I had 3G/HSDPA before on 4.0 at my workplace getting speeds of 2Mbps+. No after update to 4.0.1, I do not get 3G. Phone shows it is one EDGE. I don't even bother to perform a speed test as the web page loads are so slow now.

My understanding is that the update is not suppose to affect the reception at all - it just changes the bar(s) display. I change which I do notice I should mention as I am getting a bar less now displayed.

However, it clearly kills 3G/HSDPA on my one as in areas where I had brilliant 3G/HSDPA coverage.

Should mention it shows 5 bars now. Obviously it has hooked itself up to the closest EDGE/GPRS base station blazing nearby but no 3G even at this signal strength.

Should also mention I have the "death grip" issue but that never prevented 3G/HSDPA before 4.0.1.

Anyone experience this? What advice to resolve the issue? I am on T-Mobile UK

Anyway to go back to 4.0?
