So I'm very excited to report that I have used 35 GB of high speed data this month on straight talk :D
So, it's unlimited, but only kind of. What happens is, the preferred network type setting in CM 12.1 does a really good job and, as long as you stay on LTE (and you might have to keep an active connection too), you have unlimited high speed data. As soon as I dropped into 3g, my data started being throttled.
This is very exciting because, in theory, as long as you live in an area with good LTE coverage, you could theoretically have mostly unlimited high speed data. I am not sure how this little bug works if you switch from one LTE tower to another (this was all done at my house).
I would like some feedback. Please let me know if you try any of the following:
1. Try this on CM 12.1 for yourself and make sure this isn't some fluke that just happened to me this month
2. Try this on ANY other ROM. I don't know what will happen, but I would assume this would work on any CM 12.1 based ROM with the LTE only setting.
3. Can we get something to FORCE our phone to stay on LTE if this is legit? I would rather have LTE than long battery life.
Check out the picture I'm uploading:)
