I don't think it possible. HSPDA is part of 3G, like a (newer) version. You may switch to 2G completely, but not '3G only' and not going up to HSPDA.
If something like this would be possible, it most likely only achievable by modifying Android's code in one of the file that controls the radio. But not something off the default settings or codes.

I think that's possible because they've done it in this theard : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/301279-4-0-4-t1818661 . and like you said, by modifiying radio settings.
Anyways,Thank you for you answer!
I'll keep searching if there's any other solution that would help me save my battery.

Softbank X04HT ROM (USIM nag screen removed)

Hi,
I cooked my first rom of Softbank X04HT with annoying USIM nag screen removed.
*** This ROM includes OS only ***
For unlocking issue, please see here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414835
Other Mods:
- Sample Pictures, Wallpapers, Videos and Musics (.wmv) have been removed from the rom.
I didnt do many mods on this rom.... because I don't know how to...
Other Mods that I want to do if someone can help me:
- Remove all the default weather location (not from the full list, but the selected cities)
Finally, for people who want the mods, please PM me and keep the link for your own use. And don't forget, this is my first cooked ROM (by newbie) and use it as your own risk.
Thank you.

I have tried this ROM too, thanks to Sky Man:
1) yes it can run on any CID unlocked Diamond
2) yes it can make calls. I had exactly the same problem at first. You have to go to the phone/band settings: by default, it's set on 3G only. U've got to change this according with the service available where you live (automatic, GSM, try and see which setting works better for you)
3) the ROM was running fine and fast but I came a across a major bug, therefore I had to uninstall it: after the phone entered sleep mode there was no way to wake it up. Pressing the 'on' button would have no effect and I had to soft reset every time.
Thanks Sky Man for your hardwork anyway. Hope this can be fixed.
(I reinstalled telsta ROM and the bug has disapeared.

Thanks for your message.
There could be a chance that your radio doesnt work with my ROM (actually, the rom from Softbank). Since I didnt do any tuning or mods on the settings, and I have no problem of using the ROM, therefore, I guess the problem could be radio (Im just gussing)
Other people who used this rom pls comment on it ~

Dial up connection
Hi, this ROM works well except softbank dial-up connection. It seems that this ROM doesn't have any connection setting. Do you know how I can restore softbank connection setting? (I'm using softbank USIM)

[Q] GPS not working on s8500 with bada 2.0

Hello Everyone,
I have flashed my s8500 to Bada 2.0. Its GPS is not working.

You can flash custom Roms that solve this problem. There is also some settings you can play with in the GPS menu.
With advanced GPS it works much better
On many bada 2.0 firmwares the GPS is broken and just doesn't work, the reason it seems to work when you turn AGPS on sometimes is because it simply uses network location instead(with some exceptions), but I've been unable to even get it that far most of the time, you'll probably have to try the custom firmwares as has been suggested, because stock firmwares tend to keep removing settings modifications when rebooting.
Other option is bada 1.2
Sent from my Galaxy GIO
Though Navigation is very slow in the WAVE (bada 1.2 and bada 2.0), it works. You need only patience at the first instance.
The custom firmwares make no difference and so not recommended as a solution, except you are willing to use Network services (which cost money) to navigate.
SOLUTION: The best solution is to verify that you are using the correct firmware for your region (for correct network settings).
Most importantly, cross-check your setting to make sure that Navigation appears under Application Profiles (without which you may never get a GPS fix).
Check like this: Menu => Setting => Network => Application Profiles => Navigation (+ your network name).
If Navigation is missing from the setting, or exists without any network name, please verfiy your Network setting. And obviously you will be able to navigate.
Best of luck.

I am already using custom firmware. It is based on Chinese firware with miner changes and Urdu language is included in it.
Can you suggest some good custom Firmware with support for Urdu language. OR suggest some change in settings.

I have flashed my set with Elite ROM (released 16-04-2012) but GPS is still not working without gprs.
Any other trick to catch sattelite signals. Can anyone explain settings with *#7092463*#

[Q] Stock ROM for Denmark (XB or CP)

Hi,
I recently decided to try CM9 for my I8150, which worked great.
However, now I'd like to restore to the Stock ROM, I've found many guides on these forums explaining how and linking to lists of stock ROMs, but none for my country (Denmark).
Bases on Sammobile list CP or XB is the ones I'm looking for, but i can't seem to find them anywhere not or this forum or thru google-searches.
So, can anyone tell me where I can find one of those ROMs or tell me an alternative way to return to stock?

