Hi OP3 Users,
I am unable to find a setting to change the Network Mode for sim 2 in the stock (non-rooted) 3.1.2 firmware. Is there any way to change that.
SIM 1 has that setting; namely "Preferred Network Type" (and has options "LTE Recommended / 3G / 2G")
Also, i tried using the *#*#4636#*#* code, but it shows nothing but "Testing" and has no options to choose in it.
Any ideas on how we can resolve this?

I just received my Nexus One which I ordered through the Google Developer program (Brightstarcorp) and I'm not able to get it working with the Bell Mobility network for either voice or data
I have a signal bars on my N1 with a Bell Mobility SIM card but it dosen’t works.
When I slide down the notification bar it say "Bell" and try this to get it working.
I have tried all solutions and have the recommended settings on the phone (also running Froyo 2.2.1-Build number : FRG83).
- I tried my SIM to another Bell phone and it works.
- I tried another Bell SIM in my N1 and it did not work.
- I'm using an active data plan card not a prepaid card.
But it works with Rogers or Fido
I tried the following :
1.Go to Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Network Operators: after about 1 minute I see network the currently available Bell
I click on Bell and see a signal not working.
2. Go to the dialer and type in *#*#4636#*#* this bring a hidden menu
3. tap on "Phone Information" It list the current network as Bell and also showing the IMEI and the Phone number. The IMEI and phone number are correct.
4. Hit the menu button and press "Select radio band" and click on "Automatic" .
5. Still not working I make sure radio band is set to "Automatic" then go back to the previous screen and scroll all the way to the bottom. Click under "set preferred network type" and choose through until I find one that works 1. WCDMA preffered or WCDMA only or GSM auto (PRL) it takes a few seconds from the time I click until the settings take place, just watch the signal bar at the top of the screen until it changes. Even try the "unknown" network type at the bottom of the list if the others don't work.
All the above fails.
For those of you out there who have successfully activated the Nexus One on the Bell network could you let me know which version of the phone you have.
Thanks for your suggestions.
well i am sorry to say but i dont think that the phone will work with Bell. the dev phones as far as i know are all AWS. so the only way it is going to work is if you get a rogers sim and use it on edge or a wind/moblicity sim and you can use 3G. bell does not have an edge network to back up on.
That's true. Bell/Telus has only the 3g network. The developer phone will not work. It will use edge/2g on Rogers/Fido. And will be fully supported on Wind or Mobilicity.
Nexus One with a Bell Mobility it dosen’t works!!
About Videotron?
Thanks
Hi all, the question i'm about to ask has been asked on the internet before but i couldnt find any satisfactory explanation for it. I wanted to change my Preferred Network Type from 3G to 2G as 3G reception is not available where i live , i read on some forums that using 2G only setting can prevent the phone from searching for 3G network intervally which may save some battery. Now, i'm confused about which mode to choose for 2G , i dialed *#*#4636#*#* and went to Phone Information, then clicked on "Preferred Network Type" which, by default, was on WCDMA Preferred, What option should i change it to? GSM Auto or GSM Only? my phone is an unlocked htc M7_U so i cant choose the GSM/WCDMA/LTE Option (it would hog even more battery i think) . Also , can changing this Preferred Network Type have any effect on anything else besides the 2G/3G Network options? i mean, is it safe as long as i change the Network type to the correct option? Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks.
I think gsm only mode.

should be fine setting to "GSM only", setting it to "LTE/4G only" could make problems, because most carriers don't support calls over LTE (mine would be an example: so if I set to LTE only, I can't make or receive calls, so when it's on auto, it automatically changes to 2G/3G during a call)
You can also just change the setting in:
Settings -> Mobile data -> Network mode -> GSM Only

Dear All,
I am facing issue in toggling "Preferred network type" after installing GravityBox xposed module. It is stuck at 2G only.
While have written detailed post here at GravityBox [KK] thread, thought of checking with you guys also.

Please confirm if you guys can emulate same and confirm if issue is there or not.

Thanks for the feedback... Assuming that GB [KK] installed and you are taking about this selection from Quicktiles, pls confirm following:
1) Data enabled on which Sim 1 or 2?
2) Are you actually able to connect to 3G mode - H/H+ icon in status bar?
3) If data enabled in Sim 1, then what is seen at "Preferred network type" 2G or 3G?
Preferred network type can be reached here:
Settings > Wireless & Networks > More ... > Mobile Networks > Preferred network type
1)Sim 1 (Sim 2 cant connect to 3G, just 2G)
2)Yes, H+ when good signal, 3G when not so good.
3)In the device options it's 3G,
but sometimes the "Tile" says 3G/2G - the device options still 3G; this deppends on the network.
I tested this option a lot (Moto G 1 & 2), and the "Smart radio" too, and they worked very well, I just dropped them when I created some profiles in Tasker that took network too.

factory reset would solve your problem
had the same issue (when i used quicksettings toggle),
i did a factory reset and and now i can change 2g to 3g and vice versa
installed gravity box again and everything seems to be working, though i do not dare to use network toggles in quicksettings again.
good luck
Hello
Now that we have root I would like to change my network mode, my S6 edge is only in LTE/GSM by default.
I don't have the network mode menu in settings, and if I go to *#*#4636#*#* I can see all the possible settings, but only a few of them are enabled. (GSM only, LTE only, WCDMA only, LTE/GSM), but not the one I want LTE/WCDMA/GSM, when I select it, it goes back to the option previously selected.
Anyone else dealing with this?
Will root help us to find a way to change this?
Thank you
your problem is the same to my s6 SM- g920F
Try you tube video " How To Change Network Bands on Any Samsung Phone Without Root" haven't tried myself
Hello,
I have a Verizon Note 8 with Service provider SW ver. VZW/XAA/VZW instead of VZW/VZW/VZW on bootloader v4. The problem I have is under Mobile Networks, I dont have an option to change to Global or LTE/CDMA. My Preferred network mode is set to CDMA/EVDO/GSM/WCDMA. My only options under Preferred network mode are LTE/3G/2G, 3G/2G, 3G only, and 2G only. There is no option for LTE/CDMA.
Has anyone encountered this issue with Verizon phone?
Is there a solution to this problem?
My issue is that I cannot send MMS messages although everything seems to work.
Thanks in advance.
