Was wondering if anyone seen slow toggle between networks on the note4. I realized that the phone takes a long time to switch between 4G and actual LTE or from 3G to 4G, etc.
Is there an app or Xposed module that will toggle faster or scan networks for the fastest Internet? Looking for something that doesn't kill battery life.

using cm6 vanilla froyo sept09
i notice that when it reverts to 1x the signal strength increases dramatically
id love to be able to toggle force it is it possible?
goto add widget and select the power control widget, once in there add the option of 2g/3g that should work.
edit: odd doesn't seem to be working. ass in the cyanogen q and a thread.
yeah it doesnt work neither for stock fw
what im looking for is pretty much switching from preferred evdo mode to cmda only as at my moms place 1xrtt is much stronger than 3g
Uh, why would you want 2g ONLY?
for one it has a stronger signal in certain places i frequent and it is better than roaming
slow data is better than no data
Hey guys,
I was wondering what the difference between GSM and UMTS is, according to the settings of the LG Optimus 2X I can select GMS or UMTS or both.
Couldn't find the answer anywhere so I'm asking it here.
How do you guys have the settings set?
Using T-mobile btw (Netherlands).
Thanks in advantage
Hi,
I think gsm mode is called as 2G, umts as 3/3.5G ... 2G mode is save your battery but the data traffic will be slower. You can switch between them in settings/wireless settings/mobile networks/ and check or uncheck the only 2G network (or something similar, I've tried to translate the menu names from Hungarian). However, you can find a simple app in the Market to do it easier:
2G-3G OnOff (CurveFish)
Yes, 2G mode saves battery and offers slower download speeds. You can reach decent speed with EDGE @ 20-25-30 k/s. So If you don't need the speed of 3G, you can set the phone to GSM only mode.
On the other hand with 3.5G you can reach very good speeds (800k/s here in Bulgaria), but it drains the battery faster, even there are no active transfers.
So basically what you are both telling me is, just put the phone on GSM/UMTS (automode). Because I often use 3G/HSDPA.
Definitely!
Guys, check out this Toggle 2G by TheMasterBaron:

It works for me. I flashed the signed version via OR and then installed the Notification plug-in apk so that I can control when it should or should not toggle from 2G to 3G,
bcs sometimes I turn on the screen to check the time or sms or use some non data related apps....so not necessary to switch to 3G when screen turns on.
I am not sure what rom You are using but on CM7 it's better to use 2G/3G toggle form notification bar (toggle 2G takes memory). To preserve battery life I am on 2G almost constantly. One thing to notice that 62KernelTweak speed up 2G noticeably. I am very rarely use 3G as 2G is fine with this tweak. I am form Poland, Play network.
Edit:
I don't noticed any improvements in wifi or 3G with 62KernelTweak
Hello, I am currently experiencing VERY slow browsing speed, loading a Google search is even a problem, I am on Cricket Wireless, using the 2g Ram version of the phone, I was wanting to know of any way I can disable the 4g (HSPA+) and just use LTE without losing ability to make calls. The phone automatically switches to 4g for better connection even though the 1 bar LTE is much better. Or at least improve the speed of the 4g HSPA+ a little I mean that is ridiculous.
Thanks for any replies i may get????.
Is there a way to quickly toggle between 2g 3g and 4g networks. In huawei there was a toggle but i can't find one here. Whats the fastest way to toggle here
