Instead of showing H+, phone showing E?

Does anyone know what it means when my phone shows E instead of the H+ up top? Is this roaming or 3G coverage? It appears to happen when I'm indoors at times. It also seems that data won't work when the E shows up. Sometimes the E has a check-mark underneath of it and sometimes not. I looked in the quick reference guide but it doesn't list the E and what it could mean...Thanks in advance!

E = 2G Edge
G = 3G
H+ = 4G/HSPA+

The check underneath means you are connected to a WiFi device. Whenever I am connected to WiFi I see the check under the H+.
