Dispelling the HSDPA myth on the AT&T Tilt. Apr 17 2008, 1:51 PM EDT For those of you that are using KaiserTweak to "enable" HSDPA on your AT&T Tilt, here is some clarification. AT&T specifically requested to disable the H icon for this device and to use the 3G icon instead. Microsoft had to make a specific AKU which allowed this. The disablement ONLY changes the icon. The radio works the same and so no data rates are changed or affected. There is not a way thru any registry setting or hack to change the radio. On the 8525, the most a user could do is lock the device to either a 2G or 3G network. That functionality was removed in the ATT Tilt/8925/Kaiser per ATT’s request. So, there is nothing an end user can do with any hacks to change the radio stack/performance. KaiserTweak is fabulous, I use it myself but it doesnt change anything with the HSDPA capabilites of the device. 1 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |

RE: Dispelling the HSDPA myth on the AT&T Tilt.

I have the 10 button comm manager on my Tilt and it works nicely in saving the battery life as 3G can eat up battery life. Do you find this valuable? |

RE: Dispelling the HSDPA myth on the AT&T Tilt. May 4 2008, 10:59 AM EDT I would like to disagreee here. Yes on the TILT you will notice no difference due to the speed of the processor, but tethered to your PC as a modem you will see A HUGE DIFFEREBNE. Under 3G I an run at 396Kbs max. 1 minute later after turning on the HSDPA and restarting, i can run 990Kbs. Just to make sure it was not a fluke I turned it off again and restarted. back on 3G it is the same 396kbs. So turn on the HSDPA and enjoy the bandwidth. Do you find this valuable? |
