Hey CM7 users, I've just flashed to CM7. Loving the effects and options. But out of all other useful options, I failed to locate the option to have a fixed 2G/3G connection. Yes, I have the option for fixed 2G connection but what about 3G?
Help needed thanks..
Put this into your keypad, *#*#4636#*#* (*#*#INFO#*#*) press Phone, scroll down and choose "WCDMA Only".

hello!
i'm running cm9 by modpunk and i know that cm9 doesn't have a preferred network speed setting on its menus.
the question is, is there a chance i can edit build.prop myself and make the phone connect to hsdpa networks only instead of auto?
thanks in advance
It's weird how that is.
If you go to Settings>System>Notification Drawer>Widget Buttons and check the "Toggle 2G/3G" box, then at the bottom, tap "Network modes" and change it to "2G/3G Only". Then drag down your notification bar and change the network mode to 3G only.
wow, it worked perfectly. indeed it was really weird
thanks!
Wow that was really helpful thank you so much:good:
Hi all,
Can anyone please explain to me the difference between the following options in SYSTEM > NOTIFICATION DRAWER > WIDGET BUTTONS > NETWORK MODES?
The options are:
1. 2G/3G+2G
2. 2G/3G Only
3. 2G/3G Only/3G+2G
I understand what option 2 is (2G/3G Only) as this makes sense, but the other two make less sense and I find them quite confusing, especially the 3G+2G parts.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

I can't tell you for sure since i'm on a sense rom, but as I understand it this refers to widget buttons that toggle between 2 or 3 options.
So:
1. 2G/3G+2G => toggles between "2g network only" and "2g or 3g network"
2. 2G/3G Only => toggles between "2g network only" and "3g network only"
3. 2G/3G Only/3G+2G => toggles between "2g network only", "3g network only" and "2g or 3g network"
So the 3G+2G mode would have your phone connect to an available 3G network unless when there is no 3G available in which case it will try to connect to an available 2G network.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

Hi guys can you tell me how to turn on wcdma preferred ? I need to know this. Thank you
Do you want WCDMA preferred or only WCDMA?
Go to dialer and type *#*#4636#*#*, select the top option (phone info). There you can choose the preferred network type.

Hi, I just got an Optimus G, and I have a problem with *#*#4636#*#* menu. If I try to open "Phone information" from that menu, it says "This application does not work on this device". How can I get it to work?
What I would like to do, is to disable LTE network, because my operator does not support LTE yet, and I don't know how else to do this, than by this menu?
Also, which ROM would you suggest for someone who likes pure android without additional customization? I just want simple, stable, and fast ROM.
Thanks for your help.
Try going to settings and look for mobile networks options then change your network mode to GSM and WCDMA.
I would suggest Artmod 5.4 eventhough its not stock 4.4 KitKat, it still looks and works pretty darn good. Its flat design and very fast and stable. I haven't tried other stock ROMs but Artmod has a very good camera quality and best battery life.
That is the problem, there is no LTE option in settings, so I figured I would try to disable it through that menu. Any ideas?

How I can switch my Fire Phone to 3G Only Band? Some App or somthing? Who help? :what:
Go to the dialer, enter *#*#4636#*#* and tap "Phone Information". On the next screen, you can select 'WCDMA preferred' from the drop-down menu. However, I'm not sure if the phone will automatically reset itself back after a restart or whatnot.
Yes. I discovery that. Its simple and easy. Now for me, a very good phone.
Is there anyway to turn off 3G ? for use 2G GSM only mode , I want to use EDGE option since my area has the weak 3G signal.

You follow the same steps I gave in my previous post. Instead of selecting WCDMA preferred, you select GSM only in the drop-down menu.

Thank you it works great without reset the phone.
And easier and lazier way is to install the app "Phone testing", it is the shortcut to the same menu. On Motorola phone the app is required because that dialer combination doesn't work.
