What ya mean?

It will show connected to an extended network but it will not connect to roaming data and made sure roaming g data was connected. Another user that had a Galxy Nexus with Verizon said they had to out in a code to get it to work for him I'm sure it was some modem setting but not sure

Not really sure what's your problem, but i guess Dragn4rce could help you.

Do you mean a "Network Extender" from Verizon?
I use one of these in my home and it works flawlessly.
I should add though that mine is an older model that only extends voice, not data.
I use my Wi-Fi home network for data.

No extended network like when you are using g another providers tower

I work in an area where I'm connected to Verizon's extended network. I get no data connection. My coworker with an iPhone gets 3G data on the same network.
I have data, data roaming, and national data roaming all enabled.
Does anybody know how I can get data working?

Yep this is my same issue except was the same phone for me

Quick question. Reactivating 3G phone.

If I reactivate a non-4G phone. But not feature phone would I get unlimited data taken away?

i assume you're on verizon since you mentioned 4g.
if thats the case, they should not remove your unlimited data IF you active a 3g smartphone.
If you go 4G to 3G or 3G to 4G, no change. 4G/3G to dumb phone will however.
Note going down to 3G then back up will require a new SIM card. (From my personal experiences, please chime in on differences).

You should be fine activating a 3g smartphone. If you had the double data promotion you would lose it by going to a 3g phone.

[Q] T-Mobile Galaxy SII on AT&T?

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but will my T-Mobile Galaxy SII T-989 work on the AT&T network with full service 4G if I unlock my T-989? Thinking about switching providers and wanted to know if my phone will work.
yeah thats what i heard..i dont know about 4g but i think it wil go ful speed 3g for data.. so yeah.

3G yes. 4G as in HSPDA yes, 4G as in LTE no
Actually the T-Mobile GS2 has LTE radio in it. At least anytime you plug it in to the computer it registers as an LTE composite device.

I wondered about 4G LTE. I was in a service setting menu and there was an option to change the band to LTE. Not sure if the phone has the capability but the option in the menu is there.

Thet989 has no lte radio in it. No4g on att

How do you set it to 4G only?

I'm having trouble keeping a 4G signal with this phone. My galaxy s2 would stay on 4G in my area but this s3 is pretty much staying on a edge connection.
I know you could change the S2 to 4G only mode but I'm not seeing the option on the S3.
Any help? The 4G signal here is good. Idk why it keeps switching.

Try dialing *#*#4636#*#* then in device information set it to wcdma only.

Thanks, I tried that but it just keeps defaulting back to gsm auto. Am I missing something?
Edit: never mind I got it to stick. Thanks for your help!
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
There's a great app called network that takes you to that menu as well, a little more convenient than typing in that the numbers every time.
t-mobile sgs3 stock rom/rooted
That is normal. Try selecting one of the other options till it sticks.then select cdma only.

[Q]Signal Strength with T-Mobile?

So I'm switching over from the T-Mobile G2x and I'm getting the Galaxy Nexus from the play store next week, and I wanna know how good is T-Mobile on this phone like the signal strength? Which HSPA+ do we get 21 or 42? Just wanna make sure it works with T-Mobile.

Oh it works and its only 21 but not like bit matters no one comes close and signal strength is crap in my house it struggles to get one bar where the s2 got two or three. But service is good nonetheless
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I had a g2x. The nexus gets better service than it did across the board, but my SGS4G got a little better data speeds (its also a 21hspa+ device) whereas the nexus does better on cell service.

H is "4g". It should show 3g until its actually actively transferring data then switch to H.

(Q)Using data while on a call.

I am wondering if it is possible to be on the internet while on a telephone call? I believe there are some phones that can do this like the HTC 4G LTE but is this possible with my samsung galaxy note 2. I think I can do this using wifi but I'm talking about with a normal 3G connection is that possible.

Nope. Not possible. The galaxy s3, and evo 4g LTE can. The note 2 cannot. I'm not sure about the Galaxy S4.
You can use LTE or wifi while on a phone call with the note 2..just not 3g.
