Boost That "3g" Speed on Your S-hiny Nexus One
It seems like some nice folks over at jk-on the run (I have no idea how to write it out) have figured out a temporary fix for ailing 3g stability on the brand new, Nexus One. Everyone can walk their way over to the JK article and run through the steps or you can walk through the much easier, numbered steps below.
- Head over to "Settings" in the application menu.
- Click on "Wireless & networks"
- Scroll almost to the bottom of the menu and click on "Mobile Networks"
- Your phone should go into a search mode looking for the nearby GSM networks.
- When this completes look for the option that reads "Select Automatically" and select it.
- Pat your back...and your crotch if you feel so inclined.
That is it! There have been some mixed reactions for everyone who has gone through the process. Some people see constant 3g connections, faster 3g upload / download speeds and even more 3g 'bars.' Looking back through the method it seems that the phone is set to search ONLY for one cellular band which is peculiar. However please remind yourself, all of these phones are unlocked from the factory, meaning T-Mobile doesn't set specific settings to improve reception. Good luck and make sure to comment up if this little hack actually works...or doesn't.
