As i understand it, MIUI doesn't support 4G.. but a lot of people here seem to like it.
For those of you using MIUI with otherwise decent 4G coverage from t-mo, is it a big sacrifice to give it up?

MiUi doesn't give up HSPA+. Who ever told you that is lying. The radio files are not a member of the ROM. If the radio file you have supports HSPA+ then you will get HSPA+ on MiUi.

Don't know why the OP would think such a thing....A rom won't remove 3G or 4G from your phone, unless you physically remove the radio parts from the device. You will get 3G & HSPA+[4G] on miui, only if you are in the coverage area.

I have no idea either. I've never seen a post that leads one to believe that any ROM will take away HSPA+.
I've seen where people say that "4G" or "H" no longer appears but you are still getting the service regardless of what the phones.
Ok thanks, this is helpful. I guess I am confusing with HSPA+ and perhaps LTE.
There's many posts that mention MIUI doesn't support "4G" and probably won't until China gets "4G". I'm guessing this is LTE they are talking about?

Hspa+ is only one radio. So you will always have 4g. MIUI doesn't support wimax radio. Which is sprint band which has one radio for 3g and another for 4g.

I have been using Miui on my HTC sensation and I can't get 2g, 3g or 4G. I only get regular cell. I can't even connecct to the marketplace as it says no connection. And I've tried about everything.
The evo has no wimax (4G) support on any MIUI ports. That is another example of the no 4G support. Easy mistake for someone to make, I suppose. Now they know.

Try wiping everything. After backing up that is; and doing a clean install. I've seen your issue with some people who were just installing over.

You guys should try out this app. It reports coverage and performance in your area to give a better idea which carrier and device are the best for cell phone networks.

APK
Mine shows 0 bars, lol
EDIT: It would appear the epic will only report zero bars, no matter what the signal strength is. Other Sprint phones work fine, something is borked.
First!
Just downloaded this app n I'm messing with it
Seems kinda cool
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I had to sync data before it showed any bars. Mine said 2.00, and that Jacksonville Florida is covered the best by Sprint. Idk if the app is just using my own carrier to display that though. I did this on a Nexus S 4G and now it's Sprint's top ranked phone in my area. LOL
Let's see if this one actually works. Sensorly reports all areas as 0/4 evdo coverage on the epic. No fix from the dev after many emails. Makes the maps untrusted big time. I tried the root metrics one and it does not report anything up in areas.
Wow...not what I thought at all...it doesn't map anything?
Clearwire also has a 4G coverage app on the market. "Got Clear?"

It's meant to be a statistics app, for now. It will have more features later.
Yeah, this doesnt work. I always get 0 bars with epic.... other phones work though, according to that chart thing..
I think the same reason this doesn't work on the Epic is the same reason Roam Control won't work on the Epic in Texas. Something about the tower tech if I remember correctly. Not sure on the details.

Not related at all. Roam control works fine everywhere. Its just the modem fails to roam on the PCS band. Seen it for myself. Stock Epic and stock TP2 with the same PRL. The TP2 had full Verizon signal on 1900mhz. Epic was searching for signal.
Are you guys running stock or a modded ROM? A theme without a proper network fix would have this error.
Wtf, Sprint is going to get a bad reputation from this application because it doesn't work at all.

Edited OP to let people know this isn't working right on the epic. I think this is an epic specific issue because Evo (4g and 3D) owners' scores appear normal and even pretty good ~3.5 bars. It appears that only the epic isn't cooperating.
Only one I have seen work on the Epic is Cellumap. Seems like the other devs need to ask that dev how he does it
I've rooted my phone using the Ace Hack Kit a month ago and since then I have been having awful times with my 3G connection. I hardly get it, when I'm lucky I get EDGE, and I'm not even talking about callings that were also affected. I've tried several different Radios and I still didn't get a solution. I'm in Brazil and would like to know if there could be any connection of the rooting to the connection problems.
Thanks A LOT!

Ok so why call something 4g service when it's really just 3g service. That's lying to customers! We Won't see 4g until 2013 it seems! Kinda makes me want to leave Tmobile!

Another challenge will be in the confusion brought on by its own definition of 4G. Since 2010, T-Mobile renamed its HSPA+ network--widely considered a 3G technology--its 4G network. With the widespread availability of HSPA+, T-Mobile was able to boast of having the nation's largest 4G network.

But yet they call it 4g and throttle you when you go over the really 3g service! Stupid!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Semantics... It is what it is - doesn't matter what you call it.
If you're going to leave a good provider that has good rates for something as petty as that, you've got bigger issues than T-Mobile calling their service 4g...
That's just my opinion though... No offense intended.

not sure if you know or don't know, but even LTE is not considered 4G
true 4G is still far away from any service
all the service providers are advertising 4G but they are all fake, as non of them really meets the 4G specifications
First of all know your facts . Now the person who said late isn't really 4g is right. But on another note in certain areas T-Mobile is just as fast as Verizon and sprint . I get speeds of 15 - 20 mbps. Its all about area that you are in.

True 4g is atleast 100mbps and guess what nobody hits that. Its all bull but yes lte is def faster then hspa+. Only the uneducated think that these bs services are real 4g and sadly not to many people know really just how fast 4g is supposed to be if they did these companys would have a problem
im from phoenix and i get "4G" almost anywhere in the valley, not so much when indoors , but it is kinda fast ...
Ill takes my fake 4G battery life ove LTE!
sent from the Dark §¡3€
lol.... really?
The whole "4g" is just a marketing gimmick, but i don't really care as long as im getting 11500kbps download most of the time, sometime i even get 15000kbps.
It was a big deal before about this basically any company with new technology is consider 4g now. Hspa+ can be 4g if it reached 100 mbs. The network must reach over 100mbs not any phone. Lte isn't consider 4g either but lte-A is considered 4g.
i dont want to be mean or anything but this is really really old news and probably has been posted a million and a half times. no carrier in the world has true LTE Advanced which is set to be "real" 4G. All the current "4G" monikers are just stopgaps until they can implement LTE Advanced or a 4G compliant WiMAX.
I wouldnt quit just because tmo is advertising 4G when it really does not, because you'll be stuck looking for a 4G compliant carrier with nothing to switch to.

If im not mistaken, I think you can still connect to "regular" 4g if LTE isnt available
Or do you just not 4g where you live in general?
Pretty certain there is no wimax (regular 4g) on the new Evo. I've read the 8960 chip can't/doesnt support it. So I don't believe that's an option.

Sprints "regular" 4g is wimax. I'm pretty certain this phone will not support wimax.
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
