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!

Hey all simple question to see if this has happened to anyone else. A couple of days ago I got the dreaded you are now throttled text. However, my data speed hasn't changed one lil bit. I haven't implemented any throttle mods or anything like that. Has anybody else ever experienced this?
Yeah, quite a few people experience that. The throttle seems to be hit or miss. If you read the defunct throttle fix thread, you'll see a lot of folks don't get throttled at all even though they get the text. I get throttled at exactly 5gb now, text or not. I'm jealous of you.

I think some major cities have different ways of throttling because when I'm throttled I'm at 5 or 6 down and 1 up and sometimes it doesn't happen

Seems like you already got what you need but I was in the same boat 2 days ago and came up with two different files, both labeled for sprint and both didn't break anything when I tried them. Any one got an idea of the difference and which is actually the 'preferred' one to use?

I'm on cm7 1.2 nightly with ronin kernel 4 and using roam control newest apk and data works sometimes takes up to a minute to connect. If its quirky I can get 3g on spring then hit roam and 3g picks up fast using 1115 and roaming. Also I couldn't get reliable 3g roaming unitl I moved to the ronin kernel

It works... you have to go in settings for network and enable both national and international roaming. Atleast that's the way it was a month ago.
Or ur in an area where verizon data is on a different feq that sprint phones don't support. I've seen it a lit in Florida...

Where did you find this and how much data do you pull per month? I'm curious about this as I'd like to be able to do something similar, but I don't want to raise any red flags and get a kind 'GTFO' message from Sprint because I roam too much.
Also, since I'm usually in an area with 4G, would I be able to still use it if I'm on the same PRL you are?
" I'm now on prl 00001. Permaroamed to vzw. 3g speeds are 4x that of sprint's. "
+ 1 can you post a link/zip. I'll take the chance at getting the boot for faster speeds
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Wooot! Nevermind I got data just now by waiting around in the settings menu after using roam control. Wow Verizons 3g speeds are great lol...

Noticed a slight improvement in some areas with this PRL. But nothing to make me throw a party.

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.

That is NOTHING but a Lie.... The HTC Sensation does not even have LTE Bands.... :laugh: And it would not say 4G LTE, It would show just LTE. If your Phone was showing 4G that means 3G/HSPA+ on T-Mobile...
I know that the sensation isn't a lte phone.and to be honest there's no such thing as a lte phone that just a gimmick to sell phones.I even called T-Mobile and told them about it and the guy said that it is possible that it occurred because T-Mobile is doing lte testing in las Vegas right now.I personally could careless who believes me.I was just sharing what I seen on my sensation so call me a liar it don't bother me at all. Takecare

Did you see "4G" or "LTE"
Both.I has lte right next to 4G.call T-Mobile and ask them if they are doing lte testing in Vegas.why would I lie what do I have to gain except better cell service.

You do know that does NOT make any since! Its either you will see 4G or LTE at the top not both lol.
It dont matter even if they were testing it your phone WONT GET IT! your phone WONT get the bands for LTE it will NEVER see LTE in its life. The ONLY phone that ever can right now is the Note II that I know of.
By rights yes I understand what you mean that why I don't how the heck I got it on my sensation.the T-Mobile tech guy said that there's no such thing as a lte phone they just say that a particular phone phone is to make money its all a gimmick and I personally couldn't believe that someone from T-Mobile was telling me this.he called it a buzz name meaning b.s. basically.I wish I wouldn't of even said anything now.sorry for the confusion sir.

Unless your running a custom rom, or anything like that. You can change the Icons around under SYSTEMUI.apk and can make my phone show what I want at the top and it not be. if you did see that next time go to settings and status and it will tell you what your really on.
I'm running so custom ROM.If it ever forms it again I will post a pic.
