My speed definately increase from 200kbps to around 900kbps - 1.1 mb Download location: Los angeles

note I'm not responsible for bricking ur phone I've done this before and familiar with the software even though this quick tut should be noob friendly

Credit goes to Folks in the Admire forum. i just thought id make a tut with easy to follow steps and pics :)
 
does this actually work? & will it affect my rooted phone? i dont want this intefering with my MMS or my custom ROMS im using, but i would like a increase in speed. :)

It doesn't affect your ROM. It's a programming for the phone, which is beyond the ROM. I have done this on my Optimus M; I'm currently using reppard's CM7. I got a speed increase when I performed these steps.
