Does anyone know of how i can set a direct activity to change the bubble settings of LTE, 3G and 2G located at Settings > More under Wifi > Mobile Networks ?
I want to be able to press a icon on my desktop that will toggle it from LTE and 3G

not a direct application but Power Toggles allows a direct shortcut to the network selection menu..so it's faster.. Even with root it can't change dirrectly. I had apps/widgets for this on my previous phone with 4.2 but didn't try them on 4.4.

Does anybody know if it's possible for the TD2 to download weather and stock quotes using the wifi only (if available), and not 3G connection (cause it's very expensive)?
Thanks
Its set up to automatically use WiFi when available. WiFi will always override 3G..
But you can't totally disable 3G, right?
You can, by using the Switch in the Comm Manager => Data Connection
Or you can go into All settings => Personal => Buttons and configure the End Button to disable Data Connection..
I know that, but the device turns this feature back on automatically if I try to send an e-mail or receive.
Go to All Settings>Connections>Advanced Network
In the drop down menu go to disable. That is all. Should be off for good till you turn it on/
heloooo~!!!1
i confirm that weather works with wify faster than 3G. Any application will lauch faster tahn 3G in wiffy.
Any who... i have T-mobile.....US...no 3G..just Edge but it works....actually i have the Touch pro2 and i can even stream video from my own home using Orb. Edge works perfect but wiify is way better than any band u are into.
Have a nice day guys.

HTC support said to go to Connections (in Connections tab) --> Advanced tab --> select networks --> create an empty profile and use it there
what about using NODATA.CAB???
If you're talking about Modaco's nodata.cab it didn't work for me....

That was the method I used to prevent costly dial-up on my previous 2G phone, it works fine.
what I did so that my Topaz dowsn't connect to 3G: settings - all settings - connections - advanced network - and there: Enable HSDPA only
and this pretty much did the trick. I saw that instead of a 3G icon on the screen, I'd see an icon with an "E".
So I finally jumped in and got the WanHu ROM installed with M's v5 patch. This thing is really nice now, hopefully it will stay that way even after I reinstall some of my apps.
One thing that I've noticed is that the ability to use only 2G networks is gone. It used to be an option under Settings » Wireless controls » Mobile networks. Any chance that may be coming back?
I know some people would probably think I'm crazy to be asking that, but in my experience the batter life was pretty much double that of what I was getting on 3G, so I'd use that mode sometimes.
Thanks for all the good work on the WanHu ROM.
You can turn off the 3g at Settings >> Wireless networks >> Data Network settings & there is also a 3g widget.
Hi,
At this point you only turn data on or off. You cannot switch from 3g to 2g.
I would like to have this feature to, because the radio at my work is very poor and the battery last much longer in 2g.
Sent from my XT720 using XDA App
switch 2g , 3g, and 2g/3g
if i have to change the default network setting (3, which mean 3g/2g auto), i can from here:
1. from the dialpad dial *#*#4636#*#*
2. from the popued menu, choose Phone Information
3. from "Set preffered network type" You can choose several options including:
"GSM auto (PRL)" (this is usually default and means 3g and failback to 2g, depending on signal
"WCDMA prefered" (this mean 3g and if there is no 3g, then 2g), this settings seems to wotk, but if you exit and return to the same menu it is changed
"WCDMA only" 3g only
"GMS only" 2g only
hope that helps.
p.s. I use Battery monitor application, which has shortcut to the Phone Information menu.

Thanks for the reply. I was messing around in those menus and could not find a "GSM only" mode on my phone. I will look again, but all I remember were an "auto" mode, a "3g only" mode, and a bunch of CDMA stuff (which doesn't apply to our phones).
But I will look again and try out the battery monitor application program as that would be nicer than typing the key sequence everytime.
And just to expand my (rather small) knowledge of the android OS. The option to select only 2G under Settings » Wireless controls » Mobile networks, is that a framework thing that has to be added?

Is there any widget or shortcut with one click to:
toggle between (3G + DATA) and (GSM without DATA)
The point is when I need internet I want to switch to faster 3G network, but for saving battery and better voice quality wanna back to GSM
tnx

1. menu > settings > mobile network > network mode > GSM or GSM/WCDMA
2. turn mobile data on or off
too many steps
I am asking for a widget to do the both settings with one click.
Just one click on the home screen to toggle between:
a) GSM/WCDMA with mobile network on
b) only GSM with mobile network off
very simple

I'm using HTC Sense widget:
Menu > Personalize > Widget > Settings >Mobile Network
Not sure if it toggle between GSM and WCDMA but it sure switch on/off data.
Try "Widgetsoid" from Market. Its pretty customisable.
Maybe it would be impossible to do what u want in 1 click (or would be possible - try it), but iam sure in 2 widget clicks u will get it.
Hi,
I am using Quicker Free from the Play Store - it docks in the notifcation bar and enables you to turn on/off 3G Data from pretty anywhere and lets you stay within the app you have currently opened. Plus it has controls and status widgets for almost anything you want to see / change on your phone.
After upgrading to ics, i cannot see the "network" option in the settings menu, which means that i cannot select mobile provider manually, i cannot enable data roaming abroad etc.
Any idea where it went??
When you are in settings, tap on the mobile network icon to go in specific settings.
Got it. Thanks!

Go to the play store and download Intelli3G. Open the app and you will see the "network mode" settings at the top, change your power saving mode to "GSM only (2G)" and change your fast network mode to "LTE/WCDMA". Now whenever you want to use 2G networks, just open the Intelli3G app and use the toggle mode to slow, if you want to switch back to LTE/WCDMA then toggle to fast.
