So I just updated to 1.8.3 and I found a weird side effect. In my apartment, I got H+ when I had 1.2.6 and 1.5.7...but with the latest update it will go to H still but it seems like it's wanting to stay on E. Has anyone noticed this? Is it something with the updated radio or does it have to do with service in my area?
Also, the download speeds with the H+ symbol are slower now then before...

I'm getting H icon on my tytn now when I'm online. I was not aware that At&t had HSDPA rolled out. Anybody else had this happened to them?? First time that I see H icon in usa. I love it, also if some of you guys do know about At&t runing HSDPA what are the speeds that you are getting??
Thanks
Man if you dont know at-t has 3g something is up with you.. they bought cingular think about it. do a speed test and see what speeds you get... it should switch back and forth from 3g to H

I know they do, I never got H icon before, I always had 3G, I just wanted to know if anybody else had H icon cause when I'm online on the phone H icon is always on. Once when I'm online it never goes back to 3G just stays at H.
The newer radios don't use HSDPA until needed, so the connection sits at 3G until the device downloads something, and then it switches to HSDPA, thus why you see the 'H'...

Early Radio versions didn't have HSDPA enabled in them, the later radios (all those with a protocol version ending with 'H') have HSDPA enabled on them.
HSDPA rocks.
So could this be the reason why I get an E (edge) instead of a G, I just upgraded to black. When i soft reset the phone, the shows up for a minute then goes to e. It never done that before i upgraded... I also have cingular.
well E = EDGE which is a little faster than straight up G = Gprs so thats a good thing they might have upgraded the towers in your area or something since Black is a OS.nb only install and doesn't have a Radio.nb in the package... OR it could be that your older rom didnt have the proper icon base inside of it and only supported the G icon

Can u tell me if the 'H' is indeed faster than '3G'? cause me too is seeing the 'h' icon for the first time on my cingular network... but it doesn't stay.

what do you think? do you think HSDPA is faster than 3G? have you done any looking into this to see what type of speed you could get? did you look at the cingular website?
Hello all I just flashed to 2.3.4 after unlocking my bootloader. Im getting like 3 bars, usually 4 or 5. When i do speed tests on my 3G connection Im getting like 54KB/s normally its 200. Also another strange thing is that instead of saying H+ the data connection type says 3G. Is the 2.3.4 update compatible with HSPA+ or what? Is anyone else having the same issue and if so have you found any solutions? Thanks in advanced!
I am not seeing the same issue with speed however the H+ icon is not loaded in this build (image files) and even though it says 3G it's infact using HSPA+ if available in your area - I am seeing 700+ down / 300up with 2.3.4 after flash (Non-HSPA+ area)
Thanks I moved about 12 feet from my desk and I was pulling fasted download speeds lol anyway cant wait for the official release 2.3.4 is really nice!
Is HSUPA enabled in the 2.3.4 ROM that I and others have flashed
I still am getting bad uploads

This was a solution for me back in the day, but I'm not sure if its safe flashing it over this 2.3.4 ROM
Does anyone know what the official story on HSUPA is now a days for AT&T Atrix, and more specifically running the 2.3.4 build
Thanks
and does it use HSPA? it always shows 3G ( i know it may use it, but just doesnt show the disctinction, which some cusotm roms show)
but even my download speeds are real low via speedtest
Yeah, I had the same question and I found out it was because the images for 4g/HSPA+ or whatever are in the HK build.
Actually, after flashing the HK 2.3.4 build, my speeds went from 2MBPS average to a whopping 5.3MBPS average.
So 2.3.4 does fix things? Speed comparision between 2
Anyway to flash 2.3.4 radio alone without the whole rrom, don't wanna lose everything again

Hi guys, sorry if this isn't the place to post this, I don't have the post count yet to ask in the CM7 thread in the development section.
Anywho, ever since I flashed CM7 on my phone, I haven't been able to get a good HSPA+ connection. It keeps wavering from H+ to 3G. And if I do get a connection to H+, it is dead slow (did speakeasy speed test and got .4 down .1 up).
I also did the ATT data fix, but that seems to not work either.
Any help to my problem?
Mine seems to jump between 3G & H but I never thought to blame it on the ROM. Speeds are solid on both so didn't see it as an issue. Also I flashed CM7 right when I pulled it out of the box so don't know if it did that on stock or not.

The only reason why I think it may have something to do with CM7 is because before I was unrooted stock rom, and I had consistent H+ signal, with 6-7 down 2 up. Ever since I flashed, it has been very sluggish. Even my old Desire had consistent H+ signal in the areas tested. Not sure what's going on. Maybe it's a setting that I need to tweak or turn on? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello.
I'm in the UK and I've noticed my phone gets G, E, 3G and 4G but it doesn't ever show H or H+ for some reason. I'm getting this is something software related but I was wondering how do I o about sorting it?
I'm been told cm13 solves it. So must be a software issue
