Could be a radio issue. Try a different radio. And yeah wrong forum. You should either ask the question in the thread that your rom is in, or in the q and a sub forum.
not radio issue, same with 3.12, 3.25 and now 3.30.
I did notice something like that. I could work perfectly well for a couple of hours just to be unable to load any webpage so that I had to clear memory or in extreme cases turn the airplane mode on and off. It's been ok since I loaded IC 4.6.1 on my phone though.
Same here... The data network is suck and end up i flashed back the Gingerbread. Gingerbread better than ICS.
For those who claimed the data network is ok, try to use 3G data (not WIFI) and use application such as FB Chat, Viber or Whatsapp...
You will see the problem. I also posted the same question in this section.
Very bad, I saw iphone 4s and Galaxy running without this kind of problem. Just hopefully if someone can provide tweak on DATA network.
ok, im glad im not the only one crazy here
i'll try InsertCoin then to check if it works as it supposed to and report back.
thanks guys for confirming this crappy situation.

I tried different radios, ROMs, kernels, SIM-cards, networks but the problem keeps coming back.
It works for a couple hours - maybe a few days and sporadically locks so I cannot view any web page or use any web based service through GPRS. GPRS seams to be connected but no flow at all on GPRS. I havn't found any fix for thing. Just have to wait. :/
Internet works like a charm through WiFi-connection. Sadly I'm about to go back to Gingerbread.
I'm on ICS (ARHD 6.3.0) And have no issues with 3G/HSDPA mobile network. FB, Whatsapp, Chat, Trillian works all the time :S
BTW, I changed my preferred network from WCDMA preffered to GSM Auto (PRL) in the Phone Information menu.

Check and make sure the apns are correct
It's a known issue.so don't stress it to much
Sent From Space Using My ICS Flavored Sensation
For what its worth, I've had great coverage on VI 3 and 3.5. Like folks have said, double check ur apn (make sure it didn't dump or something) and verify that your using the radio recommended by ur rom developer and not just the newest radio.

I posted a thread about how unlocking my European Sensation with Method 2 from the development forum didn't work. I've found something a lot weirder, though.
My phone claims to have no signal, and any call attempts fail. However, after wiping my phone and going to the network settings with no wifi connected, I noticed it said that mobile data was connected. Thinking this was a bug, I opened the browser, and, lo and behold, websites loaded.
This was despite the signal indicator showing an X, the lockscreen claiming no signal and no H symbol in my notification bar.
I haven't heard of anything like this at all. Any idea what's going on?

First thing to do is to get s-off, otherwise you won't be able to flash anything. Just look for revolution s-off. There are enough manuals floating around to help you with that.
Next step would be to flash a custom ROM and the appropriate radio. Personally I am using ARHD 3.6.1 from Mike1986 because it is fast, stable and mike gives good support. If you look in his thread you will find all the info you need in the FAQ section in the first post. however there are many similar ROMS you can choose from. The procedure is the same for all of them.

If you follow this procedure you should be ok.

So today I noticed that when I was going to connect to wifi calling it never initiated. I clicked on the app and it said currently not registered with the t-mo network so I cannot connect to it.
This is a new problem as I was connected to it last night. I installed Virtuous, but the same thing was happening before I flashed that. Anyone else have it happen to them or know how to fix it? Thanks
So are u still on virtuous unity?
Sent from my MyTouch 4G Slide using xda premium
Yeah, but I don't see that being the problem since it was working before flashing Virtuous.
Lmao. You flashed a TOTALLY different rom with a TOTALLY different WiFi calling setup. Just becuz it was working on one rom doesn't mean its gonna automatically work. You need to let virtuous team know about the glitch. Or flash a different rom.
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using xda premium
naw it was not working before virtuous so I'm not gonna say it is Virtuous' fault. It may work itself out don't know.

