Good intentions OP but it's like the blind leading the blind here. Half of ur post is completely unnecessary to achieve your end goal & the rest can be done on any custom ROM, most without a dial code or tricks. IF u even want to lock to WCDMA only, the only difference beween the two is with it locked to "only", you'll have no signal when ur out of WCDMA territory. I hate to be negative & really do appreciate the initiative but some ppl are getting kinda misinformed here. Even tho HenryBravo & a few others have tried to steer ppl the right direction but OP keeps arguing with ppl who know

Of course not. if you have a GSM phone it won´t work on CDMA networks.

WCDMA and CDMA are not the same.

WCDMA is the 3G connection for GSM networks.

CDMA is CDMA network.


I think this trick do not speed up your connection. Because Setting your phone up to WCDMA "only" or "prefered" will only give preferred or exclusive access to 3G/HSDPA/HSPA networks.

your speed depends on network type (EDGE, 3G, HSDPA, HSPA, LTE, etc), network trafic congestion, etc.

As you can see in my signature I got 6.67Mbps that time, I usually got between 2-4Mb. but in some other towns I got very low speed on the same type of network (3G) or even on higher speed network sucks a HSDPA.

so my girl has an unlocked inspire and is using it on the tmobile network. shes getting like under 100kb down in an area with great coverage. will doing this get her actual 3G speeds?

I believe no... You will never get 3g becuse of hard wear...

Nope. Best u can get with an Inspire on T-Mobile is Edge speeds. Hardware dependant
