You can go settings and turn off automatic network selection. Then just choose whatever network you want on the manual network.

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?

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

also in the mobile networks click automatic connections if urs is unchecked.!

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

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).

I downloaded Phone Info and switched it back to LTE but it keeps on saying 3G. I'm on Rogers.

Phone info basically replaces the process of using *#2263#. I'd suggest uninstalling it, and manually:
1. In dialer, *#2263#
2. LTE band preference, LTE all
3. Menu key, end
4. Again in dialer, *#2263#
5. Select automatic
6. Menu key, end

Again thanks!

Does not work for me either running stock rogers rom.... It dails it as a USSD code
ServiceMode
Im running NOTEorious Prime and I'm taken to a ServiceMode screen, however it reads "RAT Selection option is restricted"
any Ideas? I get 4g LTE here and there but its a hit and miss.
Like on the Nexus 4 there is a dialer code and are able to change to LTE only or wcdma only etc...
They only give us 3 options to us through connection settings.
Reason for this is in certain places I know where I get lte it only gives me H+ and it isn't as fast. And at those times I'm not calling so I don't care.
Can any one please help me?

*#2263# enter that in dialer. Might work.

*#2263# enter that in dialer go to "[4] LTTE Band preference" then select lte band 4. hit the menu button and hit select. type the number 1.
also as you will not be able to make calls with this setting.
The better mode is LTE/WCMA (go figure).

I know thank you. When I'm at work lte is there on one bar and is faster than H+. and other places too.
Once I leave I switch back to normal.
The funny thing is that on my Nexus 4 it had better radio's sorta in a way as it almost always choose the fastest regardless if LTE was available.

if you are on LTE only you can not call anyone and no one will be able to call you

What part of I do not care haha? I understand and I wasn't calling any one when I am at work or when I go to certain stores and places.

Thank you for this information. Sorry if it's not obvious to me but is there a way to disable LTE using this menu? When I'm at work, it's constantly changing between LTE and HSPA+ as I walk about and it actually interrupts my data connection a bit. My HSPA+ speeds are more than acceptable to me.

In normal settings you go to more networks and choose mobile networks, then choose wcdma only.

Hello,
Can someone please show me how to eliminate the search for available networks notifications?
Also, is there a way to keep mobil networks on manual after reboot.
Thank you.
The available network is under wifi/hit menu key/ advance settings/ than check disable available network notifications... not too sure about your second question,
