if u use wcdma setting ur device will search for available 3g network. u better call 121 and ask customer care executive about 3g services in ur town. if they confirm that 3g is available in ur area than complain about 3g not working ur device they will guide u for making correct settings.
Go to Settings -> Wireless & Mobile networks -> Touch on Mobile Networks.
Click on Access Point Names:
If you already have settings click on TATA DOCOMO INTERNET.
If not you can send SMS “INTERNET” to 52270 and save them default settings.
If you are not getting Settings for some reason.
Follow the steps:
in the Settings page click menu > NEW APN.
Enter the details as below:
Name : TATA DOCOMO INTERNET
APN: TATA.DOCOMO.INTERNET
Proxy:
Port:
User name:
Password:
Server:
MMSC:
MMS Proxy:
MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 405
MNC: 034
Authentication type:
Apn Type: default.
See if the above works

I had faced the same problem before! All networks work only on gsm mode by default! And 3g works fine on the same mode.. Its just that you need to get the right settings from your network provider and get 3g activated at your provider end!

just if u knew....
before some dayz back docomo gives us access to its 3g network without subscribing to its 3g plan,which is giving speed abot 15-20 kbps...
but frm past 10 to 15 dayz its not giving us its 3g network without recharging with its 3g plann....
do u recharged with its 3g plan??
I faced the same problem while I was using airtel. I sent them an SMS requesting for the 3g settings after which it was solved... you should probably send an SMS asking for the settings...
@vikas145, Is it that you bought your mobile just now and configuring the settings? If so, try to do a factory reset first and then reboot. 3G will work perfectly.
Try selecting manually

guys 3g is still not working on my SGR plz help out...... on selecting wcdma in network settings there's no network on my phone......so what to do with it
You have to activate 3g pack ,then only H or 3G symbol will appear.
Otherwise ,you will get edge network .
I am also using tata docomo and same thing had happened to me.
Tata docomo cancelled giving 3g network on 2g pack activation from january this year.
For testing you can activate Rs.9 (10MB) 3g pack.make sure that you are in 3g area.

If u activate 3g pack,then the network automatically switches to 3g or H network from edge(E).network selection should be auto mode(WCDMA/GSM).

I have a friend with this phone....
He has 3G activated on his SIM Card but he wants to use 2G (EDGE / GPRS) instead....
Is there anyway he can switch between 2G and 3G?

Dude... tell your friend to explore the phone's settings...
And he'll eventually find what he needs at /settings/wifi and networks/mobile networks

Exactly !!
Use only 2g works. The 3G here is very expensive so I use only 2g. But when I reboot it automatic goes to 2g. What should I do?
Sent from my GT-S5670 using Tapatalk
switch 2g ang 3g
can change between 2g and 3g
USE code in dialer
*#2263#
Select wcdma for 3g and then select all
or for 2g use gsm >> all
Automatic>>>>>automatic

By Default GSM/WCDMA (Auto mode) is selected.
GSM = 2G
WCDMA = 3G
Select the one you want to use.

When you reboot your phone, it goes to 2g.. okay... and 3g is expensive so you use only 2g.
What is the question ?
I guess he wants to disable automatic "data transfer mode" enabling.
if you want to do that

How to Fix AT&T Data Throttle Your 4G - Your Data Usage is Among The Top 5% Of Users
There is a nice little APN fix. Just change the APN to Phone and force your phone to use HSPA in your phone's settings. I have instructions with a screenshot...
http://www.traemcneely.com/2011/12/...rottle-4g-data-anti-throttling-trick-for-att/
How do you perform the first step on the skyrocket?
1. Go to Settings > Wireless and Network > Mobile Networks > Click Network Mode and force your phone to use GSM/HSPA (Auto mode).
I don't see "network mode".
Click Access Point Name..
I am now getting 512k vs 150k.

Found another trick.
I named the access point the same ATT pta, then I put Phone under the APN setting.
Put your phone into GSM/HSPA (auto mode) let it connect to the network,
then go back and put it as HSPA only.....I'm getting 1-2g+ bypassing the throttle using HSPA+ works like a charm.

i did all when i click on Mobile networks i see access point names and network operators and use packet data. When i click on network operators is says Default setup doesnt allow me to do anything. Please help
Same here. Don't see 'network.mode' selection. Please help. Does it have to be rooted?

