I am looking for some way to easily switch networks from GSM only to LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto. Either by a widget, or automatically when I am connected to wifi. The cell coverage of LTE/3G is really poor where I live, and the phone keeps trying to connect to these, and I experience some dropped calls due to it. All solutions I have found require xposed. My phone is rooted running stock ROM. Any solutions?

Good day everyone. I have been using my samsung vibrant for weeks now with no problem. i noticed today that i couldnt connect to the internet through my stock browser. so also apps like the xda app and facebook book app will not connect to the internet, while my internet indicator is showing connected (both 2g and 3g).It keeps displaying ""nodes for the connection is not available" on the browser. However, at the same time i have able to connecting and use other apps like ebuddy, yahoomail e.t.c. My vibrant is unlocked and purchased from the US but presently using it in nigeria. My APN settings is still the same way since i started using it and my service provider, MTN, says all is well with my connection. This has occurred three times today... each time i had to switch off and back on, or turn on and off the flight mode for it to work sometimes.
Please, any help on how to resolve this?
Apparently our phones lose data connection when they switch from 2g to 3g or vice versa. To prevent it from happening at all go to settings -> wireless and network -> mobile network -> network mode -> and set it to gsm only to lock it on 2g OR wcdma only to lock it on 3g.
Thanks reform. I have tried choosing only 2g and even tried choosing only 3g...but the problem still persist. I had to turn my phone off and On severally for me to have my internet network back now. Is there any other way I can resolve this?

Hello everyone. Please can someone help me with this problem? I have tried everything possible but the phone kept cutting off my internet connection, but only for my browser, Facebook and xda app. Each time it displays 'node not available for this request' it actually deducted from my data plan but not connecting me. Any help please?

Hi I recently went to bangladesh for a holiday. I noticed that the apps can't connect to the internet. Apart from the internet apps e.g. opera, dolphin web browser these can connect to the internet. I had no issue with this when I was in the uk. I was wondering if it could be because since there is no 3g network in bangladesh my phone is using 2g network connection - edge connection. Could it be because of that? Also when I was in the UK my phone use to have HSDPA connection and all the apps work when it is connected via wifi.
Hmm strange issue.. Are you using stock SE rom? Are you sure that there is no 3g connection or maybe you disabled it?
I think its your.carrier, theres no way to prove it but who knows

If your phone is on roam, it won't connect unless you go into data settings and allow it to.
I have this problem to, and i have 3g connection but apps cant connect to the internet.
Enable internet while roaming. If problem persists then the carrier dosent support it.
A few days ago I started experiencing this issue my phone. No more edge connection for some reason. I can connect to HSPA fine... but when is time to connect to any EDGE connection it does switch initially and I see that it tries to send data over EDGE but it does not receive anything. After a while it disconnects and when I go to phone properties I only see gprs mode. No active connection and no ip address. I tried flashing anther Rom and the same result. Can't find any information on the web specific to my issue. I think it could be either a bad 2g antenna or maybe the sim ....any of you experienced this problem?

So lately what has been happening when I disconnect my phone from wifi it will not automatically connect to Sprints data network. It says its still connected to 1xRTT (according to SignalCheck Pro) however it then has a pop up saying my phone cannot connect to the mobile data network and says MIP 180 or something along those lines, and I can't connect to Sprints data until i reboot. The 3G symbol will not show up until i reboot and can't connect to data. Im running stock touchwiz not rooted, latest update. This happens pretty much everywhere I go. Any help?
I've come from ATT and have never had an issie of this sort before using GSM phones. Although it could just be because this phones still new?
ok so i got a screen shot of it.
Forget that im roaming and using usb 3.0, that was after the fact it kept telling me this message. I generally have great service where I am, could be cell tower upgrades.
That error code means you need to update your data profile. After you reboot, go into settings and try updating your profile...if it continues contact Sprint.

Had same problem recently and it was due to several tower problems in my area.
I have a new gear s on Verizon and have found the battery life very variable for lack of a better description. It appears the Verizon version does not display the same info in the moments bar as the Samsung manual shows or as I have seen on other carriers versions. I ask because my battery life in auto connect verses always off is a major difference even when connected to the phone via Bluetooth. It almost appears the 3G/4G is always on in the auto setting. worse case connected to the phone "note 4" via Bluetooth and network in auto I was getting 7 hours from 100% to 15% battery. If I turn the network off in the same situation I got over 40 hours and still had 25% battery left. Does anyone know if the Verizon version actually turns the network on/off in auto mode? Since they don't display this information in the moments bar you don't know if you are on, off or remotely connected. The 3G by the signal strength bar graph is always on whether you are on or in auto mode. Thanks for any help you might have.
I have the Verizon version also. When I'm by my phone Bluetooth automatically turns on and 3g turns off and vice versa. I had problems with it not automatically switching 3g off so I ran clean master from the Samsung store(made for Samsung phones) and ever since then it always works with auto connect

Thank you for your response. I tried your suggestion but can see no immediate difference. If I may ask how do you know 3G/4G is turning on and off? On my watch the Bluetooth symbol in the moments bar will change either having the additional white triangles on each side when connected. The 3G/4G and signal strength bar graph is always there in the on or the auto. Only off will make them disappear. Thanks.

The 3g disappears and turns off the cell radio then connects to my phone Bluetooth. Double check your settings under connections, then mobile networks, make sure gear network is set to auto switch

Thank you once again for the information. I pretty sure mine is not working as it should. I have the 3G and signal strength bar graph if the mobile network is on or in auto phone connected Bluetooth and inches away. You need something to know if its on or off as you stated 3G there or off. The weird thing is with the network in auto and Bluetooth connected I put the phone in airplane mode then tried making a call from the watch. It would not do it. The 3G was there telling me the network is on but not making phone calls. I tried sending a text to the watch phone number with the network off and as expected it didn't come through even connected to the phone via Bluetooth. If the network is in auto and connected to phone via Bluetooth the text to watch phone number will come through. I'm guessing to get calls or texts to the watch phone number the network must be on. I'm curious if yours behaves as mine does. I have had the note 4 since January and its getting pretty cluttered with stuff plus add the lollypop update to the mix. I have tried a hard rest on the watch and think I'm going to do the same to the phone to clean house and try from scratch. Thanks again.
