I must say this is more gripe venting then anything. The I got 2 sensations 1 for my wife and 1 for myself, and this has to be the most amazing hardware/software combo ive ever held in my hands...
But WTF is up with the sluggish DATA people are experiencing?
I was expecting these "bat outta hell" data speeds with all this hype about all these new 4G markets T-Mobile is pushing and the HTC Sensation 4G is suppose the benefit from the "beefed" up network. . . . B S!!!
I find myself waiting forever for web pages to upload, facebook refreshment takes ages to complete and as for some who waited months for this device to be release, I must say im not happy at all with this issue.
Now I'm not saying the phone is a bust, its something im willing to deal with until root/s-off is achieved..
I did not buy this phone for what it is as much as I did for what it will be!!
so lets hope root comes sooner then expected!!
BTW: I did try that "DATA LATENCY FIX" in the development section = NO SUCCESS
Are you using a new sim card?

I assume you are on T-Mobile USA.
While T-Mobile USA DOES technically have the largest and fastest "4G" blanket in the US market...it's still few and far between. My HD2 and G2 both say [H] most of the time, and my downlink speed is usually between 3 and 5 MBps tops...which I might say is pretty damn fast.
We are not going to be getting these crazy ass speeds until T-Mo gets more coverage out in the wild.

I was gonna ask the same thing. I also have a new sensation but using the old sim card from my hd2. I wanted to know if using a newer sim card would be beneficial?

If you are using an ooollldddd T-Mobile SIM than yeah it might, but most of the time a newer SIM doesn't really change things.
I will say that thus far I have noticed that the data speeds on my Sensation aren't quite where they were on my G2X. Now don't get me wrong, my data speeds on my Sensation are not slow by any means but in comparison with the G2X it isn't as fast. My G2X at home pulls 7-8megs on the low end and about 11-12 on the high end, whereas the highest I've seen on my Sensation in the same place at the same time is around 9-10 megs on the high end and 3-4 megs on the low. Most often my Sensation pulls around 5 megs download, which to be honest I'm not happy with. My Nexus S pulled that, while my G2X pulls between 7-8 on average.
as noted by other posters, you aren't using an old SIM card are you?
I'm getting around 8-9 megs DL speed consistently.
New sim made a big difference for me. I kept the one that came with my second g2x when I returned it and put it in my nexus one. I was previously using the one that came with my g1 and always had stuck data issues. I lived with it all that time and finally after putting the new sim in my nexus one the radio rocked. Hardly ever had stuck data after that.
Needless to say I am now using the sensation, using the sim that came with it and radio works well. It holds 4g while traveling in areas where the nexus one would always drop from 3g to edge. I'm pretty happy so far.

I would recommend trying a new SIM, but I have a feeling it's just bad coverage.
I did speedtest with a full on deathgrip, here are the results:

I'd also try changing the APN settings. Whatever TMO put in their by default was all screwed up. I changed them and increased speed 2X. Now getting the same speeds as I do on the g2x and NS
I'm having a similar, but worse, issue: after the first two days of having a sensation (with sporadic data issues), it just stopped pushing/pulling data when on the mobile network... it says "4G", but nothing gets transferred. Forcing 2G doesn't help at all...
I exchanged the unit, and the same thing with my new one. While at the store, I asked them check, and they said I have one of the new SIM's. Customer support said that an update is coming "soon" (TM)...
I've tried the data latency fix from the dev section, tried copying APN settings from my N1 (which still gets excellent 3G speeds - 4-5 mbps average), also tried setting random combinations of APN settings... Nothing helps...
I hope that "soon" means like ~1 week, but in the meantime, does anyone have any other ideas to try?

On my N1 (running CM7) there are 2: simple and T-Mobile US... Simple gets better data speeds (don't know why)

On my sensation, the values were the same as N1's T-Mobile, but without username, port, or server, and with the APN type a little different (don't know exactly -- SIM is in my N1)
Also, Sensation's APN settings for MMS seem to be split up from the others (and not set in the main one)
I tried changing the APN settings to simple but they were actually slower than the stock T-Mobile settings. I am not noticing a difference in data speed between my G2X vs. my Sensation. Sometimes the Sensation is faster and other times the G2X is faster.
Has anyone changed there APN settings and got noticeably faster speeds on the Sensation? If so. What did you change them too?

