Is there a way to create an APN that will force me to run on 2g only? I cant seem to find a toggle for 2g/3g. I downloaded an app by curvefish but it just takes me to the APN list when I click the widget, so that makes me wonder if I can create a 2g APN.
I am trying to convince my cousin to leave apple, but his one holdout is that he has to be able to toggle to 2g. I would like to see how my phone runs in 2g at work, since I work in a large steel building. I've tried *#*#4636#*#* but it just reverts. If an APN cant be set up for GSM I either need a step by step on how to get my APN to not be set to auto, or maybe a script or an apk. ANY info would be greatly appreciated.
38 views and no response, does anyone have any good info on a 2g toggle that works on an atrix?
do you mean 'edge'?

Yes, I mean 2g/edge.
I have been told that it is not possible on the atrix. Changes to data on this phone don't stick.
With 4636 code, if it revert, your rom has some prob. 4636 works properly with me.

Good morning,
I'm new in this Atrix section. I had a Desire on which I could enable/disable data during roaming with a simple checkbox in the settings menu.
I can't find this option in my Atrix's settings. This is quiet annoying since I've a french provider and work in Luxembourg. I need from times to times to enable the data connection, but can't find how to...
Can someone help ?
The options for this is under Settings>Data Manager>Data Delivery.

Hello all,
Im running the latest Omega rom and Ive noticed that Whatsapp refuses to work over data (3G) connection even if other application are not so picky. Whatsapp works as supposed with wifi connection, Please help. Several people asked this over the internet, but nobody answered.

I had the same problem not only with whatsapp but also with viber etc. I fixed it by creatin my APN settings manually.
Settings/Mobile Network/Connection Settings than tap home buttons left key / New APN
you can ask APN settings to your cell provider.
Usually it's not the cause of Whatsapp but your provider blocking it.
Many (if not most) providers are either incapable or unwilling to use transparent packet inspection (not necessarely Layer-7) and rely on the phone to have a Proxy server configured in the APN.
Interestingly exactly this proxy is usually not even given in the configuration details.
Some providers (such as mine) even attempt to do their bandwith throttling via the proxy. I don't complain since I don't use it =)
But other applications are ok with this default configuration. And Whatsapp in my HTC phone worked ok on 3G data with default settings...
later edit - found the solution 4 the problem, when flashed the new omega rom, it put all the APN profiles my provider has, including some ****ty MMS and WAP APNs. After I deleted those and left only the Internet APN, things got back in normal.

Just restor APN to default
I too had a problem in whatsaap with my Galaxy SIII - O2 germany network. Whatsapp was not working on mobile net but was super fine on wifi. I restored APN to default then it again fine.
Whatsapp application problem
Hi all,
I am using samsung galaxy s duos.I am unable to send messages through whatsapp when I am using aircel network,other networks it is working fine.Is that the problem with aircel n/w or whatsapp application.If any suggestions pls give me replies......http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/confused.gif
Also had a problem with WhatsApp messages not being delivered when on 3G but they would on Wifi. I thought it was something to do with droidwall but the resetting off APN settings makes sense.
I shall try that and hopefully it works.
Okay resetting the APN's did not work.
I am running Omega Rom and Jkay but this happened when I ran stock as well.
On 3G messages will sometimes come through immediately, sometimes not. They will always come through on Wifi. They will also come through if I open Whatsapp. Not sure if it is ISP related but when I had a Nokia on same ISP I never had this problem.
Does anyone know if something in Droidwall would be blocking this?
Thanks!
I was having problems since yesterday with my phone. Even not having the S3, one quick look here and found the solution. Thanks.

Go to Mobile manager>Data usage>control app data usage. Scroll down to Whatsapp and tick mobile data box.
This worked on my android phone.

Reseting apn settings to default worked for me :good:
Hey guys,
I recently noticed that the default network mode on the Google Edition 4.2 dump is set to 0, or "WCDMA Prefered". Thus not enabling LTE on our devices by default.
It can easily be changed by using *#*#INFO#*#* on dial pad.
Im wondering if anyone knows where the default network mode is set or how we can modify the default network mode.
Im assuming its somewhere in Phone.apk or Settings.apk or some bool god knows where, if anyone can shed some light would be appreciated.
didnt work for me is there a diff code to enable lte or have i got to reflash a diff rom
I always used *#2263# to modify network mode

You guys are off topic..
I would also like to know how to change preferred network mode on my GE rom. None of the suggestions above work for me. If I enter the code *#2263# it tries to start something, but then it FC.
*#*#4636#*#* set it in there.
Set your default network mode in your build.prop too.

What are you using to set in build.prop ? The CM10.1/2 methods of doing this does not work.

ro.telephony.default_network=(8 for me because I work with CDMA)
With that I also add a lot of prop lines for the Verizon network specifically. You'll have to add your own network's information
No matter what you set it at though, if you go into network settings it will auto-switch back to WCDMA. I haven't fixed the link and switching yet but I did change that menu link to automatically open up *#*#4636#*#* instead of the menu that switches it to WCDMA. Kind of a work around for the time being.

The point is to hard code whatever property that menu is changing right into the rom.

I agree, and I haven't been able to get it defaulted to my network by the any decompile/recompile system edits I've tried that i found through researching/reading. I'd welcome the direct answer as to where that specific bit of code lies but given this thread and the lack of answers I'm going to guess that help isn't coming.
I've been slowly working through each core app and framework editing everything relating to GSM, baseband, and radio. But I've not found or fixed that menu setting that defaults to wcdma. I've found the menu but nothing that would initiate it automatically changing to WCDMA without even clicking the dropdown menu.

have 2 problems with my LG G3 mobile network settings:
- whenever i install a ROM it automatically sets a mobile network APN with some preconfigured settings which im guessing it gets from my provider. i can set and create new APN but i wanna know how to delete the default one? there is no option to modify or delete the default one.
-if the location im in has 4G then when i set my Network Mode to GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto then all works ok but as soon as 4G signal changes to 3G or less the settings automatically reverts to GSM/WCDMA auto. how can i prevent the seetings to change automatically?
thanks in advance for any help.

The settings are gotten from a file in the roms. The rom doesnt download them from your carrier. The ability to delete them is also set up when the rom is made. So talk to the rom dev.
