Is there a way to verify I'm on HSPA+? My area supposedly has it, but my G2's status still shows HSDPA. Is the phone actually connected to HSPA+, but the UI just doesn't reflect it?
The stock rom won't show you the difference between HSPA+ and 3G. You'll only see H, E, or G.
If your willing to root and use a rom like CM, it will show you a 3G icon when its 3G and H when its HSPA+
I don't know how to tell other wise. Sorry.
There is no practical way to distinguish between HS[D|U]PA and HSPA+.
Well, unless you count all the widgets out there that will tell you.
The one I use is called "mobile signal widget"
i have stock rom and i see sometimes 3G or H on my HTC desire Z
Running latest OTA
My desire z only shows 3G or H.

As far as I understand, you will still not be able to tell the difference between HSPA+ and HSPA. I do not know of any definitive way to tell whether or not you are using the HSPA+ protocols.
How does cyano does it on his roms? I would like my icon to be right but I prefer stock rooted roms

The bell site shows my area as having HSPA+ coverage but my desire z only ever shows HSDPA or UMTS when I view network setings. I know I saw someone else's post saying their stock Rom actually said HSPA+ in the status bar when they were connected to it.

Go to phone satus under settings. UMTS = 3G and HSPA = "4G"
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Now it keeps switching between UMTS and HSDPA every few seconds. Anyone ever had that issue?

Popped my sim back into my tab which is flashed to make phone calls and I got hsdpa on att. Made a google search. Loaded it very quickly then kicked me off the network. Had to reboot to get back back on. So does that possibly mean that its att and not the t mous tabs that's keeping them from getting 3g.
I have data roaming off so no chance of wandering to diff network

Try uninstalling juice defender. Juice defender has a problem where it starts making its own decisions and disabling/enabling mobile data whenever it feels needed. I dont think its an att problem. When you rebooted, did u lose connection to the network again after a while?

No its a t mous tab on atts 3g network. That's not supposed to exist

Usually flashing to stock fixes all issues. I would suggest doing that and recustomizing to your needs and seeing if the problem arrives.

Yes by flashing your tab to be able to make phone calls, that means you flash it with a european rom. Your tab turns into a european tab and att use the same band as europe for 3G data. That's why you have 3g and phone capability.
Here's what haopens when I put my sim in.
Keep in mind its a t mobile tab
Tab starts
Tab finds att gets on att network
Tab then picks up hsdpa from att
Tab does google search and then is promptly kicked off the network. Have to restart tab to get back on network.
After restart tab then finds att and edge only. Should I constantly have hsdpa on the flashed. Tmous tab on atts network or is getting it on start up a fluke.

K dialed *#0011# and the tab is definiately getting 3g. Its on wcdma 850 at -105. But the h refuses to appear next to the bars.

It depends on the signal strength. You won't always get H sign, sometimes one meter can make a difference it depends on the place where you are.

T-Mobile TAB hardware supports AWS band (2100 down 1700 Up) for 3G. AT&T 3G is 850/1900.
Here is what is happening in your TAB. You have an AT&T SIM in a TMobile Tab. I find's TMO 3G network but is unable to connect since you have a AT&T SIM.
Obviously you cannot connect to AT&T 3G network because your TAB cannot connect to AT&T 3G bands.
no doubt, the OP is liar! the picture is actual att tab , not tmo one.
I own both att and tmo tab.
tmo tab has no way to get att 3G with any modem (include att one).

It is a fact that you will not get AT&T 3G on the T-Mobile Tab or vise versa. They use different bands. So the hardware won't allow it, which can't be fixed by flashing a different ROM no matter what.
Or by flashing a different modem either!

Hi I bought my nexus s i9020t from bestbuy 4 months ago. I am ftom india, I am not able to receive 3g signal in india and they say this is because of my mkbile is not compatable. Please help in thus regard, egat shiuld I do to get 3g.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
The basebands for 3g are different in india. The i9020t comes with the 9020 baseband i think if you flash the 9023 baseband with the KD1 radio, Your 3g will work. I got my i9020t nexus from the US and am using it in india. I had a motherboard problem and got my motherboard replaced from samsung here. So they changed my baseband , Hence my 3g is working now.
I used my 9020 with vodaphone and got 3g in new Delhi. I was on vacation

