I am in a fringe 4g area where I don't have a really good signal, so I want to force to 3g but the option for preferred networks is grayed out. Anyone else have this problem?

I was able to install LTE onOff from the market, but I should be able to do it in the system settings.
Go to the Dialer, type *#*#4636#*#* and then go to Phone Information. In the lower half of that screen you'll get every network option you could ask for. Go "CDMA Only" for 2G data only and choose "CDMA Auto (PRL)" for 3G
Thanks for that, buy we used to be able to switch between 3g/cdma and LTE in the settings menu. I am just trying to figure out if it is an unfinished part of the leak or something permanent of ics.
So today my atrix did something odd. I walked up to my phone turned it on and the symbol for the data had changed to 4Glte but wasn't showing that it had connected. I downloaded LTE Settings off the play store and set it the way I've seen some people say to do it on T-mobile, which is the GSM/WCDMA auto (PRL) but now the logo went back to just 4G. I saw someone say to change the APN settings to fast.tmobile.com but mine shows epc.tmobile.com and it won't let me edit it. Am I missing something?

Create a new APN and copy the other settings. The same thing happened to me in Hollywood, CA the other day but I couldn't get data with either APN.
I'll try it out after work see if maybe I can get it working. At least keeping the auto prl I have data

I still couldn't get data last night. I noticed today while playing with APNs that even if I selected my custom LTE APN, it would revert back to the original APN. So I modified my custom APN to match these settings and drove today to an area with LTE signal and I was finally able to get data.
After trying searching today countless apps and signal booster apps i finally found one that worked. I tried Viaero Toggle app from the play store and now have a constant 4g signal. I have tested 2 methods on the app. Tried a method setting my preferred network to just LTE and CDMA/LTE. Setting it to just LTE works except you have an X over your signal bars, CDMA/LTE doesnt.
1. Download the Viaero toggle app
2. Select phone information
3. Scroll down where it says preferred network
4. Select LTE or LTE/CDMA
This is for people who KNOW their supposed to have an LTE connection. I used to own a GS3 and had a constant LTE signal. Switching to the ONE my LTE constantly jumps from LTE to 3G which was my biggest gripe. Now I'm in love with my ONE all over again. So if you know you have this issue. This will help trust me.
Let me know your results. I really want to work for everyone because this has been pissing me off for the longest. I had even switched out for a second HTC one and they both had signal issues. If it doesnt help let me know and we can try other methods for different people.
The 2 pics i attached is one with just LTE and the other is LTE/CDMA
You know that X over the signal bars mean you no longer have a voice connection right? Kind of defeats the purpose of a phone

The better way of doing this would be to use the ##DATA# shortcut (provided you have your MSL), but you certainly can do this.

Not if you only use VOiP, but I don't disagree.

If you just want to use WiFi tether purposes. You can. That's also why I gave the cdma/ltd option as well.

Thanks for the shortcut since I keep forgetting it. I just gave it a try. I was able to switch to CDMA LTE only and my LTE switched back on from 3G almost instantly. Sweet! Looks like I'll be using this feature quite often. :thumbup:

I got nothin'
Neither the App nor the menu has provided 4G / LTE. Funny thing is that on 4.3 ROM's I don't get LTE, but 4.2 and lower it's a non-issue. Any ideas?
Funny thing is I have no APN's. When I try to manually add them they don't save.

I normally set it to WCDMA only but after a while it automatically switches to WCDMA preferred which results in a loss of data and the Roaming symbol. Any way i can set it permanently to WCDMA only? I'm in India btw...

Who uses their phone for talking? What is this 2005?
Yup, i set it to WCDMA only but for some weird reason it switches back to WCDMA preferred after a while. I do it using the same method you've described.
If I set my phone to lte cdma it goes to gsm as my days connection. Am I missing something here? Thanks

The forum you're posting in right now is the Sprint HTC One M7 forum. You have the M8, therefore go to the Sprint HTC One M8 forum.
With the 4636 menu what setting should I be choosing to stay in 4G? I'm in Chicago and I have terrible 4G to 3G handoffs all the time.

I would like my phone to be connected to 3g all the time in order to save battery... Is there any way to do this? Changing to gsm, CDMA in network settings still gives me hspa.
Thnx

HSPA is still 3G. If you want you can select to use GSM only and you will only get EDGE connectivity.
Dial *#*#4636#*#* , go to phone information, and there's a dropdown which by default says WCDMA preferred. Switch that to whatever else you need. Also, remember that this setting does not stick after reboot so you need to reset it to your preference each time after you reboot your phone.
Misread, sorry.
My phone is stuck in 2g. Everytime I switch to 3g or 4g my signal will die. Does anyone know what is the fix for this?

add correct APN settings for your carrier in Settings -> Mobile data -> Access point names -> menu -> New APN
I did that but still no signal in 3g and 4g.

Go to dialer, type *#*#4636#*#*, go to set preferred network type and make sure you select an option that includes CDMA, LTE and Evdo
