It works but too low signal...
Every other band is working 2100 1800
So what's the problem?

anyone can do that???
3G is HSPA. Some carriers are just more specific about the connection, hence one might see an E instead of 2G or an H instead of 3G and H+ instead of 4G. Here in the US the only carrier that's specific about the connection used is sprint which displays an Ev (for EvDO) to indicate 3G (even tho their speeds are more like 1G).
I wonder HSDPA is an enhanced 3G which the speed is faster than 3G. Lumia diagnostics has built in setting to turn on or off the HSDPA that I wonder it can set the phone in default 3G or user defined HSDPA. Hence Lumia user can still select in radio setting lower to 2G connection in order to save more standby time.

this is exaclty what i ask for, at least save some battery life...
remember how the iphone 3G has great battery life?
because it does not use HSPDA, only 3G, and this is during web usage too..
As I understand, Verizon operates on 850 MHz for voice & text, 1900 MHz for 3G and 700 MHz for 4G, is this correct? I read this somewhere, but the main reason I came to this conclusion is that when I get a text or send data on 4G, my desktop speakers "buzz" due to RF noise, but when I send 3G data, there is no noise, and I know 1900 MHz doesn't cause any RF noise similar to WiFi. Anyway, just wanted to confirm.
I thought voice was 800 Mhz. Also, 3G coverage is a mix of 800/1900 depending on your area I believe. 800 for normal 3G and 1900 for broadband (at least I think...).

3G is broadband, I'm not sure what you refer to as regular 3G. Usually anything 2G or below is narrow band, and usually voice is over 1xRtt or GSM, not CDMA or WCDMA, because CDMA was built for data and not as a realtime network for voice.
CDMA is Verizon's 3G. I'm not questioning whether voice is on 800 or 850 (which is a minor detail), either could be correct, if you read 800, then it is probably 800, I just wanted to know for sure that voice and text are always on the lower frequency (800 or 850), which has a better range than 1900, and that CDMA / 3G is on the higher frequency (1900), which goes through obstacles and walls easier, and not vice versa. I've never heard my 3G data ever make RF noise, that's why I'm assuming it's on the 1900 MHz band.
Samsung s4 mini no signal with 900 mhz sims.But have signal using 1800 mhz sims.Any hardware solution?
Hello,
Does anybody know if there is a big difference in power consumption of 3G or 4G? Every chipset is different, and I'm unable to find the power usage of both modems.
I am using a provider that uses 900 MHz, 1800 MHz and 2100 MHz for LTE and 900+2100 MHz for 3G.
I am getting full bars almost everywhere. On 3G and 4G.
I've locked the 4G frequency on 900 MHz-only, so my phone doesn't switch between frequenties and that I always have the best reception.
Kind regards,
Pilovali
LTE uses less power on the SD410 SOC in most cases... there is no need to lock the frequency either, the phone and tower will agree on the best signal, although the one you are using now may seem like the best, it is may not be in all conditions, buildings, interference areas, etc.
Alright, that's what I wanted to know. I'll keep my Moto G on LTE then
I always thought that 3G uses less power than LTE.

It used to be that way... Go back to HTC Rezound or Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE days and yes, LTE radios would suck a battery dry in no time, but modern SOCs are far more efficient.
Alright, thanks for the feedback!
How can you close a thread, btw?
My G955FD is receiving low signal over pgsm 900mhz frequency compare to other phones in the area... Anyone having smiliar issue?
