How to turn off 4G, since I don't have it in my area, but keep 3G on? I don't wanna mess around with the network settings, in fear of screwing something up lol.

Anyone have any idea? I'm sure if I turn off the 4G setting, my batter will last lots more longer. :p

thanks.

If you use tapatalk the signature option is under settings

Ah, I'm using it through chrome on my computer.

Go to Setting>More>Mobile Network>Network Mode>And set to CDMA Only.

I've tried that once before, and I've noticed that my 3g goes to 1X, and my network goes down. Why is that, when I obviously don't have 4G in my area, and I get less of the network of 3G?
Like, I don't have 4G at all, unless I go like 50 or 60 miles away lol

(this was about a week ago, when I was tinkering around, and restored when I thought I screwed something up).


Edit: I have CMA/EvDo auto - and - CMA w/o EvDo - EvDo Only, etc.
Also, I've never heard of "Tapatalk?"

Okay, thanks, man.

And the Settings/Options is for Tapatalk? Or the web-based forums? Also, I see lots of community things and what not, on google market. Which is the legit one? Could you possibly send me a link? There's alot of "Fakes" on Market. :\
