my X10 runs in Freex10
now,
my previous original 2.1 used to provide an option to switch between
Cdma/Wcdma/UTMS.in which i used UTMS to configure my service provider manually.now with free x10 i can not configure it manually it gives me a error
Just go to settings, wireless, mobile networks, and unclick the "use 2g networks" option.

Hello everyone,
How can I easily turn off 3g and on 2g on android 2.3.3? I'm on Wolfbreak's ROM which works perfectly, but when I'm not actively using my phone I would like to set it to use 2g only.
When I googled I found this way, but I'm hoping for a more easy solution:
1. Dial *#*#4636#*#*
2. Phone informatie
3. Set Preferred Network Type:
- GSM only = 2g
- WCDMA preferred = 3g
Does anyone know a more easy way to set my phone to 2g?
Hi there, go to settings ----> wireless & networks -----> Mobile Networks -----> Network Mode. Hope that helps.

It helps, a lot easier! ;-) In previous Android version you could turn off the 3g box, I couldn't find that one!
Hi,
i use the app Quick Settings for turn on and off
greets
I read everywhere that since 2.3.3 switching between 2g and 3g is not possible anymore, all the switch apps only place shortcuts to the settings menu.
The only one that really has this feature is a CM ROM.
Is there any way on a rooted non CM ROM to place a widget that can switch between 2g and 3g just by pressing it?
hi guys,
I am living in area, which have very poor 3G connection, so i am looking for method to limit the arc to use only 2G connection. Is there any application or a way that Arc only use 2G network? SE has somehow changed the default "Mobile Network" in settings, it is only possible to choose "only 3g" but not "only 2g".
I have an unrooted Arc with android 2.3.3.
In the Phone application, dial *#*#4636#*#*
Go to phone settings, and under network type select "GSM only", that should do the trick.
You might want to try "GSM Auto (PRL)", if 3G is indeed very poor, the phone should (in theory) not use it in your area, but it would switch to it when you go to places with better coverage.
This is not the Q&A forum! Or you don't care guys?

Sorry, when i made this thread, i thought i had to post it here, because it has something to do with application. But now i think, you are right, i should have posted it in Q&A. It seems that your Arc is branded by "3". I am living in Denmark, my Arc is also "3" branded. They have horrible connection in DK. I think you do not have this poor 3G connection problem, because you might have flashed with the generic rom.
Hi, I have a xperia mini pro(sk17a) and my problem is that the 3G don't work in my cell phone, I was reading ont the internet and maybe my cell phone doesn't support 850Mz band(I am from Peru and 3G works in 850mz).
Is there any solution? or maybe there is any way(software) that my cell phone can work with 850MZ
Settings - wireless and networks - mobile networks and check if there is 3G chosen. If yes and phone doesn't use it, then maybe no 3g in your area.

The question is, if topic starter means internet connection or 3G signal.
Which phone do you have, Sk17i or Sk17a? Both are Xperia Mini Pro, but have different 3G bands. You can check it in Settings - About phone and there is model number.
the problem is that when I activate the enable data in my cell phone(to use the mobile network to connect to internet) I only see the letter "E" that means 2G(Edge) and never appear "3G" or "H"(HSPA), and I Know that the problem is in my cell phone , because I have other cell phone that can connect to 3G without any problem but my xperia mini pro "SK17a" cannot.
for this reason I think that the problem is my cell phone don't support 850 band
I know some samsung galaxy phone have the same probleme ,don't support 850 band , and they can change their modems to make the the cell phone could support 850 band. but I don't find a modem for the sk17a with android 2.3.4.
features of my cell phone
-xperia mini pro sk17a
-network mode wcdma(preferred)/GSM
-android 2.3.4
-baseband version 8X55A-AAABQOAZM-203028D-58
-compilation number 4.0.2.A.0.58
-type: AAD-3880104-BV

mine is sk17i
Sk17a supports 3G 850 MHz band, so it has to be another problem.
Settings-Wireless and Networks-Mobile Networks - Mobile operators
Can it find your operator's 3G network? If yes, try to manually register it, just click on it. If not, then your phone cannot find it. My LWW doesn't always connect to 3G, if it isnt strong enough.
I have same problem(sk17a). My other device working 3G.
What the defference between "3G" and "E"DGE?
Just speed only?
Did you find a solution?

Hi, did you find a solution? I have exactly the same situation and I don't know what to do. I really appreciate if you could help me!
I know this is a old thread just wanted to post this link if the problem isn't solved yet,

Flashing sk17i baseband might solve your problem
You might need to fix your APN settings, which are located at Settings- More- Mobile networks- Access Point Names. Google your carrier and APN (for example, "ATT APN"). I came up with a couple of different configurations which I saved in separate APN names and played with them until I figured out what worked best for me. Hope that helps you out.

I've a Galaxy Ace flashed with CM7.2 RC1.
I always have the Wi-Fi turned on and also the Mobile Data, so when I'm at home I use the Wi-Fi connection, but when I'm out I have access to the Network Internet.
My problem is that my mobile is often marking the option "Use Only 2g networks". So mannualy I disable this option, but few minutes later the option is marked again...
Do you know why is this happening? Is really annoying cause when I'm out im just having 2g internet...
Note: In my GSM/UMTS preferences I'm current usin GSM/WCDMA (WCDMA preferred), but I also used the GSM/WCDMA (auto-mode), and happened the same.
I m using photon on gsm network. I want to know is there any way.to keep the phone in gsm mode by default? It seems the phone goes back to cdma mode if its out of network for long duration. Can anyone help with build.prop edit? I'm currently using cm7

Dial *#*#4636#*#*. Go to phone information, and under "Set preferred network type" choose "GSM auto (PRL)".
Settings -> Wireless / Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Network Mode:Any GS/UMTS
Select Network - Automatic
Tried the above method but in case the phone is put of network it goes to cdma by default. There is build.prop edit which avoids it but I'm not able to recollect where i read it
