3G signal on x10i

Right I got me a bit of an issue.
Dunno if it's been covered by someone already, but there's only so much the search bar can do from my phone.
I am using X10i I am on O2-uk
Even when I am sat next to someone that has full 3G signal, I am totally unable to get anything.
I've had this phone for just a year now an idea have never had a 3G signal. The best I can do is get H
The status bar claims to have 3G bit as soon as I try an use the connection, for ANY reason, it instantly switches back over to H
So basically my issue is........ WTF!?!?
Why not ant I connect to through 3G? And does anyone else have this problem? Is there fix for it? An app or something I'm missing?

The infamous "H" ...
From what I understand H is better than 3G...in fact its 3.5G! Increased download speeds when compared to regular 3G..
"H"is a good thing..

Really? If that's the case then I should have seen 3G at some point in the last year when I had worse signal???

Nope. Afaik 3g depends on availability in your area. Not related to signal strength.

Yeah mate the h is for hsdpa which is, as said above, better than 3g.
Edit: if phone can't get hsdpa it will go for 3g. If it can't get 3g it will search for edge (will just have an e). If it can't get e then u need to stop living on mars as u ain't got no mobile internet.

You can't really complain some people have issues even getting 2g while your having 3.5g

Ok
Thanks guys. I was under the impression 3G was better than H
Cheers for clearing that up

Anybody else have very low service in Boise?

I've recently seen a dramatic decrease in bars throughout Boise, Idaho and was wondering if anybody else was having the problem? I've been out of town and verified its only problematic in Boise and the surrounding area.
Any help or info would be appreciated!

Try this thread, might be of some use. A new modem might do the trick.

Why is my ping so high, speed so low but still have 4g?!?

Ok, I have gone through the forums quite a bit and I cannot seem to figure it out. I have 4g be when I do a speed test is very low. I have tried several modems and they all are basically the same thing in terms of ping and network speeds. Currently, since I flashed a lot of modems the current one is unknown. Can someone whom is smarter than I figure this out? I cannot make heads or tales from this and the included pictures should help out a bit. Thanks everyone in advance

Looks like a normal signal to me. More than likely HSPA:11 or 15. Go to settings > about phone > status > and check your mobile network type. More than likely you are in a strong 3G but weak 4G area.
Its a very strong 4g network and the way I know this is because I was coming from a gs2 or t989 and its very strong. With that phone I get around 15mbps to 20mbps

You are not getting lte coverage so though your results are on the low side for 4g they are not so low that I would think anything is wrong with your hardware.
I have 4glte and my ping sometimes reach
100.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And did you go to about phone > status and see what band you are receiving? Are you using the correct APN?
I am using the only one that I know of which is
Epc.Tmobile.Com, here where I live LTE is not here but the hspa+ or what Tmobile use to call 4g is "strong like bull" before I yield my gs2 my wife it was pulling down 15/10

Signal strength carbon room

Got a question I flashed the latest carbon rom and I am getting less then normal 4g signal strength anything I can do to get better signal. What if I flash a new radio? And if so what radio? I heard that custom rooms use lte4g13 and stock used lte14 is that true?
Thanks Amy help would be grateful.

The radio more depends on the towers in your area and yes the ril. Ive noted on most custom ports the signal strength is usually weaker than stock. But overall this is a problem with Sammy antennae. Most other companies get way better signal than Samsung.