Yeah I changed them and noticed a nice boost. I put my info into the latency data fix thread. You can see if that helps at all
I must have a lemon becuase im barely getting 1.974mbps download and 758kbps upload
the first time i did it today was 700down 300 up
trying a 3rd time and getting 2.326down just laying on my couch.
trying 4th time holding in my hand getting 2.946mbps down
tried 5th time angling it away from the window getting 1.6
im taking it back to tmo tomorrow also becuase it keeps resetting on me.
I'm using the sim from my HD2 (Got on release and thats when I joined Tmo) and other than having to change from a smartphone data to android data have had no major issues. I hit 9Mb down and 3Mb up the other night but am more consistent around 5 down and 1.5 up. Could be how I am holding it though.
Ok so i was told that if i root my phone i can use data on gophone sim i need help on how to do this step by step or to confirm if this is true thanks guys

This works for my stock Inspire (red) using a gophone sim. I don't get LTE, but I get HSPA+ at speeds as fast as 5-9 mbps at a cheap prepaid price.
im starting to lean toward a bad sim card?
its a HTC Inspire & it did work with other android phones, I called gophone & they said they dont have web for 4g phones i means if i dont get lte service it doesnt matter i just want to update facebook status or check email. wats your APN for gophone to try that
Here are mine. Mind you this is for a reg gophone not a Pick your plan.

ok but your web works fine right? do you think it would work for the 50 dollar unlimited plan?
Yes it works when i pay one of their little data packages. I don't do it often as i have wifi everywhere so no need but it has never failed to work. Not sure about that plan.

have you tried contacting them directly? I think they may be better at helping you with their service imo
no offense to zel of course.
I still am thinking the sim card is improperly configured on thier end and you should try getting a new one
I did call & this is what they said, we do not support 4G phones thats all they said i asked if there was some way unlocking it or something & they said no that they dont support 4g phones & they cant do anything about it.
i have a go phone pantech cell phone & the internet works fine there 2 so i dont know wats the problem wat should i do
You have to buy one of the data packs. The 50 unlimited is for non smart phones, smart phones require a separate data package try the smallest one and see if it works. I have a gophone Sim in my galaxy s2 and have no problems with data just don't get LTE.

Wow! I'm laughing!!! First time ever being throttled. Also first time seeing a report of the prompt as such.

When I've been throttled it still said I was on HSPA/ 3g networks, but I still got speeds of like 50kbps down... although it isn't really noticeable in th browser for general searches/ forums although watching videos is near impossible...

Data Throttleing Workaround
To all my friends with T-Mobile~ if you have a smartphone & a data plan, I've discovered a workaround for the data caps on the newer 4g plans. The newer phones come with a certain APN, or access point name, pre-programmed into them, kind of like a proxy that your phone goes through to connect to the internet. This specific APN allows the company to track your data usage. What I did was change it to a different APN that they don't keep an eye on. I've been testing this trick for about 6 weeks now & it definitely works. I've been purposely gobbling data like crazy all month just to see if they catch me(I'm at my 5gb limit already), but the T-Mo website only shows that I've used about 100 megs(which was only caught because I flashed a new ROM a couple weeks ago & forgot to change the APN till the next day). EDIT: As of this posting, my monthly allotment has rolled over, and despite using data all day long for several days, the meter on T-Mobile.com is still at 0mb :}
Step 1- if you have the T-Mobile "My Account" app on your phone- DELETE IT. Freeze it if you don't wanna delete it altogether, but either way get rid of it. I've been getting reports that this trick is not working for people with this app installed, and I think it's because it's measuring your data usage on the phone & then reporting your usage back to T-Mobile regardless of what APN you use. So kill it!!!
Step 2- on your phone, go to your settings. FYI- these settings might not be EXACTLY the same on every phone, but you should have the same basic information fields as the ones here. Open up wireless & networks, then mobile networks, then access point names. You should see T-Mobile US or something like it, and the APN should be epc.tmobile.com. This is the monitored APN. Create a new APN with the following settings(Settings>wireless & networks>mobile networks>access point names>menu key>new APN):
Name: whatever you want, I named mine T-Mobile 2
APN: internet2.voicestream.com

