really need "only 2g" option


Recommended Posts

Hey People,

I just installed MDC 3.2, but have noticed that there is no "only 2G" option. Is it possible to have my Hero use only 2G, cause it really tries to switch to 3G, but the coverage is bad.

Also I have updated radio, in case the option is linked with that.

Thanks in advance!

As MCR3.2 is based on a "3" (the mobile network) ROM, I don't think that option is there anymore. Paul may be working on something to fix this, but if you really need it I'd suggest going back to MCR3.1.

or just goto phone and punch in *#*#4636#*#* and scroll down to WCDMA preferred. and select GSM only. click turn off radio button. and wait and turn it back on. then press home to get back.

install anycut from the market, you can then set a shortcut to phone options and change between 2g/3g

Nice one.. Stupid question though, how do you set it to use both, which setting do i need?

I keep missing calls and messages whenever I loose 3G signal.

Thanks for the tip. I was disappointed when this option disappeared, and have wanted it back since.

It would have come in handy a few weeks ago when I was in a 2G-only area and needed to save battery power, but I'm happy to have it now.

Thanks again.

Excellent, thanks. Thought it might be but didn't want to starting missing more calls.
