That's what I recommended they do in the PM they sent me. I also "warned" them that they'd be stuck w/ Edge speeds.
i''ve checked the apn configuration .. it's fine but still doesn't work. any other solution?

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

Hi guys,
I've got my phone back after repair (they did a boardswap because of broken emmc chip.). Everything seemed fine, but it couldn't connect to mobile internet. I saw that there weren't any APN settings so I called Vodafone and they gave me the right settings. After configured everything correctly it could connect, but it only could connect sometimes and if it did it was only G or E connection.
I'm currently running MIUI rom and with it you can easily configure it that it only uses 2G network. While using this internet ALWAYS works. When using 3G preferred, internet barely works.
So is there an option I am not seeing or did they give me a broken motherboard (and is there way to check this)?
Help would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds like its only configured to use 2G, so on a Stock (sense) ROM like mine you would need to set the
Settings->Wireless & network->Mobile networks->Network Mode = GSM/WCDMA auto
Otherwise you could try the debug mode by typing this into your PHONE *#*#4636#*#* the full number which should take the phone into debug mode where you find similar settings
Thanks for your reply! I'm using the settings you recommended and have set my *#*#4636#*#* to wcmda preferred but stil no succes. internet only works with GSM only but only 2g...

Are you sure that your network are not having a problem with 3g themselves?
can you use another phone, same network to prove that the 3g network in your area is working correctly?
Otherwise sounds like an APN issue? could you take it into a vodafone shop?
Have you tried a Hard reset and clean new setup?
I have perfect connectivity using the same SIM on my xperia x1. Hard resetting doesn't seem to do the trick. I think i'll take it to the vodafone shop (don't hope i need to send it in for repair AGAIN)
Thanks for your help anyway!

It may have come back with old stock/unsuitable radio. Tried changing that?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
The radio was the correct one, BUT it seemed to have fixed the problem itself... I was in the Vodafone shop and I was explaining the problem and there it was doing it correctly... Quite emberassing but i'm glad i've got a fully working phone.
Hi All,
I took unlocked phone HTC Inspire 4G from AT&T. I recently updated to Andriod version 2.3.3. I am not able to find Network type selection like GSM/WCDMA etc.. under Mobile network because of this I am not getting 3G speeds even 3G is enabled on my phone.
It is showing 'E' icon on the phone instead of 'H'.
When contacted HTC they are telling that the device built in a way that it selects 2G/3G based on the availability but it is not showing 3G even though it is available.
The device is not yet rooted. Is there any way to get this option without rooting device?
Thanks in advance,
Vamsi
If you don't have that option here:
homescreen > menu button > settings > wireless & networks > mobile networks > network mode
then you are not in a 3G area.
I have a feeling this has to do with hardware frequencies. This is me just guessing. You bought an unlocked inspire to use on a different carrier. If your in the us with tmo your stuck on edge. If your using this phone outside northamerica your stuck on edge. The rest of the world uses different frequencies. No way to change it unless you change phones
Have u tried dialing *#*#4636#*#* & choosing the option that way?

Are you having network problems? eg Generic Network Failure. or problems with MMS?
Using *#*#4636#*#* did not help to set network mode on HTC Inspire 4g

Hi, I tried this option and set the network mode to "GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)". I turned off and turned on the radio also. I even tried a restart of the device ( HTC Inspire 4g ATT ). But I still get connected to 2G networks only
Can you please help if there is any other way out ? Did anyone get to resolve this issue ?

Hey Sensation community !
Since 2 days my mobile network stopped working, I tried ALOT of "solutions" which I found here but all of them didn't help at all...I even flashed a new rom + fireware, radio, etc...
I used the search function before I started this thread but I only found little threads with like 3-5 replys and they weren't even usefull - even outdated.
So to be more detailed, my mobile network icon pops up nomally after turning it ON but only the upload arrow is filled which means if I open the browser or any app it won't work cause there's actually no connection to the internet.
I checked my APN which is fine. Most of the people say : Fix your APN and it should be fine. - Great -_-
Phone informations:
HTC Sensation
ROM: Android Revolution HD 6.7.2 by mike1986
Adroid 4.0.3
HTC Sense 3.6
I'd appreciate it if somebody could help me fixing this annyoing issue.
If you need some more details about the phone let me know

Nope, as I said, I even wiped my phone new rom, new firmware, new radio and new kernel.
I'm having the same issue, flashed cm9 last night, everything was fine and working then this afternoon at about 2 my phone says no service. I put the sum card in a different phone and it still didn't work. I'm T-Mobile UK but phone is normally connected to T-Mobile/orange network

Check your settings under Network/Connection settings and see if it's set to the correct network mode.

They all fine.
One more thing to say.
If I'm using "GSM only" the internet works but it's hekka slow -_- As soon as I switch to GSM / WCDMA auto "H" shows up only with the upload arrow on and the internet stops working.
Guess nobody knows how to fix this crap.... :/
I tried putting the sim in a different phone and it still didn't work. Might be a sim card issue or Tmobile are having trouble, for me anyway

Did you call your phone company?
I spent 4 days trying to diagnose this same kind of issue once only to find out that my data plan had been accidentally deleted from my account.
2 minute phone call and everything was working again.

As I thought my problem was with my network provider. The phone seems to have reconnected to the network and I am receiving texts and calls again. Hope you get your issue sorted.

I can be pretty sure it's not the SIM cause I tested it on a UMTS/HSDPA Surf-stick and the internet works with it. It has to be the phone itself.

Which kind of tethering ?>_> I wanna fix this already :///
Tell me what you're doing to make your "H" network work.
I meant WiFi thethering. My mobile network works only, if i use it for WiFi tethering. As long as i use the mobile network only on the phone, it doesn't work...

Hi guys, I have problem with my network connection also my 3g does not work anymore, I was playing with my phone with some secret codes like a ##72786# on my epic 4g touch sprint phone flashed to metro pcs and now I have no 3G service. In the setting menu under network status say Sprint. How can I get my 3g back?. The mobile net. 3G is on and the wifi is off. I need to change the network to metro pcs in the status setting and how can do that? Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad English.
Running ICS OS.
Can you re register your network by scanning network operators? If not you will need to Google APN settings for your network.
