Really sow USB transfer speeds topic

So I always transfer my whatsapp folder from one phone to the next and then have everything restore.

The folder is about 650mb and transferring to my samsung s5 took about 2-3 minutes but for some reason it is taking 2.30 hours! on the Motorola Droid Turbo (I have the gsm version called moto maxx).

What exactly am I doing wrong? It should not take almost 3 hours to transfer 650mb of files to a phone via USB 2.0

[Q] Fix for D800 LTE speeds on T-Mobile (in MIA)? topic

My question, for the story below. I think I did something good, did I do something bad?

I bought a brand new D800 on eBay for use on T-Mobile in the MIAMI market. I fished around in the service menu from the stock rom, and did the following:

• Dialer -> 3845#*800#


• LTE Only -> Modem Settings -> LTE Band Selection


• Select Bands 2, 4, 5, and 17 (based on info from wikipedia for D800)


• Back out to main service menu


• LTE Only -> Modem Settings -> LTE-A CA Setting


• Choose CA Enable / SupportedBandCombination All-enable


• Choose Restart Now

Before I did this, my Speedtest.net results were odd and a bit upside down looking. The downloads were in the 5Mb/s area, and uploads more in the 7-9Mb/s. Naturally I thought that was odd but passed it off as the weirdness of having an AT&T phone on T-Mobile.

After my fiddling, the speeds were dramatically different. I was looking at 10-15 (one night, 20) Mb/s down, and 6-10 Mb/s up.

I did this fiddling because I found the service menu when looking to fix a touch firmware issue. I DID NOT do this because I knew what I was doing. I just figured I'd be able to reset if I messed things up bad enough. I'm not even sure which of the above two things did the trick.

So, did I unwittingly do something really dumb/bad?

Unlocked Sprint LS980 G2 SLOW data speeds on Tmobile service topic

Good Morning and thanks in advance. I have a Sprint LG LS980 that I unlocked and i'm using it on Tmobile prepaid 4G () plan. The data speeds however are extremely slow. Like I barely get over 3 Mbps Up or Down. I'm no stranger to flashing, adb and i've read the FAQs and whatnot on the G2 but cannot find a specific issue of data being slow. Is this a network issue or is there a radio I need to flash, or setting I need to change to make this work correctly. It doesn't appear that I'm getting 4g LTE although I'm not entirely sure that the G2 has the frequency for it. I have troubleshooted this issue with tmobile in store folks as well as customer technical support and their answer in the end is always "It's a sprint phone so it's not designed to work on tmobile" Please point me in the right direction. Thanks.
