AT&T & 4G - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Att has recently begun deploying 4g, hspa+, and will begin deploying LTE soon. For the x10, how can I get 4g? Is there some third party thing I can install?
Btw, I am running Z's free x10 rom.

H is as close as you can get to "4g" on the x10

they changed the frequency at which a network can be considered 4G. H=4G. Lte, and Lte Advanced can be used on the same phone, like ours (E, 2G, 3G, H) but they can't be used together. completely different frequencies. sorry, but no. but when it does come out, be happy that you have a much better coverage... for now ;-)

So there's not something the dev's of my custom rom can do code-wise to make use of the new frequencies?

no sorry, you'd have to change the hardware receiver/transceiver

3g to 4g

Is there any way to convert 3g to 4g or is a hardware related? thanks
there is no way to get our phones to work with the actual 4g. the hardware in our phones wasn't built to support those speeds.
Its hardware based, you can't.
thanks for your information.

Lol, I know what he "thinks" 4g is, and so do some people on the 3g vibrant section.
The "H" mod that is included with roms is NOT 4g speeds, but you are connected to hspa (or whatever the accurate acronym is) but you're still limited to the Max speed the hardware in your phone supports. Period.

galaxy s 2

if i was to buy a glaxay s 2, and connect it to t-mobile's service, would it still be possible for me to get the 4G network? just curious
4g? Hell no.
3g? No.

That's something you should ask T-Mobile about. They have a website and everything

Um, what unbranded phone works with tmo-us 3g bands? You have to be able to receive the correct frequencies in order to get 3g, and tmo-us uses non-worldly 3g bands, unlike att.
So, while dumb, it's the reality of the situation.

Nokia n9 is coming with a pentaband radio, so it will work on Tmobile 3g.

[Q] unlocked dell streak 5 ? noob

is there any way to get the 3g to work on my unlocked dell streak with the baseband version ending with 00-us sorry i just got it and really sad that it just has edge i just got a internet plan with t mobile to and would like to use this phone since i love everything else about it
Afraid not, Tmo 3g is a different beast than ATT 3g.
Even if I root the streak would I not get 3g out hspa?

Rooting won't help because this is a hardware issue, not software. T-Mobile's frequencies cannot be seen by an unlocked/AT&T Streak, and thus you will be limited to 2G (EDGE) speeds.
Your only alternative is to find an AWS Streak. These units have a different receiver in them than the standard, and are fully usable on T-Mobile.
AWS model. im rockin it on Tmobile 3G+

Is there any way to find one lol

They're very hard to come by. You just have to keep an eye out for one or convince someone to let go of theirs

What do you mean your "3G doesn't work"? It won't register in 3G areas? Your speeds are crappy?
Ya 3G still gray doesn't work
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Have you tried updating your profile? And are you in a 3G area?
Update your profile and prl. Also see if your wireless network is set to automatic.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Gray doesn't mean you don't have 3g. It means that you are not syncing with google.
They are in the process of upgrading the towers in certain areas i had the same problem and they told me about the tower upgrades in my zip when i called tech support. So it is more than likely that just eait it out a day or two my speeds doubled once they finished last night.

Will a rogers razr work on bell mobility if unlocked?

Before i go ahead and drop money on it will it even work? I know rogers and bell use different frequencies.
Thanks

They use the same frequencies on the GSM network. Rogers just has 2g available where BELL has cdma which you won't be using.

You won't have an issue. I have an unlocked RAZR on Telus right now. No issues. Bell and Telus share the same network.
It will run like a dream. Btw OP why would you want the Razr when you have thw GNexus. I much rather have that device. Would you trade?
