After i flashed android revolution yesterday, my phone went down to 3g speeds it even says so when it downloads, did i do somethign wrong? And im with virgin not tmobile
Does it ever show "H"? The Sensation 4G icons are misleading... When you run regular Sensation ROMs you actually see what you're really connected to.
yeah it shows "3g H" in a symbol form ...
i thought my speed went down to 3g since arhd never asked anything about htc sensation 4g for virgin...
Your on HTC sensation on sprint network ?????

My stock 4G rom never showed 3G. It would throttle down to 2G and back to 4G...
Many of T-Mo's original "4G" phones actually showed "H" for HSPA+, but I think too many people didn't understand that.
Any time your new ROM shows "H" then you know it's running HSPA+ (4G).
my phone is from virgin.... i never noticed "H" and a 3g untill in flashed arhd yesterday
4g = h. Also, T-Mobile roms lied, and utms is also showed as 4g. There was no 3g step.
Even with h, you WILL get tmobile's 4g speed, provided the tower supports it, same as before just a different icon.

If you have a cdma phone, you CANNOT use it on GSM. This includes even if the phone has a sim for lte, it just won't work.

I have a question... The picture below, shows an Unlocked HTC Sensation 4G from T-Mobile on the left side, and on the right an Unlocked HTC Inspire 4G from AT&T... my question is... why is the Inspire (right) unable to show T-Mobile as an option of network operator? thank you!
Also, just in case... I can use the T-Mobile sim card on the Inspire, and the AT&T sim card on the Sensation with no issues... remember, they are both unlocked...
Sensation -> Stock ROM
Inspire -> Android Revolution HD ROM (from mike1986) with Radio_12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2
If you scan in your Inspire, do you see T-Mobile?
My Inspire shows both AT&T and T-Mobile.

Any idea why I don't see T-Mobile in my scan? But I can use T-Mobile with the sim card... Strange...

so im guessing that it works like for calls and such if so then what does it matter, if you flash an AOSP rom it should have the option though, if you have a stock or improved stock rom then it will not have t-mobile in it

My stock sensation shows all networks... The inspire with custom rom does not... When I go to europe or anywhere... that means the inspire will not show all available options, and that's not good... So nobody knows why?

probably because att doesnt want you roaming on Tmobile us's network, or it might just use it as the ATT network by default if they have some sort of roaming agreement? just postulating here but in europe you should be able to see all networks
Anybody else can do a scan with HTC Inspire? Just to see results... Thanks!

I noticed that the roms and themes being built have 3G icon in there screenshots. If you have a T-Mobile HTC Sensation, will it say 4G or 3G? I'm assuming 3G. Is there away to change that?
Depends on rom. Mine says H (insertcoin).
Sent from my Dell Streak 7
It depends on your ROM. Cyanogenmod differentiates between 3g, hspa and hspa+ (what tmobile calls 4g). I assume that when the ROM makers start really developing, there will be an easy way to tell.
As for the screenshots, maybe the dev only lives in a 3g area.

i stiil have stock rom and it always show 4g
The sensation does not have a 3g logo. Even when its on hspa it says 4g which kinda sucks. I bet roms will be able to show all icons

I believe the European version does.
I'm wondering if it's as easy as swapping out the file that the icons are in, like it was on WM.
I actually like seeing 4G all the time. Helps my IPhone superiority complex a bit. LOL
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
I would normally see H hahah. I don't get these devs making sense roms when the stock phone is sense...
I am in the same situation. Since I have a custom rom i have 3G icon. Before with my rom operator Bell Canada had H+ icon.Can someone explain to me??
yes most say "H" if you are in a 4g area
Luckily its really simple to change it to 4G if you wish, I as well as others have uploaded the modified file
destructionb : where? and how
Here's one grabbed from another thread.
adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app
Reboot and you will have the 4G icon back.
I'm using coredroid and mine say 4g.

Im not rooted but the other day my 4 disappeared and it only said "G". I was like WTF, restarted the phone and it fixed it.
I'm used to the H from CyanogenMod since that's what the signal actually is...
I'm on Bell using CoreDroid and as far as I can tell it only goes up to H now instead of H+ like it did when it was stock.

Can this phone get 4g speed using a HSPA+ network???
It can go up to 14,4mbps. It's exactly the same as the european sensation, except the name.
I've used speed test and got 4 mbs down and 2 mbs up but I don't think I was in a good signal place
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
Yes it can
So, I can use this phone on att's 4g network.
That's good to know.

No, you won't have hspa+ speed on AT&T. It doesn't have the right band for it. Only compatible in europe and tmobile US.

If you want to use it on at&t and get 3g/h, you need a bell sensation from Canada.
Wanted to ask for some info, after I flashed my phone with arhd 4.1.3 everytime I connect to tmobiles data network it only shows "H" icon instead of the "4g". Does this mean Im not connected to the 4g anymore?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
Not at all.
H means HSPA+ which is tmobiles 4G mike is based out of the other half of the world which doesn't run 4G so that's why his rom have the. H no different than 4G

My inspire is for AT&T which I have unlocked for t - mobile but I only get edge internet...
I saw there was a number to(call)/ dial to change settings but when I set it to 3g my signal would just stop and say no service. I also heard wasn't possible to have 3 but I doubt that, is it true?

That depends on the area where you are....in the case you are using a different carrier from ATT you wont get 3g...just edge.
So "lay012" gets 3g because he has AT&T?
There's no way then?

For 3G
Tmobile uses 1700/2100 MHz
HTC Inspire uses 850/1900 MHz
So to answer you, there is NO way. Have to get a phone that matches the network.
The stuff they teach you in school 'skimming and scanning' or whatever your teachers called it shouldn't be used in life after school. I didn't see the unlocked for T-Mobile part .-.
I'm on AT&T.

No the bands are hardware dependent. This has been talked about it hundreds of times. A search would have shown this.