Authentication type: leave blank
APN type: default,supl,mms (or internet + mms, if that's the setting your phone has)
APN protocol: IPv4 (if your phone doesn't have this, don't worry)
Once you input these settings, hit menu & then tap save. Go back to the APN screen, select the new APN, and enjoy your TRULY unlimited data. This APN will bypass the data tracking while still allowing you to enjoy full 4G speeds :3
FYI I've only tested this on an Android phone, but AFAIK it should work on any 4G T-Mobile phone that allows you to change the APN settings.
And FFS, keep your big fat mouth shut about this. Don't mention it to anyone at T-Mo, we don't want this getting out so they get wise to the loophole. Some might call this stealing, but we as customers PAY for unlimited data every month and its our right to get the services we pay for. Yes, the plans clearly state that you're paying for a limited amount of 4G, but I don't think that gives them the right to knock us down to sub-2G speeds once we use up our 4G allotment. If they just bumped us back down to 3G it wouldn't be a big deal, but it's total bull**** to cripple us with near-GPRS speeds.
Oh, and P.S.- if you've already hit your limit & have ALREADY been throttled... I've never been throttled so I haven't been able to test this on a throttled phone, so I have no idea if this will work to get you back up to speed(nyuk nyuk, I got jokes) but if you do it you won't have to worry about being capped next month.

Ya know...that's the really weird thing about Tmo. And ALL of the cell companies for that matter. Just like you I can drive about 25 miles south towards Chattanooga and get a scalding 4 & 5 bars 4G! Yet I can turn north towards Knoxville and take a mile left turn over a danged hill and can't even receive a stinking PHONE CALL for the next 25 miles! It's INSANE! EVERYONE should be able to at least make a phone call almost anywhere unless they live in a cave before they start UPGRADING their damned signals for people that already have freakin' 4G! It just blows my damn MIND!
Does this work?

If they just bumped us back down to 3G it wouldn't be a big deal, but it's total bull**** to cripple us with near-GPRS speeds.
Oh, and P.S.- if you've already hit your limit & have ALREADY been throttled... I've never been throttled so I haven't been able to test this on a throttled phone, so I have no idea if this will work to get you back up to speed(nyuk nyuk, I got jokes) but if you do it you won't have to worry about being capped next month.

I haven't needed to use it in a couple of months now but the last time I tethered my tablet it got right on by That "would you like to spend $15 more dollars a month for something you already pay for" message they replaced my browser homescreen with. Of course I had to reinstall a fresh copy of my browser & everything else that it was using to get it to initially go away but I never saw it again after I did. I sure HOPE that it still works for everyone!

Does anyone know what the correct settings are for APN to get data and MMS working for the G2x with Staight Talk and a CM7 stable build ROM?
I have tried literally everything, and nothing works. I briefly saw Edge network for about 3 minutes one morning, but that's it. No 4G and no MMS.
Please let me know ASAP. Thanks so much!!
Apparently I have to post ten times before entering "outside links" (even though they're APN settings). So here goes a bunch of annoying bumps...
And I have to wait five minutes between each post? This is ungodly annoying. Anyway, here's the APN settings, sort of:
Name: StraightTalk ATT
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: http//)mmsc(.)cingular(.)com
MMSC proxy: 66(.)209(.)11(.)33
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication Type: Not set
APN type: default,supl,mms
APN protocol: IPv4
APN enable/disable: APN enabled (tick mark checked but grayed out anyways)
Bearer: Unspecified
Because of this boards overly aggressive anti spam security, I had to put some of the characters in the addresses above in parentheses. Just remove the start and end parenthesis to deduce the setting.
I still am utterly lost as to why they need email verification + captcha + no web links + wait five minutes between posts. The captcha itself would suffice.
If you're using an att straight talk sim, u won't get 4g on the g2x. Different radio frequencies..

Well that's good to know. But I thought I could pick between T-mobile and AT&T with the same SIM, yes? I just have to choose the right MVNO, which it seems you're saying is the T-mobile one, yes?
Any and all help is very much appreciated!
No. You need a T-Mobile straight talk sim to get 4g service. With att straight talk sim you will only get edge. They give different sims for each gsm provider.

