Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App

I flashed my radio and RiL files about a week ago, I am on a G2 and have seen better GPS and battery life, as far as wifi goes I have a home based wifi network, for me it is a strong signal from the router to my G2. Have you checked if you are on a home system that your signal from your router is good? If you mean out and about or hot spots they control signal strength of course. Being a newby that is all I can help you. I hope that something works out for you.

3G 4G LTE

Does anyone know how I can change the network? Most of the jelly bean roms don't have 4G I'm on 3G with the dragon rom. Anyway where would I go to change this? In the build prop? I know some say change modem but that has nothing to do with it. Any help would be great.

You would think it could be changed in the build. I have been looking through the build prop but just not sure if that's the right place to start or not. Has to be a way to re write it.

Change the network? It's determined by the Access Point Names and the Network Mode. If you're accessing an LTE-capable APN then as long as you're Network Mode is set to LTE/GSM/WCDMA (and your in an LTE area and have LTE provisioning on your plan of course) you're phone will access it if it's the strongest signal for you.
1 bar of LTE is way faster than HSPA+ btw

Do you have 3G or Hspa+ because on the stock roms it says you have 4G but it really isnt , it is Hspa+.

Have you actually ran a speedtest to determine your actual network speed?
I did a speed test and u get like 23mb download but that's included with my build.prop tweaks
Sent from my Desire HD using xda app-developers app
You can Change the apn right then add z few modification to build.prop then you should have better faster network speeds in theory

So how do I set my Network Mode? My S1 (I9000) has a 'network mode' setting under 'mobile network settings'. It lets me choose between GSM, WCDMA, or both (auto). My S3 has no such setting or option. By the way, the I9000 always worked better in WCDMA Only mode.
I am on a Straight talk plan and have no access to 4G network.

After Jb OTA am getting 4G in status bar when Orange needs 3 years to provide it!

How could this happen!! My phone is a T-Mobile T999 unlocked and working on Jordanian Orange. According to orange they will begin providing 4g in 2015 yet in status bar I see that am connected to 4g. Could the T-Mobile build be exaggerating figures ??

Mine always shows 4g...Although truly I am not always connected to 4g.
Just run a speed test and you will see.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Most phones would show H or H+. The T999 was coded to show 4G instead, in keeping with their ad campaign.
If you go into settings, about device, status, under network type itll say UMTS at idle and probably HSPAP when under load.

Cm10.1 data switching issue

When I turn on my data it switches between 3g and 4g and I can't even figure it out
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
That is how it is supposed to work, nothing to figure out.
My gfs phones never switches or anything my phones does all the time
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
What is she on and it never switches to what? If she hasn't updated her modem it will stay on 3g all the time. It is like this on every AOSP rom for our phone. Unless there is a theme that edits it out.
If speedtest says it's fine, it's fine.
It just switches from 4g to 3g all the time but I guess I'll have to live with it

Bad reception

My gs3 has been getting bad reception lately. My gf's HTC 1x and my gs3 used to get about the same service inside my house where now I'm getting 1 bar when she gets 4. I've tried everything I can think of to get a better signal. Flashed modems, changed apns, flashed back to stock, tried build prop hacks, nothing helped. Could this be an antenna malfunction? Are there any hardware mods that may help? Maybe something I've looked over. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Been having the same problems, always at 1 bar at my house, WiFi on makes it worse for some reason..
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
I just turned wifi off and went from none to 2 bars. But with the way my signal goes in and out it could just be coincidence........

Here is a list for different radios on i747: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831898
You can flash them in twrp or cwm.
Its a hit or miss depending on your phone and area.
I tried the latest release and am getting very good reception
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Didnt realize they had a new radio. Really wasn't expecting the new radio to help since I tried the rest with no success but it actually fixed my issue I'm getting about the same service as my gf. Thanks alot.
