It is definitely HSDPA compatible but you would need to flash a new radio (KB3) as the stock radio is capped.
Have a look in the development section for more details.

Hi to the Nexus S users. I got a brand new Nexus S 4g this past Saturday coming from a DINC. I'm running CM7 stable. Is anyone having signal issues/slow 3g speeds by the way?

Can't say for sure since I have a Tmo NS but having had Sprint I can tell you my wife and I had those issues with all Sprint phones. Their 3g speeds SUCK.
Make sure you have ke5 or ke1 radio

How do I switch radios and which should I use? I want faster 3g speeds lol actually what I want is a lower, stable ping lol
sent from my Touchwiz'd Nexus S 4g
Sprint is upgrading yhe network so it might go up and down for awhile
If you have rom manager look under peters section he has the radio updates in his downloads

Having the correct radio will give you better reception, which will give you a more reliable connection. As a result you may see increased speeds. Keyword is may. You can decrease your ping by setting a local server ip your phone first connects to. Search for lowering pings. For radios, flash using fastboot. Please be sure to read up on radio flashing as a mistake could be catastrophic. Good luck

I am also new to the NS4G, having switched from evo 4g. Sprint 3G has always sucked the big one and I don't notice any appreciable difference between nexus and evo speeds.
The phone reception IS quite a bit weaker than the Evo however.

Thanks for the responses guys, how would I go about seeing which radio I have?

Hi, Im looking to buy an Atrix, but here in my country I can buy an "Atrix" which according to GSMarena, its exactly the same as the Atrix 4G, except for 4G speeds and its not AT&T branded.
Would the roms for Atrix 4G would work in an Atrix?
Thanks in advance

h is hspa, its high speed 3g. dont mistake it for tmobiles hspa+(which is even faster 3g, tmo calls it 4g). its normal, thats what you should be seeing if you have hspa in your area.

Welcome to the Nexus S community! You'll love the phone, believe me
As for the "H" it actually stands for HSDPA (which is better than 3G in the term of speed). So basicly its a good thing when your phone shows "H" all the time
ohh I see. well its a freaking great phone!!! haha

hey guys, im planning to stay on cyber. what kernel has most functions out there that will increase wifi range? and battery life?
what cpu settings are good for this? using nsettings
Wi-Fi is more dependent on the radio I believe. I haven't really toyed with CPU speeds on my phone as it's pretty snappy with the stock settings. There are numerous kernels available to use. Download a few and have at it.
I'm planning on buying a Note to use on T-Mobile but I wanna know If it'll get TMOS 3G or 4G. Yes I know that's it's coming to TMO but no one knows when. I hate how slow edge is an I'm always on 52mbps+ wifi but I like to have fast speeds on the go also. I read on Twitter about flashing a T-Mobile modem but idk if that's stable or what. Any help?

Unfortantaly no =( but on the up side a few people are working on it in this thread here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1512298
Some places T-Mobile does support 3G on the 1900 band but right now only a few citys have it up and running. Phoenix is not one of them
I'm in el Paso and even then the 4G isn't that great. But still hate the edge.

Only way is to use another phone as a mobile hotspot...and then use the wifi on the Note. It works, but it's definitely not an ideal situation.
I agree I hope the TMO note comes out before I get my money to get a note

Eww, disgusting Crapdragon processor.
Tmo modem? On twitter? There is none. Dorks are passing off the att one. Do not flash it. It'll mess up your note. In chicago i get mixed 4g and 3g. In the boonies get edge.
When note comes out on tmo, someone will probably extract the radio file and post. Hopefully hardware specs will be the same

The T-Mo note will just be a rebadge AT&T model and will not help us here with the n7000.
The Japanese sc-02c on the other hand has a much better chance of success.
I posted this in a thread earlier but it was a few months old so I thought I might have a better chance posting here. Anyway I have a MT4G (T-Mobile) running 4.2.2 on LiquidSmooth and I cant get anything over 3g even in areas where I previously had awesome 4g service (on stock 2.3.4). I checked my md5 and it does not match any other radio/baseband's md5. I'd really like my 4g back but I also don't want to brick my phone. Currently my md5 is showing up as 60de66c8b88d27b9a3bbae385b7f71dc and have yet to find one anywhere to match it. I am fairly new to rooting androids ( I had an iPhone for like 5 years and I just got fed up with the limitations even when it was jailbroken) I read a forum about extracting the radio.img from a stock rom but I was still iffy about the md5 not matching. Absolutely any advice would be great. Thanks in advance
As far as I know, mt4g only support 3g (hsdpa) networks.

i also noticed the 4g sign. but it's more hspa rather than 4g. our device only supports upto 14.4 Mbps. can't be 4g right?

you're right the mt4g doesn't support 4g :good:
I posted a reply to your question in the other thread, OP.
The 3G/4G arguement is old and mostly opinion based. That would best be skipped