Call them and see if they will send another sim, its worth a shot..
And technically gsm compatible phone could be att or T-Mobile. I think they assume att though because att provides better coverage.

Well, I got the new SIM (they didn't offer to send me one, btw), and I put in this information:
Name: Straight Talk
APN: wap.tracfone
Port: 8080
MMSC: http://mms.tracfone.com
Left everything else default/blank and sure enough, still no data. I just transferred the service over to the new SIM, so I hope this is just some sort of delay that is normal (the website says it could take 24 hours, but this seems kind of bizarre to me). Can anyone confirm?
Some of you know I have been using a pre-paid Sim Chip in my cell phone for my phone/internet service.
These past three days, my crippled data speeds have become unbearable. Time-outs caused notes to both Google Drive and Evernote to disappear into the digital ether, never to be seen or heard from again. After searching terms such as "HTC One X speeds straight talk" and "straight talk sim speeds" I began to see a pattern. People complaining of arbitrary throttling, and conflicting press releases by Tracfone Wireless and América Móvil, the parent copany of tracfone, straight talk, net10, Assure wireless, and others.
After trying the suggestions found on reputable android websites like XDA Developers and Droid FOrums I had no reliefe, and so sent an email to the corproate resolutions team at Straight talk (not the first time I've had to do this, as they tried to **** me out of at least $32 earlier this year with false advertising.)
Poor Connection Speeds
I am experiencing very poor connection speeds with my BYOP sim card. My phone is an HTC One X (ATT Version). phone number [redacted] straighttalk email registered via this account UN: [redacted]
I have set all of the APN settings to the defaults on the card and on the website.
Create a new APN with the following values:
APN Name: Straight Talk
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: http://proxy.mvno.tracfone.com
Port: 80 MMSC: http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.33 MMS
Port: 80
I have also tried variations on this APN with no luck. Other solutions tried include powercycling the phone, changing the type of default data connection, cycling the "airplane mode" on and off, cycling from 2/3G to 2G and back, updating the radio stack and baseband in my phone, and connecting to and disconnecting from a wifi network. None of these solutions has made a dent in the data speeds, which makes me fairly well certain that the problem is not with my hardware's ability to recieve signal.
At best my connection speed in Ottumwa IA is 223 kbps, and often only half that. And yet people sitting right next to me with Straight Talk phones or sim cards can easily get 1000+ kbps. The phone is not an issue, it's capable of a huge variety of frequencies and standards, and many of them are offered in my area via both ATT and Tmo towers in Ottumwa, IA. This issue has also been consistent across all of my ownership time of the SIM card. If this is a "cap" as has been widey discussed in the tech press, then it should restart with my new billing period. That has not been the case, as these slow data speeds have remained fairly consistent since I purchased the card in January, including a service lapse and reactivation.
It concerns me that I have read examinations on multiple forums and in the press from knowledgable users that there is a difference between the sim card program and the straight talk branded phones, and that users of the sim program are not only throttled, but also purposely targeted for slower speed standards in general. It is seriously affecting my usage of my phone, as in the last few days, critical apps such as Evernote and Google Drive have experienced timeouts resulting in lost data.
Straight Talk has already upset me once as a company and it took my contacting consumer advocacy groups to recieve a satisfactory resolution to that issue. The fact that I still utilize the service is a show of my good faith with it, but if these performance issues cannot be addressed, I am afraid that I will have to join many others singling the company out for criticism.

You'll notice the specific proxy and port called out by the APN when android 2.1 or newer can easily auto-propegate these fields. It has been determined by people more knowledgable than myself that that combination of proxy and port specifically funnels SIM users to a pre-throttled branch of the network when compared with people using branded straight-talk phones.
Dear Lawrence,
We do apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. I just checked your account on our system and found out that your data has been reduced. Furthermore, your data speed will be restored at a reduced speed 24 hours after an airtime card is added to your service end date. Should you have further questions, feel free to send us an email.
Sincerely,
Tyler
Straight Talk Wireless
Thank you for your patience, while we respond to your inquiry.

