Hi you can try changing you're radio and ril. It is possible to bring a better signal by changing radio and ril. A good place to start would be ics generic radio and ril. Do some experimenting see which one works best for you and your area

i think this provider( rogers - canada ) work in different frequencies
maybe i can change range of frequencies ??

i see this telephone work in canadian network ( bell-canada have some special firmware or radio )
Rogers sells the HTC Magic, HTC Evo 3D & the HTC Raider
how do i get radio of this model ( 1700 freq )

Rogers frequency are the same as AT&T you'll forever have edge speeds till you buy a new phone

[Q] AT&T I4G & DHD 3G frequency

If i were to flash my inspire 4g with CM7 rom and say flash the inspire 4g with a radio and ril from dhd,would that mean i am able to use the inspire 4g with the 3g frequency being used in europe and the rest of asia?
I understand that the 3g frequency used by at&t(850/1900) is different from the rest of the world,say singapore or france(2100) of course by flashing a dhd radio,i lose 4g connectivity but thats fine by me since i like experimenting.
i understand also that most htc phones are quad band and i4g's hardware is not that much different than dhd.
Is what i suggesting possible?or this is a hardware issue rather than a software issue.
The frequencies depends on the hardware

[Q] HTC Inspire USA model in INDIA which Radio to

Hello Desi,
I sent Inspire 4g Unlock from USA to India. My relative in India use it with tata docomo. I reportedly saying he is loosing connection. same SIM card works fine in HTC HD2 running android 2.3.7 from sdcard with continuous connection. I have try little bit of trail and error here and there read lots of forum. But i think issue is with Inspire being 4g and radio is usa, radio 12.56.60.25U_26.10.04.03_M.
Phone currently running Custom Sense ROM.
Any one out here using same combination and did not above face issue?
Any suggestion which is proper(good) radio that i can try for India?
ANy one with upto date APN setting for TATA Docomo ( I tried many like TATA.DOCOMO.INTERNET and use rest default)?
Same issue reported with Airtel as well not staying connected constantly. so above questions applies for Airtel setting as well.
looking for same thing.. any1?? bump please
amazing, Thanks guys
I guess HD DESIRE HD listens to 2100 band FOR 3G
while HTC INSPIRE 1900 BAND FOR 3G
AND 3G IN INDIA HAS 2100 BAND
So i guess it should make things work
Correction-it wont work

[Q] Htc Sensation Stays on edge even though I had 4g before I flashed ICS firmware

Hi My HTC Sensation stays on edge even though I have had 4g here for the last year. After flashing the appropriate ICS firmware this is a constant issue. Can someone please help.
which fw version did you flash, and did the screen show the radio update was successful?
which rom?

I do not have ICS yet, but....
Check your settings.
Settings->wireless&networks->mobile networks->Network mode: select GSM/WCDMA auto.
Hope it solves your problem.
What ROM?
If it was ARHD you'll have to flash a 4G Icon Mod

the icons are kind of irrelevant since he said it's on EDGE.
Icons wise:
H -> 4G not E -> 4G
Edge problem.
Alright here's what happened. I had the HTC amaze and I traded it for this phone because the development page for that phone sucked. I got this phone and put my sim card in it and it was on edge. I thought because T-Mobile thought I was using the HTC Amaze it was sending out a different reception type. They changed it to the Sensation and still no 4G. I have switched my number to 3 different SIM cards and still no 4G. I reverted back to stock and S-On to see if the problem would be fixed but it wasn't. I am in a 4G covered area and I am getting edge why is this? I have had 4G on the Amaze for months and I had the sensation before the Amaze. both had 4G where I am. I don't know what to do.
Well as far as I've read, HSPA+ (branded as 4G by T-MoUS) runs on 1700MHz (AWS). If you got your device through T-Mo you would get the one branded as Sensation 4G and HSPA+ would work out of the box.
Also, if you got the non-T-MoUS version (Unbranded), z710e (Orig Sensation) and z715e (XE version) should theoretically still receive "4G" because AWS is supported by these models.

