Try this:
Settings > Wireless & Networks > More... > Mobile networks > Network Mode > [Select CDMA/EvDo auto]
Then reboot.

Is that a joke?

That's not an option or I wouldn't be asking.

No need to be an asshole about it. That is the way it is for other VZW phones.

I apologize I thought you were mocking me. The options are for global, lte/cdma, or gsm/umts

Yup, that very one. In my area 4G is very inconsistant, downloaded this, it works like a charm.

May I ask what is the point of this? 4g is kinda strange in my town and next few towns.

4G lte is a battery killer compared to 3g, and my house has very low 4g signal. Device holds 1 or 2 bars 4G instead of stronger 3g. No way to manually switch anymore. Need app that does it.

2G only mode

Guys/Girls,
For some strange reason I don't have an option for GSM (2G mode) only, I'm on three, anyone else have this same issue?
The problem I have is in my house my signal isn't great, I flick between 3G to browse the internet (as have no WiFi atm until Sky install it), but most of the time my phone will switch to 2G (roaming) which I have almost full signal when this happens. Though when I need to switch from 2G or 3G our visa versa the only way I can do it is search for network's then choose 3G or 2G on three, is there an alternative method?
I've downloaded tasker so I can set up my phone to switch to 2G and stay in that mode when I get home, when I get WiFi, though I'm trying to get my head around it atm. Can tasker solve my problem with a widget etc?
Thanks in advance!

Three is a 3g only network
2g used to be available as a fallback when there was no 3 network but this ended a year or 2 ago

That makes perfect sense now, not sure why I didn't think of that. Though my phone still falls back to a 2G network it just means I don't get a choice if it does it or not.

You can try to change it by entering *#*#4636#*#* in dial pad under phone information.

For tasker you need to be rooted. You need to resign the rom then you can install toggle 2g by themasterbarron which gives a plug in to work with tasker

You are lucky.. Where am the fall back was totally removed so there was no 2g service of any type as there is reasonable 3g coverage. But the signal never carried into my house
3 will remove the ability country wide at some point because the 2g service is provided by another carrier by roaming agreements which obviously costs 3

Ah I thought it was root only, will look into that thanks.
Yeah well if they remove 2G from my area I will have a mega problem as signal as poor very poor! I switched from Orange recently because of poor signal in my house, just got to hope that they increase the 3G coverage first!

Is your phone from Three? If yes, if you flash one of the unbranded images with flashtool (no risk, no data loss) you'll gain many more settings.

Yes it is... When you say no risk does that mean if something goes wrong it and I have to send it to three for repair they won't know? Sorry I've only had HTCs and Samsungs.

Make an ftf backup of your firmware(there is how to in dev section),and you can flash it back when needed.

AW: 2G only mode
"Free" devices interestingly have more options, see screenshot attached.
Make sure to report back your findings in case you unbrand your device.
Your screenshot displays what I was expecting to see on mine...but once I understood that three restrict certain settings in their firmware it made sense.
I will certainly upload a screenshot once I get around to following those instructions

Mja. Lets you modify apn!

Well I had seen someone asking about this and I gave it a try.
I updated from MF9 to MJA 4.3.
Inserted a non-sprint sim card (telcel from Mexico) and I was given the option to change or add apn.
I've been trying to attach the screen shot s but the app won't let me.?

I just tried a t-mobile sim and it still let's you add new apn. However the "NETWORK OPERATOR" option stays greyed out. I don't get the "invalid sim card" error like before.

Try changing it from cdma/lte to gsm and see if it allows you to use T-Mobile service. I would do it but I don't know anyone that has T-Mobile.

Can't try it until wednesday, my cousin is the only one I know who has t-mobile and he's gone for the week.

I can confirm mja let's you modify apn's, and now is even easier for us to install roma from other carriers, I'm running latest omega and I didn't even have to install stock kernel, just flash omega and modify apn's and i got 4g

No you must first install APN shortcut from the play store, use it to modify your apns ,
I almost never need to change my network mode! But just in case you do, go to your mobile networks or to your dialer and * #*#4636#*#* and then click on phone information,I hope it works for you man, please let me know if it works thanks
And just one more thing, after you modify your apns you might need to wait for a few minutes before you get 4g, it happened me

When you say 4G what do you mean? Hspa+? I don't think that this phone even has the capability of band 4 lte. I wrote a guide on domestic sim unlock that is reliable and any input you have on it would be great. Check my profile for the link.
