is it possible to root your HTC Inspire and use it with T-mobile with their 4g Speed or will it only be running on EDGE?
Just rooting has no influence on data speed or connectivity.
I just rooted my inspire and i'm using it T-mobile but the data its only running on EDGE and not 4g. I'm trying to find any post that addresses this issue and i cant find any. So IDK if i did something wrong thats only giving me EDGE or is just not possible.
Well, was it running on 4g before you rooted it?
If so, how did you root it?

Hi XDA Armies,
I've recently purchased a mytouch 4G and i've been told to root my phone. I have no idea what the heck this means and I have know idea which software to choose as far as for rooting.
All that froyo yofro does not make any sense to me at all. Any mytouch 4G user other could tell me which software you are using right now as far as rooting your phone goes?
What are the advantages of rooting your phone?
i have a question i just bought a htc inspire and was wondering if i get it unlocked would it work correctly on t mobile or simple mobile i heard the band is different but if it is att just like the iphones once it is unlocked everything should work fine can anyone help me answer that queston?
phone will work but not 3g, you will get edge instead. simple mobile has same band as tmobile for 3g
ok what is edge is it slower than 3g?

Yes, EDGE is 2G.
ok will all the other phone features work?
Yea it should
2g with full internet pages is pretty slow though, takes forever to load anything, sending email and stuff like that should be fine but u can scratch watching youtube videos without waiting awhile
ok i have a samsung galaxy s at&t phone will the inspire work the same as the galaxy s?
also is the galaxy s at&t pnone on the same band as the htc inspire?
so would it be better if i used a iphone 4 unlocked with simple mobile?
als ocan you assist me in getting my htc inspire unlocked??????
hi,
please help if you can. i was thinking about getting htc inspire 4g from radio shack and would like to use simple mobile as my carrier. i understand that the phone has to be unlocked and GSM. my question is once it's unlocked do i need to change the access name point(apn) on the phone in order to use the internet?
thank you
anyone using Motorola Htc Inspire on Simple Moblile? any problem with internet ? do they "throttle" your usage?
Any AT&T phone on T-Mobile service will run on edge, doesn't matter which phone you use.

I dont think they throttle it. i havent noticed any change.
I just got a Nexus S 4G today. converted from ATT to Sprint.
I use a Clearwire internetmobile usb also.
Stock, my 4g worked in and outside my house, great. I have experience rooting many phones and flashing many roms for friends family and myself, but never played with 4g.
I rooted with oneclick root in the 4g dev section, and used the rom cm7 from the same section. everything works great except it no longer picks up or finds the 4g connection. my clear finds it and they are the same wimax.
is there any reason why it doesnt work, or some sort of workaround?
Sprint Nexus S 4g.
Hey everyone, I have a Tmo Sensation 4g. I took all the proper steps to root the phone and wiped my stock rom off before flashing the Android Revolution 3.3 HD rom as well as changed to the radio that he recommended. However, it seems that my 4g is not available. Prior to flashing I had 4g nearly everywhere and now I only have 3g. Anyone have the same problem? Is there a fix?

Should post in Q&A but check the area that talks about RIL's and install the one that is ends in 169. I don't have any problems with my TMUSA sensation with this rom and also check if you get the H that is also a symbol for 4G
Thank you for the assistance, but where do I find this section about RIL's? I cant seem to see that term.

hehe.. This is because T-Mobile lies and puts a 4G icon when you have 3G.
Don't be dumb, this is not development. Your phone is 4G, 4G is 3g but it's just tmobile advertising there 4th generation connection. You get faster download speeds on 4G but on euro build roms they only have 3g. You should get a H logo when you are using data such as downloading, browsing the Internet ect. Which H stands for hsap + which is 4G. Sorry to be so mean it's just a very old topic just should of been posted in q and a not here.

Seriously, the 4g icon and the H icon, are just that.. Icons used to represent your data speed. It is not your actual data speed. If I wanted to I can create a mod that will replace the icon to Edge to represent 4G speeds, but it won't mean I'll be on edge.
Hey I have a question, the guy who flashed my nexus s to boost said he can do the same thing with an evo 4g, but he would be able to get 4g on the evo. I think he said he could get a partition for it? I have no idea what he was talking about so pardon me if i said something wrong, but does anyone know of a way to get 4g on the nexus s through boost? If not, is boost getting 4g anytime soon ever?
I remember reading a thread that said that if the account that the phone was on before the phone was flashed is still active then the WiMax keys should still work to connect to Sprint for 4G. I'm not 100% on this though, I don't believe Boost has their own 4G network.
i see. do you have that thread? yeah boost doesnt have 4g.
This is the post I was referring to
