Hello,
I need an application that changes the 3G/4G network, easily and simply, through a shortcut on the home screen.
Can anyone point me to one?

Hello,
because of the high battery usage i want to enable 3g only if i use it to surf the internet or something.
I know, there are few programs like bandswitch or commmgr, but they are to "hugh" for me.
So what i want is a little program, that ONLY switches either from 3g to gsm or from gsm to 3g just by starting the program, for example in the tf3d program shortcuts, without having to enter a pin or anything else.
Is this possible? Or is it possible to open a special windows configuration, like the telefon->band-config by shortcuts?
Hope you can help me.
Thanks
Install this free application.
Okay i see on Samsung or ATT for some reason is only allowing 3g connections. When i had my nexus one i was able to use gsm only or gsm auto (prl) etc..
Wondering if anyone successfully been able to change the settings when you dial:
*#*#4636#*#* i believe it is.

Off-topic, but: which clock/weather widget are you using? (sorry! But I love sense and just had to ask!)

could possibly be beautiful widgets
edit - it was fancy widgets
i would love to know where you got your wallpaper
Would love a solution. The standard *##info##** pulls up the admin (or whatever) menu but I access band selection it says access restricted. The menue where you can select WCDMA only or GSM/CDMA auto etc is accessible, but the change doesn't stick. I selected GSM only and then backed out but nothing happened. Killed radio and turn on again. Still on 3G. I tried the *#*#197328640#*#* as well with no luck.
If anyone can figure out how, by any means, lock the phone to GSM or enable manual band selection it would be much appreciated.

I found out that if you go into the dialer and type in *#*#197328640#*#* that it will take you into a menu that will allow you to change it. From the main menu of the ServiceMode screen, select DEBUG SCREEN, then PHONE CONTROL at the bottom, then UE STATE CONTROL. From there select CHANGE RAT TO WCDMA to enable 3G only, and select CHANGE RAT TO GSM for 2G only.

This works, Just have to re do every time you reboot
I would also love to find a better solution to the switching- since I am now locked to a non-unlimited data plan!
Hi, I've tried to do a bit of searching on XDA / google but not found exactly what I am looking for. I've seen all the APN switchers but these do not alter the actual network provider from what I understand.
What I would like to do is have an automated why of switching between T-Mobile and Orange networks. In the UK we can now use either network but the current policy is that when the provider is set to automatic network selection if a T-Mobile signal cannot be found then it should switch to an Orange signal if one is available.
This is fine but my T-Mobile signal is not very good in certain locations (fail to get SMS message) and so I'd like to be able to switch to Orange without going through the system settings menu which is slow because of the network search.
I'd love to get a tasker plugin or script that could automatically perform the switch based on location if possible.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Hi
Did you find any solutions for that because I need exactly the same thing?
Thanks
Sadly not, I've ended up just using the Orange signal full time.
Hi all,
Is there anyway to make the proxy settings on Win8/RT automatically change when I connect/disconnect to a certain network? At the minute I have to do it manually every day when I switch between my home network and my school network. Instead of writing a script to do this, is it possible to make it do it automatically? Thanks.
I have quite a specific problem:
I live near the national border and my mobile network selection has to be set to manual, because otherwise it would randomly switch to roaming on a network from the other country, even though my home network coverage is practically 100%.
But quite often I do cross the border to area out of reach from my home mobile network and then I have to set it to automatic or manually select foreign network.
Now, the problem is when I get back home, i have to switch again. This switching is often and annoying. And forgetting to switch can also be expensive.
So I'm searching for an app that would allow me to toggle a switch (widget preferably) that would change network selection setting to automatic when i intent to leave my country and switch again to set it to manually connect to my home network when i come back.
Does any body know about an app that would allow me to do that or does anyone have a similar problem?
I'm thinking about creating an app like this though.
Similar Problem... Setting Preference Order for Mobile Networks
I have a Moto G 2013 running Android 5.0.2.
In Bangalore(where I live), Airtel has the highest 3G coverage. But I am on Vodafone (more coverage in my area and less tariffs) which does not have its own 3G network yet. So I manually set my network preference to Airtel while I'm outside. But I need to manually change the network back to Vodafone at home if I want to stay connected.
Setting to Automatic does not help as it always chooses Vodafone and so no 3G.
So I would like to know if there is any way to solve my problem and if there is any app to set preference.
Thanks a lot!
