[Q] (Q) htc inspire unlock 3g network

Hi guys.. I got the inspire 4g unlocked .
I just want to know if there is any way to get
3g or 4g network??
N if there is a way plz help me with that..?
Tnx.
You want 3G data from other than AT&T? That's possible, but depends on where you live. Your post is a little cryptic (you're not a Jedi, are you?). Try to explain a little more about what you are looking for.

Inspire will not work with European 3G bands, it will work with AT&T 3G bands only. So you will only have Edge network in networks other than AT&T compatible networks.

Did you check your career frequencies with your phone spec ? They should match. Is your phone is in WCDMA mode only ? If so change it to GSM only . Then try .

Did it work in GSM mode ?? If so, then the WDCDMA (3g ) band of your career is not campatible with sensation . Sensation 4G supports 900/2100 MHz band for WCDMA. If you country allows 850/1900 MHz for WCDMA , then you have no luck to use WCDMA. Check with your career to clarify this ...
Set the correct apns to the carrier the sim is for
HTC Sensation FAUX G
«Virtuous Inquisition 4.0 ICS»
«6.5.3 ARHD Sense 4.0.3»

In philippines the careers are ,
Service Provider GSM Frequency Band 3G Standard 3G Frequency Band
Globe Telecom 900 MHz/1800 MHz W-CDMA (UMTS) 2100 MHz
Smart Communications 900 MHz/1800 MHz W-CDMA (UMTS) 2100 MHz
Sun Cellular 1800 MHz - -
So if you have a Sensation 4G (US version) or Sensation XE , It should work with Globe tetecom as well as Smart Telecom .
But if you have a Sensation ( Canada Version) , it will not work in WCDMA . It will work only in GSM )

DO you have the correct firmware and radio ? If yes , then I doubt it is a hardware issue.

[[Please Help]] T-mobile HTC Sensation 4G only getting edge on GSM network

Sorry if this seems noobish but I've read all the other threads I could find & I still haven't found a fix for my phone. I'm using a T-mobile HTC sensation 4G on a GSM network outside of america. the phone is fully unlocked & compatible with the 4G bands here but I'm still only able to browse on 2G networks. The APN settings in my phone are correct & work with other phones I've tried to connect to 4G. When I received the phone it was rooted with ICS 4.03 on it. I recently updated it to CM 10.2 AOSP 4.3 Jellybean in hopes that a fix for the problem would be included in the ROM but with no luck. Does anyone know how I could resolve this problem?

[Q] Can I install a AT&T radio in a Verizon M8 Phone?

Hi, i im a GSM international user, i don't need CDMA, but when i have 4G LTE my phone not switch automaticaly to 3G when i need call or calling me, i m using latest InsertCoin ROM with VZW support. I use the phone in GLOBAL mode.The only way my phone calls works is change the mode to 2G/3G and off the 4 G. The HSPA service off my operrator sucks.
I ask this for i was a M7 Sprint use and if i will flash another no sprint radio the phone will be brick. (the radio partition is in different place in m7 sprint Phone).
Thanks
I'm pretty sure you can only flash Verizon radios on Verizon phones. Any other radios you try flashing will most likely brick it.
As said above, radios are unique for each carrier. Flashing. Any other radio will brick the phone.

What you are needing it not available yet. Also, If you aren't S-off I would be very careful about updating.. Many non-vzw users reporting no cell service after L upgrade due to lack of apn support and they are not editable.

Got My update from VZW OTA on Friday, 3/6/2015 With no Problem. I am S off Unlocked, and it sailed through.
Came in 2 segments. I did however have to go back and do an update search for the second segment, which was over 800MB.
Definately want to use WiFi. Took quite a while to complete.

You need to be S-Off for RUU and unlocked boot loader as I remember to gain full root. You can check there are many threads how to gain root.

The only way now is sunshine. You need to do it either you won't be able to get update until dottat make RUU for S-ON users, but I am not sure will you need unlocked bootloader for that.
Hi everyone.
The update to Android 5.0.1 via HTC Sync Manager enable the edit and add APN
The only problem is, LTE not work!
My phone is S-ON and Stock ROM.
Edit and apn ?
What do u mean by enable the edit in htc sync manager and wat apn specifically to add
Maybe contacting Verizon and giving them your IMEI to push you the update
