[Q].. Is there a way to enable 3g only? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hey all, over at verizon you can select cdma only so you don't burn through your data.. Is there a similar way to do that here?
Thanks

With a few roms out here and 3g not the most important feature, do you know of one that has that feature?

Stockmod, Nexusmod, and SkyICS have it. Don't know about the others.

Amaze 4G Radio?

Will the amaze 4g's radio work on the skyrocket? The uclac 4 radio is kind of misleading... but I've heard he amaze 4gs radio is pretty accurate. I've tried the uclac 5 but it wouldn't playback audio

I'm using the nexus mod ROM on ICS.
Never flash a galaxy s ii ROM. However, the Tmobile galaxy s ii and our phone are so similar we can flash stuff between (that blaze 4g flash was meant for the t mobile phone).
I'm not sure about LTE. I'm betting it does work, you'll just have to flash and see. The first boot will take a very long time. I'm running this flash, I can confirm it won't brick. But I would still suggest making a nandroid backup.

[Q] lte

Hey, my lte isn't working... The only APN that works at all is "ATT PHONE" even Odin flash to stock didn't work.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
I'm confused... what is your problem? Not being able to flash stock ROM or not having LTE? Also which ROM are you using?

I'm sorry for the confusion. I have tried all of the ROMs, and none were connecting to lte, I eventually took it to an AT&T store... I had a 3g only plan from my iPhone. :banghead:
They fixed it. Now I get lte speeds.

Use this method if you are on the old updates, if you are on the MF1 update. just pop in the micro sim from AT&T and select GSM. You can edit the APN on the latest update. but no 3G
Everything should work

Curious though. Couldn't I downgrade my phone and then use the dialer code to get into the secret menu and unlock it that way?

I'm thinking that the menu won't show in older versions. Going by the guide IF you're not on the MF1 update would be the best way.

You can always try. I've never tried anything outside of LiquidSmooth v2.7. I just got my S3 a week ago. Haha. I'm sure it should work on any AOSP or AOKP ROM... maybe. :what:

Actually, now that I'm looking back on the guide and in the video... they do it on the stock TouchWiz ROM.
I've seen somewhere, unfortunately I can't recall where, that you can do it on AOSP and AOKP ROMs too. Hmm... maybe ask on the thread of the ROM and someone should be able to tell you.
And make sure your friend knows that if he does get it working that he will have edge data. He may be better off trading his S3 for an AT&T one.

That's the guide I would've linked you to, have you tried using both methods? I've never had to do it, so maybe posting this question in that thread might get you some good responses instead of screenshot advice.
