How do you set the radio band(eg850) on MIUI roms - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

3G problem

I have a problem with my rooted SGS. The network keeps changing to EDGE and 3G. Is there anyway to keep it on 3G only?

open the dialer and enter the phone code:
*#*#197328640#*#* (service mode)
and then navigate to the band selection menu
(1: debug, 8: phone control, 7:network control, 2:band selection)
select wcdma band only (instead of automatic)
Thanks alot PatcheZ. That solved the problem

[Q]850 band does not save.

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?

how to disable bands

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.

What about the apps in the Market to toggle 2g/3g ?? I did a quick search and I saw 5 or 6 right off... not sure if that is what u r looking for though. There are free and paid apps for u to choose from.

[Q] LTE-only Mode

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!
