.e. using ADB)

Has anyone know Oneplus 2 USB transfer speed when copying large file using ADB? My Oneplus One ADB transfer speed is around 6 to 7MB/sec. I am wondering whether Oneplus 2 is any faster.

Nexus 5 CPU speed control [Please help!!]

Hi,
I recently Rooted my Nexus 5, I'm running Android 5.1.1 , I'm using TWRP recovery, and I am using the latest version of Elementalx kernel. My phone has been running ridiculously slow and choppy, previous to rooting. Once I Rooted things started clearing up. I overclocked my CPU to 2.803 ghz and a minimum of 300mhz and set the governed to on demand. My phone runs stable and doesn't overheat. However for some strange reason the max and sometimes the minimum speeds change by themselves. Sometimes when I try to set it to 2.5-2.803 it always stays at 1.95. And it's really annoying. I keep trying to set the speeds higher but often it won't go above 1.5-1.9 ghz.
I've used many different kernel tuners/cpu managers, including the one for Elementalx but the same thing keeps happening. How can I get my phones cpu to stay at the frequencies I want without them changing on their own.

[BUGS] - Speed 7 stock ROM ZP951 20150820-222143

Hi,

I have purchased a new Zopo Speed 7 and, only with one day of use, I have found several BUGS. Almost all these bugs are registered in Zopo official forum:

I discovered these bugs:

1. The language "Deutsch (Österreich)" = German (Austria) does not work. Use "German (Germany)". "German (Austria)" causes a system crash if you use the volume button. Please see here:

2. The speaker is not really loud. "Cesium" ringtone - 90dB metered on the backside. 80db while the phone is on the table. Changing from 248 to 255 in the engineer mode does not really help. I can also hear that it is not possible to make it louder. This is an issue if you disable vibration. You won't hear your phone in public.

3. Push for notifications do not really work.
Working: phone calls, SMS, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger
Not working: Telegram, AquaMail, AlarmDroid, Amazon, Skype
Telegram and AlarmDroid do work, if I don't close them (in the multitasking menu), but it is annoying to keep them there.

4. Widgets still do not work after rebooting the phone. You have to remove them and add them again.

I hope Zopo solve theses BUGS asap.

Moto X Play Wifi speed compared to my former Nexus 4

Hi guys! I'm very glad with the upgrade in camera I've got, however some minor performance glitches and, lastly, wifi speed have been bothering me.

Watch this simple video I've took comparing both Nexus 4 (2 and a half years old) and my brand new Moto X Play wifi performance. Note that both phones were right beside the router. Some meters away from the router, Moto X Play can even score worse (sometimes lower than 1 Mbps - no, I'm not kidding).

Please, tell me this WiFi speed is something I can fix.

[Help] Z3 slow internal memory speed.

I don't know what happened, but in the last few days, my internal memory got so slow that i have to wait like 15 second for the applications list in Settings/Apps. Also, it takes 20 minutes to simply move a 200mb file from a folder to another. I have no clue about the cause. These 2 things were istantaneous before I had this issue, and I have no idea if it's either a software or an hardware problem. I would like to know some ideas on how to solve it before trying a reset.

I'm on Android 5.1.1, rooted.
Sorry for my English.
