[Q] Rom with autoswitch between 3g and 2g

Hey all,
in the latest rom for the nexus S, I've been missing the option for the phone to autoswitch from 3g to 2g, since I'm using a Umts inly operator here in Italy(tre), I need that feature to keep my phone in working conditions when there is no 3g signal. I was wondering if there's any app that can do that or a 2.3.4 rom that has that option. So far I've tried the last Cm, oxygen and superAosp but with no luck.
thanks!

3G/HSDPA Problem?

Got a Nexus S last week, tried ICS which is great but loved Oxygen on my Desire so thought I'd give it a try.
Recently noticed that when I have a 3G connection I have to turn the screen of to switch it to HSDPA.
Is this a common problem or should the 3G be switching to HSDPA automatically even when the screen is on?
Using Oxygen 2.3.1 as 2.3.2 had annoying BLN problems.

what is HSDPA BTW ? and what's the difference between it and 3G ?
HSDPA = High Speed Download Packet Access (I know)

[Q] Team EOS (nightly) ICS LTE radio strength problem

Been running build #44 for about a week now and it is AWESOME. I've been running over WiFi at home and came to my office this week. It was the first test of connecting to LTE and I seem to have an issue. Under stock Honeycomb, I had very strong bars and constant 4G connectivity. With this ROM, I get low signal strength and it bounces between 3G and 4G.
Just installed Team EOS 1.0.0 - same deal (although Iexpected this since nothing in change logs)
Anyone else experiencing this?

[Q] radio signal dropouts

I'm experiencing radio dropouts quite frequently. My signal will go from almost full strength to lost signal, and then a few minutes later the signal will return again.
This does not seem to be ROM dependent, as have used several to see if the situation improves, which it does not. Currently using Reaper 3.
I'm on Vodafone UK and was wandering if anyone else has come accross the same issue, or alternatively if you are on Vodafone UK and don't have the issue, then which radio are you using ?
Many thanks

Same in Slovakia with O2 network. Sometimes H to 3g to E to dropout and signal returns after while.
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda app-developers app

under settings switch to 2g only, i suppose ur area has but weak 3g signal.
at home i switch to only 2g as my area has but weak 3g, making my signal on and off.

[Q] Nexus S - Very poor reception

Hello,
I bought a refurbished Nexus S from an online retailer in my country. As soon as I got it, I flashed CM10.1 on it and got it up and running but I immediately realised that the signal strength on the phone was WEAK! I only got 1-2 bars in my living room and sometimes no signal strength at all. However, as soon as I go out to my apartment's balcony, everything is back to full signal strength. The phone just keeps on dropping reception.
I looked into it and found that my phone had the M200KRKC1 radio so I said to my self, hey, lets flash it with one of the newer radios and it should be fine, right? WRONG! I'm running one of the newer KF radios and it's still the same.
Summary:
Initial radio: M200KRKC1
Current radio: Newer KF radio.
Situation: The same as before, weak reception.
Any help with this would be highly appreciated because this is driving me insane and I have to resort to an old Nokia phone of mine till then.
Thanks and regards.

You've got the Korean M200 (sojuk) version. According to Google official image website https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#sojuk , M200KRKC1 is already the latest radio. Could it be incompatible radio (hardware) issue?

Thanks for your response. I am not sure if its hardware but the reception was the same with the other radio too. I'm stumped

South Korean carriers are CDMA2000 and UMTS based (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code#K). I think M200 radio support CDMA2000 and HSPA, not sure about GSM support level, which is used in Pakistan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Network_Code#P).
This is based on info in wiki, which may not be up-to-date or accurate.
Just my 2 cents.
