Heya. I own SM-G9980/DS. Why does my cellular indicator always showing even tho the Mobile Data is OFF. As you can see the 4G indicator is present in both of the sim.

It's just showing you that you're connected to a 4G network. No data is being transferred. When that happens, you'll see up and down arrows for data traffic
If the 4G icon bothers you, you can disable it by downloading quickstar from good lock and select which icons your want to hide from status bar.

Indicator showing are network not mobile data. Mobile data indicator is with up& down arrow. Anyway you can use GoodLock to remove these icons. You can use NiceLock if your country doesn't support GoodLock natively.

Sadly. The feature I am looking for is not available in Good Lock. I just want to hide the 4G indicator when I'm not connected using cellular data. It seems that its how supposed to be with SM-G9980. I have SM-G998U before and it wasn't like this. On that US variant the 4G icon is actually LTE. And the 5G icon looks stylish.
Hi, did you find any solution to this ? I have the same issue in my s22 ultra..

1. When Im in a strong WiFi area with 3g/4g enabled and mobile data says "disconnected" will this impact my battery more than if u just left WiFi on only?
2. Does a nfc toggle exist in the play store?

You can install eqs mod or a Rom with it built in.
but it's ok to eat fish cause they don't have feelings.....
1. Yeah, I'm pretty sure "disconnected" uses more power than "off". WiFi does that, so logic dictates mobile data does that too. But I could be wrong.
2. Have you tried power toggles? Just stay away from their data and LTE toggles. People have reported that turning off LTE with the power toggles destroys the radio. (Permanently turned off). Just use the other toggles. Or you could use Floating toucher. Check it out. Its hard to explain what it is...

How would it "destroy" the radio
Its not confirmed, and many people have been able to toggle data/LTE with no problems.
The radio would essentially turn off and never turn back on.
I dunno. You can go ahead and try it. Chances are nothing bad will happen. If it was so common, then we would be seeing a lot more of it.
I have been using an app the last few days that has really helped me at work. Where I work, I get very poor LTE signal. It constantly struggles to connect and frequently drops to 3G before reconnecting to LTE. This not only sucks when trying to maintain a consistent data connection, but also drains the battery faster. I’ve been using an app I found on the Play Store called Network Mode and changing the preferred network type to “TD-SCDMA, GSM/WCDMA, CDMA, and EVDO” while at work. By taking LTE out of the equation, I get a consistent 3G data connection and it has also improved my battery life. I change the network type when I get to work, and change it back before I leave. Anyway, just thought I would throw this out there in case there are others who are in the same boat.
Also, if anyone figures out a way to automate that process (with Tasker or something) let me know.

I'm sure you can change from 4G to 3G in settings of phone. That's what I did because I can't get 4G in UK so I changed to 3G settings. Moto Maxx.

That may be true on Moto Maxx. Unfortunately that is not an option on Verizon Droid Turbo.

Hello,
in my office, the network signal isn't the best. I have 1 bar at 4G, 2 bar at 3G and 3 bar at 2G. So the phone choose 2G all the time, but 3G is possible and fast. On my old Huawei, i had the network mode "3G only", but the realme has only "3G/2G auto", so it's still choosing 2G.
Is there any Possibility to force 3G or 4G?
I already read of the Settings Database Editor and installed it, but didn't find a proper settings item.
Also i tried to get in the engineering mode by dialing *#36446337# but it didn't work.
Thank you for your support.
Hello use this code on dialer *#2323#
Sorry, doesn't work. Nothing happens.
on the Chinese version of the phone appears the choice of network type
With the app "Force 4G LTE" i come into the screen "about the phone", where i can change the network type to "LTE/WCDMA only".. but it's full of ads...
i dont see any options to choose from as well (like 3G or 4G connection) default is just showing 4G

thanks for this I managed to force mine to 2G onl. any other codes you can share?
Force 3G only/4G only on realme device
I am using realme 5s and I have the same problem but finally I found a solution. You can download an app named "4G LTE SWITCHER(No ads)" from playstore and as the name suggests it has really no ads and it works for me!

The icon indicates that your phone is using SIM 2 for Mobile data. If you disable auto data switching, it'll go back to using SIM 1 for Mobile data provided you've selected it as the preferred SIM in settings.
Well... Not... default data is SIM2 always, no matter of this setting.
It seems that that one appears because 1st SIM is using data from 2nd one for "data calling". Thought this would happen only if no carrier signal but it seems not. Saying this because noticed the lockscreen network info saying something with using the other line data for calls... Could catch it because...Now it disappeared completely and all back to normal...
Think I figured it out. It looks indeed to be an indicator that line 1 works through data connection of line 2 (via WiFi calling method). I forced today line one to be out of coverage (tried manual registering to another network) and now, when there is no coverage, the sign mentioned in first post is back.
So looks like for whatever reason the other day I was out of coverage for sim 1. Weird though, considering both sim are same operator.
You can see in the attach it says it uses back up data

Do you still have this phone? Any chance you can use adb to check what setting is changed when the "Auto Data switching" toggle is switched on and off?
Good afternoon XDA!!! I was getting 5g no problem and I received the notification for the C.46 update today. After updating 5g isn't even listed in the "Preferred network type" anymore. I'm on T-Mobile in the states model CPH2173, anyone else have this happen after the update?
Thanks!!!

If I go under "advanced settings" under mobile network all that shows up now is the "use mobile data during calls" option which isn't even able to turn on. No Smart 5g option

Did that and same thing, only gives max 4g/3g/2g option and no "Smart 5g" option anywhere.
So I'm wondering if T-Mobile is restricting phones from using 5g now like AT&T is
If you already flashed with ( CPH2173export_11_C.46_2022021122370096.zip ) Then should be fine,
& Yes its could happens, Such 12Pro does not show 5G due to unsupported 5G (SIM)

That's what I'm thinking is going on because it showed 5g on the .45 firmware and now it's gone so I'm guessing it is just stupid US Carrier restrictions for 5g .
Enter this code *#54794824#
Then enable 5G
How are you for finding those ussd codes? Any new ones?
Here's the one actually working on my 3X Pro:
*#6776# Info
*#899# Engineering mode
*#800# Logs
*#888# Hardware Revision
*#54794824# Toggle 5G on/off
