So my phone has no problem connecting to edge and 4g, but i can never get it
to connect to 3G, is their a mod or app that can fix that?
The only way you will see a 3G icon is if your area has PCS HSPA and your phone connects to it. Otherwise it's just 2G/4G
4g is 3g.

Is 4g logo for connection speed is the highest connection speed or is 4g + or 4h logo for higher connection speed I'm not getting ? I'm in Houston ,tx .what's everyone else getting in this area ?

So far I think T-Mobile only uses 2 logos. Either edge or 4G. 3G is also 4G in their dictionary.

Then how do we know we are on hsps if we only see 4g? This is horse cocky lol:what:

If you see 4G then you're on HSPA+ network. If you see Edge (E) then you're on their 2G network.

Damn that's awful.. But proportional to Sprint's 3G speeds. Matches HSPA haha

Actually I got better speeds.
i just got my Gnex...is there a way to turn off 4G ??...i dont see anything in the settings
That is because it is called 3g.
You want to check 2g under mobile network settings.

HSPA+ is an enhanced form of 3g. If you check to use 2g, that is what AT&T calls Edge service.

ok...thanks!...
Lol the 9250 doesn't have a 4g modem even though t-mobile & at&t market HSPA+ as 4G. 3G and HSPA are the same tech.

I thought the Note II handled simultaneous voice/data over 4G. I tried to use it today and couldn't even though I clearly had 4G connection.
Has this worked for anyone else? I'm wondering if I was really connected to the "enhanced" 3G and LTE

Voice and LTE work simultaneously. Or at least on my phone.

I'm thinking that I may have been on the enhanced 3G and not actual LTE. Does your signal show 4G or LTE?
Thanks

It shouldnt matter what 3G your on. Sprint does not have an enhanced 3g (4g). LTE is the only 4g that the Sprint Note 2 has. So if your running LTE it should work.
Oh and the phone doesn't show LTE only 4G icon.

This depends on what rom you are on. If stock then it will show 4g.some roms have it show lte when the phone is connected to 4g.
there is simultaneous voice/data over LTE but not on 3g. On a stock rom it will day 4g at the top.
