I am on tmobile and it works pretty good I get 4g in some areas, it just depends on how strong the 1900 mgz signal is in your area.

Like the previous guy said you get edge speeds unless tmobile has refarmed the 1900 MHZ in your area for HSPA speeds.
Below is the list of cities where tmobile has refarmed the 1900 MHZ.

The modem is the same chip as the nexus 4 and note2, so I would bet if you use their radios and ril, you would have hspa and hspa+.

Hi.thank you for your help.i had a good deal on the note2 n7100.so i went for it.i live in miami.i hope i get the 1900

Hey guys! Just got my phone yesterday and got it unlocked. For some reason though I'm not getting Data at all. I should be getting something since I live in Boca Raton, FL and that's not too far from Ft. Lauderdale, one of the cities listed on the link Kirdroid provided. On my previous phone (HD2) I got HSPA speeds in my area. You guys have any idea of what could it be? Or any other tips on what network settings i should have?
I'm rooted and I'm using Nocturnal's Rom

Yes that is exactly what I was missing. Thank you very much! Unfortunately I'm getting edge here where I work, but the connection here was irregular as well on my HD2, so I hope it's just the area. When I get home later I'll give an update.
Thanks again!

Wow the third option made my speeds faster! Thanks I was having issues with connectivity but that seemed to fix it up!

Update:
The first settings worked best for me. Although the HSPA+ speeds are somewhat irregular on the area where I live, it works great on the neighboring area.
Thanks for the help samomamo !

No need, all I did was unlock and input the settings for the APN. It's been working great!

Does your phone stay connected at all times? Mine disconnects from the network rather frequently for no reason and the data connection is spotty on certain apps.

My connection is spotty too, but that really depends on the area. On areas closer to the Antenna it stays connected most of the time. But where I live my experience is close to yours.

I am on T-Mobile, did the Nexus conversion, and I can confirm that I am unable to get 3G on the 1700mHz band. I live next to a T-Mobile tower, and my last phone (TMOUS HTC One S) got 3G signal without a problem, so I know it isn't the area. I am only able to get EDGE and I have the Nexus 4 modem M9615A-CEFWMAZM_2.0.1700.33.

Sshshshsh! This illegal! No unlocking!!

To you guys who live in Florida:
I spent my day today in Miami Beach and the hspa+ speeds there are constant and stellar there. 4-5 mbps download and 2-3mbps upload. That kind of proves my assumption that it's a matter of the area and not the phone itself.

Miami is probably already refarmed with the 1900mHz band. Where I live about 40 minutes from Tampa, I do not get 3G from my home, which is near a T-Mobile tower.

Where do you see LTE start to fall off in Atlanta, I've gone as far north as Forsyth and haven't been knocked off LTE yet.
With my sgs2 had an lte connection almost everywhere even down in fayette county. With the note i don't even have an lte connection here in glendale ca just which with my skyrocket i had full lte. I think.Im just.going to go exchange it for another.

I will be testing this tomorrow in Houston. Skyrocket ranges anywhere between 12-60mbps down. Insane. Can only hope that the Note gets the same.

So far the highest I've gotten is 41Mbps↓ but I think some people are getting in the 50's. Probably aren't likely to see 60 much anymore as the network starts to actually get users.

Getting 10Mb up and down. If you want to know what the LTE coverage is like here, go ahead and download Sensorly for coverage maps. I've already turned it on and walked around the house, it said it picked up 20 points, so that may be towers, just from my house.
note: have htc vivid w/ lte unlimited plan. the misses gets 20Mb down on hers.

My speeds are pretty much not even LTE. In fact I was getting just as good speeds with my non-LTE Atrix 4g. From my bedroom I get about 1mbps and the upload...well if it registers at all I get 300kbps. Admittedly I get terrible terrible reception here even on my old phone. At my grandmas house where I get 3-4 bars I got up to 8mbps per second on one or two tests but often it was around 3mbps. The upload there never got above 600-700kbps. I live in Orange County, CA so maybe there are so many users that that's just as fast as we get...or maybe it's this phone. I dunno yet. Gonna try it at work(Disneyland) tomorrow and see how it works.
I attached a txt file with my tests...on most of them it says HSDPA, dunno what that even means.
Sounds like you do not have LTE in your area yet. The signal icon on your status bar will say 4G LTE if you have it.

But we do have LTE, it says on the coverage tracker that we do and my dad has the HTC One X and he gets LTE. Now that you mention it though it says 4G at the bar at the top of the screen and not LTE. Is it supposed to say LTE?
Yes it does say it right under the 4G. Go back and look at some of the screen shots. If you are both on At&t you should go to the store because you should have it also.

I don't know the AT&T network but on Rogers, Bell & Telus in Canada you need to specify an LTE APN. The HSPA/+ APN you have configured by default with your SIM probably won't support or recognize LTE service speeds, and even my 'LTE network' microSIM didn't import this automatically, I had to manually input the APN.
33/1.9 I wonder what's up with my upload speed.

HTC Rezound on Simple Mobile with 3g /HSPA /LTE?

I have my rezound on the leaked Global update rom on Simple Mobile $40 plan. I am in Indianapolis, Indiana and moving soon to
Denver Colorado... I want to have speeds better then Edge. Does Indianapolis, Indiana or Denver Colorado areas have the ability to use something better then Edge speeds for data? Do I need to wait for the ATT spectrum that Tmobile got as part of the break up of the merger? Tired of edge....
I'm from Denver, hope you like it! I don't think we have simple mobile, but it'll work with straight Talk sim Idk about data for that though. All I know is Verizon 4G lte ran at about 45mbits a second

I already have a denver phone number from simple mobile. In indianapolis i only get edge speeds. If i knew someone with a straight talk sim i would test it that way to see if straight talk supports 3g or better.

You well get no better than edge speeds on T-Mobile or att networks due to the resound not supporting the frequency band they operate on. Unless your in am area T-Mobile is refarming 2g spectrum to HSPA+

does anyone have simple mobile in Denver Colorado and have a rezound on it? Are you getting any 3g or better speeds. If so how did you get the better speeds? I read that Denver has been refarmed as someone with an iphone 5 has 3g service. I will be moving to Denver on March 1 so just wanting to see... I am in Indianapolis which so far i only have edge speeds... unless i need to edit something....
The only way it would work is if you could get a plan using att network through simple plan and do the radio edits described in the link above. Otherwise, gl until T-Mobile launches there new platform.
