Tested Moto phone
MB870
Mod 1 "may" work on any other 3G phones, mod 2 when posted "may" work on other 3G MOTO phones.
---------------------------------------------------------
Mod 1
The Problem:
Since I do not have internet at home and I live in a poor service area any increase in 3G data speeds I can get is beneficial. So, I started looking into a way to increase my 3G data speeds.
Please let me know what rom you are using when you post something
Note: The first boot I did on some of these took a few minutes for 3G to first come up. Any reboots later it showed up immediately. I had no service issue and triangle once or twice while I was checking all of these. Reboot always fixed it.
The Solution:
First, nandroid backup prior to changing anything on your phone is a good policy to follow.
Most of the build.prop edits I’ve found are for GSM phones. I did find one thing that might help. I have confirmation from another source this häçk works for them as well.
The line to be edited in build.prop which is in your /system/ folder by root explorer, root browser or any other editor/method of choice (make sure you backup your build.prop first):
Code:
persist.ril.uart.flowctrl=1
Change the “1” to “10”, save your build.prop, and reboot.
You can change the 1 to 1-10 and null or blank.
These are my results below in kb/s.
1=baseline 75-100 kb/s
0= no service – Don’t do this!
2-5 = 100 kb/s with some temp increases
6-9 = 150-200 kb/s
10 = 250-350 kb/s
A null value gives me 150-300 kb/s with large fluctuations.
I found that “10” gave me the best speed with most consistent results.
These speeds were clocked in actual large file downloads not a speed testing app.
I found that speed testing apps do not give accurate results. The real downloading gives real results.
Note: With this a tester was getting 500kb/s downloading a rom over 3G.
Please reply back with any results you find as I am looking for conformation of my findings.
If you try this in a different ROM please let me know your findings as well. This SHOULD work in any rooted X2.
Doesn't work on liberty for the moment. Gonna attempt it on fully stock liberty soon

Mod 2 - May help with connection stability. Not speed.
Easy build.prop addtion
In a fike manager such as root browser and root manager got to /system/ and open your build.prop to edit.
Add the following line.
Code:
ro.mot.eri.losalert.delay=
The standard mod for this us 1000. Feel free to play around with it.
For rooted phone only
I hope it works in your device...
