Concerning 3G, are you sure it doesn't switch to HSDPA, but perhaps the icon doesn't work ?

My plan doesn't make it possible to have >40kB/s, so HSDPA or not doesn't really help ...

Anyway, in "about my phone", it says that the connected network is hsdpa.

Sorry for noob question, where i have to put boot image for oc for install it?

You just download it to your harddrive and flash it using fastboot (described earlier in this thread)

I remember that Nexus One has some problem displaying HSDPA icon.

That is what i have though, maybe icon don't change correctly when connection changed, it seems to be fast enough.

Yeah I think phh is right.

I remember Nexus One users said that there's no H icon in Froyo, only 3G but they said that 3G+ (HSDPA) still worked...

I've just tested speed with Speedtest.net

1.38Mb/s Download

&

0.26Mb/s Upload...

Im not sure if HSPDA is working, but I don't think these are HSDPA Speeds or I'm wrong?

1.29Mb/s is HSDPA Speeds

3G speeds peak at 384Kb/s

HSDPA is usually up to 3.6Mb/s and can go up to 7.2Mb/s if your carrier supports it

Correct! I tested the download and the speed was 340 kilobytes/sec

Black Bar (thanks to ogdobber)

(mine is the porting of the second one. It has some problem, for example when you receive an SMS you can't read the text preview because is black on black)

So should I contact my service privider?

Should I claim for 7.2Mb/s?

My max is 1.4Mb/s

No you don't have to.

They say 7.2 mb/s but you probably won't ever download a file at those speed.

It's like when your internet provider say 28 or 100 MB/s I doubt you'll download at 100 MB by sec...

Just contacted my service provider and I was told that they support 3.5Mb/s max and they are currently upgrading to 7.2Mb/s...

I will try the speed from another location later..

I don't know where to find it...

Is possible to have a stream lock screen on froyo? I think it's cool.

Alright, just reflashed to test the new boot images, and they even solved the problem I had with my app :)

Some results:

Version, Result, before/after, frequency improvement

Linpack:

Before: 5.3MFLOPS

768MHz: 31MFLOPS 5.8x

998MHz: 41MFLOPS 7.7x, 1.3x

aPrime, 0-100k: (my own app)

Before: 648ms

768MHz: 256ms 2.5x

998MHz: 196ms 3.3x, 1.3x

So results are pretty consistent, looks like my app doesn't like the JIT compiler as much as linpack, but still quite an improvement right?

Funny how the higher frequency instantly improves performance and seems linear as well (1.3x higher frequency also equals 1.3 times higher performance in both apps).

Oh man I don't want to go back to eclair :)

Sadly have to, don't have a data plan and I really don't like financing my phone carrier XD.

By the way, the default launcher runs so smooth without live wallpapers :)

EDIT: So phhroyo is now the official name? :)

I use launcher pro, it's my favourite, but i don't dislike stream launcher :)

I think PHHroyo can be the official name, can't we tell to PHH? It's his creature :)

I have tested my Liquid with Unlimited Data Plan

It can reach around 600KByte/s download and 250KBytes/s upload

It highly depends on your signal level and what connection used by the cell site.

e.g. If the cell site is just connected with a few E1 connection, it must be slow; else with Optical Fiber or Microwave, the performance will be much better.

Hi@all just a question i like froyo very much because its very fast but my phone gets very warm if i use it for a few minutes... it gets up to 45 c°? ! Is this normal or is it bad?

In additiin to that any idea when the grafic bug will be fixed?

These 2 issues are actually related to each other. 60% of battery is cnsumed by the screen, which is due to the screen bug (at least that is what I think).

Guest jayziac

Screen battery consumption is related to the LED backlight, which is related to the brightness setting. The graphic bug not likely a battery drain. The warmness may be due to the higher CPU frequency, even the stock 2.1 Eclair ROMs get warm after some time at 768 Mhz, and Froyo uses higher frequency than that.
