Sensation 4g question

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

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.

3g on g2x

So I was just wondering does the g2x have 3g and how do we know if we are on 3g or 4g

Yes it has 3G on 1700 and 2100Mhz. You cannot tell if you are on 3G or 4G because what T-Mobile calls 4G is really 3.5G (HSDPA+). It is not true 4G. The phone just says 4G whether you are connected to 3G or 4G. When it says 4G you are really only using 3G as T-Mobile is deceiving you and playing a shell game. Having said that, the phone's max speed is 21Mbps per second which is pretty darn fast, but not real 4G.

So does the latest nightly actually tell u ure getting 3g or 4g

Me too. I have 3G activated and when I switch to 3G it shows me 3g but it is slower than the edge network. I get speed like 10kbps but the 3G speed in my nokia phone with the same carrier is 2-5mbps

[Q] Radio Question

I've got an AT&T straight talk sim in my i9020t and can only get an edge connection, from what I can tell it looks like I need a Tmobile sim. I read about an SII that you could flash a radio that would make it work though, anyone know anything about this? I'd rather try flashing some before I order a new sim.

I've heard that too about the GSII, but I'm afraid the situation is different for the nexus s. Your I9020T's 3g radio will only work on tmobiles frequencies; the hardware's reception capabilities cannot be changed by flashing something.
Now, I'm not familiar with the sim you currently have in, BUT, if that network uses the same frequencies as T-Mobile, all you need to do is adjust your APN's.
I'd look up the frequencies for you, but I'm off to class..
Let my know how it goes/what you find!

I'm pretty sure that he's right about being stuck on the edge with at&t. 3g frequency only on tmobile. You would need a pentaband phone like the gnex to get both carriers 3g or hpsa+

Yep, at&t 3g frequencies are not the same as T-Mobile frequencies. You definitely need a T-Mobile sim for your i9020T