[Q] Korean Version SHV-370K - ROM/GroupPlay/ChatON

Hey people,
I recently purchased a Korean variant of the S4 Mini. The model is SHV-370K. To my findings, its equal to the main version I9195. Is that correct? I do have the NFC chip installed. My question is, can I flash an official ROM like the ones used in the I9195? I have to much KOREAN language apps and I dont think I am prepared to root it. If I can flash an official ROM on this via ODIN?, will I still be able to get the OTA? My current version is 4.2.2. And checking on Sammobile I have the latest. The Korean stuff is just to much of a hassel and I am not sure if I will even get an update. Can I flash an official ROM and not lose warranty and root?
My second question is that I cannot make Group Play work on 2 of these S4 Mini's. They just dont connect. It says Network Lost and sometimes failed to join group. I've tried working it over with NFC and Wifi Direct. Normal gallery pictures and everything send easy, just this app that I really really want to use. Would be great if some one would help me.
My last question is that ChatON keeps giving an Error while checking for push services. I have tried everything. Changed networks, tried Mobile Networks. All my apps are up to date, even the annoying Samsung Push Service. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much people.
Have a great day.
Oh and I think its Carrier Branded? Cuz it has this Olleh writen on its back cover?
So ChatON and Group Play is working after they have been updated most recently. I did update them before but they dint seem to work. The current updates work good. Any one about the ROM issue? Would love some help <3.

Hi guys,
Have you found any solution to this problem? I'm also an [almost] happy owner of a Korean-branded S4 Mini and as USSD codes don't work, was told that firmware needs to be changed. But this being specifically a Korean phone, I'm not sure other ROMs out there will even be 100% compatible.
Thanks,
Vit

Thanks, but I don't think I have to enter a password, since other phones work without it. Unless it's somehow phone-specific, but my operator reps would probably have told me (instead they just said the firmware needs to be changed). What secret menu are we talking about? perhaps aI could investigate. At any rate, if there someone has managed to flash the Korean version of the phone with a more "universal" firmware, I'd like to know. Thanks!

Please forgive me as I'm a total noob, but after your last reply it hit me: we're probably talking about different USSDs. I meant that my operator USSD codes didn't work, the ones that I send to find out my remaining balance and to also enable/disable services etc. (e.g. I would send *444#2#1 to find out my remaining balance), not the phone's own USSD codes (like the service menus etc, e.g. the IMEI check with *#06#). Operator USSD codes just don't work - the phone either sits trying to connect for a few minutes (locking the phone down during this time), or just says that the signal is too weak. So I guess I do need to install a different firmware to fully unlock it.
Thanks for trying to help though, I'm learning new stuff!

Mate I have the same problem here. The USSD codes just dont work. My balance check does work though. All I have noticed that USSDS that need two steps dont work. Example to transfer credits, I type *456# and in return it should ask me what number I need to transfer my credits, but it just doesnt work. I have tried the menu but no idea what that is all about. Still cannot find what to do.
Secondly I met some one at the forums who has the same device as ours. HE said installing Cynogen Mod is working and it doesnt effect us having a model of SHV something. LOL. So I dont know if I should go ahead and flash a custom rom. I would rather flash an official rom but no one is helping here and I cant seem to find any. Like maybe we could flash an english rom from UK. Something official like the normal I9195 have! Not some korean ones.
New Update.
Hey people! I just got an OTA update and all I see new is a Google Drive icon. The update is still on 4.2.2 and not 4.3. It was about 96mb of file size. How can I take out the changelog and read what bug fixes it brings?
hello
how to do I move from SHV or change the CSC code?
for now getting only the Korean pop up messages.
Want to change to Australia CSC code.

I've read about CSC Select app (on google play market), but I think you need root for this to work. I'm not an expert on that though.

[Fix GPS] For all devices based on Android [FLASHABLE ZIP]

Many people say that they have on the СM11-СM 12 bad GPS.
In order to keep the GPS for work we will need to:
We need:
The program AGPSUtility
Fix GpS despite what country you live choose.
Install instructions:
Wipe data and cache
Flash the Fix GpS.zip despite what country you live choose.
Reboot
Install AGPSUtility
FAQ​Abot AGPSUtility
1.This is not a system application, but this application is invisible. It reacts to an event module switch GPS.
2 Do not need to run the program in advance or keep open, it suffices to establish the usual way.
3 The program can be shut down without having to remove it. To do this, you need to run it a shortcut from the program list and click on the switch.
4 Switch OFF / ON, but the default is OFF, so after installation you must include it.
5 Do not remove from startup and unload from memory.
How work AGPSUtility ?
1 When you turn on the GPS settings android (in the menu, or in the quick menu, or in any special programs - it does not matter) to zero the data AGPS.
2 If the navigation program is already running, and it is necessary to get fresh AGPS data, you can do OFF / ON the GPS settings android, without leaving the program navigation.
3 If your Internet connection is not available, the program will write about it. This would mean that the update AGPS is not possible. The old data will not remove.
4 If the Internet is, the program will reset the AGPS data cache and write about it. Navigation software will get fresh data.
