Problem Switching between network mode. Please help - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a samsung galaxy music duos . It had come with 4.0.4 - in network mode there were 3 options - GSM ONLY
CDMA ONLY & AUTO MODE.
Now after updating to jelly bean it has got changed to

At some places where 3g is available it still uses 2g and sometimes keeps switching between 2g and 3g . Is there something i can do to use 3G ONLY ie, CDMA ONLY network ??? Can apps like tasker do the job ??
THANK YOU

I think the problem might be the reception on your phone. Sometimes the 3G signal may be weak so your phone chooses the stronger 2G option. This happens to me often, especially at home where cellphone signal is weak.
Indeed, it is I.

Also, if you choose 3G only and end up in a place with 2G only, then your phone will essentially be "off". Obvious inconvenience were it in your pocket at the time.
Indeed, it is I.

[Q] 2G 3G Toggle on Galaxy S2

I was wondering where the toggle to only use 2G networks has been moved since i can't find it on the usual location of Settings-> Wireless and network -> Mobile Networks
In my last phone (and to my knowledge, on all android phones) there is an option there to only use 2G networks. But on my Galaxy S2 it's nowhere to be found.
Has this been moved to another location? Has it been disabled?
This is a screenshot of what i see:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Hold the power button and select data connection.
There is no option called "Data connection". There is an option called Data Network mode but that simply turns off mobile data connections. This is the screenshot:
From settings select "Only GSM". That corresponds to 2G.

Another way to do is use the code *#*#4636#*#* >> Phone Information >> choose the network mode you prefer.
You can set it in Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Network > Network Type > GSM Only
Or just download Extended Controls and use the widget
EDIT: At least it's there on mine
Hmm so it appears that my phone doesn't have that option. Maybe because it's carrier locked our something? It's a 3 phone.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I think "3" is only 3G, nothing to switch
I meant my phone is from the carrier 3 in the UK. Maybe they put their customized ROM or something on the device and I am missing the option to switch to GSM only.
The *#*#4636#*#* option works but is not a viable solution. It takes too long to go to the option. Plus I will surely forget the number. Any other suggestions?
Get unbranded firmware?
Well I don't want to change my entire firmware just for that. If the need arises (could be very soon) I will but for now I was hoping for another solution
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
All Three network phones tend to have this function removed as by default they are a 3G network. Anytime you roam onto 2G it is using another network (I believe it's Orange) and costs Three money.
The 3 network in the UK only operates on 3G, so there is not GSM/GPRS/Edge option available on their network.
Same problem, semi-solution
I also have a samsung mini bought from 3 uk which I unlocked to use another sim and a sim in Africa (where I have to get a full day's battery).
I put the *#*# etc. number as a contact. I can't call directly from the contact, but typing *#*# is enough to bring the number up so I can copy.
I understand why three did it, but it is annoying.
I hope that helps, but if you found a better way, please share!

This is currently the most important tweak I am searching for...
---------- Post added at 11:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 AM ----------
Hi all,
I found it!!!!
First enter service menu via secret code
*#197328640#
In the menu, choose the following items sequentially:
1 (debug screen)
8 (phone control)
3 (nas control)
5 (rcc HSPA control)
And then you will find the well known menu to change the HSDPA settings, as on Galaxy S and SII.
I just tested it - it works and also survives reboots.
Enjoy

Still doesn't really explain why you want to do this.

Easy... it is a battery saver.
With my SGS1 it was quite significant.
Reference: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=837716
If mobile does not switch all the time between 3g and H, H+... which is power consuming... it safes lots of energy.
For me makes a big difference.

Thank you !

Various modems will have different characteristics and also check to see if fast dormancy is enabled and if your carrier supports It. With this , it should drop back to 3G umts when idling, and ramp up to HSPA etc if required.
If your carrier doesn't, suggest disabling. There is a dialer code for it ........
Better modems will come as Samsung releases firmware for the various regions and telcos

Is there any way to set it to JUST HSPA+ so it doesn't drop down to H or 3G all the time?

