    Slow 3g

    Is any one else's 3g running insanely slow? if so, do you know any ways to fix this.

    Are you in an area that could be experiencing heavy usage on the tower your currently bouncing off of?

    Have you tried power cycling your phone?

    I Have tried restarting the phone, and it seems to be the entire city not just a select couple of towers

    Seems to be a network issue then. Call and get a ticket going on it with vzw, do you have speed test? It does 3g, see what your speeds are, and tell the cs rep

    If I call them will the fact that I'm rooted cause problems?

    I really don't think so. If I'm wrong then someone correct me. Lots of people have rooted phones and get them warrantied, so I don't think they can tell. Unless they see it firsthand