[Q] convert HTC Sensation Z710a in to Z710e

I have a HTC Sensation Z710e rooted and S-off with custom "Android Revolution HD" ICS ROM. My wife has a HTC Sensation Z710a with an official ICS ROM. We are both on dinosaur Rogers network that gauges on its clients planning to switch over to WindMobile. The problem we are having is that my wife's Sensation won't work on WindMobile network. It's because WindMobile operates on AWS 1700 band that is supported by Z710e model (HSDPA 900 / 1700 / 2100) but not by Z710a (HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100).
Going trough all different threads in Sensation forums I am getting lot of conflicting info so my question is; if I root, S-off and install Android Revolution HD ROM that comes with it's own radio and essentially converts regular Sensation in to Sensation XE; will my wife's Sensation Z710a be able to support AWS 1700 band as well?
Is it only software (firmware, baseband, radio) or actual hardware that differentiates Z710e and Z710a models? Both my wife's and mine phone look exactly the same unbranded HTC Sensations...

I am not posting this question in Android Revolution HD ROM forum because this question is applicable to any custom ROM.

Whilst you can run the have the same ROM and Radio versions on both phones you cannot convert Z710a <-> Z710e. They have different hardware for the data frequencies.
So in simple terms if your wife want's full 3G functionality she'll need a new phone. She'll still have Voice and Edge though.

We were testing the functionality of both phones in WindMobile store and my wife's phone only connected to their roaming partners. I am not sure if above mentioned company even utilizes regular GSM frequencies... Perhaps the reason why they are so affordable is that they run VOIP all the time as long you are connected to theirs network. So although we spend 99% of the time in their coverage area, she would be paying roaming for everything (voice, text, data).
I am getting some info in different thread that I will try to act upon and see how it works. I am really desperate to cut all my ties with Rogers. I used to have cable TV and internet with them as well (now cancelled) but they keep on screwing customers more and more.

That perhaps would be the best thing to do in order to get what I am trying to achieve. My wife's phone is only 2 months old, essentially new...
I've decided to purchase last year's model for her because although being fan of HTC products I would never buy a cellphone without mSD slot (that's what I've hated about my HTC Diamond before). I am just a bit worried about possible issues shipping phones back and forth between Canada and Argentina. Is there someone in Ontario, Canada interested to trade Z710e for Z710a?

GSM (voice) will work fine for both phones on all networks as will EDGE (2G data) on all networks, the issue is the 3G data side of things. So I don't know why GSM doesn't work it certainly should. They both have: Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz. The Z710a/Z710e difference is purely in the 3G side of things.
Re-reading your post, ahhhh VOIP == Data usage. If they purely use VOIP then you're stuffed, I'd be surprised though but I can't comment on that network.
Have a look at: http://www.gsmnation.com/htc-sensation-z710a-3g-850-1900-mhz.html
Then Network Compatibility -- Canada
Unfortunately they seem to have removed the Z710e phone, just invert the 3G ticks/crosses for it.

[Q] HTC Sensation 4G, 3G data on roms?

I've noticed my data says '3G' data on every rom i flash, are their any roms that use the 4G part of the HTC Sensation 4G?
It might depend on the area you live in.I know on every Rom I flash I'm running H. Which is hspa+ which is T-Mobiles 4g. So it's not the Rom your running it is your cell signal. What you CAN do is change your radio and ril and see if this brings your signal closer to 4g. You can start by looking at the ics generic radio and ril files.because we live in different areas I cannot recommend which will work for you. You will have to experiment for yourself to see which brings the best signal in your area. I Hope this solves your issue. If not it might not be possible to hook to a 4g tower near your area. All you can do is try. Changing the radio and ril should help depending on what is available in your region and area. You flash the radio like a pg58img file and the ril can be flashed like a Rom. Best wishes to you and Hope I've helped.
