No but flash superclean 3.5 and you can turn mobile data off

You can turn off 3G a number of ways without flashing a custom ROM; either way you're still going to have the cell signal strength showing.
If its rooted delete dialertabactivity.apk .

I have a rooted vibrant running stock Tom with the j16 update and my 3g works intermittently at best. Is there any fix I can do myself?? Its understandable if I were in a cave but I'm getting full bars and my signal strength is -89 dbm 12 Asus. Please please anyone. I'm almost to the point where I'm about to call T-Mobile and see if they can switch me out a different phone. I hate the idea of paying for the web and nit being able to use it. BTW, if I pull my battery off and restart the data connection will work for about 10 mibs

I'm interested to see the answer/suggestions as well, I've been having the same issue.
It will work then not, a restart or going into flight mode and back will get it working for awhile. It does it over Wi-Fi too..(Sound familiar?)........... It's done it stock, rooted with OCLF, with ji6 and now even with Bionix 1.9
Yeah I mean my wifi works all the time but now even when I do the airplane mode it doesn't bring back my 3g data connection. Its driving me bat **** tho. How about u?

How good it the 3G coverage in your area?
Try a market app called Map Viewer. At home I'm out of 3G coverage.
OK I will try to download it and let you know

Do a factory data reset.

well I found out from the map that my 3g coverage system work is supposedly non existence. Go figure. So I'm basically getting snippets of it. If I do a factory reset I will lose all my info right? And when you say reset do u mean using Odin and flashing stock 2.1?

Do it from the phone settings, privacy. Yes, u will loose all yr apps, but save them using appsaver from android market first. Your new rom update will still be there. Hope this helps. Thats what I did to correct my 3g issue, just like what you described.

just throwing this idea out there. tmobile could be doing tower work in your area. i experienced this for awhile where data was just iffy and wasnt very reliable. this may happen on and off for a few days.
So im kinda confused about the wifi calling app. Does it use your minutes? if so why not turn wifi on and use your phone? whats the purpose of the app? Thanks
It does uses your minutes,its usually use when you have no coverage and with is available

But why do you need an app? Why not just turn wifi on thru the drop down bar?
Trigger 2.9.2
Wifi calling is not the same as just turning on wifi.
Think of it as replacing your regular phone signal (not data) with your current wifi connection. This app does just that, without using some voip thing, and your phone is still identified by your sim card. Just, you have wifi as your signal instead of some cell tower.

Hotspot will not work with 4G. I recommend you d/l wifi tether. That is what I use for 4G. Just do a forum search, I've seen posts w/ the apk attached that should work for you .
Looked up one link. I know that the latest version is 108, but here is a link for 105.
http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com/files/wifi_tether_v3_1-pre105.apk
Or even better reference this thread. I believe that V107 is available.

I can't get any internet when on g or 3g only when on h. I don't know what's going on. I'm on the latest update. Oh and I'm with Vodafone.
Thanksbkn advance, jay

That is normal when on GSM you only get Edge (E or G) when on WCDMA you get 3G HSDPA connection speeds depending on your contry and zone (ofcorse on the antenna in that area).
No, I'm on auto mode so it selects itself. Its just when the signal drops from a H signal to a 3G signal or a G signal and that's what is displayed on my phone then no internet can be accessed at all. The phone connection is still fine, just internet or anything that uses internet connection, won't load.
I hope that makes more sense

I am having problem in accessing mobile data from day I started using JB leaks. I am getting H+ signal but not internet. It works some times. May be it's just coincidence. Is anyone having this problem?

i dont believe there have been many threads reguarding your issue....of having a network but with no internet.
i assume you have run down the typical trouble shooting
APNS
MODEMS
ECT....
Oh, and when you switch back to ICS does it start working agian?
APN looks fine.
I am using the Odin version of LI5.
Going back to ICS - Naaah. ...

I'm having a very similar problem on my UK handset on orange running latest jellybean Rom.
There are times when I am trying to load an internet page or xda subscribed thread for example and the phone shows full signal and the data is switching between 3g and h+ on and off and the arrows show nothing happening or data transfer.
I normally end up exiting the page/app and restarting it.
Is this a modem problem? Do I need to flash a different one?
