Is the reason I have no cellular data because this phone does not support cellular data in 3g only voice? The HTC FAQs seem to be suggesting this?

thanks for that
I discovered that although the country and carrier come automatically from the sim it is necessary to tap the confirmation in network setup:

Can we have a modded app that can switch between connection modes of the network (i.e 2G & 3G) and most importantly without disconnecting the ongoing connection.
when we are connected to a network and if we try to change it to any other mode then it asks to disconnect the ongoing connection.This requires a solution.
Thank you .
That's impossible

well isn't there any chances of it..
it would be really very helpful 2 all i think....
hey frnds i also need it
thanks in advance....
Neither do I believe its possible. Anyways, why do you need it. I know its not good it gets disconnected, but...im curious
And, its the Network, not the phone's fault!

by this way you can use the 2G internet pack as 3G internet pack.which is i think is very gr8.
it is possible in other handsets like the Symbian ones. so can't android support it?

Set the network to "wcdma only" you'll be able to use 2G data as 3G

In 3G mode it never connects as it's a 2G plan.
the thing is by connecting it in 2G mode and after connection we can change the network to 3G.
possible on motorola charm. i've tested it
possible in phones frm almost all the manufacturers other than samsung.. dunno why.
Hi guys, I have problem with my network connection also my 3g does not work anymore, I was playing with my phone with some secret codes like a ##72786# on my epic 4g touch sprint phone flashed to metro pcs and now I have no 3G service. In the setting menu under network status say Sprint. How can I get my 3g back?. The mobile net. 3G is on and the wifi is off. I need to change the network to metro pcs in the status setting and how can do that? Thanks for your help and sorry for my bad English.
Running ICS OS.
Can you re register your network by scanning network operators? If not you will need to Google APN settings for your network.

Does anyone know if it is possible to get a "WCDMA/LTE Only" mode on the Nexus 5?
I basically want to stop the phone dropping to 2G. Recently LTE has been made available here and before that I used "WCDMA only" and it worked fine but that is no longer a viable option since I want to use LTE.
Thanks in advance
Can't you just switch off 2g dialing 3646?

I do, but I can use 3G to do this. I mean I don't want it to drop to EDGE.
The reason is, in Ireland the network provider Three does not have a 2G network and roams to Vodafone when it 3G isn't available. It then will not automatically change back to 3G. You need to manually select the Three network again.
you have no option then. you have either lte only, which gets you data and no phone calls, or you have lte/gsm. on gsm/lte, itll switch to whatever is your best signal.
Wouldn't it be easier to choose the operator manually?

That's what I thought. I was just hoping there was some custom software of some sort that would solve my problem.

It still jumps to vodafone when there is poor signal, even when manually selected. If there was a way of forcing it to stay with one operator or disable roaming completely, then that would do but there doesn't seem to be an option.

Are you sure there's no "national roaming" setting?. I really thought there was.

Not on the Nexus 5, as far as I'm aware. I think it just disables data anyway. I need to be able to disable roaming completely or restrict to WCDMA and LTE.

When looking in SlimKat (admittedly not stock), it is @fergietime suggests, national data roaming and would still allow the phone to roam to another operator when there was no signal on the existing operator - just with no data. However, I am not seeing a problem with that. It only roams nationally when there is 0 signal for voice on your operator?

Yes, but it happens me quite often due to certain places that I pass through. My operator does not have a 2G network at all so roams once it drops below 3G. The main problem is, I need to manually search for networks and select my network to get it back to 3G/4G. It's a network issue that Three Ireland refuse to acknowledge. It has been happening for 4 years at least. I am just looking for a workaround.

I see.
I am also on Three (UK though) so also have no 2G coverage. and yes, when it fails over to 2G (Orange in UK) it is a pain to get it back.

It's a very frustrating issue. It actually NEVER jumps back to Three and it changes to Vodafone nearly every time I go inside a Tesco or somewhere like that. I then have to search and wait for it to find networks so I can select Three. The only time it seems to work correctly is when using a device bought from Three or a Three rom, which obviously for the Nexus 5 doesn't exist. And even then people complain about it so it's a bit hit and miss.
Does anyone know if it is possible to add a "WCDMA/LTE Only" mode into a rom?
Hi, I recently changed service provider and upgraded to a nexus 5.
Sadly i have a problem with my data connection. I can only use data if i have LTE covarage not 3g. So basicly LTE works but not 3g.
I have moved my simcard to another phone and then it works, I have also tried another simcard in my phone and that works to...
My service provider is giving me a hard time claiming that it is a hardware fault but i have a hard time believing them since the phone works perfectly when i borrow other simcards.
So i reach out to you to get some more info so that i can convince the service provider to put a technician on the problem and look if there is something wrong on there side.
Is it possible they are right and there is a hardware issue with my phone even though it works with anoter simcard? Any tips on what i can try to fix this problem?
if it works with another sim card in your phone, then its not hardware or software. itll be related to how your provider set up your account.
Go into your device's hidden service menu and check to see if you have LTE only enabled for preferred network.

Set your LTE/GSM to get both LTE and 3G Data.

well, if it was set to lte only, he wouldnt be able to make phonecalls as well. he said nothing about not being able to make phonecalls.

OP never mentioned that he couldn't make phone calls, only data only works while on LTE. Worth a shot to try it out, and if it's set to LTE/GSM already it might be hardware related.

truth, maybe he never tried calling.
Probably APN. If you're on Sprint the APN bearer has to be set for EHRPD instead of LTE I think.

You'll have to make sure the provider supports data within their system compatible with your hardware, and that you have the correct APN to ensure data works correctly. Once that is in place and your phone is setup to hotspot, as you do in the US, should be a breeze.
However, doesn't the Asia area use different bands than the US?

i can use data with LTE. i set APN also. but i cant use hotspot.
it says "hotspot error" when i turn hotspot on.
by the way, i used True mobile in Thailand, and KT in Korea with my phone.
it worked very well including LTE, but hotspot error.
rooted?
have you tried the hotspot hack?

Nope, You`ll either need to remove/replace files or run a custom rom.
