Hey,
Is there anyway to force a reconnect to 3G network without switching to 3G only? Say i'm in a bad reception spot and i'm only getting 2G/EDGE, then i'm moving to a spot I know I can get a 3G/4G connection but my phone takes a really long time to switch over? Is there any command you can use in terminal or in the dial pad to force a recheck for a better network? I still want to use the network mode "2G/3G/4G auto".

Hello,
In my area I find that I keep jumping from HSDPA to Edge and back constantly, which breaks my data connection briefly. It's very annoying.
I found that changing the setting to WCDMA only fixed this, and did not result in loss of data connection - it just kept me where I needed to be.
Only problem is at my house, suddenly I could not connect to my wireless internet no matter what I tried. I could connect to the neighbors slower open internet connection, but not my own. Tried everything. When I set it back to Auto mode, I could connect again with ease.
Any suggestions for a way to be WCDMA only and still connect to my wireless? I don't understand networking well enough to help myself.
I'm looking for a smart wireless management app for my Streak.
Main function I'm looking for is the ability to let it automatically switch between WiFi and 3G as soon as signal drops below an exact specified value.
Right now I have a fairly fast 3G connection on Vodafone NL, but when I'm home I switch to Wifi to save cost. At some spots in my house the 3G connection is way faster then my Wifi signal, so I want it to atomatically choose the fastest connection.
Is there any simple app out there that chooses the connection with best send/receive qualitiy?Anyone knows about an app that can do this?

There isn't one that chooses, your phone does that already, but there is this widget
And/or this
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Is there a way to keep the S3 from switching Wifi networks? Tasker, Mods, anything.
Let's say you have two SSIDs. They have some overlap. When you're in the overlap zone, the phone keeps disconnecting.
I want the phone to stay connected to the same SSID, unless the signal becomes truly horrible.
I know how to switch to a different SSID if better signal with tasker, but I can't find a way to tell the phone NOT to disconnect unless X. Is that even possible?
Thanks!
Hi,
You probably already noticed that by your self..
When you're downloading something over 3G, and you turn the WIFI on during the process, there is no problem because it authenticates and connects the WIFI network and meanwhile keeps the 3G still alive.. it only shuts it off when the WIFI is completely connected and therefore the download is not hanging off..
Unfortunately it was not programmed backward.
When you are on WIFI and turning off the WIFI to move to 3G, or perhaps when you were at home and now walking away the range and so it automatically disconnects it, so it leaves the WIFI first and few seconds later it trigger the 3G and connect it..
During those few seconds you lose the connection and if you were on downloading process it hangs off..
So I was thinking, why not force the 3G on, connects, and only then, hang off the WIFI..
Any app that can do that? or any developer that might wanna pick up the glove?
I'm sure it will help few others but me..
Thanks ahead!
My phone (Lyf Water 10) turn off automatically whenever I switch on 4G data connection. When 3G or 2G or wifi are ON, it does not switch off. I don't know why this is happening. If battery is poor, then why doesn't phone switch off on 3G, 2G or even wifi? If anyone can help that would be great.
same problem is here.can u silve the problem
