Is there a way to disable 3G? I don't use it and I know it used a lot of battery.
yes use advancedconfig
go to more settings to to comm manager and add the toggle to that
Alternatively, if you have the band tab enable in start>settings>phone>band, you can just choose "GSM" instead of "Auto" on the first drop-down list.

This works fine on my Fuze, but I would like to have the toggle in Comm Manager.
HOWEVER, when I use AdvancedConfig, the toggle shows up, but it (along with Data connection) is greyed out. Could anyone help? Thanks.
People should also note that setting it to 3G only ALSO saves a lot of battery. Not as much as 2G only, but it is definitely better than 2G+3G because only 1 radio is running instead of 2.
If your area is well covered with 3G and you use data a decent amount, I would recommend trying 3G only.
Disable all T-Mobile Dataplan radio activity?
I use my GSM phone with wifi only - I have no data plan.
Still, my phone looks for 2g and 3g connections when network activity happens and there is no Wifi connection.
Can I disable this behavior? Is there a way to disable both 2G and 3G, all cellular data activity - but still allow cellular phone activity so I can get calls in and out?
I have a 1.5 Cupcake-rooted-rom from haykuro (good stuff, BTW) ...
thanks,

Most chefs cook the option into the Com Manager. Check in there.
Thanks for the help
Disabled 3G by pressing the green phone button>Menu>Alternative...>Band (scroll down) and then select GSM rather than automatic!
Thanks for the help!
Just delete the connection settings from Start>Settings>Connections>Connections>Manage Existing Connections
No way for it to connect without settings
Is there a registry entry to be edited in order to toggle 3G in Mobile 6.1 that anyone knows about? Wife has a Pantech Duo that refuses to work well in 3G areas. I've read all the problems that this phone tends to have in 3G. Thanks.
See the cab below. Got this from Modaco. The application interrogates the registry to list the connections, then toggles the 'enabled' value on the connection between 1 and 0.
If it is set to 0, the device does not try to connect it. You can switch back when in a 3G area.
Does anybody know how to disable data roaming on the touch pro 2.
Mybe you should give a try to NoData.
It allows you to anable / disable your data connections.-
Anyone know what the options are for the portion in build.prop "# Default network type"?
I'd like to switch it to GSM/UMTS as the default.
And is there a way to stop it from auto switching to global or CDMA when it can not find a GSM/UMTS connection/network?
Or, what would the options be to disable switching or CDMA altogether?

Does anyone know of how i can set a direct activity to change the bubble settings of LTE, 3G and 2G located at Settings > More under Wifi > Mobile Networks ?
I want to be able to press a icon on my desktop that will toggle it from LTE and 3G

not a direct application but Power Toggles allows a direct shortcut to the network selection menu..so it's faster.. Even with root it can't change dirrectly. I had apps/widgets for this on my previous phone with 4.2 but didn't try them on 4.4.
