So my question is that ever since the launch of the MyTouch 4G I had it n loved it, but I never saw "HSPA+" or "HSPA" under settings> about phone> phone status > scroll down and I look at mobile networks and it always says "HSDPA"!? Basically I'm asking if HSDPA is the so called 4G, or am I not in the 4G coverage area? I live in Washington DC! I went to T-Mobile.com already and checked the 4G coverage area, and it seems that I should have 4G! Sorry if this was a dumb question!

Is simple mobile data better than t-mobile? Is it really unlimited and stays at 4g with no cap?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
No. It has a 5GB cap.

There is defiantly a 1 Gb cap and I went through the Mytouch 3G, Mytouch slide and Mytouch4G while with them and always had problems with mms messages it's like if the picture size was to big it was a problem receiving pictures.
Never heard of simple mobile is it like tmobile ?
I had a mytouch4g. I loved the phone but hated the service from T-Mobile. I would get no bars of 3g in my home. I couldn't browse the web or download apps without getting on my wifi. Calls were dropped all the time. It would also take hours to send and receive pictures. I got fed up and got a phone with Verizon and I'm loving the reception.

It's a MVNO using T-Mobile's network.
I been with simple mobile for about 6months now and there is no data cap regardless of what some people believe.
But if you use up too much bandwidth with apps like Netflix they will throttle you back to 2g .
I'm always streaming music or on the net or on YouTube and I haven had any issue with that.just don't use Netflix or any app similar or any bittorrent or tethering and you will be fine.

There speeds are the same as T-mobile but 1 thing I totally forgot if you use data to fast they will throttle you instantly 1 month I was on a flashing spree and instead of restoring my apps on wifi I was doing it on the network. They throttled me with a little over 1Gb of use they figured I was using my phone as a Hot spot and would not unthrottle me after I called to complain and tell them I was leaving.

Noticed a slight improvement in some areas with this PRL. But nothing to make me throw a party.
Man if sprint turned their 4g towers to 3g and. What not i would never complain again all i can say is i get poor service in my area and it sucks cuz i gotta surf wifi all over town (sad face)

I get Hellua strong 3G almost anywhere around town. It's when I start going up North that it goes downhill. Farther North you go, Crappier it gets.
At work I get a better 4G signal than 3G. At home it's the other way around.

In the same boat, 4G at work and 3G at home; guess where I get better battery life?

Sent from my SONY WALKMAN using JellySony Rom
I did it like this:
1.go to settings ->wireless & networks ->mobile networks -> network preferences & switch to WCDMA only
2. Uncheck 'use only 2G networks'
3. Now wait for sometime till signal changes & u will see H instead of E on the status bar
4. If the signal vanishes after switching to 'WCDMA only' switch back to 'GSM only'
Feedback is welcome, try & give feedback here:beer:

Depends on your service provider. Typically, the more you pay the faster the speed.
The advice is free....the bandwidth, not so much
