Where are you based and what provider are you with? What rom are you on?
Gonna need a lot more information.

Sounds like it's probably your location meaning you're npt able to connect to the 3G and therefore are using EDGE which is slower..
Setting-wireless-mobile network-network mode -here should be 'auto' if it is 'gsm' then you will get edge only not 3g..
If it is already auto, then check 3g is available to your location or not. And in our country there is different subscription for 2g n 3g so ask your network operator whether it is like that.

Some providers limit speed when over max download, bastards, that could also be the case I read.
Try different modem also sometime works, as wel as checkibg if your apn settings are correct same place as what dr Ketan said. ACCESS POINT NAMES.
I remember something about 1700 mhz network incompatability with phone in us on att network, might also be the case. Check provider network if fastest speeds are supported on your phone

Im on t-mobile and for some reason i never ever get edge, even if on 2G only. Only ever receive GPRS which is so slow... Help would be great thanks.
Anybody?

Are you running stock? If you arent, make sure you have the correct baseband set through recovery. (AOR forsure has this option)

In my own country, some Telco GSM network are using GPRS instead of EDGE for their 2G mode and WCDMA/UMTS for their 3G mode.
The telco that I am specifically using in my country offers EDGE for their 2G mode and HSDPA as their 3G mode.
Ever since I have unlocked my captivate with the free app in the play stor Ive lost 3G data completely...Im using a TMobile sim card...can anyone help? If it helps any...the 3G doesnt work with anybRom or stock rom
The frequencies that Tmobile uses compared to what the Captivate runs on will only allow u to get the Edge network. ---- Unless u r in one of the areas that Tmobile has recently reworked their network in, so that 3g is available. See google search for more detailed info. :thumbup:

I live in Dominican Republic and use this phone with Claro RD with 850 freq, for some reason i installed a jellybean slimroms rom and my internet was H+ but when i returned to gingerbread software it only says 3G, do any of you know how to get this phone to show 4G or at least H+ with 2.3.6 stock software?

i may not explain this right, but it has something to do with how its coded. u still get 4G but just shows on 3G. there is a patch to show it back as 4G

HSDPA is "3.5G" and therefor some roms classify it as 3G, some roms classify it as H, some roms classify it as 4G.
There is a zip file floating in one of the rom threads that appends the 3G icon into a 4G icon, but it's only cosmetic, there's no actual difference in speed for any of the roms, it's just which icon it shows.
interesting prompted me to look into the difference in cellular data tech didn't know there was a difference before
hello
i've been googling this for a couple of hours now and i cant seem to find how to solve my problem
i was with my gf today, she has a S3. we are both connected to the same network operator. my signal was E , hers was H .. i went to system settings->about phone->status on both phones and compared signal strength and it was about the same.
my brother's iphone 4s almost always have much faster internet when i'm connected to edge (that means he's not on edge) - he's also connected to the same network operator.
its driving me crazy , why won't my cappy stay connected to hsdpa when its possible? how can i change that ? (WCDMA is preferred, baseband selection is automatic)
i'm using I9000XXJVT modem. was using slim bean rom 4.2.2 build 2.5 (now i'm on build 3) . unofficial semaphore kernel.
about my network operator technology from wikipedia (its a virtual operator):
"Its network is an HSPA+[citation needed] network in the 2100Mhz band, with roaming also available on Cellcom's 1800Mhz GSM[6] and 850Mhz/2100Mhz HSPA+ network."
any help would be appreciated.
The Captivate's Network Frequencies and Data Type: GSM Quadband:850/900/1800/1900MHz
UMTS Tri-band:850/1900/2100MHz

type *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer and then go to phone info, scroll down a little bit and you'll see it .. there is no UMTS there ..
i forgot to mention that I DO GET CONNECTED to hsdpa when there is good signal , but when there is low signal it switches automatically to edge , and i always thought thats normal and its ok , but today i got really surprised , 2 iphones + 1 sgs3 , that were on the same network operator were having much faster internet than i had. i had 2 E bars , the s3 had 2 H bars. and as i said before the s3 had just about the same signal strength (dBm and asu)
thanks for the reply though
Sounds like the iphone 4s and sgs 3 are probably connecting to the 4g network.

as far as i know there is no 4g in my country yet + the s3 is the international version so it doesnt support 4g anyway (im pretty sure its the same with the iphone)
Change your preferred network to GSM auto (PRL)

Open dialer *#*#2263#*#*
Then try desired band

Let us know what the results are for you after you change the preferred type to what i suggested in my previous post.

it won't stick.. but anyway, i guess this is the opposite of what i want (i want H preferred over E) , or am i mistaken ?

my network provider supports hsdpa on 850 and 2100mhz and edge on 1800mhz, i still want the 1800mhz where there is no 850/2100mhz signal , but i want it to be 3rd priority (where 850 and 2100 are the first 2 priorities)
theoretically WCDMA preferred should do what i want , but its not. thats whats driving nuts..
thanks for the replies
oh man.. i said it myself , my network provider supports 850mhz .. i'm using i9000 modem , which doesn't support 850mhz hsdpa .. this could be it .. is there any way to check on which band i'm connected right now ?
EDIT: the answer is *#*#0011#*#* .. i'll check this out later when the scenario happens again, and i'll post results (i'm home now and i have full hsdpa signal here, so i cant investigate any further atm)
Well, in the city I live the 3G+ signal is very poor, while my 3G (HSDPA) runs flawlessly (1mbps stable connection, what is pretty rare to find here in Brazil).
The problem comes when my cellphone keeps connecting to 3G+ towers and I just couldn't find how to keep HSDPA only.
Looking for some help, 'cause I know some samsung devices got a hidden dial number to set only hspa hsupa hsdpa hspa+ etc and razr i doesn't.
Thanks in advance

I'm using TIM at the moment. My plan is what they call as "TIM Beta Teste" and I'm able to reach 1.2Mbps sometimes w/o data limits neither speed limits.
here it goes some speedtest
btw, i think i've managed to get into this menu by dialing to #073887*. the only problem is that it asks me for a "SIM network unlock PIN", and i've been trying many things since then and i can't get it to work.
