Thanks for the cyanogen mod g2 forum section for this tip!



So i found this method on CM7 Website somewhere
for my Google G2, works on most phones

Lets you lock WCDMA ONLY on your device so you are
always on a 3G/4G (HSPA) tower say bye to E! or anything else.

Make sure you always the newest radios

Dial *#*#4636#*#* on the dialer.
Select Phone Information.
Scroll down to "Set Preferred Network Type".
Select WCDMA Only. and hit home and reboot,


ive used it on my g2
mytouch 4g
inspire
atrix
evo
and more!!
jsut try it
Myt4g runs at 4-5mb In orlando FL, with latest radio


hope it helped

so what happens when you leave the 3g/4g area or go to an area where there is only edge? do you just lose data all together? i would rather have edge than have no data at all

it will connect to edge and G etc.

Beat me to it. +1

What's our latest radio?

My phone was set to this when I tried to change it. I get 5-6mb. Good tip nonetheless.

Nice! Make sure to hit the back button instead of home or it won't save the changes.

Isn't this just setting 3g only from the power widgets menu in cm7? I Dont even bother with 2g anymore since I live in the city. i barely run out 3g signal where I live so it's not that bad

I can not select WCDMA Only, it will not select it. I can select WCDMA Preferred. Is that just as good?

Also, when I do select WCDMA Preferred, if I hit the back key it sets back to GSM only. If I hit the home button after I select WCDMA only it is still on WCDMA only if I check again, but when I reboot and check once again it is on GSM only. I can not seem to get this to stick.

Thanks for the tip, will give it a try
