When I connect to internet depending on the location sometimes I get the G icon sometimes the H icon.
Is it possible to set it only to connect on H (even if reception is bad, 1 bar only, rather than G with 3-4 bars reception)
Is there an App for it? than can let you choose what you wanna connect to?
I know in my nokia n95 i could go to networking and choose what i wanted but i cant seem to find that on the galaxy s.
any help would be great
thanks
LOL...
G - GPRS
H - HSDPA+ (faster than 3G)
You can't change it, It depends on your signal strength and location.

constant HSDPA+ would also kill your battery too..i would image ye?
Only as much as what constant 3G uses.
im sure its possible because here is how to do it on the Omnia HD, its just a hidden menu setting

we have the same menu on the Galaxy S, so if someone can just figure out how to get to this part then you can do it
That is to increase the speed of the 3G. You can only see results if your using 3G,not sure it will increase the speed of the HSDPA. Also this wont allow you to get more of the signal or allow you to use just 3g or hsdpa for internet, again its down to network signal and location.

You could do *#*#4636#*#* in the phone app and change CDMA/GSM Auto to WCDMA or WCDMA preferred for 3G only, but you will have no service if you leave 3G coverage since it will not revert to standard GSM.

That method didn't work for me when I tried it; each time I re-entered the menu, the settings had reverted to whatever was chosen in Menu -> Settings -> Wireless & Network -> Mobile Networks... either GSM Only or GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) depending on whether the 2G only box was checked.
To get 3G only, enter ServiceMode:
*#*#197328640#*#* -> Debug Screen -> Phone Control -> Network Control -> Band Selection
Choose WCDMA BAND for 3G only.

Yes thank you for this informaion. I was able to get to the service mode but was not able to change the band selection.
I receive the error: RAT Selection Option is Restricted !
theres probably a way to shortcut the screen with anycut but ive given up trying
I cab only get edge at work but it does actualy give me about 100 kbs
I just wanna know if this detail is right on my preferred network phone settings.I've got WCDMA (Preferred) selected,while other settings like GSM/CDMA etc were not ticked. Is that the right settings "WCDMA (Preferred)" for a mobile network in UK and on 3UK network?Thanks
WCDMA is also referred to as UMTS which is the technology behind 3G, so WCDMA (preferred) simply means that it will use 3G when it can.
oh,cheers for that.Now I get it
Hi all,
I have an Int'l D855 running CloudyG3 2.0 (lollipop) Rom
Previously, I didn't have an LTE option in the settings menu. I uninstalled the LTE APK in the /system/app menu, and now I have the GSM/WCDMA/LTE (auto) option available and enabled. However, the only way it will access 4g/LTE is if I go to the hidden menu and select 4g (only) It works fine (1800Mhz), but I can't get the phone to "prefer" 4g over HSPDA/3G at all on the auto option, only on the hidden 4g only option. Any solution?
I live in a place in Southampton in which my service provider works on gsm and lte only. My phone with v20a keeps changing my preferred network type from gsm/wcdma/lte auto to a default (I don't know where this is declared) gsm/wcdma preferred. Any piece of advice on how to change this?
Thank you in anticipation!
Try APM+ (Xposed addon)
It gives you the options to customise the power menu and one of them is a 2G/3G/4G switch
Well..
To be honest there is no point in having a toggle, i just want a solution so that my phone doesn't automatically change back to wcdma from lte after a while...i think its something in the settings
HI ALL,
my lg g3 f400s have this problems in LTE network. before some weeks all going good but now
when i connect only GSM mode it works great, All signals good and connected to network.
When i connect to forcefully LTE Only mode or Auto mode, it shows Emergency mode only, where as i connected to band 3 (1800mhz) which my service provider band and also have in my lg g3 f400s band.
1. In LTE mode where phone shows emergency mode only, signals bar shows full signals.. setting>>about>> network shows signals strength in some values in dBM( it means it have signals LTE) .Service State shows ( Out of service).
2. when i enter in to Hidden menu LG g3 *#546368#*400# >> modem settings >> Engineering Mode Here LTE signals shows, Bandwidth also shows
but
EMM STATE : DEREG
SUB STATE : LIMITED_SERVICE & some time it shows ATTACH_NEEDED
RRC : IDLE
GUTI : FFXXXXXXXXX
