can I disable GPRS data - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Can someone help me please : ) Thanks
The problem is network connection mode from GSM to WCDMA and opposite WCDMA to GPRS
Is It some way I can disable GPRS data connection, but keep WCDMA data connection + keep GSM signal as well
I will explain way : )
The problem is when Im driving my car and listen internet radio.
So when Im driving seem Im passing 3 Network Cells in my road to work
Each time when phone connecting to other cell first he connects to GPRS signal later he changes to WCDMA data Everything is logical maybe how the network cells works
But it is not good for me as the time phone goes to GPRS data / mode my radio stop working and before I have 3G signal maybe 5 minutes or more ….
1 When phone in GPRS mode and the radio on it is seams trying to stay for wile before connecting to WCDMA Maybe up to 5-10 minutes
2 When phone in GPRS mode and the radiooff phone in couple minutes changes to WCDMA
---------------
So one day I set my phone network to WCDMA MODE to see what happens and I can to believe that my phone all time keeps 3G ( WCDMA) connection without problem Internet radio work without stopping not crashing nothing at all everything perfect ….
BUT When I drive to my work place where is the signal very poor I have lost phone connection to network because my phone signal to only WCDMA MODE -- So to have signal in my work I need to change to GSM mode or auto mode
Is it some way I can have GSM mode + WCDMA MODE but without GPRS data connectivity or some way to block my phone connecting to GPRS mode data ?
Thanks for help

I have found on google play
Than someone have app for what I need The app name 3G Data Only
But I would like to know how manually I can disable 2G data ?
I do believe that in phone setting some way impossible to disable this + my phone rooted so I can what I need : )

3G + internet

hi guys, been having this problem for a while now, tried different radios-roms- tried to search on the net with no luck ... the thing is - if i connect internet via 3g, it disconnects from the network after a while (let say 1h -20mins , random) it shows so there is no networks available, i do have to switch to the flight mode, then to the phone mode and back to flight mode after that the phone starts searching for the network, if i keep 3g off i never get disconnected from the network
any ideas? anyone else is experiencing the same problem ?

Disabling HSPDA

Hello.
I am new user of Samsung Galaxy Spica in Poland. In our country in Play network, we have very big problems with HSPDA connection. HSPDA is not fully supported by network operator however this phone is still trying to connect in this mode causing interuption in internet connection. Is there any way to disable HSPDA and stay in 3G mode? With this problems we can't even download programs from market because of connection interruption. This is very frustrating.
Thanks for any help
ps.: sorry for my english, I am still learning
What version of android your spica has?
If 2.1 (Eclair), go to settings> wireless&networks> mobile networks> enable use only 2G networks.. That should allow only 2G connections.. Have your wifi network connected and download all u want from market..
Android v2.1 rooted Samdroid
But 2g is way much slower comparing to 3g... and i need 3g speed to my work. I am tethering net to my notebook while working.
Is there no way to just block HSPDA and leave 3g?
I had the same problem and I found that only on JCE (or JCF) firmwares 3G works OK. (seamlessly switches between 3G and HSDPA). I don't know why in all next firmwares there is a problem with using 3G in ours network ("Play"). This problem doesn't occur in other polish networks. Only in "Play" and on almost all firmwares, excluding JCE/JCF.
Does anyone know which files should I copy from JCE firmware to the newest version of firmware (eg. JH1), to have the latest fw. and 3G working correctly (like in JCE)?
alejka21 You are using APNdroid right ? if yes then change it to "SMODA"
in service menu i find option disable HSDPA.
*#*#197328640#*#* -> [9] Common -> [7] Factory test -> [5] HSDPA Status Check

Problem with Mobile Internet Connection

Hey forum,
i go away from home and i have no more wifi connection.
Then i suddenly get a connection to mobile internet (EPlus) first.
As i am in an area without a connection and i come back to EPlus, i can use my phone for telephone and SMS but i get no internet connection automatically.
I must use the airplane-mode to totally logoff and 5 sec later go out of airplane-mode. In this way i get the internet connection back.
My wife has the same problem with Incredible S and GingerSense 1.3.
Is this maybe a problem of EPlus? Or is there anyone with tve same problem and another provider?
Andreas
Perhaps it's your wifi giviing you problems, going bad.
Sent from a dream.
If the signal of your provider (in this case Eplus) is weak, it might not find it right away.
Also, try going into Settings>Wireless settings then under Network mode, check if it says GSM/WCDMA
This setting will try to connect to 2G or 3G whichever has the strongest signal, however if both are available, 3G will be selected.
