Yes philly, its true... for example im downloading apps 4gb(GRID™) some time its killing my time. I dont have any problem with cellular. My wifi speed just 2-3mbps.. and on cellular just aprox. 4-7mbps. User uploaded file

Wow. The 5-minute figure that I gave you is with a 100 MByte download speed. If you're at 2-3 MB speed, the two hour time frame makes sense.


Not claiming that it makes that much difference but you posted an image with double the rate indicated in your text. Is the image for cellular download?


In any case, you're still hurting by the fact that you're in a small minority.

The vast majority of users pay for cellular data while WiFi data transfer is free. This restriction protects them from mistakenly spending money. Unfortunately for you, you're in a small minority.


Two hours for WiFi download? I've never been to Malaysia but that figure sounds incorrect. I use WiFi and it's never taken me more than roughly five minutes for the download itself and several more minutes for the installation (communication not needed)
