[Q] Froyo Darkstone 3.2, where is 3G?

Does anyone have 3G on their phone with this build? I'm a Tmobile US customer and I'm using Froyostone Sense 3.2, my signal and apn are working fine but do not get any 3G on it, just E, H, and G most of time but not 3G, anybody know why?

lol.. this has been asked numorous times.. H > 3G
3G = UMTS
H = HSDPA/HSPA
although for HSPA+ on the G2.. they should have an H+ icon.
go google it

Can not get an internet connection.
I am a T-Mobile US user and I booted Froyo Stone 3.2 on my HTC HD2 for the first time ever like two days ago, complete nooby here. Been searching the forums for advice. Was wondering what you did to get your internet connections.hope you can help. The Froyo Stone build is awsome.

Just settle up your APN and switch your Network Mode to GMS only from GSM/WCDMA auto. Beside sometimes you gotta unmount your SD card and mount it back when your signal drop or stop recieving. Shouldn't be no problem for you to get internet connection right away.

Thanks so much for the advice R3oDaWhOa I literally stayed up all night last night digging through the Froyo Stone 3.2 build thread and I finally come across the APN fix with a step by step walk through wish I could remember the name of the user That posted it so I could give him proper credit too. Thanks again though.

[Q] issues with connection speed on rooted inspire 4G/DHD

I am having a strange problem with the connection speed on my inspire 4g. it is always in G or in E, never in H (this refers to the symbols displayed in the info bar, corresponding to Edge, G2 and High Speed respectively). It has nothing to do with my sim (i have put it in another phone, went into H no problems) and it has nothing to do with the network (my friend's cheapo HTC Hero is on H all the time).
I am outside the US. The phone is a HTC inspire 4g, which i bought new and decoded. Here are the steps i have been through:
- I have rooted the phone and initially installed Inspired 4G ROM; This has not solved the problem;
- I have then wiped it and made a clean install with LeeDroid ROM 2.2.3; this has also not solved the problem;
- i have flashed the radio with Radio_12.28g.60.140f_26.05.05.27_M2; still the problem continues
I am running out of ideas, why would such a smart phone not connect to a readily available High speed network?
By The way, i have dialed *#*#4636#*#* - i have tried to set the preferred network type to both WCDMA preferred and various other GPS/CDMA auto PRL, etc - no change. the phone info in this menu shows "network type:GPRS". in my friend's HERO (again same network, same place, same provider, same sim card), if i enter this menu, it says "Network type:HSDPA"
Any ideas? What's going on here?

Did it work prior to updating rom? If not, the carrier that you are using may not be on the 2100mhz/900mhz high speed bands that the dhd uses. I made this mistake and purchased a dhd without checking and I'm stuck with gprs/edge, mainly using 850mhz 2g not 3g ... until I change to a carrier that use 2100mhz/900mhz or upgrade to another phone

Did you mange to sort this out? I have a similar problem with DHD. It seems to be stuck on G. When I first installed lee droid ROM it was working fine and I got H appearing and fast download speeds ( used traffic monitor to prove the speeds) all of a sudden it seems to be stuck on the G icon.
I have has this issue for a while, i have checked all the setting on the phone (*#*#4636#*#* and connection settings). I thought it could have been my sim, I tested my mates sim on my phone( same network). when I put my sim back it I got the H network again. This only lasted for a few days and it has now gone again.
I have done tests using traffic monitor I only get speeds between 21 Kbit/s on the mobile network. In my archive I can see when I was connected to the H network , I was downloading 289 Kbit/s.
I have not flashed the radio yet as im not sure which one I should be using but surely it cant the radio as it was working on the H network twice.
I am running lee droid 2.6.35.14 Ace 3.2.1
band base version: 12.28b.60.140eu_ 26.03.02.26_M
Any ideas why this is happening?

I have that same issue STUCK ON EDGE
I need to revive this thread. I used ace hack kit released oct.27 and hack went perfect. I installed ARHD 6.1.3 and i couldnt get on H and also the rom itself was unresponsive and would do all kinds of crazy things. I downgraded to 6.1.1 which i had put on my brothers phone and worked great but exact same issue on the new one here. So then I tried old faithful ARHD 5.1.11 and the rom works perfect but im still stuck on edge network. I get full signal almost all the time in a 4G area but only get edge. Im set on GSM/WCDMA auto, I tried to go WCDMA only and i lost all signal and it switched itself back to auto. Im totally outta ideas. Im in canada, could it be that this phone is the Euro DHD? How can I check?

Who is your carrier? you might have to delete current APN settings and set up a new one. Just search for new APN via google.

All of a sudden I've lost 4G reception! HELP!!

Hi All,
First time poster with an unusual problem. I live in Australia and have a Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900F which is the European model. Up and till recently I was getting Telstra 4G reception. Now all of a sudden I'm only getting constant 3G reception. I have confirmed that there are no 4G network repair/maintenance/upgrade issues in my area. It was only in the last week that I noticed the constant 3G reception so I can't really pinpoint a specific incident or exact date as to when it actually started happening. Here is what I have tried thus far:
Phone restarts, changing network settings and switching to flight mode.
I've confirmed that the phone network is set to LTE/WCDMA/GSM (auto connect).
I have done numerous hard resets, cache wipes, Dalvik cache wipes, drive wipes, etc.
I have rooted and unrooted the phone numerous times.
I have tried several different stock and custom ROMS.
I have tried 4G SIM cards from other phones.
Tried numerous network switching apps.
NOTHING WORKS!
I always love to tinker with my phone so I'm always looking for ways to improve the phone's performance. It may be that an app (battery improvement/tweaking type apps) I installed somehow changed the network settings but I would have thought a million hard resets would have sorted that all out but apparently not. At the moment I'm running a rooted stock Android 5.1 ROM. I've tried stock Android 4 and 6 as well with no joy.
Here is the unusual thing. When I put in another 4G SIM card into my phone the network still remains on 3G but as soon as I put my SIM card back in 4G magically reappears. It's bizarre. At least I know my phone can still get 4G. You would think that would solve the problem but it doesn't. When I am in an area where the 4G signal is weak the stronger 3G signal kicks in as it is supposed to. When I get back into an area with strong 4G reception the phone remains stuck on 3G and no matter what I do it won't go back to 4G unless I go through the convoluted process described above.
I am all out of ideas. I think I have tried everything possible. I've trawled the web and I appear to be the only person in the world with this problem. I don't know if it is a software or hardware problem with my phone. My SIM card works in other 4G phones so I don't think it is part of the problem. At the end of the day it's not a big deal as 3G is fine but I'm just one of these people that has to fix a problem. Worst case scenario I'll probably upgrade the phone in the next 6 months.
Any suggestions or tips other than what I have listed above would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
