Hi...
How do I can choose between use 3g or 2g? (there are a few programs that connect 3g automatically and it's a bit expensive )
are there any way so i can use 3g and GPRS only if i say so?
thanks
in settings-phone you can setup which band you would like to use (gsm, gsm+umts, umts)...

I did the kaisertweak to enable the H network or whatever (yes i don't understand it)
the network still says E or 3G . It said that all the time, for the last few days.
Then I was messing around trying to get this gps to work in google maps and I noticed it switched to H. but now it's back to 3G. is this all normal?
Ive noticed that too..
no idea what it means
what operator are you with in what country
check with them to see if you have hsdpa reception my hsdpa is enabled but since i dont have coverage i stay at 3g
hsdpa is a better version of 3g
its often called 3.5g 3g+ or mobile broadband so basically all the twaek is is to let your phone get the faster connection but only if your operator has the signal to do so
The H icon (HSDPA) is a step up from 3G it allows anything up to 7.2Mbs transfer but the HTC instead of contantly allowing this to be active thus creating massive battery drain only allows it when a data connection is active and data is being transferred any other time and you will only get G, E or 3G
3g alows ypou to have video conferences but H mean HSPD fast internet 3,6Mbit or 7.2Mbit depands that the difference i belive.
exactly just because you enable it doesnt mean you can recive it
I turned hsdpa with kaiser tweak also. I noticed it will only connect to hsdpa when transferring data (IE, emails, weather, ect.). Otherwise it will go back to 3G when on the today screen, or offline tasks. I guess its to conserve power?
Maybe thats what your seeing?
ok thanks, looks to be normal =]
When I set my Diamond to Auto configuration it always chooses GSM with GPRS data, I believe its because the signal is stronger than 3G.. If I set the phone to 3G it works fine (almost always shows full signal strenght). But at my work I have no 3G signal, and I need to manually set the phone to "auto" och GSM again, and it wont change back to 3G when there is 3G in range again (even if I choose Auto).
So, my question is, is there any app or solution to ALWAYS be connected to 3G when there is enough signal, if not, it will choose GSM until it finds the 3G signal again?
Im getting quite irritated when I need to change the band manually several times a day...
Thanks..

Advanced Config has an option to add a '3G' button to CommManager which does exactly what you want.
What I would really like however, is a 3G button that toggles between '3G' and 'GSM', rather than 'Auto' and 'GSM'
Anyone ?
Hi All!
Had a look but can't see any posts that answer my question which is: how do I force my Diamond to use HSDPA when browsing. I am with Vodafone and I have had the HSDPA icon show occasionally but usually browsing defaults to GPRS.
Any help welcomed
Answering my own question
Hi All!
I was trying out my Browser at work in Edinburgh. I have just now tried the MS Internet Explorer browser (with wi-fi switched off). It connects using H (HSDPA) Duh!
ME
i dont believe it's possible
gprs, edge, umts hspda it's all the same
signal just with the right connection
and quality the speed inc
from the pda's point of view it's the same thing
only the speed changes
You can't force it to use HSDPA. It all depends on what the coverage is like where you are when you use your browser. If you have wifi on and you are connected, it will default to that connection regardless whether you are in a HSDPA enabled area, just 3g or GSM.

hi everyone ,i'm a new user .
as title i make this question.i often connect to internet by 3g connection.i went to setting/mobile network then i set data connection: on,3g connection: on and my country APN.My Hd7 work well ,but only "use 3g connection when availale". it almost switch to 2g network
Anybody have ideas to solve it ?it really really necessary for me
Sorry for my bad English,hope you understand my problem
Go to the dialer. Type ##3282#. Go to settings, under 'Network Type', choose 3G only. If it's already on 3G only (I think it moves back and forth between 2G only and 3G only while on Automatic mode), change it to 2G only, then back to 3G only. This will keep it on 3G only.
thank you very much.i solved it
hello friends I have a t-mobile hd7 but I'm from Colombia, they know how I can make it work on 3G network here in Colombia because it only works on 2g
Hey guys,
I was wondering what the difference between GSM and UMTS is, according to the settings of the LG Optimus 2X I can select GMS or UMTS or both.
Couldn't find the answer anywhere so I'm asking it here.
How do you guys have the settings set?
Using T-mobile btw (Netherlands).
Thanks in advantage
Hi,
I think gsm mode is called as 2G, umts as 3/3.5G ... 2G mode is save your battery but the data traffic will be slower. You can switch between them in settings/wireless settings/mobile networks/ and check or uncheck the only 2G network (or something similar, I've tried to translate the menu names from Hungarian). However, you can find a simple app in the Market to do it easier:
2G-3G OnOff (CurveFish)
Yes, 2G mode saves battery and offers slower download speeds. You can reach decent speed with EDGE @ 20-25-30 k/s. So If you don't need the speed of 3G, you can set the phone to GSM only mode.
On the other hand with 3.5G you can reach very good speeds (800k/s here in Bulgaria), but it drains the battery faster, even there are no active transfers.
So basically what you are both telling me is, just put the phone on GSM/UMTS (automode). Because I often use 3G/HSDPA.
Definitely!
