Hello! Sorry for my bad English.
How can I switch to only 3G on my N8000? I mean: no HSDPA, only 3G.
Any suggestions?

It will be under network settings
No, there're only options to switch 2G and WCDMA (3g, hspa, hsdpa together)
You can't...

I'm using my Orbit 2 in the US on ATT and can't seem to get full 3G. I can get HSDPA, but not UMTS.
I'm using the original 1.58.25.14 radio and Bepe's .65 WWE Premium.
Is anyone else in the US having this problem?
Will it change by upgrading my radio to 1.64.08.21???
Thanks

HSDPA is 3g

When you are in an area with UMTS then 3G will be displayed, when you start transfering data H will be displayed.

LOL - I just got a pm from someone...
I was under the impression that UMTS was faster than HSDPA...
thanks...
nevermind....

yes, i know HSDPA is 3g, that's why I'm referred to UMTS...

The 3G (and HSDPA) work on the UMTS network... RT(F)W: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMTS
Also, be happy you only get the 'H' icon... that mean you're on the 3G network and HSDPA is available, and that means more download speed than the standard 3G networks speed.
H and not 3G
I thought I had a problem as well.
Actually I get "H" icon all the time in Cincinnati. It actually is 3.5G, was just in Florida, Orlando area and I then got the 3G icon.
The H is alot faster for downloads for sure!!
These are the times when I hope some ppl are just trolling on the forum...
Gentlemen,
I live in Chile and use the 3G network, cell phone in the U.S. and buy it when I choose the network I can only choose to 4G and 2G know how to enable 3G?

So you don't want 4g?

Because in Chile, while not using the 4G.
Currently this only works on 3G
The long and short of it: The G2X has a bug in the stock ROM that does NOT display 3G at all. So when it's showing 4G, its actually running either 3G or 4G. There is no icon for 3G at all.
I could be wrong and 3G could be tied to the 2G icon, but I've seen 3G speeds far more often when the phone is displaying 4G than I have when its displaying 2G. No one has been able to verify this for me. Obviously if chile doesn't have a 4G Market there is no way to "force" 4G speeds.

On the stock G2x I do not believe you will ever see the 3G symbol. Tmobile 4G signal is just a very fast 3G. They call it 4G. You will only see 2G or 4G on the taskbar.

In network mode, there is only GSM and WCDMA.
The only that works is GMS.
when I use the data plan I get the icon 2G.
I think that actually is 2G, as the navigation goes very slow.
I never appeared on 4G, you can change the ROM?
thanks
The phone displays 3g as 4g. Why I don't know, maybe T-Mobile wanted everyone to think they were getting 4g all over the place when actually they weren't, but it DOES support 3g. Your phone will SAY it's running 4g, but it probably won't be. Run a speed test if you want to see for yourself.

So, let me see if I am reading this correctly. When in Chile, you can only connect to GSM which makes sense. So you never see the 4G symbol? You only see the 2G symbol?
If this is the case, have you done a speedtest to see what kind of data speeds you are really getting?

Only works on 2G Chile.
The network operator ENTEL works with 1900, some pages say that the cell blocks this signal with other operators.
When I enter somewhere to watch tv online, I get that I need a 3G or WIFI connection
Hey guys, got a question: are you running wcdma preferred or do you use gsm only? The funny thing is that with gsm only I got all 5 bars, and with wcdma preferred it is 2/5. Could someone explain this issue and the differences between these 2 to me?

Hello everyone.
I have a question since I've got my s6. Can you force the phone to only connect to LTE or 3G network only? Because in the network option: the only preferences available are:
-4G/3G/2G
-3G/2G
-3G Only
-2G Only
So what I want is an option like 4G/3G because I'm forced to go to the settings every time I want to have 4G because my phone always connect to 2G, so when I am in a poor signal area, I have to put 3G Only.
I don't want a toggle. I just want to change the network preferences. My phone run XtreSoLite and Xposed is installed.
Thanks guys

OH that's strange, I'm on Tyrannus rom 28.1 and have the option for lte only. Maybe just the rom or your network provider.

Oh I'm sorry you didn't understand.
I don't want LTE Only. I want a network preference that is "3G and LTE". Not just 3G only or 4G/LTE only.
Thanks

Ah right, tbf I don't think I've seen this option on any phone I've owned.
Reason being if you go into a 2g area and you only have 3g/4g then your phone will not pick up a signal

I agree with that but in my city. All the areas are at least cover by 3G connection so I can afford it.
It's juste that my S6 always connect to 2G while they are 3G connection, because when I select "3G only", it works.
My post is there just to ask if anyone know about a tweak that can select only 3G and 4G.
Thanks guys
I'm looking for a way to lock 3G on my phone since I only have this options, any ideas?

Choose WCDMA only. This is a 3G only option too.

Thanks, choosing WCDMA locks it into 4G. I don't know if the phone doesn't show the 3G signal Icon on top
If u are in USA it shows 4G instead of 3G or H+. If u have LTE then it shows 4Glte. It's just the icons.