No. H+/H/3G are really pretty much the same thing. They are all W-CDMA/UMTS 3G air interfaces that operate pretty much the same way. Just because the indicator changes, doesn't mean you are connected to a different 'type' of network. Only if it switches to E or G then you are on an older network.
It works to tnr off h+ but what can I do to turn it back on? I need h+

You can turn off and on HSPA and GSM in the Network Settings.

GSM is neither 3g nor HSPA. So that option doesn't work (tried it anyways) any other ideas?

Huh??
There are three settings.
GSM Only (which is GPRS and EDGE)
GSM/WCDMA
WCDMA Only (which is 3G, H and H+)
Where is the confusion??

Well, there is no confusion. My problem is that I have 3g but since I did that thing where you turn HSPA off with the code (*#197320640#) I can't het H+ again! So that's what I was asking.
any idea what is the new codes are?
*#197328640# doesn't seem to work with Android 4.3 any more (i am on Samsung Omega ROM)

[Q] No 4g LTE bad sim card - Solved

I traded my Galaxy Nexus 32GB for a Note2 and it was rooted. The phone works fine but I am unable to get a 4G LTE signal.
Network Mode was set to Global, I changed to LTE and made no difference. I have also made the changes through the hidden menus.
Any ideas?

What does it say in the "About Phone" section of Settings?
Also, you reference not being able to get 4G LTE signal only. Do you get a data connection at all? (3G, 2G, 1X, etc.)

Ok, that's the current baseband and the latest version of that particular ROM. By your screenshot, I am inferring that your phone has the bootloader unlocked with a custom recovery installed. Have you tried installing another 4.1.2 ROM to see if that fixes the issue?
Also, I know you mentioned that you had already tried the hidden settings menu. When you reached it, did you select LTE/CDMA and see if your setting stayed? Can you post a screenshot of your "Status" screen in Settings? I'm interested in seeing what it lists for "Mobile Network Type".
Under Mobile Netorms
Network Mode
Preferred network mode: cdma/LTE/EVDO
I did a fresh install of this rom

Honestly, it looks like you have a bad radio. If that phone is still under warranty, then ask Samsung for a replacement.
If someone traded a Galaxy Nexus for a Note 2 than something must have been wrong with the Note 2.
Resolved now. It was a bad Sim card. It wasn't a straight trade. I added 90. He said he could not use the phone one handed.

It's is. If wifi calling connection settings is set to wifi preferred it shows any other setting I don't get the icon
My V10
if you have setup wifi calling it means its on and the calls you make will be over wifi, if you haven't set up wifi calling its telling you wifi calling is on and that you need to set it up or it will make calls over wifi when signal is stronger over wifi. thats how it worked and looked since i had a black berry Perl, which is why it looks so out of place lol.
Well the icon is there even with WiFi and VOLTE off...there is no wifi calling in the settings....
as stated, its the wifi calling icon..
thing is..im on the tmobile variant and my wifi calling icon appears on the left side with the 3rd party icons/notifications
any thoughts on how to disable it?

[OOS 4.1.0]OnePlus 3/3T Cellular Network Settings App

This is an app for OnePlus 3/3T running OxygenOS 4.1.0.
This App allows to open dual sim cellular network settings activity where you can select network modes like GSM only, WCDMA only, LTE only etc.
Toggle VoLTE On/Off.
This Settings activity is from "com.qualcomm.qti.networksetting" package which is different from stock OOS cellular settings.
Note : Only the sim card selected for data connection can be set to LTE mode. The secondary sim card will automatically fall back to GSM mode.

I don't know how to do that. Actually I don't think that's possible since this is only a shortcut app which launches the settings activity from a Qualcomm network settings app already present in OOS
Google Play Store search shortcut
can we use this in ob5 without issue?
Did you by any chance get Wifi Calling on Jio to work on OP3T? It was working fine as long as my phone was on MM but went away when I upgraded to Nougat
Works also in OP3T with OOS 4.1.3
