Downloading freeze when switching between 3 and 4g - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Is this normal for 4G devices?
If I begin a download on 3g and change to 4g in the middle, the download stops and does not resume. I can only cancel and atart over. It happens in the reverse as well, if I start on 4g and switch to 3g again it stops. I dont think this happens with wifi, but I cant test now. Anyone else experiance this?

Epic 4g wifi issue on stock

I have a samsung epic 4g running on stock ec05 but sometimes wifi just cuts off at random moments. I would turn it on and after a minute or two it would just turn off again.

Google it.
It sounds like a wifi sleep policy issue. Check out this.
Google is your friend. Look around XDA. You'll find your answers. You're not asking something new.

4G force app

Icant seem to find a way to force my g2 to stay in "4g"
Ihave full conection it just keeps bouncing back and fourth
Between 3g and 4g .. any help?
I dont know but all the roms do that and it does that to save battery, if it stays in 3G it means its just saving battery but when you go to an app that requires the web it goes to 4G for fasters speed.
So basicly devs made it like that to make your phone save battery.
My guess, dont quote me on that.

It switches whilst iam using the browser
And ialways get page load fails
Its switching as itype this
And when iuse my tether it still switches ..its rather annoying
What I did was download the app any cut and make a shortcut to the phone info setting. Once in there just switch from wcdma perferred to wcdma only and that should do it

That happened fo me too. But I was getting the speed without the icon...it was only when it switchdd that it would f up. I just switchdd radios and downloaded the 4g app pack and it helpdd but didnt fix (only happendd with a couple roms) and on other roms it will say 4g but its a 3g speed...and that ciuld just be the nature of the beast...
Can't believe no one else in the know has commented on this. You c ant force it. PERIOD. That is not how hspa works. The phone plays a small part in the switch but MOST of it is up to the towers discretion. The tower switches you to hspa when the data throughput warrants it. This is a fact not just some crackpot theory. Save your time!
Lol to the person who said devs made it that way. Not making fun just laughing

Changing to 3g and 2g

Hey guys I was wondering if y'all knew of an app or trick that will let me switch from my 4g to 3 or 2 in a snap without going through dialing stuff and etc? I want to be able to surf the net using 2g or 3g when I'm not at home. When I'm home I use wifi. Thanks!

Slow download speeds

I'm on the unlimited data plan and whenever I try to download anything whether it's an app in the play store or a rom my download speeds will be fast initially then slow down to a crawl or it'll just hang. I have 4G LTE and full bars. I'm wondering if it's T-Mobile slowing my download speed because they know it's a large file like asphalt 8 bring downloaded. Anyone have any experiences or ideas? I don't have Wi-Fi unless I'm home and even then where I live I have 4G LTE coverage. Thanks.

I've been getting a lot of latency connecting, its frustrating. Sometimes I have to try several times before it will actually connect too.

ROM for making calls and using data at the same time.

I'm a looking for a ROM that will allow me to use my data while I am making a phone call. It worked when I was using stock but it doesn't work anymore.

They should all do this. Just know it won't over edge, which is too slow anyway
Calling and data
I have this problem on my drive home from work a lot, with the stick touch wiz the phone doesn't normally distinguish between 4g and 3g. So if I am not calling I get "4g" all the way but when I am on a call a frequently lose data in one 5 to 7 mile stretch. Personally I like the google pay Roms. They are clean and I experience very few force closes compared to CM. GPE and CM also will show you when you have 3g or 4g (H or H+).

Oh it distinguishes it just fine, its just meant to display 4G for 3G and H/H+.. My guess is that data coverage is probably not that good in that area
Thanks.
