[Q] Changed to Retail Rom - No 3G select?

Hi folks,
Recently flashed my Omnia 7 to the generic retail UK rom to get rid of the T-Mobile splash screen and search.
Trouble is, I have lost the 3G toggle option.
I have the option to toggle 3G data, but not the cell.
Any ideas? Is the T-Mo UK rom the only one that can switch between 2G and 3G?

Look here

That's for 3G data, not cell. Like I said in my thread post. *Facepalm*

If you are homebrew enabled the Samsung Tools app can add this for you (regardless of the rom that you are using)

Think I was too late to the party for the Chevron stuff, I assume that's what you mean.

I don't think it's possible without homebrew unfortunately. It's controlled by a registry setting, which there is no way to modify without a homebrew program of some sort.
Edit - If you don't mind having to use an ugly GUI then you could try this to toggle 2g/3g (doesn't require DEV unlock):

[Q] Disable LTE

I'm using the ICS leak 213, and the CDMA-only option has disappeared. Any ideas how to disable 4g? I've got access to the programming menu, but there I'm lost.

LTE OnOff in the market, dials into the support menu (or whatever it's called) where you can change the radio. A bit of a pain, but better then having a dead battery 6 hours into your day.

This doesn't work on the Droid 4, the only option is to turn off the radio entirely.

Works for me just fine. It's not a widget, just a short cut. Select the drop down arrow about half the way down to see the different bands.

I'm not real up on the ICS leaks, I am still running GB, but I dl'd "4g toggle" from the market and it works awesome.

Thanks, I didn't see there was a menu there.

no problem, glad to help.

Thx for this thread I've been trying to figure out how to disable 4g. I downloaded the 4g toggle but it just links me back to my original choices of global gsm or lte/cdma. Any further ideas?

You need lte onoff as I stated earlier. Motorola has seen fit to remove the option in settngs to run on cdma only. the app I listed takes you into a support menu allowing you to select the bands through a drop down.
Widgets will most likely not work as the setting is in the framework and is not easily changed.

Works perfectly! Many thanks:good:

So I have been playing around with the LTEOnOff and was wondering if there was any information on the different types of radio's we can choose from.
EDIT:Since I poster this I found a neat webpage with a lot of information about the different radio signals.

[Q] Change/Remove carrier name from status bar

Hello !
The carrier name take the place of 5-6 notification icons, so I always have to scroll down notification bar to see new notification.
I've tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901865, but didn't work.
I've seen this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773879, but looking for an easy way if it exist...
My phone is rooted.

Pretty sure he's saying he wants to get rid of it. It's a complete waste of space. Carrier spam. Completely unnecessary, especially on an unbranded phone.

After doing this, you were able to see "3G" or "H" when you activate data? I think even in 3G, sprint htc m8 shows G only... There's an app called "4G switch" on playstore I use to switch modes. It's red icon with switch symbol. And it doesn't require root. Works on stock rom.

Use anyone of your choice man. Wcdma is 3g, GSM is 2g.

Just upgrade to Marshmallow, you'll get HSPDA - no more EDGE... Drawback is you'll lose native Hotspot functionality; I don't know why but the feature disappears once you upgrade...

Is CDMA+LTE/EVDO an option?
Pick that, if it is.

I was on AOSP Extended. It's a built in Black theme, plus I chose that other color as a highlight. There's approx 20 highlight colors to choose.