I use the i9020T and I have no problems whatsoever with my 3G signal. Get speeds close to 4Mbps. I´m on BSNL Andhra Pradesh.
Which service provider? Maybe your service provider does not provide 3G in your area?
Or try this -- Go to Dialer and type *#*#4636#*#*
After that tap on Phone Information. In Set Preferred Network select WCDMA only. That´ll give you only 3G signal if available. If you want to go back to 2G select GSM only. If you want both select WCDMA Preferred but this is a huge battery drain.
Hi please give me little more insight to what you have done. Where are you from india. I am in bangalore can you pkease provide me some contact numbers of customer care. Can I directly flash 9023 rom into my mobile? Or will there be any hardware incompatibilities? Please help me I am dying to activate 3g

Do NOT flash the 9023 ROM. That could make many things go wrong. If you're APN settings are configured then do what I said above and you'll have 3G.
Hi anirudh thank you very much for your reply I have already done that but it is of no help. Please educate me littme moe in this regard
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Maybe you send some sort of msg to get 3g activated. For airtel you've to send "activate 3g" to 121. Maybe Vodafone has something of the sort too.
Hi anirudh in my mobile I have already done that so mobile connection is 3g active. Can yiu please give me your number

Frequent disconnection on Vodafone
Anyone facing frequent 3G disconnection on Vodafone network? I have 9020T and have KD1, what radio are you using?
That's the T-Mobile version. The Nexus S is not a quintaband phone. Tmobile 's 3G is 1700mhz band. So I do not believe you will be getting 3G with that phone in India.

I was getting 3G connection with Airtel/Tata Docomo all this while. Now i moved to Vodafone and suddenly it stopped. Moreover, i am getting 3G connections and can access data as well, but it automatically disconnects after a while like 20-30 mins.
This is working now after changing the sim from the same operator. In case someone is facing the same problem, talk to ur operator and get ur sim replaced.

I flashed the latest paranoid android and it has come to my attention that when I browse it changes from 3g to h+. I didn't configure anything ... Does that mean I have late???? If yes, epic

Every Rom you flash won't give you lte. The 3g to h means it's just switching to a different 3g from my understanding. To enable lte, go here Nexus 4 LTE mind you, you have to have a 4g enabled sim card and there had to be 4g enabled on your carrier. It doesn't work with all carriers though
Sent from my Nexus 4
You need the latest radio and boot loader for the latest paranoid android. So if you want to have lte, you have to be on stock with the .38 radio not the new one which I think is .48. Also lte is not available on T-Mobile, besides the one lte tower in las Vegas. So if you have at&t and want lte, go back to stock and flash the old radio.img

H+ is TMo and AT&T's 4G service not LTE. I switch between H+ and Edge (E) in my area on StraightTalk AT&T on a stock Nexus 4.
Stock rom just shows H for all HSPA connections, the rom you have must have more specific indicators built in.

My provider only uses HSPA +/LTE, the phone always downgrades to hspa (non +) and sometimes 3g which my provider doesn't support so I loose my data connection and it sometimes takes a really long time for it to go back to the proper hspa+ that I need it to use all the time. Anybody knows if I can somehow force the phone to use hspa+ 100% of the time?
Thanks

You must be mixing up HSPA+ with LTE. I don't think there's a way to choose between HSPA/HSPA+/UMTS, they're all considered 3G or WCDMA (unless you're in Canada.. carriers lie here, those networks shown as 4G are actually 3G)

Well when my phone shows 3g or hspa I cant get anything to load online, it will stay on this mode for a while sometimes and then as soon as the phone shows hspa+ everything loads perfect. Every othere phone I have bought from Bell mobility in canada show hspa+ all the time.

I just tried making a call with my Note 3 (S800) and it was able to make a call on HSPA+ on TELUS. I think either your location doesn't have good HSPA+ signal / it's overloaded or there's a problem with the phone, does it support all the 3G frequencies Bell uses?

I know, you said "switch to HSPA+ only but you may not be able to make calls." You can switch to LTE only and you will not be able to make calls. You can make calls on HSPA+.

Will bring up configuration menu.
Should be tons of radio mode options. One should be HSPA+ only.
Must be the wrong code, *9090* doesn't do anything and *#9090# brings me to a service menu which has no radio settings

Bell mobility uses "UMTS/HSPA compatible on 850 and 1900 MHz bands" which is supported by the note 3, I just dont get why both my unlocked exynos note 2 (got rid of it 1 month after I bought it because of this problem) and also the exynos note 3 have this problem on bell mobility in canada.....

You can always edit data retry to a smaller number in your build.prop.
"ro.telephony.default_network" is the build.prop entry for which default network you're on. You could figure out which one of those corresponds to HSPA+ (probably through trial and error).
**edit
Oh, you may just have to flash a new modem then O.0
My N9005 is missing quite a few radios at the moment as well.