I am still not sure where/how to pick "GSM/HSPA (Auto mode)" on stock rom. Thats not an option.
What I have are:
WCDMA preferred - The GSM phone is capable of using both 2G and 3G data communication and when signal strength is low 3G is favored more.
GSM only - The GSM phone is capable of using only 2G data communication. When the 2G signal is too low you get nothing at all.
WCDMA only - The GSM phone is capable of using only 3G data communication. When the 3G signal is too low you get nothing at all.
GSM auto (PRL) - The GSM phone is capable of using both 2G and 3G data communication and when signal strength is low 2G is favored more. This one is a bit confusing to me since PRL is associated mostly with CDMA technology and not GSM technology.
CDMA auto (PRL) - The CDMA phone is capable of using both 2G and 3G data communication and when signal strength is low 2G is favored more.
CDMA only - The CDMA phone is capable of using only 2G data communication. When the 2G signal is too low you get nothing at all.
EvDo only - The CDMA phone is capable of using only 3G data communication. When the 3G signal is too low you get nothing at all.
GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) - Some phones are equipped with both GSM and CDMA capabilities. This setting appears to just have the phone attempt to stay connected to the data communication type that works the best. (Maybe the Samsung Galaxy S will take advantage of this???)
Unknown - If none of the above fit or the phone is acting weird as far as connecting to the carrier, you will see your preferred network type is set to this
(Cut n paste from another thread, dont know if these are applicable to Skyrocket/LTE)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342111
Thanks for the pointer to the thread but my whole point is that I dont see those options and for some reason my network mode changes dont stick.
So if I disable packet network, switch the APN, change the network mode and then enable the network again, I see that it has gone back to GSM?WCDMA/LTE auto mode again.
So for some reason my network mode changes dont stick. Also, I am on stock rom, could that be the reason!

Custom ROMS give you the options you are looking for.
I am confused ! If the stock radio is *locked* to use LTE if available, why are some people reporting to lock onto HSPA+ network with stock ROM. Are they exploiting some bug?
I have tried various things but I cant switch my radio to anything except GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto mode. It seems to come back to that mode.
Do I need a reboot after changing the mode.
I am using *#*4636#*#* to switch the mode.

Hello all.
I bought a Galaxy Core from the Middle East(2 Sim cards) and tried to use it in America through Strait Talk. The phone is working fine and the only problem I have that I can not get 3G just E (EDGE) which is so slow. I put my Sim Card in a Galaxy S III to make sure that the Carrier provides 3G. As soon as I put the Sim Card in Galaxy S III, I immediately got H +. But when I put it back in my Galaxy Core I got E.
My area covers 3G
APN setting is according to Straight Talk instructions
Any idea why ?
I would highly appreciate your answer and help!!
Check network mode - maybe it is set to use only 2G. You can find it under Settings -> More settings -> Mobile Data

Mode is already set to GSM/WCDMA (Auto Mode). I can use this option and GSM Only option. I can not use WCDMA Only option. If I chose WCDMA Only, I will loose the the whole mobile service. Thanks a lot for your help and time.

Look You can't use 3G on both SIM at the same time. So choose WCDMA only on the SIM you want to use 3G and use WCDMA/GSM on other SIM and this might not be allowing you to choose "WCDMA only" so better check 2nd SIM connection type.
and yup it is common that network disconnects while change the mode of connection. It will be stable after your option is set.

In fact I am using only one Sim Card. I chose WCDMA Only and restarted the phone. I lost the service again. Thank you Bro.
I too have an issue with my Samsung Galaxy Core prime sm-g360t, my 3g is not working n I've tried LTE/Wcdma/gsm, buh it's still not working
actually ..our galaxy core now became as trash ...even i faced the same problem but there was no fix except an workaround ...the thing is lots of companies has put many features in their "new" SIMs and galaxy core is unable to process those(hardware problem) but if you use an old sim like 2-3 yrs old it will work for you ...after many many googling i had nothing in my hands but solved it by using my old sim ....just take someone's which is old and see if it helps ....
----by an same problem facer
I am using cynogenmod 13 latest build all things working perfectly but I'm unable to change connection type to 3G or LTE if selected 2G I have to go to flight mode and then I can change the connection type to LTE only still can't change it to 3G. When it's selected LTE as default even that time also the data connection work still as 2G sign showing as E even if I select LTE never get the H/H sign on my service provider Vodafone India please help me... and sorry for my bad english.
I had a similar problem with CM 12.1, but I solved it changing the APN. My phone has 2 APN available, I just selected the one it wasn't using and I got 4G and 3G again after some minutes.
Hope it helps.

Try changing the APN as Secuential said. For Vodafone India, I think it says 'www'.
If that doesn't work, try manually changing it.
Enter *#*#4636#*#* in your dialer.
In the 'Testing' window that appears, go to Phone Information.
Scroll down to Set preferred network type: (The default is LTE/GSM auto (PRL))
Change it to WCDMA only.
It should show H sign after a while.
Good luck.
(Though, keeping WCDMA only can increase battery usage. Change it to 'WCDMA preferred' later)
