theoretical max for edge is around 470 kbps (bits not bytes). and you will get this speed if you have no interference and you are the only one in the entire cell using it.
so, whatever you do, you cannot improve the 2g speeds (to which you are hoping). maybe you can install a more optimized kernel which might get you a more better processing time.

When u uncheck 2g network, device have permission to use 3g network...so u definitely get 3mbps in 3g

Some network providers do not support this 2g-3g mod...like in my vodafone if i selects 3g,i dont gets network...the same may be on airtel...they provide speed according 2 ur plan so this trick won't apply for some providers...

When your provider does not offer 3g there is no way u can use umts mode bcos a 3g activated similar is a pre requisite!

Could you share a TUT bro?
Cant seem to find one anywhere (google + xda) :/
using andys rom.
Here u go guys its a very simple method ..
I have tested this on aircel and airtel but do not know about other providers and many rumors are saying trick in airtel is no more working..at present I'm using aircel and getting average speed of 430kb/sec using idm while tethering ..occasionally goes higher but never stays there ..
Points to be noted:
1)it is neccessary to have 3g coverage in your area.
2)it is adviced to keep balance below 10rs to avoid problems.
Steps :-
1)activate 2g plan ,like I have a 98 Buck plan for a month..
2)get the settings installed, for aircel apn is aircelgprs.PR
3)activate 3g .
4)now connect to internet using 2g!
5) u will get 'e' symbol on top..
6) now go to setting n select network type and select 2g/3g preferred ..
I use 3g only and haven't been charged till now ..
7) after a few seconds the 'e' symbol will change to' h' ie hsdpa ..
8) enjoy high speed internet..
***
For changing network to 2g /3g preferred, we have the network selection mode option in miks 6.5.8 ..if u r not using dis rom just untick the" use 2g only" option.
Or get the app named 'network'

Could anyone confirm it works on Airtel ?
Currently walking to the airtel shop :/
you should know that its already fixed by airtel in many areas, the chances of it working is very less
Im using airtel 2g sim, andhra pradesh, I have activated 98 internet plan,
All I need to do is to switch to wcd ma mode in network settings and voila I get descant spped of 1.3mb speed, I hv checked using speed test app

im already on a 3g plan, i will do it after 1 month..
u can try using a friends sim activated with 2g plan on ur phone
I am having this problem with my phone at home. If I don't touch the phone it shows 3G signal but as soon as I pick it up it goes down to Edge/Gprs. And as soon as I go outside it works normally. Don't know why this is happning. I thought it might be CM Rom so I revert back to stock rom but it didn't work.
So Please help.

You mean select 3g only under data connection setting? Would that increase speed? I don't know why I'm having such issue.
And do you know where exactly is the antenna located?
Yes ..i meant that ..it improves signal capturing capability and also helps unwanted battery wastage by preventin your fone from consatly searchin 2g/3g..about speed might be very marginal..;-)

I had a question for you guys using the international on AT&T.
On my GS2 I remember when data was not being used and was idle the signal meter would show 3G and switch to UMTS and when I used the connection it would switch to H/H+ HSPA.
With my GS3 however, it's constantly showing H even when it's idle. It's NEVER really goes into UMTS mode even when it's idle. I've seen it switch to 3G for a split second every now and then, but then switches right back to H in a split second. In my status I see it's using the HSPA network, not UMTS. The times that I saw it switch to 3g for a split second (I happened to have the status open) I saw it switch to UMTS then switch right back to HSPA.
I know switching to UMTS when the connection is idle saves battery life So I'm wondering since mine doesnt switch to UMTS if it's affecting the battery life
I've tried different modems, in network settings it's set to Auto.
So my question (after that wall of text) is does your phone switch the UMTS when it's idle and show 3G? Or is it constantly showing H like mine?
I'm trying to figure out why the hell it wont stay in UMTS when there is no data activity. If it does switch to 3G/UMTS when it's idle anyone have any ideas what could be going on with mine?
anyone? lol

I actually asked this question myself a few weeks back and never got a straight answer. It would be nice to know, since mine is always on H. My S2 did the same thing, would always switch to 3g when idle.

Maybe you guys should try gokhanmorals fast dormancy app from the play store.
And maybe take a look at the thread that was floating around here about proper fast dormancy settings for at&t.
Mine switches from h to 3g as soon as it stops transferring data.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Mine switches to 3G as soon as data is stopped transferring. No problems here. and it will sit on 3G until data kicks in again and picks up to H+

hmm so it also happens to K Rich's phone. Can you do me a favor? from the dialer hit *#0011# what band does it say when it's connected to 3G/UMTS?
I can also get it to stay on 3G constantly by changing a setting in the advanced phone control menu, but then it doesnt switch to HSPA when data is active.
Sorry never mind. It doesnt do it anymore since i am on LG8 :/

anytime a device is using a dual band router...5ghz is the fastest on wifi.....make sure when choosing it..your wifi setting are not on 2.4 or auto...make sure your on 5ghz as well to achieve maximum performance..do this by clicking menu in wifi setting I believe
Hmm, tried that but no change even when standing right by the router.
Thanks though.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
I think you have reached the limit of the device if you are seeing 65....g
if your just looking at your wifi screen and it says 65mb....that's not telling you much at all...download speedtest app in market....make 2 profiles 1 with your 2.4 ghz with password on router and a 5ghz one....now scan your phone and simpky try each and test each one separatetly on wifi, that's the only way to know what ghz is really faster, then looking at the wifi login screen..
You must not live in the US. I would kill for those speeds.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Are you sure your not looking at this menu..lmao....Yes the picture of my 2.4 ghz says 65mpbs but with testing. the note will never achieve this value..believe me...the most I have ever seen is upper 40's on wifi....the picture of your your wifi screen means hardly nothing...testing it on speedtest will verify what thkse actual wifi speeds are

Yeah so is mine but that'll only give you local transfer speeds, not from the Internet
It's been a while since I looked ...
But the note maximum wifi capacity is in the 50-60 range I believe ...
Again ...I honestly can't remember.
That sure would a nice speed ...
My best is around 10 down ....g
This is my fastest on wifi...some higher on Lte...I made a thread in general section called Att apn hack if interested...here's my screen shots..
so yes its possible..

by the way, wouldnt the note write speed limit you anyway?
like your connection is 300mb u say. so say you had it transferring at 250mb....but could it? since i doubt the note could write data that fast? well at least not to the emmc. doesnt where u writing to internal or external matter as to how fast those memory/drives are?

Absolutely .....g
Does anyone know a method just to stick with h+ data signals instead of switching to 3g.
Fyi in my area 3g reception is poor n always toggle between h+ n 3g.
The h+ signal is pretty good n it's enough for use also.
Therefore I thought if I can stick with h+ it will save my battery life.
Please comment your idea or solution.
Thnx in advance
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
You can only set your phone to your mobile providers Mobile Data capabilities. It is not something you can set to work at just h+... this depends on the strength of your carrier in the particular area you are at. Your phone will pick up the best signal it can. Mine also goes back and forth, depending where my location is... and the building structure I'm at (and how much interference there is between buildings, etc)... unless it's some hardware you can attach (like antenna on inside of back cover) to boost signal.
I remember for my S2 device... someone posted a way to just have a certain mobile data signal... but it didn't really work, just had the symbol, but obviously still can only get what my phone was able to pick up.
If someone else knows a solution I haven't heard of, would like to hear it.
Oh thnx.
Plus no one will try to create a mod to use the less power signal instead of 3g. So seems like this is it.
But my idea was if a developer can make a mod to stop looking for better signals after achieving h+ that's it.
