The H+ icon is the correct icon. I understand you're used to seeing a different icon but that's only because at&t incorrectly market HSDPA as 4G for some stupid reason. I'm unaware of any app or module to change the icon.

AT&T did this because Verizon put them behind the "8 ball" in the early days of their LTE rollout. Verizon was first to market in the US with LTE and AT&T had a marketing nightmare on their hands while they played catch up. So they tried to convince consumers that HSPDA was 4G for a while. More like 3G+...

As you correctly pointed out, the icons are correctly displayed. No need to change them.