TLR if you ever even once go over the undisclosed cap of 1.5 gb... your connection will be throttled to >222 kbps. PERMANENTLY.
Since all of the Tracfone services under all the different names utilize the same back end, this will likely also be true of any other smart phone on a tracfone wireless service.
Then I guess I will be telling everyone I come in contact with to steer clear of any Tracfone subsidiary, as well as once again contacting the BBB and lodging another complaint. Thank you for confirming my worst suspicions about your company. This is the second time I have been baited and switched by you folks and I will not be giving this company a third chance, regardless of any offers you make to me.
Sincerely

when I first signed up for the service in january, I purchased a $30 limited airtime card. when I tried to activate it, I learnd that it was "illegal" to use on the smart phone program. even though I had prior written confrimation from Straight Talk customer service that I could do just that. They then tried to keep my money for THAT card as; well as make me either eat the $14.99 I had paid for the sim card, or pay another $45 plus tax and fees for the "unlimited" card.
In fact, it's only been in the last month, after numerous complaints like mine, that they began marking on their websites and packaging that smartphones MUST use the $45 unlimited plan or higher.
So, as per my promise to this company I am passing along my experience as a warning and cautionary tale. do NOT do business with TracFone, NET10 Wireless, Straight Talk, SafeLink Wireless, Telcel América and Simple Mobile. You will be bond for nothing but tears and trouble when you need their service most and they decide you're no longer profitable enough.
Sorry to hear about all the trouble your having. I've got a BYOP StraightTalk sim too but I'm on T-Mobile's network. I've abused the heck out of my data so far but haven't noticed reduced speeds and I'm pretty sure I've gone way beyond 1.5 GB. Could this just be the case for folks on an AT&T sim?
For some reason you have just had bad service with straight talk. I've been running straight talk for the past 6 months and have never had ANY problems. One month I used about 7 gigs of data ( a rogue app) and they did throttle me for the rest of that service month to 25kbps but the minute I refilled my account the throttle was lifted and I was regularly seeing 7mbps HPSA+ again. Since then I have used 2 and 2.5 gigs and have not got any texts or calls telling me I was using too much data and I have not been throttled.
Furthermore they have advertissed that the $30 card cant be used with smartphone before last month. I knew it six month ago when I first got my sim.
And you dont even have to enter the proxy into the apn for the service to work. Been using my phone since the beginning of this year with no proxy just fine. Oh and by the way I'm extremely satisfied with the service I get. I got about a 2 dollar discount for using auto refill so for unlimited text, unlimited talk, the best coverage in the nation, and a soft limited of somewhere around 3-4 gigs of data, I would say $42.50 a month is a deal that cant be beat by ANY OTHER service provider today.
Ha, pretty funny we keep winding up in the same places. I've been with straight talk for about the same amount of time also without trouble, although slow data speeds today. Other than that I have absolutely no complaints.

sorry to hear about your troubles but I can say this least
For the past 2 to 2 and a half months I have currently been using a net10 SIM before I got my HTC One. I first jumped on the band wagon of Net10 SIM when I got Samsung Galaxy Note ( Orignal) for $200 dollars. I found the net10 sim package at my local game stop for around $15 dollars. In that package there is three SIM options : One for AT&T branded or unlocked phones; One for a T-Mobile Branded or unlocked phones; and one micro SIM for AT&T branded or unlocked phones. I paid a small fee and had my Note unlocked and used the full sized AT&T sim. Got great speeds on HSPA+ ( between 4 and 8 mbps). However when I activated the SIM on their website they notified me, albeit in the small print , that if I used an AT&T sim that at 1.5 gb of use they WOULD throttle the speed down the snail ass slow. But on the left side of the screen they announced that if the AT&T SIM users want to switch to T-Moblie service instead that they would send them a free SIM card to do so. T-Mobile blows in my town as they have no 3g ony their EDGE service which isnt worth a damn with a 4g phone. So I'm limited on the service as far as GSM is concerned . With AT&T I get the back haul 4g its not LTE but still pretty snappy. The first month my 5 year old blew threw the 1.5 gb and instead of throttling me they just cut data out completely. Then they proceed to say that if you do that and add a service card before your service end date then then it does nothing for you data speed. it has to be on or after the service end date. I waited till the day my service ended and add an "unlimited" service card. However that did nothing. It was three DAYS before I had ANY data the two more days till my speeds were on par with what they were at the begaining. So all I can say is really RESEARCH the service you want and as always learn first hand. I am currently using the micro SIM in my OneX
and so far so good. I just use wifi when and wherever I can and keep and eye on my data usage. Other than the BS at first its pretty good for what you pay.
I've personally noticed network speed decreasing with the ownership of any prepaid GMS sim card.that I've tried (h20, straight talk, simple mobile)
Straight Talk completely turned off my data. Data does not work at all, Mms doesn't work. Which is why I'm switching service providers at the end of the month. I've had no problems for about the first 2 months. Then I pay for this month's and my data is cut off. I'm not going to keep paying for something that doesn't work. My little sister has an iPhone 4 on straight talk and her data is constantly off one day then on the next.

