Network Operators Scan Don't Show T-Mobile on List...

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!

4G icon

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).

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

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.

Have you switched from sense 3.6 to 4? Because sense 4 ROMs have problems with WiFi tethering.

Why Does data sometimes drop out then come back after numerous airplane modes?

Seems like this is a hex that comes with my sensation as once in a while it will drop data and try to reestablish the connection over and over again..
multiple roms except stock do this..
why?

Self Bump..
the issue seems to be with my router.. whenever i use WIFI at home it makes my phone do this.. but anywhere else i use wifi its fine and connects right back to data..
any ideas?

Same problem with me

HELP! Data connection in USA With UK model drops after 1 second

I am desperate for some help. I am visiting the US and have purchased a T-mobile sim while i am here.
Data connects but then drops immediately in a never ending loop.
I've installed the T-mobile US firmware but no luck. My uk Orange sim connects fine and ive tried the US sim in a friends UK Desire HD which also works fine.
I now have no idea what else to try.
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance to any one that can help.

Have you checked your apn settings to make sure your data is configured correctly with T-Mobile?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium

Yes. They're the same as those picked up on the Desire HD I tried it in.
Interestingly, it began working but after switching to wifi and back it stopped again.

Thats interesting i dont know what the Wi-Fi would have anything to do with your mobile connection. Also make sure you check your network selection and make sure its automatic.

Do you have the phone set to wcdma only? You will be stuck on edge I believe since the euro sensation is 1900umts. You may be able to switch to 1700 by flashing the modem partitions (not included in ruu)
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda app-developers app

Yes, net selection is automatic and i've also tried different combinations of data type.
No luck there either.
I'm on open sensation rc1 at the moment. I'm going to try a sense ROM but I'm sure it won't help.
I'll give another radio a try.
Thanks guys.
