Faster 3g Mod.

golfer1231 · March 8th, 2011, 12:05 PM

Can some tell me how to do the Faster 3g mod for the Transform. Im rooted with 2.2.

speeder760 · March 8th, 2011, 03:34 PM

1. Get your MSL, There are many ways, call Sprint, Download the app MSL Reader from the market (didn't work for me), CDMA workshop, connectbot, or alogcat
1.5. In connectbot, type:
Code: [Select]
su
getprop
Find [ril.MSL] and write MSL down
1.5.2. For alogcat (from the market), follow steps 2 and 3 and click ok. It will way "code invalid". Then open alogcat, pause the log and do a filter search for "msl", you're looking for a six digit number. Mine was in black text.
2. After you have your MSL go to your phone and type ##3282#
3. Click Edit
4. Type MSL
5. Click Others
6. Click Multimedia
7. Change RTSP Proxy Address to 0.0.0.0
8. Change RTSP Proxy Port to 0
9. Change HTTP PD Proxy Address to 0.0.0.0
10. Change HTTP PD Proxy Port to 0
Note on 8 and 10: Just the number zero, nothing else.

How much faster is 3G with this mod? Any real increase?

speeder760 · March 8th, 2011, 07:13 PM

Well i went from about 600-700 kbps download speed to about 1-1.5 mbps.

I'm assuming step 7 needs to look like this 0.0.0.0, right?

speeder760 · March 8th, 2011, 07:50 PM

Yes lol, ill go fix that

shadow22 · March 8th, 2011, 08:48 PM

Must your phone be rooted to do this?

speeder760 · March 8th, 2011, 09:06 PM

The only part that requires root is getting your msl.
But a way to get around it is by calling sprint and asking them what it is.

golfer1231 · March 9th, 2011, 08:38 AM

Thanks Speeder760

twistedsense · March 9th, 2011, 09:10 AM

Thanks for the guide speeder760. And thanks to rawdog2000 and quadanar that too.

speeder760 · March 9th, 2011, 01:00 PM

when i use connectbot it says to put host name ? what do i put ?

Cooper271 · April 20th, 2011, 06:37 AM

You put the IP address of your phone I believe. At least, that's how WinSCP worked..... I'd personally do step 1.5.2 Much easier

nstg8r · April 20th, 2011, 06:42 AM

calling sprint was the easiest for me

twistedsense · April 26th, 2011, 11:35 PM

So will flashing different ROMs change these values? Or do they stay the same no matter what? I ask because I currently have Platium EB28 ROm and I cant get back into the ##3282# menu. It refuses to go there. I type it and after typing the last # the numbers just go away and i am not reroutedd anywhere.

frenchconnect · May 23rd, 2011, 06:02 PM

ok im in alogcat..u say a 6 digit num. in black?....i see two different 8 digit numbers in black.. & a 4 four digit in green but no 6 digit number...which is the msl?
the numbers look like this:
black=45b8f400 & 45bd9088..........green=2186

lilparker2009 · May 23rd, 2011, 07:43 PM

I wouldn't if I was u it actually made my 3g slower

twistedsense · May 24th, 2011, 04:26 PM

I made the changes but wanted to go back in there and cant. The ##3282# is not working since I did it. Using vampirefo's EXT recovery, 2.0.9 kernel and platinum Rom. Any ideas?

lilparker2009 · May 25th, 2011, 03:03 PM

What do u mean its not working?

twistedsense · May 25th, 2011, 03:44 PM

I made the original changes as mentioned by speeder760. It seems faster to me but I wanted to revert to the original settings again to test it more. However when I enter ##3282# nothing happens. It literally disappears from the screen.

After I entered the incorrect code once, the ##3282# feature locked up for me. It unlocked as soon as I rebooted the phone.

eplanajr · December 1st, 2011, 03:32 PM

Thanks guys for this.
Before: 299 Kbps UP / 533 Kbps DOWN
After: 408 Kbps UP / 805 Kbps DOWN

That's with 3-4 bars of signal.

sr17091 · January 15th, 2012, 10:33 PM

will this also work for the transform ultra?

JFss76 · June 12th, 2012, 03:54 PM

Nice it worked on my Samsung transformers for boost mobile. Thanks
