My battery life is killing me.
Can anyone tell me how to switch the bands like I used to on my 8525?
I looked under settings/phone/ - no "Band" tab
I modified the registry ShowUMTSBandPage to "1" but still nothing shows up.
Please help!!!
Thanks!
Open the file manager, switch to the Windows directory, search for the file "HSDPASwitch.exe" and run it. I hope the file is available on the Tilt.
Is this what you are looking for?

Nope. We dont have that file. Can you send us the file and see if it can work on the Tilt?
It is there, but you have to turn on "Show all files". At least on the AT&T stock firmware.
Peter - thanks for the info. It wasn't quite the file I was looking for (it does exist on the AT&T Tilt units. There's a "band" tab on the phone settings that allows you to switch between GSM & CDMA. There's a band.html in Windows directory that explains this but it doesn't seem to be available.
The file is there, but doesn't seem to work. I uncheck the enable HSDPA box, and it pops up to say I need to reset, but after a soft reset, I still have 3G.
I believe the HSDPA app is for switching between UMTS & HSDPA (which is the higher data rate).
What I'm looking for is the band tab application to select between Edge & 3G (like on the 8525).
I'm not even passed 1/2 my day and I'm already on 46% (I had it charged fully at 7am).
battery life is concerning me too - so i'm trying the Fully charge/fully deplete cycle a few times to see if i can achieve better battery performance.
if not.. time to start cutting back on the services or get a desk/car charger
You can always use a different comm manager. I use one of Shapps. Here is a black version... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1575189&postcount=131

will that comm manager work with the tilt? Isn't that comm manager for the Hermes?

been trying to figure out the band page issue myself - the registry entries form the Hernes days don't work. i believe you can manipulate the registry keys to do this but clearly not a user freinfly option.
Can someone who understands what the 3G buttons (on the Comm Mangers that have it) does behing the scenes?

I had to unassanble the program to let commmgrpro be compatible with Kaiser
It unregister, from operator and then makes a hidden and undocumented direct call to the driver to make the magic and previously does a change in registry. But the complicated things was to discover the correct params needed by the IOCTRL function
Dani
I wish I knew that as well, I would love to have a switch for 3g or nothing cause edge is brutally slow
I turned on 3g in the command center but my phone still switches between eg and edge frequently. When I turn off 3g in the command center it turns off my data all together, is this functioning properly?

his newest version works on the kaiser.
I transferred the bandswitch cab from 8525 over to my tilt and works no problem.
can you post a link so I don't have to dig through all the 8525 software?

I don't why you have to install and use a program to disable GPRS when Windows Mobile does the same thing:
Touch Start > Settings > Connections > Connections > Advanced > Network Selection.
Set both settings to "Office Network".
With this configuration, your Viva never uses GPRS.
Notice: I have the Touch Viva in Italian, maybe the translations above aren't accurate. Sorry for this...

Hi!

I find your forum, and when I read, there some interegation make came into my eyes?????
Sorry for my poor english writing, but i'm a french person and I assure you that I do my Best!
My question is... which KIES software that I need?
(I install KIES_1.5.5.10092_58_8.exe but when I run this program, they said there was a new update and after That I update the software, I look at the version and it's said 1.0.0. on the Icon but in preferences option it said 2.0.0.11011_49)
which sequence firmware that I neek, there is a sequence or I just put the last one...
I get my new Firmware at Samfirmware dot com...wright
Here, can I put any of the Firmware that I need to make and to receive call like a cell phone?
In my Tab, the firmware that I found is P1000RUXJJ6...it's the real info?
Thanks you so much for your help, i'm appreciate!
Alain
Hi Alain,
Going out on a limb here, but are you in Canada and French is your native language?
If so, I presume you have a Rogers or Bell Tab that didn't come with voice functionality out of the box?
If that is the case, you should read the thread here. Note, if you have a CDMA Tab, don't do this!!!
If this isn't the case, you need to be a bit more specific about where you are, what carrier you are using, and the "type" of your Tab.
Regards,
Dave
Thanks Dave for your anwser!
And yes i'm with Roger, but I just dont know how to get my CDMA info?
I will look at your link...
But if I understand what you wright, I must dont have the hardware into my tab to make call and receive some...it's wright?
Alain
If you are on Rogers, you will have a GSM Tab capable of bring flashed to a ROM and radio combination that will allow voice, though obviously you will need a SIM with a voice plan.
The link I posted should be all you need to do this.
Regards,
Dave
I have already a voice plan. . . I'm updated again the Kies software and I wll download
Odin3 v1.31
P1000XWJJ4 & P1000XXJK5
and follow the instruction! !!
Step by step. . . I will win!!!!

Now everything is done, all you need to input is APN, which means settings for your 3G connection to work Check under "Wireless and network" > "Mobile networks" > "Access Point Names" > Are there any settings in here? If there aren't you will need to search for "Roger 3G APN" or go here for settings, report back here on your progress.
Hey you guys, you are so HOT!!!!!!
Thanks you very much for your help!
I was sure that I have to deal with no 3G data and I was very sad!
Thanks you!

Hey Guys
I wanna change my signal icon so it says 4G instead of LTE.
On my HTC One XL there was a file called buildflag located under /system/customise/ that I could change to match my carrier to do it but it doesn't seem to be there anymore.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks
Bump anybody?

Mine changed when I flashed an ITNL ROM, 3G=3G, HSPA+=H, and 4G=... IDK I don't have AT&T 4GLTE here -.-
Yeah most countries use that standard it's just I the US the company's are exploiting a loop hole that allows them to use the term 4G for what effectively is HSDPA+.
Not looking to change the rom just looking for the build flag file to change so I can have 4G come up instead of LTE. I think I'll try posting in the rom thread instead.
Thanks anyway mate.

If you only want icon to change (and not the actual network level) you can rename files in SystemUI.apk (/system/app) under /res/drawable/xx-hdpi and push it back to the phone

Thanks mate - not exactly the answer I was looking for but I think I can make it work.
Ok so the icons are already there just going to rename them from 4G to LTE as you suggested.
Swapped the SystemUI.apk around and the status bar didn't show.
sooo did u change the the signal icons? i want to change the H for 4G can u help me?

Probably too late now but you can just change the sku_id to match t-mobiles. I had this problem and almost messed up my phone flash crap just for that. just look for /system/customize/ACC/default.xml in root explorer and change that SKu_id to 11 and restart and the icon with change to the 4G.
Hey there, i think anybody haven't tried this on WP 8.1, so this morning i have my L720 updated to 8.1 dev preview, but there's a problem that it STILL cant open the field test function to lock the 3G signal..
In my country the 3G signal really doesn't stable at all, i've found a trick to use, but it didn't work with WP 8.1, it's only for WP 8 (with nativetoast app)..
so anybody has figured out the solution for this ? thanks..
im also looking for a way to access field test. please help

Lumia needs field test update. or some means to lock the signal very badly. whole purpose of smartphone is getting wasted.
The place where i live Assam (india) signal swithes between E, G, H, 3G within no time mostly E. making my life terrible.
Hope some dev create an app like thing soon..

my battery drains quickly as my continuously search for best signal to use. 3g vs LTE vs Edge and it keeps on searching most of the time.
if only we can lock it to 3G only then it would make our life easier
Read the thread in my sig. It covers all OEMs, and has some device specific codes too!
Hope someone can make this work again. Or create something taht will let us access the field test menu again on wp8.1. This is very helpful tool for me since my lte/3g signal is not stable. Thank you.
