Hey guys,
I have a T-Mobile Sensation 4G and was wondering why does the phone only show 4G, 2G, and G as a my service? I used to have the Samsung Vibrant and I would get 3G, Edge, and G. Does this mean everytime there is no 4G I automatically go down to 2G? Does the Sensation not support 3G? Is there a way to change this?
Thanks for your help guys. Hoping to figure this out.
Mine does the same. It's perfectly normal too since t-mobile's "4G" is technically just a beefed up 3G which means you're connected to the same towers that you were before with your old phone. If you have 4G in your area it means that your 3G towers are your new 4G towers. So if you have no 4G then you literally have no 3G and with switch to 2G. Make sense?

Let me go a step further to describe/explain our new signal layout.
4G = 4G, H or 3G
2G = Edge
G = 1G, 1x
I hope that makes it a bit easier to understand,.
well everyone i rooted my Inspire 4G and recently i have been getting 3G when i should have HSPA+ right now but its switching between the H+ symbol and the 3G symbol back when it was unrooted all i had was Edge (2G) and HSPA+ so idk but i need conformation that my phone is still in prime condition please help! and thanks if you do
From the dialer, type *#*#4636#*#* and see what it shows for network type. Mine shows HSPDA which is faux g. If it shows UMTS, then you are on 3G.
The symbols are different as to which ROM you have installed. They seem to mean very little as your real connection.
Thanks guys!
Is it possible to use a 4g LTE phone on a regular old 4g network? I know that, out of the box, it is not. But, could one, for instance, swap out the firmware for the radio and get it an LTE phone working on a regular 4g network?
Hi , so i have a sprint htc one and i get lte but the default icon looks like its 4g . I pefer the lte icon im bearly rooted my device and im new to the roms and stuff
Is anyone on tmobile getting LTE icon instead of 4G? 4G is the highest I can get in preferred network type, not sure if this is normal..
EDIT: looks like this is normal for asus phone. 4G = LTE. When I dail *#*#4636#*#* and phone information, it shows LTE as network type.
