I know that 4g is better than HSUPA and 3g.
I recently upgraded my phone to Gingerbreadman.
That upgrade made my phone from HSUPA (HSPA) to 3g connection.
Im not quiet sure if it made my connection slower or its the same.
can anyone tell me more informations about this connection? The 3g word has been bothering me(maybe because ive been so used to looking at the HSPA)

What were your speeds like before you did this "upgrade", and what are they like now?
HSUPA has to do with upload
HSDPA has to do with download
HSPA is 3G
HSPA+ is 3.5G which is what at&t calls "4G"
LTE is true 4G and at&t doesn't offer this as of now.

Does the ROM you are using have the H+ symbol or does it just show 3G or H?
I think, regardless of what it shows, as long as your data speeds are not affected, then its normal.

Hello all,
I recently bought the HTC sensation with tmobile service. Im having a problem with the phone connecting to 3g service. It will connect to 4g then in the same location within my house it will drop to 2g. When i have 4g the signal strength is very low around 1 bar. I understand that it would go to a lower speed when it loses the connection but shouldn't it go to 3g before going to 2g? I used to have the HD2 (screen sensor broke) and it always had a strong 3g signal so i do have 3g coverage in my area. When the phone goes down to 2g it has full bars but as you probably know 2g is practically worthless when using the internet.
I talked to tmobile and they said the recent software update fixed some connectivity issues but after installing it, i still have the same problem and now tmobile is saying they dont have any further troubleshooting ideas. So i thought i would turn the the real experts at xda. Thanks in advance for your response!
I'm not even sure if the Sensation has a 3G option?
Nope only 4g and 2g buddy. 3g does happen but no icon for it. I know stupid!!!!!

Yea that is stupid. How hard would it be to add that? Thanks for your help!

Well if you flash a euro rom you get an h for high speed and thats your 4g and a 3 thats 3 g and then an e for 2g i believe.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
I guess its really not that big of a deal. I actually turned off the 2g capability so it always gets 4g. sometimes its only 1 bar but thats much better then 5 bars of 2g. I guess if i go outside the 4g range ill have to turn it back on but hopefully they will have an update when i do.
Well im about to root the phone using this tutorial-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952352
And my phone is unlocked already will i have to unlock it again after the root? Also if i root the phone will i be able to get 3g or 4G speeds on the Tmobile will the frequencies be right? Because i heard if the phone is just unlocked the frequencies are different.
Please reply ASAP!
Thanks
All you will get on tmo is edge. Also you can't have root without being s off.

T-Mobile have different UMTS frequencies (UMTS 900, UMTS 1700, UMTS 2100 instead of AT&T's UMTS 850, UMTS 1900), therefore only edge will work.

Even 256 Kbps is enough for the mobile Internet (IM, mail, news...) in my case, but, I agree that 3G was better.

Hi,
I recently unlocked this phone and have been using it on Tmobile. My data is EDGE only and its frustrating. Yesterday, however, I left Brooklyn, where I live, for Great Adventures in New Jersey. As we were approaching the theme park my signal changed from EDGE to H+ and stayed that way for 10 hours. It returned to EDGE when we left the park. So, its possible to get more than EDGE if there's a concentration of mobile towers, which is what I am assuming happened.

No. What matters is frequency used by T-Mobile. Currently they are in the process of refarming their 1900mhz to 3g. Their is no way of knowing where they are testing and or activating the 1900 band. The only known place was in the bay area during the last apple event. You must have a found a spot. Its one of those you have to wait for tmo to reach your area

edge is really slow. it slower then 3g. why do you use an AT&T phone on t-mobile. is it the prepaid plan. if so their are a few prepaid that run on att network. If you went att prepaid you would get 3g minium if not more. i'm using a company called red pocket mobile. its not bad but it 55.00 a month i get unlimited talk text and 1gb of data. might wanna look into it. hope it helps.
I have got a Chinese 64gb OnePlus One and official CM11s33r installed.I flashed many roms,modems and unlocked all the bands Qualcomm supports.Obviously 2g has native support by Oneplus One but i cannot activated.By the way i have 3g signal yet its very weak and unstable.
What do you think? How can i solve this huge problem?

I think your miss understanding it... The phone you have is a D850 AT&T model. AT&T models show 3G as 4G.. So your phone is working on 3G.

I still don't think your understanding. If your seeing 4G at the top of your phone that is 3G. If you see "4G LTE" then your on LTE/4G
