[Q] i want to go full edge

[nisssan18]

hi everybody, because of the huge battery drain,(because the phone stays always on H+), i would like to change it to go full edge, because as i always using a pc or near of one, edge is perfect, for the notifications and that stuff.

currently im using the "Super Nexus Build 4, and his kernel([email protected])",
when i go to options and enable the 2G option, it works, but after an hour or so, it goes back to 3g, and a couple of minutes later, it stays again on H+

i tried changing the Band selection, and selecting just GSM(because im from south america), but nothing changes...
any suggestion?

Thanks!

Turn off packet data

He wants data, just slow. But it won't help him.

OP, your problem isn't staying on 2G vs 3G, unless you have VERY bad 3G reception - switching to 2G only won't help. Look for the reason of your battery drain, check if your data connection is used excessively and by what app.

i always have good signal, but when i reach a point where the signal decrease, but alot, i mean, from 4 bars to 1, the edge connection goes into 3g, and therefore to h+ and stays on there.
dunno what else to do.

As Jack_R1 said, you need to find the cause of your battery drain. If your data connection is actively downloading something, then you have something running in the background that is pulling data constantly. Switching to 2g will not make a significant difference in your battery usage.

If your signal is bouncing between H and 3g or edge, this will drain your battery. A few roms have a built in toggle. TASKS aokp has it. I use it all the time and I can make my phone last 2 days with it being on edge
