Default GSM/WCDMA instead of WCDMA/HSDPA after root

before rooting my phone under network mode I used to have the option to select WCDMA/HSDPA but after rooting it that option has changed to GSM/WCDMA, how to I fix this?

Naaaah, i have always had gsm/wcdma option, but phone is working in hsdpa mode according to speedtest.net. So it seems to be only a name difference.

in the UK we always had GSM/WCDMA even if the phone was running in HSDPA, and since most of you root onto the generic UK firmware that is your answer.

Gsm/hspa is probably a operator specific branding. But its total nonsense , gsm/wcdma is the correct wording as wcdma is umts and hspa is a software specific upgrade which is not available on all towers in most networks.
But in order to use it at all WCDMA (umts) needs to be enabled
