does the rom really matter? i thought only the radio does?
btw. im on bamf 4.9, i get about 12-13 on speedtest app, but 30 mbps on speakeasy.net
the rom itself does not really matter. what matters is radio connectivity, and what mirror you're using/where the mirror is (if you're gauging the speeds thru something like speedtest.net).
OP - i would try a different radio, preferably the OFFICIAL OTA MR2 and if that's the one you were using, i would try the other two to see if they work better,
Also, verizon's been working on towers lately, so it could just be a fluke/bad night for your radio connection. wait a day or two and see what happens???? that's what i would do.
otherwise try the other radios.
