I have a D2G Verizon rooted and stock ROM. The problem is I am using this phone in middle east with GSM and it never connects to 3G network. I usually get Edge only which is slow, any idea why is this happening?

3g works fine here in Jamaica. Have you checked your network settings to ensure that the phone isn't in gsm-only mode? Try setting it to "Global" or "UMTS", reboot your device and then you should be fine.
When I use UMPS or Global the internet doesn't work at all!

if you have ever been in the service menu and selected the only available option calle "US BAND", you've essentially killed the 2100 band. The only way to 'resurrect' it is ether good knowledge with RadioComm or simply reflash SBF. And never go to service menu and select "US BAND" there...
You may have to enter in apn settings for your carrier to get it to work. Here in japan I had to add the apn's and edit a file in system/etc/ppp with the user name and password to get data working on my wife's d2g.

Are you selecting 2G networks only? If so, that will change it.
It also changes to GSM Only if Wifi Calling is enabled and connected.
no im not, all that changes on its own i just notice it only happens when i have my wifi on. its kind of a pain to have to keep changing it i never had that problem with any other phone
are you using the sim card that had been provided with g2x or from your previous phone? ive had issues where my apns had been disappearing after flashing custom rom, activated new sim today, works great just fyi
I'm having the same problem. I'm using simple mobile apn settings but, whenever i try to use my data. It changes back to the t-mo apn settings
Mobile network switching is normal behavior. If the Edge signal is stronger than the 3G signal the phone will switch to whichever signal is strongest. If you want 3/4G only then download '3G Only' app from the Android Market.
After flashing CM7, I've been having trouble with my data network. I have bars, I can make calls and text, but I've never seen a 2g or 3g symbol in my status bar. Sending or receiving MMS is impossible. I've seen snippets of similar problems in some other threads, where they couldn't use their data plan at all. Baseband switcher doesn't work when I select any of the USA Tmobile basebands.
Has anyone had similar problems? Maybe even a solution?
Other info:
Yes, data over mobile network is enabled.
I flashed UK Froyo Retail 2.2.2, and applied CM7. I'll flash Nordic later and reply.
I do not have a data plan, but an unlimited texting plan, so I should be able to send MMS.
Update:
---------------------------------------------------------
Flashed Nordic SBF, and data initially worked fine when I applied CM7. However, after some reboots, restoring some apps, I don't know when exactly but I lost it. Just bars again.
Tried applying some USA T-mobile basebands, and none of them gave me data.
Start all over dude.

Not true at all. I've been sending picture messages on stock Froyo without any problems at all.

That's what I'm thinking.
Back when CM7 was in beta, I still had this issue, with Nordic as my sbf. I flashed back to stock and whoop-dee-do, I had 3G.
When Quarx released his RC, I thought that my problem would have been fixed already. In my paranoia, I thought that if I had a UK Tmobile sbf, I wouldn't have any problems. I still do though. I'll flash Nordic when I can, and come back with the results.
I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem before.
You need to use the basebandswitcher tool to select a US T-Mobile baseband before you can use the 3G network.
I flashed Nordic, the one in the FAQ. I got data now.
Thanks.
I'mbhaving this same issue, and curious to the problem as well, 3G seems alot slower, its not because I dontbhave service I'm running full bars and network is really slow

I lost data now for some reason. None of the usa basebands work.
Any suggestions?
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
For me, with RC1, often when leaving a WiFi area, data will simply not work unless I completely reboot the phone. *sometimes* switching between 2g and 3g will get it working again.

I live in Austin and I started having that problem starting tuesday Afternoon.l My phone running MIUI 1.6.24 was working fine till then, and then started dropping signal, switching to edge and entering "emergency calls only mode a lot".
I used baseband switcher to switch to a different baseband, but the only way I could access data was with the original MIUI 1.6.24 ROM and even then, only edge.
I tried reflashing the T-MO US SBF as well as the nordic SBF, and I don't get any data any more.
I am going to try to flash CM 7 to see if I still have the problem.
What is the US base kernal for T-Mobile network?

I reloaded stock rom,then upgraded to cm7 again. Network seems to be running smoother for me. Still not the best but nonetheless better

Do you use titanium backup? Maybe it's a setting or app causing this.
I had data when I applied cm7 at first. But I lost it when I began personalizing it.

Ok I have a rooted and unlocked mytouch 4G slide running on Cincinnati bell. I have service but no data connection. Is there anything I can do to get the data connection to work. Would a different radio work?
you need edit some network codes on the sim card. I would just call them and ask, normally the carriers are helpful in resolving the issues.
Are they using the same network as T-Mobile? Also, you may get more help at rootzwiki.
Sent via smoke signal.
Would this just be a case of going into the settings and entering the CB APN settings?
Assuming you have a wifi connection, go into the market place and download an application called tweakker. Yes, two ks. Anyways, just use that and pick Cincinnati Bell along with the correct plan, and you should be ready to go.
Thanks I'll try some of these out

I upgraded to CM10 10.0.0 stable this weekend and have been having no problems. However, I commuted to NY this morning and now I have no cell/internet service when I should have 4G LTE.
I'm using the UCLI3 radio.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Try setting your apn to Lte. Seems like you should have some sort of cell service though.

Thanks so much for your reply!
I've gone into settings...more...mobile networks...network mode and used preferred network mode: LTE/GSM/WCDMA. I also tried updating the network operator to AT&T (and tried automatically choose preferred network) and I still get no service in NY.
Edit: DUH...I figured out where I needed to change the setting and everything appears to be fixed. Thanks!

Had a similar issue yesterday in Houston. Had to select LTE apn, then search for mobile carriers manually, then select choose automatically. Glad you figured it out

Yeah that's right turn it off! Seems they just added a tower in my area but I get crappy signal in my house and on HSDPA+ I get full bars. I thought this phone automatically connects to the "preferred network" but LTE in my house sucks and it keeps connecting to it.

I tried that on multiple radios and can't get it to stick. I also tried disabling it with the optional LTE toggle but even with it off the damn phone keeps connecting to LTE, gives me 1 bar and about a half meg down. I get full bars and almost 10 meg down with H+. Its not just the cm10 ROM because I went completely stock with your very helpful stickies and it does the exact same thing.

Setting, wireless networks, more, and scan network manually. Set AT&T and than you can change network modes. Rogers or bell radios only. I prefer bell 757 radio. My phone is not unlocked and I'm on aokp.