I was wondering if you fixed this problem. I have the HTC one x and have the exact same issue I have tried everything and phone still acts up. If so could you email me the solution please my email is [email protected] Thanks
Confirmed with Net10 also
Just to report same thing with me.. I had an HTC Vivid branded Att and also a Galaxy S3. I was duped into using the Net10 service and everything was fine until I flashed a different ROM on my girlfriends S3 and all the sudden I couldnt get any mobile data. I searched and re flashed roms and thought I wiped her radio. I felt like a noob for the weekend then finaly I tried puting the sim card from my Vivid into her phone and everything worked fine. I put her sim card in my phone and I couldnt get any data. Then I got heated because I just spent 2 days and nights messing with this phone, my girlfriend now thinks Im incompetent. and I never received any type of warning and new that I didnt use that much data.
Well that monday about noon I realized that I didnt have any data on my phone either. I called the worthless customer service to ask what the deal was and talked to a gentleman in India who after 30 mins told me that I reached my limit on data. I have an unlimited data plan that costs me 50.00 x2 a month. it was the 18th so a little over a half of a month I supposedly reached a limit that doesnt exist. I asked to buy more data with no luck.
Here is a company that offers unlimited but then says I reached my limit after about 2.5 weeks without any email or warning. They have no problem emailing me for dumb ****. Then I have no option to purchase more. I know that most people would say I just had a bad go. But I can assure you that this company doesnt want your business so dont give it to them.
Net10 Straight Talk Tracfone ALL THE SAME COMPANY
Use them if you want to but you will be throttled and possibly shut down. I had a smartphone that I couldnt use for a month. Im now with Tmobile and its not much better. I have no service in alot of areas that I frequent. Im not sure if any of them are worth a damn.

I'm going to have to change my opinion here I just paid my bill on the 1st. And on the third I was having issues sending a mms. Well knowing how much I screw with the phone I assumed it was something I did.. then I noticed when I left home and my WiFi disconnected I had no data at all... Now I'm pis**d off, call customer service after looking at my data usage.. 26mb used. I get the typical india rep that says they have no idea why. Then I ask for a supervisor and the guy says ok. I'm placed on hold only for the line to be answered by a machine telling me about high data usage.. I was like Bulls**t and called back. I get pumped to same message 4 times.. now keep in mind it's was a holiday here in the US so I had quite a few beers flowing through me. I finally called back from my wife's line and refused to give my cell number or name till I had a supervisor on the line. After tearing him a new one he reset my account and I verified I had data and at normal speeds. Then I had him give me the number to the corporate office, I called and received the message about calling back between normal business hours. I'm calling them Monday and gonna have some fun, polite but pissed attitude. I'll post the results of the call and may even record it and post that. See how it goes this time.
Only thing better than customer service is finally getting the phone number directly to the main corporate office in Florida.

i used to be an Sprint user, i was paying like $165 for 2 lines , the Internet was very slow sometimes, so i looked Information of cheaper carriers and good service and i Found Straight Talk,. that uses T-Mobile and At&t network, ( depends of your Sim Card ) so i bought 2 at&t sim cards from Ebay, like $70 dollars each, and i bought this awesome device too , and i unlocked the iphone 4s ( sprint iphone ) of my daughter with GPP and now i been using Straight Talk service $45 UNLIMITED, ( $90 dollars for both phones ) and the internet is very fast , i don't know what it is, but i guess is because i have the AT&T Straight Talk sim card . i'm very happy with this new service. :laugh:
btw, i tried this APN settings, but,...
