Hello every one my name is Mike S.
I am the owner of a site called PremiumReview, i do reviews on Android base phones and other little things.
I'm looking to get a new Android phone I REALLY want the HTC Desire. But a few things its only available at telus and im on rogers(that's easy solvable, get it unlocked).
the biggest problem i am having is the telus does not have a EDGE/GSM network and only a CDMA/GSM. So I can load the phone up fine it will connect to rogers 3G network but if i get out of coverage of rogers 3G it loses all signal because the telus ROM on the phone doesn't know to look for EDGE only CDMA(that rogers doesnt have). So my questions is
1)how can I make the phone see Rogers EDGE network? and I would like to keep the HTC Sence UI
2)Dose any one have a modified ROM that they could send me / that could possiably unlock it to possiably a paypal cash reward. Expacly if it unlocks it to
I just bought a HTC desire (telus brand) to use on the att network. Will I have the same problem?
I am now in Germany and I bought myseld a Sensation yesterday.
It is: Sim Free , Without contract but with only Vodafone branding (same as many of you )
Since I inserted my simcard into the Sensation, I did NOT see a single bar of 3G/HSDPA yet !!!
However I use the same card on my Incredible S, and I get full bar 3G/HSDPA almost everywhere, then I insert the car into my Sensation absolutely no 3G/HSPDA and therefore I can not read my e-mails, my weather won`t update etc etc.
Could this be because I am roaming at the moment ? Anybody have similar issues, this is for sure Phone related as the same simcard works on my Inc S perfectly well.
I am suspecting the firmware of Vodafone has a BUG on 3G/HSDPA when roaming !!! any of you get 3G when roaming on your Sensation ?
Had the same type of problem and resolve it creating a new apn in settings. My operator wasn't recognise fine by the phone (gsm ok but no data) : virgin mobile France (virtual operator from Orange France).
For apn data you can probably found it on your operator website.
Don't know if this is really your problem but just in case ...

Bravo !!
You are clever, because this is a brand new phone and I bought it while i was abroad (roaming) my new sensation did not get the apn setting from my provider automatically. So once manually activating it , it works like a charm. Thank you.
Now all i need is S-OFF the sensation
@ ikhzter just saw your post too
I'd be willing to try this. Would either of you happen to know how to add a new APN? And also, what settings should I put in for T-Mobile US? I can only get Edge speeds, too. I have tried everything else it seems, so this couldn't hurt lol

I think it's not possible because EU Sensation doesn't have AWS band. At least GSMArena says so. I heard people saying EU Sensation also has AWS band so I'm not really sure.

Check your mode, if u are in GSM its normal, use GSM/WDCA Mode... If don't work create new APN

I bought the htc sensation and unlocked it for use for AT&T. I have roamed the entire web trying and testing different settings to get MMS working but nothing ever works. Does anyone know the proper settings for AT&T and will the sensation be able to use AT&T 3G ever???
No 3g for you! Ever! Hardware compatibility problem.
I bought a new HTC Inspire 4G on AT&T which i guess is known as htc hd or ace came back to England and unlocked it for my three network simcard, using the hack-ace tool. and installed the at&t gingerbread update. Then my service was basically NIL- emergency calls only, now i tried this rom :
RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.50.405.2_Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2_release_199042_signed.exe
Thought I would try an original rom and still worse no reception and only time i can even get a remote chance of a single reception bar is by turning it on n off and during power up it shows a bar or two then emergency calls only. did manage to make a call once but straight after about 40 seconds in - signal lost. wifi seems to be working, bluetooths fine, and the obvious mobile internet not even a byte transfered.
Any suggestions please please i thought it may be a radio problem but i used the 26.10.xx and the 26.09.xx and they both screwed me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Has anybody tried to put a AT&T GoPhone SIM card on a HTC Inspire 4g with a ICS asopx MOD?

I've never got a successful internet connection, except for wifi, and I'm wondering if you see anything that indicates a reliable connection 2g/3g/4g or otherwise with the ICS mod?
I've been looking at APN settings, but non of them seem to work:

I'm just wondering if anybody got a good 3g connection with the ICS asopX on HTC Inspire....and what is your APN Setting?
Try using settings from third link but instead of leaving apn type blank use "default,supl,mms"

I finally got it to work, but I had to do a clean install, that is factory wipe under recovery mode and reinstall MRI aospX MOD. Apparently I was just installing previous aospX mods without total wiping..........I didn't want to reinstall my apps over and over again. The APN's in the aospX MOD work with GoPhone account at HSPA+ speeds, so kinda 4G, but on a GoPhone SIM Card.
And AT&T will tell you that GoPhone does not support HTC Inspire 4g phones, so ignorance is bliss, Better off getting information off the web.
