Hello
My 850 WCDMA band will not stick after a reboot. I have to go into *#*#0011#*#* everytime and set the bands. Any way to make it stick?
Thanks in advance.

Are you able to verify you can use the 850 band when it is selected before a reboot?

Is there a way to disable the 1900 3G band and just keep 850 and 2100? Whenever my phone (i896 rogers running JK4 modem) switches to 1900, I lose 3G connection. It takes a few mins for it to switch to other bands and restore connectivity.

Rogers i896 Captivate
ROM - Perception 10.2
Kernel - Firebird 2 0.4
Modem - JK4
Dial *#2263# ... (spells BAND). It's likely set to Automatic as the default. Manually select/deselect what you want under COMBI BANDS. If you need to revert it, just reselect AUTOMATIC.

I can only select single specific bands and can't deselect any options? How do I deselect something?

I've never been able to selectively choose options from there, but a workaround would be to just go into the WCDMA bands, select 850 and set that as the only one.
I do that and use HSPA only with my phone.

I had an extremely similar problem recently. Only solution I found was reflashing the modem and reselecting all in band selection. Problem went away after that.
Is there any way to get my Captivate to stick to 850 band only, and not switch to 1900. I live in an area where I have 3G coverage on both bands.
Edit: I can get to this using SGS tools, but that would be only till a restart. Any way to get this to stick permanently until disabled.
Go to the phone dialer and put in *#2263# from there you can select what band you want. To check if it took, type *#0011#
Yes.. what he posted above should work even after reboot
The moment I set to 850 its switching from 3g to edge. Strange. Cos when on 3g mode its always been on 850, atleast 80% of times

Thats one thing the bugged me is that this phone ... AT&T version anyways.... loves to camp on 1900mhz more and would be fine if it would switch to 850 when needed..... alot of time I would be at -111db and still on 1900 when 850 in the same are would be at -103db.
I enable 850 that way but once you reboot... you need to do it again.....

Technically, the lower band should have lower signal strength reducing radiation. Plus should be using less battery power. That is why I am seeing how to get to 850.
Anyways, I think I'll leave it how it is.
Hi I recently flashed the serendipity rom and my signal strength has been fluctuating alot. After going into the service menu using *#0011# I can see that my bands keep switching between 850 and 1900. I would like to disable the 1900 band but cant figure out how. The service menu that im using does not give me any options to change anything. Can someone please tell me how to disable a band?
Thanks

Thanks but I know how to get to the service menu but I cant change anything. All I see there is the status of my phone. Where are the options to change?
Thanks I got it now.
On MIUI the phone app doesnt have *#2263# menu to set the radio band
Can someone tell me how to actually set the radio band to 850mhz..
In settings selecting 3G Only just results in No data connection.........
Afaik if you have 850 enabled before flashing MIUI, it will stay enabled.
There is no way to change the band from within MIUI/CM7.

Hi everyone.
I'm having some issues related to the mobile operator signal (CLARO BR).
The I9305-T only have the LTE option associated to the the other type of frequencies (LTE/GSM/HSPA).
Is there anyway in which I can choose a "LTE-ONLY" frequency?
My phone is rooted and the ROM is Samsung original (odexed).

1st of all, no such option yet. 2nd, the option is not practical as there is no place in the earth that have full coverage of lte network now. So if you do have such option to choose only lte network , you will find that you will always be disconnected when you enter some area that don't have lte network
I asked that because I have Lte coverage at work and at home.
Elsewhere in my city, the usual coverage is the H+.
I thought there was an app, a kind of a switcher, which would only work on rooted phones.
Anyway, thanks bro.

Settings, under networks, more, mobile networks, network mode and select wcdma + LTE . Its the closest you'll get for the moment and beware LTE is a battery hog.

Go to the engineering menu (type *#197328640# inside the phone.)
There go to [1] UMTS, [1] DEBUG SCREEN, [8] PHONE CONTROL, [7] NETWORK CONTROL, [2] BAND SELECTION, [4] LTE Band Preference, [5] LTE ALL
Note, that you will lose all non-LTE connection after this, and this option is saved, and not reset during a reboot! You will not be able to call anyone, but you will be able to use LTE speeds properly!
To go back open engineering menu again.
Then [1] UMTS, [1] DEBUG SCREEN, [8] PHONE CONTROL, [7] NETWORK CONTROL, [2] BAND SELECTION, [1] Automatic, [1] Automatic
No root access needed for this, works with all Samsung and Samsung based ROMs. Don't know whether it works with CM.
Use with care! As I've said you will lose access to non-LTE bands after the change until you reset it! A reboot or a firmware upgrade will not reset it! (Reflashing the modem firmware will however)
Thanks for your help!
I found this engineering menu and it worked fine. That's what I wanted!
