As the subject states, is there a way to force HSDPA alone on 3G enabled pocket pcs (using Polaris) without it going back to 3G.. a kind of way to keep data request on so that hspda wont go back to standby.
Thanks
I have same problem.
I live in HSPDA supported area, Kaiser gets full H bars etc, but my Kaiser keeps switching between GPRS, 3G and EDGE for some weird reason
Hi Guys,
You can't force your handset to only use HSDPA services. HSDPA will not be enabled until you start a large download or stream services that require higher bandwidth. The BTS (base station covering you) is informed by the controling switch when to give you an HSDPA bearer, this is triggered by your data throughput. If you are not downloading a large file etc then you will not be given an HSDPA channel. This decision is always taken by the RNC (controling switch) and cannot be forced
There are a few reasons why you might switch between 3G/HSDPA/EDGE etc. These are primarily based on RF conditions - if your received signal strength falls below a certain level (decided by the network planners) you will be forced to handover to 2G (generaly a stronger signal if you live on the edge of 3G coverage) Some networks also have load based handover enabled - therefore if you serving BTS is getting highly loaded it will then hand you over to 2G/EDGE and you cannot force this either. You can of cource force you phone to only lock onto the 3G network and ignore 2G, then you will always at least get a 3G bearer but this will not guarantee HSDPA service - this will only be given if you have good enough signal and if you are using enough throughput. Forcing to 3G will of course increase the amount of call drops you have as you will not be able to hop onto another carrier
Sorry guys!!
^^^That's funny, when I was in an HSPA zone with my Fuze the H stayed on all the time... For that reason, I think you must be incorrect. Sitting there doing nothing, transferring data, didn't matter, always showed H when it was available. This happened in Boston, Albany, and NYC... So it's surely not a fluke based on the area. My data usage at the end of the month wasn't ridiculous either, so it wasn't constantly sucking data for any reason.
bumps.. i would like help on this too coz i use my phone for tethering and it always lags coz when the connection stays idle it switches to 3G instead of remaining on HSPDA..
Im not sure if this wud do but u cud try .. open up dialer n dial *#*#4636*#*# -> Phone information scroll down and there's selection of network type .. try WCDMA only?

it is on that by default
Is possible to change modem software?

am i correct to say that based on your explanation, switching from 3G to HSDPA is cell station controlled and not controllable via our handphone?
Can anyone tell me how to do the simultaneous voice and data? I remember my Hermer used to let me do that. Any solution?
Don't know - it just does! However only a 3G network will support this, so make sure that you have the H or 3G symbol at the top. If you are on 2G, the data connection will terminate whilst on a call.
I think that some phones had two radios..one for voice and one for data..I'm guessing the TP doesn't have this
is there some way how to set the HTC PRO to the situation that the phone has priority from the EDGE?? something like that, when i am in data connection and there was call comming, that the data connection will close and i can take the call??
Now i am unreachable when data conncection
A 2G network is NOT capable of both telephony and data at the same time - it has nothing to do with the phone. As to what takes priority - i am not sure, but if you have an active data connection, i guess the network sees this as the phone being "engaged". THis is a limitation of the network and not the phone. I use my phone in 2G mode with the data connection always open - to allow email push. When i get a phonecall, the data is dropped by the network to enable the call. You need to ask your network provider.
3G can carry both data and telephony at the same time and doesnt need 2 radios. The touch pro supports this.
Hi All,
How do I make it so that my phone will not try and connect to the internet via 3G (the signal icon on the status bar has 3G written on it). Whenever my phone switches to 3G, internet doesnt work. this has been a problem for me here in Aus on multiple phones. While the icon says H, internet works awesome but the second it switches to 3G internet stops working until it switches back to H. It wouldnt be too bad, if it wasnt for the fact that the bloody thing switches back and forth every 5 seconds if Im in a good reception area, which is almost all the time.
Are you rooted/custom ROM? It sounds like it could be a poorly performing radio. Search for the radio/ril thread. You might find some answers there. You can switch your phone to 2G or 3G networks only, but the 3G option also includes H. So even if you left out the 2G you'd still suffer the same issues.
Hi..i owned a Lumia, but a bit frustrated when network keep switching between 3G and 2G.
i just want to stay only in 3G network..
have anyone test the field test by dialling "##3282"?
in there we can change 3G only.
But i didnt know it worked or not..
so far it doesnt change to 2G..
I too used the same test by dialing ##3282. In addition you have to toggle the ENS to OFF position (don't reboot).
When you choose 3G only. It exactly what it means, 3G only, not 4G (LTE) and NOT 2G either. So it will only connect to 3G and hence you are not getting 2G signal.
I wish there was a speed limit setting so we could avoid LTE rather than pure 3G only. Or choose 3G+2G together.
Hello,
I know there is a thread for this in Galaxy Note section, but i feel i need to share this for OPO community.
I'm using OPO v33 rom. I live in Mumbai and have a 3G vodafone postpaid corporate connection.
Recently i have been to my native mysore on few occasions, and everytime i have seen the 3G data getting disabled even when the data connection settings are enable on roaming.
I never faced this issue on my nokia lumia 920 which perfectly latched onto roaming and 3G data was available.
On roaming, with OPO, the data gets disabled and i dont get a specific "E" or "H" sign with + noticafion.
I only have the signal bars with small R icon on top of the bar.
Please let me know if there is a workaround for this.
I have also seen this issue on v25 rom aswell.
Note: i have tried setting connectivity to automatic in mobile networks.. and also tried to select the specific Vodafone network. both didnt solve this issue.
Another interesting thing while on roaming: my nokia 920 recognised 2 networks for vodafone.. one with 2G, 3G and another with only 2G. and i could select the first one .. and 3G was getting enabled without any issues.
i think that E and H as well as H+ is only something you can geti n your own country. When roaming, it's always the default for that service prodiver in the country that you will get.
