I was wondering if anyone has taken their Inspire 4G from AT&T over to T-Mobile?
It's just that ive been with AT&T less than a month got my 1st bill for 3 lines and it's like 850 dollars. so it's like 90 for the family share 1400 and then 30 for the 3GB Data Pro then they switch plans so i get billed both the old rate and the new adjusted rate, for a Tier 1 Carrier they are reallt f****ed Up.
any way if anyone knows how please share a guide or what not Preferably APN settings, ETC ETC
You can use it but you only get edge speeds

Go with straighttalk from walmart. They'll send you a new sim and apn settings for the inspire. And it's 45 bucks a month for unlimited text, calls and Web. Win!
And yes, first bill is always super high. But 850bucks? Damn!!

I use my tmobile sim in my inspire...internet works ok but it is pretty slow at time...and pirateghost to get 3.5 sense ya just have to flash a Rom that has 3.5 built into it..just look at the name if it says sense3.5 its good

Inspire DOES work on T-Mo, just like any other ATT phone. It is slower, though. Edge speed, I believe.

Just got this phone last night, I'm coming from an Evo. Very impressed with the phobe, have no complaints with it. But is AT&T data always this slow? I live bout 10 miles outside Dover, De and Speed Test is showing under 100 kb.
Update, I have gotten a lil over 200kb, but it's usually around 100 or less. I usually get 500-1000kb with my Evo.

I just got this phone last week too, and came from the evo as well. I like a lot more than my evo, it has more memory and I don't mind not having the front camera.
Check if your area has 3g coverage. I constantly get 2+ mbits up, but the upload speeds are really crappy. Att has disabled hsupa on these phones for some reason.
Sent from my Inspire 4TH using XDA App
That's way too low for an Inspire 4G. I know the 4G network of AT&T is crippled on these 4G phones right now and there is suppose to be an update for this phone and the Atrix to enable it, but you should be getting around 1000Kb/s. Once the 4G is enabled, the speed should go up to around 3000Kb/s.
If you're rooted I think you'll find this thread about editing the build.prop file to obtain faster cellular speeds interesting.
Im getting 3.5 down and 1.2 up on chicago, you may not be in a 3g area.

Yeah its looking like Im just outside 3G service. I dont know if this is gonna work. Might just have to stay with Sprint, maybe get the Evo 3D when it comes out.

I signed up for 4G data plan with AT&T, but have not seen the speeds yet. Guess I will have to wait till the entire AT&T 4G backend is put into effect.
Yes att has disabled the upload and the downloads are changeable. Simply root the device and load a rooted stock rom, or whatever rom you would like to try. Its all in the build.prop file in the main system. I've had 1.6upload since I bought and rooted the phone. And I get 3-5download. Look at the threads,very usefull

My so called 4G is pretty sorry this evening. I'm getting 700k download and 100k (or lower) on the upload.
It's getting on my nerves to be honest. It's no wonder users want to root these phones. I'd like to get the features I originally paid for and what AT&T advertises.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Well u also was never told the exact speeds either. They are still rolling out 3g in many areas. Root it,well worth it. But they can say "4g in dover is affective" but u can hit only 1mbps. They will say "but your in 4g".

Us stock Inspire/Atrix owners are going to need to be patient as AT&T works out all the issues. I have confidence that AT&T will shine through once T-Mobile is absorbed. But they have said the 4G speeds will be enabled on these devices soon.
Just did a speed test on my Inspire and this is the first time I tested where it went over 3,000Kb/s.
Just did a quick test ... 2752k down and 345k up. Perhaps there were network issues last night.
Sent from my rooted Inspire HD using XDA App
When you guys run these speed tests, how do you have the settings set for Animation for the speedtest application? On the new version, there's a slider between 'smoother graphics' and 'better performance'. Does this really affect the download/upload measurements?

Nope that wont work. I have an Inspire and a Thunderbolt and even if its unlocked it still wont run on AT&T's 3.5G network. Maybe when AT&T upgrades to real 4G it will but for now its a no go.

Yeah. Did you read my post? GSM vs. CDMA. It will NEVER work on AT&T, unless they decide to duplicate their entire network with CDMA towers. I am officially out of this inane thread.

Go buy a cheap crappy base line prepaid phone and use it for a month... You will quickly realize that you have no legit reason to be bored with it.
thunderbolt and inspire are nearly identical. thunderbolt has a cooler name though... ooh and a kickstand!!
I don't understand why people feel there is such a difference between the Inspire and Thunderbolt? Front facing camera?? kickstand?? The biggest standout to me is LTE vs HSPDA and IMO, not worth the extra cash, yet. Call me old school but I still use my Laptop to do most of my web surfing.

Go to verizon, or get a second line with verizon. Then you'll be bored with that one
Or, get an iphone 4 and you'll see how fast you'll be running back to the Inspire.

You would be better off getting ATT go phone sin. I'm getting good speeds hspa+. ATT will tell u it won't work. U will just need to change sim. I just went through the tmobile edge deal. That sucked. Slow well now on gophone

No, simple mobile runs off of tmobiles network so your stuck on edge. Straight talk uses att so you'll actually get 3g with them

I use straight talk, and the internet is quite fast. HSDPA, my phone even recognizes and picks up the phones supposed 4G service at times depending on my location at time and question.. Certain APN settings can ALSO however, affect the speed, a few MB/s at most. When I have edge, my speed averages, .50 to 1.70 MB/s. Could even be your current baseband kernel.(Flashed Radio).
I bought my one s on frida y. And i want to use it sinple mobile 4g (50$) and i wanted to know if some one with the same plan could tell me how the speeds are.

After 2 gigs it they do throttle unfortunately... but I've never heard of the account shut downs. If you use Wi-Fi ad much as I do send make sure you check the 848484 info via text messages you should be fine. This is coming from a heavy data user. Minor adjustments made and its well worth it

I have a friend who is on att and wants an unlocked g2x I have. I put his card into my g2x and it makes calls and gets on the edge network
(the little E shows up). What I am wondering is, is the phone working at 3g speeds or 2g? He has an Iphone 3gs. Also is there any roms for the g2x that are more suited to run better on att? Any info would be helpful.
Thanks

I believe the issue is your using a t mobile phone on att network. They both use GSM and CDMA But for the faster speeds the phone needs to be able to handle that networks technology. T mobile high speed is that HSPA+, not sure what att is or if they use it, if they don't, the phone won't run on their "whatever " highspeed. Make sense? Check out what att highspeed is.
I may be wrong.

I have 2 G2x's (Me & wife). Both through Straight Talk. One on T-Mobile & one on AT&T. From the research I've done & personal experience with the two phones, the fastest data speed you will be able to get with a G2x on AT&T is Edge. I plan on switching the AT&T over to T-Mobile shortly. At least the 4G is fast where I can find it.
