Recently flashed CarbonROM and now my phone rotates between 3G and HSPA+ when both are listed as full signal. Is this a ROM issue, Phone issue, or AT&T?

Its not an issue. AOSP based ROMs show 3g when data isn't active and H+ when it is. stock ROMs incorrectly label H+ as 4g.

So it isn't a matter of me having signal or not? It's just going to say H+ when actually using data and 3g when im not?

So are you saying this is no real LTE speeds at all and only H+ ?

H+ is not LTE that is correct. On AOSP ROMs LTE is displayed as 4g. If you are seeing H+ then you are either not in an LTE reception area or your APN is wrong.

Ever since I flashed my phone with the wicked rom .. my data has been do constantly switching between 3g and h+... I have my network type set to wcdma only and I have a strong signal but it still drops down to 3g
Before when I was on the stock rom it never did that.. I even had my network type set to wcdma preferred ..
Anyone having the same issue ?

That's completely normal. It only shows h when your data is fully active. Its a good thing. The only difference is now your phone is telling you the truth.

Oh is it normal ? I didn't know since on the stock rom it never did that ,always displayed 4g.
But what would it drop to 3g if I have a strong signal always

Yeah dude. T-Mobile does that they call their hspa+ 4G. Technically anything that is not 3g is considered 4G. The reason you are seeing this on your new rom is because the stock tmobile rom will only display you in 2G or E for edge. Or 4G for 3G and HSPA+ otherwise known as 4G. The majority of customer roms will tell you what you are currently on.

I'm running CM 10 on my AT&T S3. I'm in an LTE area and have LTE coverage. I also would have strong HSPA coverage as well.
My issue is, when I'm on a call, I have no internet connection. There is no 4G/H/3G icon at all by the signal bars (which are full). And when I try to go to a page it says No connection.
Is this an issue with CM10? Anyway I can fix this? I can't seem to remember if the issue was present on stock.
Same here. It worked on stock att

yea i put 10.1 and i still have the issue.
I have the AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3 android version 4.1.2 on MIUI.us 3.1.11. Everything is working fine, but I have noticed slightly slower speeds and I no longer see my LTE signal icon in the status bar? How can I tell if I still have LTE coverage? Is it still there, but just not being displayed anymore? Please advise.

An image doesn't change much, I could swap it to change 2G (E) and it would still give me the same speed.. You can use speedtest app to see if you still get the same speed.
So I shouldn't be to concerned if the LTE icon is no longer being displayed? It was very helpful to have it, let's you know where the best coverage for LTE is at! Wonder why it's not being displayed anymore after rooting??

Its showing 4G and H+
If it shows 4G that means LTE and H+ means regular "4G" at least in my experience

Almost. LTE is 4G but H+ is 3.5G.
Before I installed MIUI.us, it said LTE, 4G, and H+. Now, no LTE is displayed.

Can you tell me what is displayed? Or even better, could you post a screeny when on data? (hold vol down + power to take a screenshot).
And like I mentioned before, it's an image. Nothing else. The only way to know if using a speedtest.
Att markets there HSPA+ as 4G that's why on stock the 4G there speed is slow

It would just be good to know when LTE is being offered.

Umm that's H+, a bit slower than LTE. Go check in your APNs if you're on the LTE one. Also, make sure your network mode has the 3 options (2G, 3G, 4G).
Yes, all that you mentioned checks out. Just never are my LTE symbol after installing both CM10.0 and MIUI.us.

Maybe try a different modem. I'm not sure why it would keep you from using LTE if your APN and network mode are correct.
How do I try a different modem?

I have S2 and ever since I started using roms i don't get 4g anymore. It shows HSPA 10.
That is the 4g network for tmobile. You should see 4g or h+ in status bar and hspa 10 or 15 in settings

So download speed shouldn't be any different than Stock Rom correct? oh yah btw does T-Mobile US or T-Mobile US LTE apn actually make a difference sorry new to this rom stuff and how come i'm only using 3g for calling? Cause Stock rom used 4g im pretty sure and it was much clearer

If i could piggy back off this thread, I also have a tmo s4 on att network. Yesterday I was with a friend who was also on att and I noticed his phone at that time had 4g where the network bars were located, mine however read H+. It was then I realized that I have never seen the 4g symbol on my phone ever. Do I just not get 4g? Or does this ROM that I have on my phone (slim bean) either not have the files for 4g or maybe its originally a T-Mobile ROM so I'm not getting 4g I don't know. I do get LTE tho.

Ok this makes sense, thanks.
I had the same issues. If your previous phone that you used on AT&T was only 3G (I had an iPhone 4), your SIM card is only configured to receive and transmit 3G data. You will need to go on to wireless.att.net and order a new 4G SIM card, or go to a store and have them program one for you. This is assuming that you have already signed up for one of the new data plans, if not, they will likely not issue a SIM card capable of 4G and will probably hound you via email and SMS about using a 4G device on an old 3G data plan.
