Hey guys, for the past month or so my data has been pulling in at 1x speed. I've reflashed and wiped my device and even switched between touched based ROMs and aosp with no results. I live in Queens new York so I'm just wondering whether it's the result of the merger or location. Is anyone else having similar? Or is an apn switch in order?

Thanks

im not sure what rom your using at the moment, but when ever i've had connectivity issues in the past i would just flash a different modem and it seemed to work. one time i had to call metro and have them send a refresh signal to my phone.

Currently on carbon. Do you suggest I flash a new modem? Of so which one?
