Getting hspa+ on T-Mobile - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I unlocked my girlfriends hox and was pleasantly surprised to see the H on my notification bar. Unfortunately hspa+ doesn't take advantage of the Hspa+42 but H+21 but hey no time to complain when I was expecting Edge. The real downside is that H is spotty at best and goes in and out of H and E. Not to mention drive a few miles and I am "living on the Edge"
Anyone else using hox on t-mobile/simple moble getting 3G?

If you're in an area where t-mobile is using the 1900mhz band you'll get hspa.

I get it here in Philadelphia. Shows H+ all day.

You might be able to edit the build.prop to enable HSPA+ 42.
In build prop you will see ro.ril.hsdpa.category=XX According to the spec sheet for the MSM8960 (the chip in the One X), it includes support for Release 9 DC-HSPA+ up to 42.2 megabits. To enable, change the category to 24.
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=24
I'm not sure if it actually works since I don't have a DC-HSPA+ network to try it on, and I don't know if the phone has the right antenna(s), but it's worth a shot. Doesn't seem to be slowing my phone down any.

Speeds aren't so much an issue, the spotty "H+" coverage venture out of my bubble and its all WE. But thank you that is very useful information

Anyone have the settings?
I'm on t-mobile and I just picked up an X but I cna't get HSPA to work, does anyone have the settings? Obviously they do offer HSPA and LTE here in my area so I'm hoping I get this working.
Thanks in advance.
(I have searched and used the nexus 4 setting with no luck)

You could try flashing a new radio. I used to get absolutely no signal at my lease but flashed the 2.40 and now have full edge everywhere out there

Stock ROM vs Custom APN

When I got the Inspire, they hadn't put in the IMEI and I got the "H+" with a check mark. They fixed that and the check was replaced by the up/down arrows. I noticed that the APN had virtually no settings:
APN - Phone
MMS Protocol - wap 2.0
MCC - 310
MNC - 410
everything else is "not set"
When I rooted and installed AFR001 and later AFR002, the APN was hard-coded to:
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
Port: 80
Username:[email protected]
Password:CINGULAR1
Server: not set
MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.32
MMS Port: 8080
MCC:310
MNC:410
APN Type: *
I no longer get an "H+", but simply an "H". I have read conflicting reports that the "4G" connection won't work with the APN settings I have as they're 3G only. So the question is, how do we get the "4G" APN on the phone? If I make a new APN and set the settings manually to what appeared in the stock ROM, I get no data connection whatsoever.
Don't quote me here, but I'm pretty sure the afr001 and afr002 ROMs don't have an H+ icon since they are the European Desire HD ROMs. So you may be getting 4G HSPA+, but it doesn't have an icon for it.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I believe the best thing to do now is to just wait for the stock ROM to be rooted. It looks like the Desire HD ROMs are not 4G compatible.
Not compatible, really!? I have no other issues on AFR002 than that. I thought it would be simple

AFR002 is based on the Telus ROM, not the European ROM, however it may not have the H+ icon either, but I'm sure that it can support HDSPA/HUSPA just fine.
I was hoping to find out final clarification on the APN question as well. If I use the 3G APN, will I need a new APN to get 4G speeds. If so, what are the settings for the 4G APN?
Sent from my Inspire using XDA App
I get the same speed results with both of them, wap. cingular and phone settings. The only difference is when I switched to phone I got a message saying "conection failed" but I was able to use data. I'm using AFR001
Ok, thanks for the info. I'm guessing the APN issue is pure speculation @ this point anyway until AT&T's backhaul is complete.
Sent from my Inspire using XDA App
It's unclear. After my imei was updated, I checked the APNs and there are two with lock icons. Maybe if we could check with someone that has real H+ service who could check download speeds with and without the 3G APN.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
+1 I've been playing with APNs all day trying to figure it out. Network info shows HSDPA.
to clean up the APN issue: The APNs with the lock are from ATT with only one or two settings off to control tethering. When you use the custom APN settings you get tethering even on the stock ROM without a special tethering plan.
When I talked to AT&T they told me there is no special Sim card or APN setting for 4G. 4G is a hardware issue, but AT&T has only released 4G speeds in SOME areas, LA and Orange County do not have it yet. The whole network will be up and running by year end. The H+ is just an icon that AT&T put in the ROM, they don't even have the H icon, if you are on 3g or 4g it will still say H+ because this is there way of marking something they don't have yet. Mush like the EVO when it first was released Verizon didn't even have 4g running anywhere but they had commercials all over the place for a product they could not deliver.

