If you live on the East Coast it could just be a byproduct of Hurricane Sandy.

Let's try this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1884249

First thing I would do before changing anything is call T-Mobile and see if there is an outage or scheduled maintenance in your area. I know people don't like to call tech support but as that s what I do for work sometimes people can really mess things up when it wasn't even on their end.
Not saying you would in any way, but it's good to cancel out all possibilities that are easy first
Ps..questions go in the q&a section...questions and answers

It's been like this for over a month. I live in Seattle so it won't be affected by the hurricane sandy.

Have bothered to call your carrier? Maybe your provisioning is off etc etc. Were you ever throttled does it happen on every rom?

all of the above
plus, pull your sim/check apn's/see if your network is set to wcdma preferred on phone

Weird new issue Berlin /ocean city

For the first time in since I've had this phone its been on 3g for the last hour in a half. In my area I never see 3g. Anyone else having this issue could it be the Rom (no blame intended) do I need to change the radio?

I just think its weird. No all of a sudden. Even as I type it flashes between the two like a open sign. It just started happening today ill run a speed test to see if anything is different.

My inspire wont receive 3G?

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.

Very weird LTE issue

I am using AT&T One X now, and I signed up a 4G LTE 2 year contract. However, my phone only gets to HSPA+ but not LTE. I've tried different ROMs, flashing radio, choosing the network type(changing into “LTE only” will only cause no signal), etc... None is working.
Any ideas? I live in Diamond Bar, which there are lots of hills and low mountains... Will the signal be a possible cause for the LTE fail?
LTE can be finnicky with signal, but what APN are you currently using?
Are you sure that your city has lte not every city has it yet.

This. It's the most obvious answer but it's probably it.
I live near diamond bar and I get LTE everywhere I go, granted I don't go there..

With the att ruu, the apn is locked and there is only one. So it is definitely the correct apn. With other roms, I tried all apns but none worked.

Since LTE runs on such a low frequency, if you are even a little outside of coverage area, on the fringe, or in low-lying areas, its very possible that you simply dont get LTE coverage. have you tested or witnessed any other LTE devices functioning in your area?

That is true, but you won't necessarily have LTE data unless you've called customer service and had them activate it for your plan.

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.
Sent from my Desire HD using xda app-developers app
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.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
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.

mmm, i don t understand... we can use 4G and in every country?
No, 4g LTE is only available in very few places and your One S cannot get it. Forget 4G for at least a year maybe more because it needs all new transmitters and all new bandwidth and all new licences. In the UK it's only available from one supplier EE and only in some parts of some big cities.
4g lte is fine, but I already get 30Mbps download on T-Mobile "4g" so I'm not really concerned