Did it work itself out?
Anyone experiencing mobile data connectivity issue from t-mobile?
I was on my way to the office when I noticed that my phone have no Internet access. Knowing that a reboot usually fix network connection issue I proceed on cold reboot but to no avail. So I re-flash the stock rom but it did not fix the problem. I went back and restore my backup of Senseless rom and set the APN to default and that finally fixed it. However after a few minutes my wife called about her phone having the same network connectivity issue and we are both T-mobile user.

Good find but I am already have Undead's rom but still useful for other roms out there.
It was T-Mobile this morning. No tunein while driving to work this morning. Came back to normal now. Patience is good sometimes LOL
I recently upgraded my phone to the new ICS software, I flashed the Virtuous Inquisition 2.1.0 and then 3.0.0 they both worked fantastically but when I turned my phone on after being on standby it would have a data connection but it wouldn't communicate with anything.
So getting fed up with that I flashed the update given by InsertCoin ICS and then flashed the ROM.
It is now doing the same thing again?
It's very finicky as to when it works and when it won't. But when it works it works well?
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
same problem, it works, but not well, it used to go from 4g or H to 2g, now it goes to 3g and hangs. Not sure if that has anything to do with it.
Same here. Data seems really buggy on all the ics builds I have used for my tmo sensation. Not sure if it is firmware or Rom problems.

+1 I think I've had this problem with every android phone I ever had. I wish there was an option to just leave the data on at all times like home internet. I hate that it has to search for signal and connect every time I click something because it always hangs. Yea 4G is fast but if it has to dial up the internet every time I use it whats the point? The only fix I know for hanging internet is to toggle airplane mode. Which is some BS in IMHO.
Is there a way to disable 3g so it only bounces 4g to 2g?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
I flashed the virtuous firmware update and formatted all partitions except for the SD card, and its been working for the last week very consistantly.
To my knowledge there is no way to turn on and off searching for 3g and only switch between 4g and 2g. Because I believe Tmobile's. 4g is just faster 3g? Idk.

Could you link to that update? One after 1/22?
So as of last night my Sensation 4G has been stuck on EDGE for some odd reason, nothing changed I had been using Virtuous Inquisition, I tried flashing Quattro to see if it was a ROM problem but nope its still here only now i a random H icon every now and then?
Anybody int he Los Angeles area having this problem?
im on the latest radio
H stands for HSDPA, which is the (faux)-4G that T-mobile uses. That's the standard symbol in Europe, however T-mobile uses the 4G symbol instead. You should be able to find a tweak that changes the symbols back from H to 4G, but otherwise I don't think you are stuck on EDGE.
I understand that HSPA is Tmobiles "4G" i always used to get H and the associated speeds. But randomnly 2 days ago my phone will only get up to EDGE speeds, last night after messing with it for a long time I randomnly got 15 minutes of the phone staying on "H" or 4g,
I tried everything I can and can't find the root of the problem.
I came up with a fix (sorta) for now
I went into the *#*#4636#*#* menu
and changed the preferred network type to WCDMA only
this seems to have corrected the problem, but now whenever i go out of tmobiles spotty HSPA coverage I have no service at all?
can anybody give me some insight as to what my problem maybe
Correct apn settings?

What do you mean by correct APN settings exactly?
I've deleted all APN settings and Reset to Default Twice, but no luck
Switch back to wcdma and gsm preferred. Check apns again. Possibly being throttled by your carrier by chance?

maybe u recently changed your radio?
nope last time i changed radio/firmware or anything was when i updated to 3.24 for Virtous Quattro,
do you think reflashing the firmware or downgrading to 3.12 would work?
Oh lol. That rom doesnt support 4g. U need to get on with virtuous inquisition. Sooooo much better trust me. Guarentee you will have H "4g"
Superwipe then flash inquisition v3

I called TMobile they weren't helpful they just gave me the whole pull the battery out speech, and said I should be getting 4G speeds, and that they were going to pass the problem on to their engineers and the problem should be resolved in 48 hours if not call back,,, im not pinning my hopes on that working out though
NOOB Question
can i use the older GB radios on an ICS Rom?
or rather will a GB radio work properly with an ICS Rom