Unlocked ChaCha on Tmobile US data problem

I have an unlocked ChaCha that i am using to replace one of my HD2's (one running WM7 dual booted with Android 2.3.3, and one im replacing is strictly Android 2.2)
Anyway i have this ChaCha unlocked and popped my sim card in and everythign works fine except even after putting the different APN's out there for Tmobile US, im still only connecting to Edge (at least thats waht it says in the data connection area in the status bar)
i tried doing a Mobile Connection Test and i got results in the 3g range..however downloading skype from android market took a few minutes, where as skype 9meg file on my HD2 took secodns, so im confused.
Any help would be appreciated. If i confused anyone please let me know and i can clarify because i really need to figure out whats going on
That's all you can get. EDGE speed is your fastest. The radio can't get the 2100 band necessary for t-mobile 3g.

ouch good to know. guess im going to sell this thing then and get something else lol kind of a big disappointment.
its funny because ive seen screen shots of the phone with a 3G or H logo in the data connection spot on status bar. not very familiar with how the bands work with Tmobile and ATT but i would imagine they are a bit different even tho similar.
anyway thanks. still kind of shocked about it.

Yes, exactly. T-mobile sim wants to connect to 1700/2100 (it needs both simultaniously) to get 3g/H, but the phone doesn't have those frequencies, so it connects using the 2g bands, and only gets EDGE data speed.
I unlocked mine, and use my t-mobile sim. I like the keyboard a lot, and don't do much data intensive stuff, just email and facebook. EDGE is fast enough for those apps.

The phone has those frequencies. I have posted the phone specs from the HTC site. Also present on GSMArena and in the user Manual.
I don't see 1700 listed anywhere. The radio of all t-mobile phones work the same way: one direction the data rides on the 2100 band, the other direction the data rides on the 1700 band. If the 1700 band is not present, no 3g/H connection.
The GSM bands are not broadband data bands.
If the frequencies are present like you insist, then why can't the at&t unlocked version get 3g/H with a t-mobile sim?
True Fix
Hey Everyone, after ridiculous amounts of fiddling around and figuring stuff out I got it. Got MMS to work and internet simultaneously without any WIFI connected for an HTC Status on the T-Mobile network. I ended up just combining a couple APNs together and slowly troubleshooting and entering and deleting. GOT IT! Internet and MMS all works. Feels good to figure that out! Hope this helps anyone who might need it. Not sure if anyone cares by this time, but thought I might post this anyways.

thanks for the suggestions doesn't really help at all just looked over it and i think only the 2g bands are compatible with tmobile's network not sure though MIUI helps the network a little but the APN you gave me dosen't do much thanks for the help
Yeah they are not backwards compatible. So a AT&T phone will only get 2G on T-Mobile and vice versa. Except for that one T-Mobile phone. Admire or something like that actually gets AT&T 3G

You will never get HSPA on T-Mobile on AT&T phone. AT&T phones don't have the bands required for T-Mobile's 3G network. Same goes for T-Mobile phones. Except for the HTC Amaze.

How to know if the phone is in LTE mode?

