Much simpler. Settings> 'more' under network> mobile networks> network mode> cdma only

It has to be there... It's under 'more' near the top of the settings menu, then mobile networks

It should be underneath your "Data usage" option where it says "More..." then just tell it you want CDMA only.
I love the LTE speeds but only use it when I really need speed AND have a charger handy.

Which Apps are not updated to 4.0.3/4.0.4

I have the Samsung Galaxy S2 X and I'm on 4.0.3 and certain apps like Poynt/Palmary Weather and some others cause my wifi to just drop and go to 4G, this never happened when I had my Incredible S?
My palmary works fine. Doesn't mess up the connection
I think i figured it out, when i did some internet searches it says that apartments that are heavy concrete or lots of metal plus phones plugged in too close to wireless modems can cause it so hopefully that's my issue?

Can I force LTE only on

Is there a way to force LTE as the only network my phone connects to? I have the network app that worked in my EVO 4G LTE but it doesn't seem to work on my GS3

Rooted Evo dead.
Rooted Evo shift dead.
Rooted Galaxy s3 alive and well!
I know that setting but is it a way to put the GS3 into LTE only mode and not just LTE/CDMA

No.. Not without issues

My wife is with Verizon and theirs works the same way. She's always like, why won't it just stay in 4g? Different beast than WiMax (not that that wouldn't drop out like a trap door sometimes.)

Yes, you can do this in the hidden Data Programming menu launched from the stock TouchWiz dialer. You will need to know your MSL code:
In the Dialer enter ##DATA#
On the Data Programming screen select Edit
Enter your MSL
Tap OK
Select Others
Select HDR/1X Selection
Select "LTE Only Mode"
Tap OK
There is a major downside to this: You will no longer have voice or text service, only LTE data service (where available).

Go to settings, more, mobile networks, use only 2g networks.
You're welcome. :good:

That option is not available for AT&T based ROMs.
From the phone dialer enter: *#197328640#
Umts -> Debug Screen -> Phone Control -> Network Lock -> RAT_FREE_SUPPORITNG ON <- once you choose this option it will say "Now RAT Free Supporting" - this will allow you to change bands freely (no need to pull the SIM card).
From here you can freely swap to whichever band you prefer and it will connect without a reboot required!

He meant:
Dial: *#197328640#, then select the numbers from the menu in the order: 11864, or 11865, whichever has removing the RAT restriction as its last option.
Then from the dial pad:
Dial *#2263#
Select GSM Band Preference
Select GSM all
You don't need to reboot or remove the Sim card.

WCDMA only on Super Jelly Bean 6

Hi,
Is there a way to activate WCDMA only on ROM "Super Jelly Bean 6" ?
Thanks.
BTW:
I would ask in the Thread for this Image (Development Forum), but because of the stupid rule (newbie) of this Website I'm not allowed.
Ye, activate widget toggle 2g/3g.
Scroll down to network mode and enable 2g/3g only
Now use the toggle to set 3g only
Ps. 2g = gsm. 3g=wcdma

Which Widget do you mean.
All Widgets I can find on Store are leading only to the networks menu.
And in this network menu I'm not able to activate 3g-only. There is ni menu-point for this.
Only the point "2g-only" is there.
On original ROM at this point was that option....
Yes, i ment the widgets is settings-system-notification drawer

Wow! Thanks I found it
But how should someone find this without help?
Thats was made very complicated from the devs
