I'm sure you are not getting throttled Jarvis. On Average I use 15x the amount of data you do. I have never been throttled.

Lopez... the op never responded to our questions. Then Jarvis chimed in, and I responded to him. You must be special huh, because it seems you are having a hard time reading four posts. Excuse me five.....

where in the op did he asked you how much data YOU used?? do you even read english?

-------------------------im done going down to your level, you beat me with experience------------------

back on topic

i believe if i remember correctly that with the steps on post #11 it will cause a FC if you go back into the mobile networks settings. correct me if i am wrong.

The irony

He didn't ASK me about data, and I didn't tell him. I was talking to Jarvis. I don't have to quote everything. Cmon Lopez... we don't even need you on this thread. Go eat some tacos or something.

I average roughly 10gb per month and I live in a small rural city. Seems like once I go over 5gb of data my 3g slows way down. Just ran a speed test and I'm only getting .2mbs, I get around 1mbs at the beginning of my bill cycle. Flashed a no throttle zip for gingerbread that I found last night that did pretty much what syndicate posted and I haven't noticed any difference, still getting a measly .2mbs.

Verizon throttles from the server side, not from our phones. So its not possible to get around getting throttled?

From what I know when Verizon throttles a subscriber it is written on the bill somewhere that they meet the three criteria for being throttled. Also, when Verizon does throttle a subscriber its for the rest of the billing cycle plus the entire next billi.g cycle.

Do you have a link or source to your info about them throttling your next billing cycle to? I would like to read up on it. Is it 100% that they determine to throttle you if your in the top 5%? Or could it be a cap that you reach and then get throttled .

I'm not at work so I dont have access to the Verizon knowledgebanks right now. I'm just going off what I remember from training. I do know for a fact that in order to get throttled you have to be In the top 5%, on an unlimited 3g plan and connecting to a congested tower.

Ahh cool I was just wondering I download movies at work every once and awhile and I think I might have been put in that 5% before.

I do agree it seems logical that it would be throttled from Verizon's end and not on the phone. Although I would love to do the no-throttle hack if it.did work.

I am on a prepaid plan with the 30$ unlimited data the Guy at the Verizon store told me that the prepaid plans truly are unlimited is that true? I am sure I can still be throttled on prepaid I was just wondering if that guy was just b/s'ing me about being truly unlimited.