Hey guys,
When browsing, and it says 4G on the Rogers One X...is that LTE? Mine always says 4G, but NEVER said LTE..any ideas how to find out if it's using LTE?
When I go to phone status, and network status, it shows HSPA or HSPA+...
i believe it says 4G then lte right under it
your probably on hspa+ ?
When on LTE, it will say LTE.
When on HSPA+, it will say 4G.
The Rogers LTE network is still extremely small, so you might not be in a serviced area. You can check their map here: http://www.rogerslte.com/lte-in-your-area

hkalltheway iam having the same issue as you! They actually replaced my device and gave me a new htc one x, switched my sim card twice and have escalated my problem to senior tech support. APN is correct, lte is on auto. I even tried forcing it into lte by going into the phone menu by pressing *#*#4636#*#* and selecting LTE only.
My plan is lte as the last 2 phones i have had were lte (sgs 2 lte & raider). They both never had an issue receiving an lte signal. I'm close to downtown toronto so im in an area where the LTE signal is strong.
I'm wondering if you are having the same issue as me. At least it seems like it. Call rogers and have them open up a case. It has been a week and they still haven't fixed the issue.
did you have an lte phone prior to the one x?
It will say LTE in the Notification Bar ...

I agree with a few of the others. If you're using LTE, it will actually say LTE in the Notification Bar, right above the signal strength bars.
If it says 4G, then you're only on HSPA+.
If you're not getting the LTE to display, and you ARE in an LTE area, then I would definitely call Rogers and have this issue resolved.

I'm having a similar issue unfortunately, albeit mine is with Bell. I've unlocked the device and purchased an LTE sim card and in multiple LTE service areas with only 4G connectivity. Speed tests are in the 6-10mb speeds for HSPA.
Curious if this is an issue with the phone as others are having problems too.

I was having the same problem with my Rogers account and it turned out it was an issue with the account not my device. In my case they added the LTE to my account but it is incompatible with older data plans in my case I have the 6GB for $30.00. They have since told me that in order to get the service to work I need to update to an LTE data plan which I really don't want to do as it will cost double what I am paying now hahaha so I think I will live with the 6-10mbps I am getting now
10GB for $50 ...

Actually, Rogers routinely comes out with DATA plan deals. I have 10GB for $50, which also comes out every so often. The more common "6GB for $30" is offered frequently.
Yes, it's true that you need not just an LTE SIM card, but to have your account set up for access to their LTE network. I just didn't realize it costs more. It didn't cost me more.
Peter
Addendum: My plan, 10GB data, 200 minutes talk, and unlimited Texts in/out is about $83 per month.

The information I have is there isn't a specific LTE APN similar to Rogers. I'm using pda.bell.ca as my APN. I'm mainly curious if Bell requires a specific LTE data plan or other activation parameters to connect. The people I've spoken to states that this is not required.
If anyone is wondering, I'm on Telus' Flex 60 plan (older plan from before they had LTE) and I did not need to make any changes to my account.
LTE worked off the bat with the standard Telus APN. Although Bell/Telus LTE coverage around here is spotty, I'm just outside their LTE zone on the map.

Tmobile LTE Connectivity issue?

Recently switched over from N4 to N5 and started to notice some connection differences. In my N4 i used to get 1-2 bars of LTE (old radio with LTE) all the time but now using the N5 im seeing only 1-2bars of H+ with occasional LTE. I can force it to LTE and it'll get at least 1 bar. It's on LTE preferred mode as well. Why isnt the N5 using LTE instead of H+? Here are the APNS:
APN: Fast.t-mobile.com
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MCC: 310
MNC: 260

Tried that one also but it still connects mainly to the H+, i'd have to force LTE only mode in order to get LTE.
Try an older radio. The 4.4.2 radio kinda sucks. It is .23 and it seems for me .15 works best.

Maybe its just me but you might want to stay on H. In my recent experience I just got an s4 on tmo and I keep hitting my 2.5gb limit on lte. When I was using my s2 I didnt have lte and never got these messages that im reaching my limit. So seems you use more data on lte???

I guess i'll try that. I swapped out to a new tmobile sim and the results have been the same at my work place. I put the card over to my N4 and it gets LTE connection with no problems... however the speeds are similar to the H+ though... i dont have great connection but would like to have constant lte.

Tried all the radios and resulted in the same, no LTE default but i could force it. Shows H the whole time. The oldest radio was the worst, it gave me 500+ms ping on speedtest.net. This is extremely annoying. I have LTE but I must force it through *#*#4636#*#* to get LTE but it will not switch over automatically.
Is there an option where its conserving power and not using LTE instead?
