1x instead of H or 3G? - T-Mobile LG G2x

Today I randomly saw 1x instead of H or 3G. Any body know what that means?? I went to the settings and under phone status and stuff it said the mobile network is unknown. My data still seems fairly fast. Anybody else ever see this? I'll try to upload a screen shot later

I've never had 1x... usually 2g,3g,4g or E, H and usually when I see unknown in my phone info I dont have any signal...

Which rom are you using?

I've had this happen to me before on a CM flash. Sometimes it could just be a bad flash that caused your phone to think it is a CDMA device so it is showing CDMA bars.

I'm on CM7, weird thing is, it started flip flopping between H and 1x. But it looks like it stopped now

1x, aka G, is the old, OLD cell phone internet from the 1990s. I've only ever seen it in rural areas and it is mind blowingly slow; speedtest came up with 9 kbps download speed. That is not a typo. It couldn't even get a rating on upload.

1X is slow CDMA internet. Never was on GSM systems. GSM slow internet was called WAP.

Here's a screen shot from when it was happening. Like I said I'm just confused haha it wasn't slow though. I was pulling about 1.5 Mbps down so I don't think it was G.

That's weird as ****... 1x is totally CDMA tech. Not sure why it would ever show up on your phone. I guess if you are still getting your 3G speeds, it's not a big deal. Totally interesting though.

Badly programmed custom rom?

4G Speeds of 1-2MBPS?

Running CM7 Test 4 on the new radio. Finally got 4G to switch on and stay on but my speeds are terribly low (0-2mbps). I believe im running REV A enabled per the advice of someone in the CM7 thread.. Any idea's? I was so happy to see that 4g icon light up but its still running like its on 3g.

It might be the network? I'm not saying it is but it's something to think about.

It would be helpful to know what area are you from. Could be network issue.
If you're in NYC the speeds should be normal.

I think it's something with cm7 and the recent 4g outage. Pretty sure slayher commented about it on his twitter. I'm sure it'll be fixed in an update soon.

For anyone interested it was the network. Rom works fine once its got a lock on 4g. Had it stable all day. Speeds shot back up without a reboot or anything

3g network

Hi everybody,
I guess its kinda silly question but what the heck:
I'm using our great phone outside of the US(Israel to be specific) and just got a new sim card yesterday that suppose to support 3g networks(my old one didn't).
The question is:How could I know if I'm on 3g network or 2g network...
I don't see ant notification for that on the stautus bar and didn't find a setting to enable that(beside the wcdma which is enabled)
Thanks
Alon
P.S - I forgot to mention that my provider(Orange) supports and provide 3g network
We don't have a 3g icon.

theres one there, it just RARELY shows itself. Mine has came on a few times on elevators. There was just a thread about this about a week ago. But most times unless your in a edge area it will show 4G. if you really want to know what your connected to go into settings>about phone>status, and it will tell you what your connected to
ok
thank you both

Yea, it is there, but rarely shows its face. I still haven't seen one, but have seen screen shots of it.

Yes, there is, but it also depends on your rom. Some may not have a 3g icon in it

I live in Wisconsin and am using Simple Mobile. I also rarely get the 3g symbol either but i have seen it on stock kb5,kc1, and kd1. I also can confirm the symbol in both the Bionix Roms.
On what ROM are you??
I'm on the Bionix Black Ice and I know I'm on a 3g network (for sure I can see it in the about phone section) but I still don't have that icon...weird...

There's nothing wrong with a battery pull. It's harmless.

ok thanks for posting man! When we have these problems we should call Verizon so they can know we have a problem in the city....because when I called they didnt know any problems going on in the city and couldn't do nothing for me they wanted me to do a hard reset. Everything is good now I am in the bronx now 3:04 Am was out drinking lol
I spoke to someone today about slow data since January and they told me that they're moving to Network Vision towers right now (3G/4G in one tower). She said they happen to be doing NY over the weekend, specifically Queens and Brooklyn. That might be it.
its gotten better.

lte network down?

Im just north of NYC and lost my 3g coverage, did a reboot and still nothing. I just switched to the old 3g and I have data again. Can anyone confirm if lte is down in any areas?
4g running fine in Cincinnati

I'm in NYC and on 3G... my speeds are pathetic right now. 0.18 Mbps down and 0.12 Mbps up...
On top of that, my battery is draining fast
I can't even catch 3g inside my building like I used to with my incredible. Antenna must be weaker or some ****

You using the stock battery cover or one from another manufacture? It's known that some non-OEM battery covers don't give the best connection to the antenna in the cover.

Hmm..I'm in Raleigh
Does seem to be working here, though.
My 4G works fine but my 3g is down pretty weird. I'm in socal though.

I am in Florida and I got no network. Just love it. I tend to wonder how good could LTE be once they complete their last wave of phones after the year. Its always up and down.

Pretty sure it is.

LTE turned on in Sacramento. Post your speeds/ROM/settings

Stock CM10 here with no settings tweaked. I was getting 16Mbps yesterday and am fluctuating between 12Mb and 46Mb today. (not sure what radio)
My phone's data connection is now quicker than my home and work combined :^\
Killer speeds in Roseville. Stock 2.20 rooted and debloated.

I wonder what these speeds look like in a week or so when all the LTE iPhones are in users' hands....
I wanna see that too I don't think it will have a big effect but that's just my opinion because most iOS users I know don't use their devices like I do I think it will have a big impact in San Fransisco every time I go out there all I see is I phones and iPad everywhere what's weird is I get about 10-15 download speeds when I'm I sf but from Oakland to Vallejo I get 30
