[Q] 4G Speed - HTC Inspire 4G

I rooted the phone and without a custom rom i get the h+ with the check mark. But I get no connection.
So I tried to install a custom mod and now i dont get the 4g speed i get an h with an up down arrow but I can connect to internet.
Can anyone help me. Please

Make sure the battery cover and sd card/sim card cover it on. Check settings>wireless and networks> mobile networks, and check your apn settings.
the h or h+ is irrelevant.

rooting procedure breaks the h+ connection. known fact. cm7 speedtest=.62 megabits down. .12 up. stock s on in same spot= 2.30 megabits down. .76 up.

Then there is something wrong with your flash. CM7 gets me the exact same speeds as any sense ROM.
Custom ROMs do NOT have the h+ icon. That is all it is. You may have to edit build.prop to get the 14.4mbit connectivity back. But no towers can even go near that fast right now.

This man speaks da truff.

Yup. LeeDroid's rom shows 3G for HSPA, and H for HSPA+, from what I can tell. I've had it cycle through the icons after a reboot. I haven't messed with a rom yet that had the H+ icon.

I just got 1514k / 1321k using the Gingerbread version of Android Revolution. Mine only shows an "H" icon.

Which rooting procedure did you use? I used bubbys and my download speeds are way slower.

While I know you weren't asking me, I too used Bubby's tool and my speeds are as fast as can be expected based on the time of day. I've seen as high as 3.79dn and 1.5up.
Dl Prop Editor from market and see what your settings are in build.prop.

I personally used the hack kit before bubby's came out.

Custom ROMs tend to remove the H+ icon, so all you will see is an H.
The speed varies on some ROMs. Edit your build.prop and reboot twice, and you should be good to go. I got 2.5ish on stock ROM, I get 5+ now.
GL!

I know mine varies all the time depening on the time of day. Used bubbys on 3.5 rev rom and have seen 4.6 and 1.9.. it varies though

Waiting on the new gb we will see what speeds we get there

yeah i just noticed this yesterday when i was on wifi at my house. but it will give u the best performance using wifi. but i saw some videos going against the iphone 4 and evo 4g and they always use wifi so i left a comment letting them know to make sure that is turned on so it would be a fair match up even though the mytouch 4g beat the iphone 4 and evo at pretty much everything lol.

I did notice the speeds are not 100% all the time, they jump from 2 - 6 Mbps depending on time of day / weather / and everything else but knowing the phone "can hit 6" makes me feel better about "when AT&T" gets everything going it *should* be pretty fast

There is no need to be telling people this. The "WCDMA Preferred" setting will automatically lock onto WCDMA towers if they are in your area, and still allow your phone to connect to other network types. If you configure your phone to "WCDMA Only" and you travel outside of a WCDMA area, guess what happens to your connection? These are called MOBILE phones for a reason, and people do travel with them.
Yep, no need for this. Check out my sig pic.

Not yet, but I have for the Thunderbolt when I set my friend's up. Good lord. I can't wait for LTE on AT&T. Imagine not having to fall back on CDMA's 1-2mbit, and being able to go from 15mbit on LTE to 8-10 on HSPA+. That will be, as the Russians say, Epic Win.

[REQUEST] 4G icon to replace CM7 "H" Icon

I'd like to request a 4G icon to replace the H icon in CM7. I've seen it for the Mytouch 4G but the theme won't flash.
Any help on this would be greatly appriciated.
Why? it's not 4g anyways.it's "enhanced 3g". if you want 4g, switch carriers.

Sent from my HTC vision using XDA App
I'm not 100% on this, but I'm pretty sure if you make it so it uses 4G instead of H it'll display 4G when you are connected to 3G. It's just the way CM7 works since they are HSPA and HSPA+. My theme has separate 3g, H and 4G icons, but the phone always uses H no matter if I'm connected to 3G or HSPA+ (At least I can't remember ever seeing a 3G icon). But if you want to, the png files are in the SystemUI.apk under /res/drawable-hdpi/, and you can rename and drag & drop the png files no problem. No resigning or anything required since it's a system app.

Yea 4G and 3G are the same on Tmobile. That's why on stock you go from 2G to 4G. We don't even have 4G in my area even though it says its connected to 4G.
Kinda silly if you ask me but for this to work, you would basically replace the "H" icon with a "4G" icon.

[Q] Network upgraded to 4G but I only get H

hey there I/'m living in St. Kitts in the Caribbean.
LIME the network provider upgraded from EDGE to 4g on Friday, but I realise since then my phone is only showing H (3G) and not H+(4G).
i am wondering if this has anything to do with the rom i'm currently running (trickdroid) or not?
I was in the city centre friday night where they had the launch and pretty close to the cell tower so I know distance isn't the issue
Thanks for the help in advance
Most roms don't display the +. Its purely cosmetic. Only roms I know that display it are based on the inspire 3.20 version.
Again its purely cosmetic and does not effect speed. Heck the phone is only capable of 14mbs Max. I would say 3.5 g Max
Thanks for the response I was just wondering. Makes sense with what you are saying. And I just realise something I tried another Rom, it wasn't even loading so had to restor this on and realised that while booting up it went from E to 3G to H. But I don't think I'm getting even 2 mb from this will take a screen shot and post to you.thx again for the response.

Depending on what ROM you're using, I've found Speedtest to be somewhat unreliable for whatever reason. For example, I'm running Sabsa Prime 7.0. When I do a test on wifi, I get 15+mbps down and around 4mbps up with 30 ping. When I run it on 4g, I get 7kbps down and 2mbps up with 150 ping. Obviously my actual 4g speeds are not 7kbps. On ARHD with the same radio the test showed 6-8mbps down and 3.5mbps up with 70 ping.
In summary, unless you feel that your real use speed is really that slow, forget what Speedtest says.
Ok cool got you.
But I can tell it's really slow as well. I will try one of those other rims cause this one iy takes a while to switch to programs etc. And I don't have a lot running in the background. The only thing I've realise though is that I've not yet learned how to bring over my settings ( WiFi and apn etc even my contacts ) when going from one Rom.to the the next.

Actually...
If you edit your build.prop, faster speeds can be obtained.
Also H+ is 4G, but its not like LTE speeds or anywhere close. It is more like a couple mbs above 3G.
Speedtest is fine. Your data icon will sometimes lie to you. No joke. It'll say H+, but in reality it is 3G. All depends on your signal strength.
- hit my thanks button if i helped you -
Thanks, how do I edit my build?
I am not sure what's going on it is.very slow and I am wondering if the Rom is the problem wondering if I should go back to the original 4g Rom that came with the phone

You'll need an app like "Root Explorer". Through the app you navigate to "/system" and long press the "build.prop" and edit. You may encounter an error message with something like "file is in read-only" which then you will have to change the settings to "write only" or something like that to edit which can be done in the explorer app. Once you get that far you can edit the build.prop to your liking. For settings that people have found useful search the forums.
