Not sure why that would be didn't do that on my phone with 3.6.1, 3.6.3 or 3.6.5 and 4.1.5, 4.1.6, 4.1.7

Before its doing ok bit I have to re flash the 3.6.2 Rom back coz I didn't like the newer versions so after that both of the shows up everytime, I did superwipe and re flashed Rom same thing.

I would maybe try the newest rom after you wipe your cache. It is by far the best one so far.
Did you flash any mods that may have caused this?

I would try the update first. Watch when the are both showing, is the WiFi signal low or showing no signal? That does happen when the WiFi signal becomes weak. Also make sure the mid you used is for the correct Rom.

Did you get rid of the Tmo bloatware? For me, I just force close the My Account app and the cell signal bars go away.

so i flashed the radio suggested by, malybru, and so far, its been good. i now get 3 bars where before i would've had 1 or no signal what so ever. i have realized that if i completely cover the top of the device, my wifi signal drops, this never happened before but who holds their phone like that lol.
how has your signal strength been since changing the radio? I have the same issue with my phone
my signal still isnt great but i do think the radio change has helped a little. and ive realised that my phones death grip is now gone, before holding the phone from the top would cause wifi signal to drop but not anymore

[Q] Signal low, need help.

Hey guys, my name is Steve I am a new member to XDA developers and I have the T-mobile HTC Sensation 4G, Android Version: 2.3.5, HTC Sense Version: 3.5, and i also put a ROM on it, the Digitalized_0.7, Unlocked. My current service provider is AT&T I only have 3G network with them now, so ever since I got the HTC Sensation after I rooted and unlocked the signal was poor, usually I get 2 maybe 3 bars Max. So do you guys have any idea how to fix this problem? If you do please let me know or give me info on how to fix.
Thanks,
Steve
I would suggest a different radio. There is a thread above yours about radios. Go check it out.

[Q] hspa connectivity issue

My XE connects to Hspa network and will give a good bandwidth around 5 mbps. But the system suddenly drop the speed to some 200 kbps, still showings the hspa connection..I always use wcdma connectivity. Anybody having the issue, know any remedies?
Guys anybody knows the solution, need help

First, I would flash a new RIL which you can find in the general thread (I believe). Flash the second to latest, where the latest is from the HTC Ville. It should fix it.

You can lock signal on hspa only
And it should keep it from going in and out. Press*#*#4636#*#* and a menu will pop up, go to phone information. Click on your current setting and another menu will come up from there you can lock on hspa only and then scroll down to refresh and your set. I use this because my signal switched too much between edge and 4 g. I wanted 4 g always not edge. It works for me. Wouldn't hurt to give it a try. its dependant on signal availability in your area. Best of luck. Hope it helps! Worked great for my issue.

No cellular data

Ok, after asking on various Rom threads to no avail I'm making a topic about it seeing as I'm not alone on this one...
I seem to have lost all cellular data. When I turn on mobile data I keep getting ' connection failed due to incorrect apn settings'
I have flashed different roms, re flashed current viper Rom, factory reset, full wiped, reset apn to default settings, even got a new sim from my service provider. My apn settings are correct, as have been confirmed by my service provider, I've updated radio and firmware...and still no mobile data.
Does anyone have the faintest idea what's going on?
Thanks guys.

Hi,
Have you tried deleting ALL your APN settings,rebooting,then,re-installing them?
Just tried your suggestion malybru, unfortunately it hasn't made any difference

I'm running viper too and when I upgraded to recommended radio this happened to me. I lost all data connection ! To restore my data I used one of the five(I believe it's 5) generic ics radio and matching ril. I got lucky first one I tried worked for me! I'm not exactly sure of your situation but it sounds very similar to what happened to me... You might want to try the generic ics radio with matching ril.it restored my data right away. You will have to do some searching to find it. But it's there. This just happened to me last week. I really hope this helps you! It worked for me... Best of luck.

this problem seems similar to the problem i faced recently ..i would have complete signal ..but no data
in my case ..if i change the network mode to GSM only ..i used to get Edge
the thing which caused this problem in my case is... loose sim ..yes the sim is loose ..and i kept a paper on top of sim to make it fit tight ...and voila problem solved ...just try this ..it might work
:fingers-crossed:
also check in phone testing that you are st to WCDMA preferred
from key pad *#*#4636#*#* phone settings - look for the only drop down box - hit it choose WCMDA preffered then home
I even lock on wdcma only by pressing *#*#4636#*#* and go to phone information press your current channel and another menu will come up, choose your desired channel from there then press refresh. My device kept going to edge sand it drove me crazy so I locked on wdcma only
And had no problem ever since. I now stay on H. I'm sure it depends on your area also but I've never lost signal doing it that way.

What carrier are you on? There are APN settings that maybe incorrect or just got corrupted when flashing a rom.

signal cuts in and out

i just flashed cm9 on my sensation and the signal keeps cuting in and out i tryed to mess with the network settings but i still dont get anything and i reflashed still samething
what should i do?
Okay a few things first...
When you say the signal cuts out...what signal do you mean? Cell, mobile data, or wifi? (Each has its own fixes)
Second, how long have you had the problem and did it start as soon as you first booted cm9? If it has just been a few hours and it worked on cm9 at one point, it could just be a network issue that is out of your hands.

Known issue in AOSP builds, wipe cache and dalvik-cache
Check your APN's.
If you have 2 or 3 to choose from, delete all but the one you actually need. You are on t mobile so assuming you do a normal monthly billing plan with a contract the correct apn is the one called t mobile-us. You may see one for simple mobile and something else too.
AOSP builds sometimes install multiple apn's at initial set up. Its usually not a problem for 98% of users as you are supposed to be able to pick 1 and have the others be ignored, but sometimes it doesnt ignore the 2 that you arent supposed to use and tries to connect to all three. This may not be what is causing your problem, but its worth a shot.
2 variations on this......
In one version your data will connect for a second then drop for 2 seconds and repeat indefinitely. That is when the phone is trying to use all the apn's.
In the other version your data doesnt work at all. This could be because you are locked into the wrong apn or the correct one had been corrupted/altered. If you have never messed with your apns this is less likely.
