How to keep photon in gsm mode. - Motorola Photon 4G

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

[Q] radio band changing?

So I installed cyanogentazz v8 the other day. I decided to check and make sure my phone was using the right radio band so I did the following:
Dialed *#*#4636#*#* > phone info and radio was set to wcdma. So I switched to cdma auto prl and then menu > select radio band. It forced close as it should. I turned the screen off for while, then I check again and it was set to gsm. I had not restarted the phone it anything like that. I switched back to cdma auto prl and turned the screen off again. A few minutes later it was set to wcdma.
Now my question is could the app toggle 2g be doing this? That's really the only thing I can of that would change the radio band. Any insight would be great.

I just changed the band and hit the back button and rebooted. I didn't do Menu > Change Radio Band. When I dialed back into the settings, it was still at prl cdma auto.
Not sure what wcdma is.. anyone know?
Checked again and it went back to wcdma. Something is changing my radio band...

Yes, Toggle 2G will reset the network type. However, new in version 0.0.8 I added an option to pick which network type to use for 2G and 3G modes. Just open the settings and set 3G to cdma auto prl

Thank you for your answer. And thank you for creating this awesome app. Saves me loads of battery without the hassle of turning data off manually every time I turn my screen off!!

I'm on CELB Froyo 2.1 and since changing my radio band from wcdma preferred (default on rom) to cdma auto (prl)(default on stock), my battery life has been crap!
Can someone explain this?
Thanks.

[Q] How to set 3g network as default, and permanently disable Data Guard

HI Folks!
I am wondering if someone knows How to set The Network mode to GSM/UMTS?
Navigating the phone tree:
Settings ---> Wireless & Network Settings --> Mobile Networks ---> Network Mode-->
Option Available:
Sprint Only!
Any CDMA!
Any GSM/UMTS
Automatic!
NO matter if I change it or not always when I reboot my phone it goes to CDMA or Automatic but always looks for CDMA.
I am using the photon with UMTS 850mzh so I need to know how to set that by default or how to hold that setting in the phone.
Also I would like to permantly Disable the "Roaming Guards" I am tire of switch off those thing everytime I reset the phone!
Thanks a lot!
p.d phone rooted and Activation thing disabled.
BOMB! bomb!
Set GSM UMTS
Dial *#*#4636#*#* -> Phone Information and select GSM auto (PRL)
Menu>settings>wireless&networks>mobile networks>roaming guards and clear the appropriate check boxes and that should solve your issue.

No data on SGS2 after enabling use of pocket data

Few days back i have disconnected in mobile network setting use of pocket data.
Now I'm in new billing period and did go back to enable use of pocket data.
But nothing happened no H+ with arrows nothing.
I did pull battery out and turn back phone on and still nothing.
Did any one had the same problem if so what's the solution please?
thanks you
Check again with your Network Carrier.
Check that you still have an APN, its correct and it's selected for use.
Phone menu / settings / wireless & networks / mobile networks / access point names
Also ensure that you haven't just selected GSM only, try Network mode "auto", if not already.
Also make sure you are not roaming.

"Phone Information"

I was just wondering if I should change from WCDMA to GSM (Only) or something else when I go to that menu when you dial *#*#4636#*#*
Does one offer better battery life? I see that I'm on WCDMA now. I'm not in a LTE location by the way.
Thanks.
Yes switch it to wcdma it will save you battery because your phone will no longer be searching for lte all the time. And also switching to GSM will save you even more

Changing that option does NOT work on the Note.

LG V10 Network Mode

Hey guys i bought LG V10 DUAL SIM H961N from Hong Kong.
But in Settings /network/more/mobile networks i cant see Network mode .
Did someone face this same problem??? or is there another way to change the network mode (2G/3G/4G)???
Hello!
You should have that option in Setting:
Settings -> More -> Mobile Networks -> Network Mode
If you don't see that option then you can try use hidden menu. Press in the phone:
*#546368#*961#
Then:
Field test -> Modem settings -> Network mode.
You can also try use others settings, which are responsible for network.

Activation 2G network on LG V10
was lucky to come across this simple way after many trials...
Go to play store and download "LG V10 hidden settings"
click on mobile network, then
Click on Network mode.
...choose your preferred network mode
(GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto)
GSM/WCDMA auto
WCDMA only
GSM only.
...enjoy your phone...
