How to switch from 4g to 3g(or 1x)

[elcocho852]

Ok so I was messing with my phone and some other apps and I made my 4g go down to 3g with some apps..

First you have to go to the market and download two apps, the first one its called lte on/off and the second one its called restart connection..
When you have those apps ready open up lte on/off and go all the way down to where it says
lte/evdo/cdma/auto and change it to cdma auto prl then press home then go to the other app called restart connection and it will restart your connection when it's done restarting (this will take about 5 seconds) you will either have 3g if you have prl 3025 or 1x if you don't have it...

This works for me and I hope it works for other people.....

I think you can do it with one app (LTEon/off) just change the settings then with airplane mode on and off and it should reset your connection. Haven't tried it but I did that with another phone and it worked.

Okay tried it and it works....but, how do you get 4g back....I have not been able to get the settings right, and the 4g signal back on. Help! (please)

To fix it you have to go to the lte on/off app and change it from cdma auto prl to lte/evdo/cdma/auto then go to the start connection app (its not going to change.. I know that) but then turn your phone off and then on... I haven't found a fix with out turning your phone off but ill try to find a fix..

I have prl 3026 and only have 4g and 1x. 3025 has 4G same like 3026 plus 3g?
How can I change this? thanks in advance

Does really work. Let me try now...

1. Open the Phone app.
2. From the Phone tab, dial *#*#4636#*#*
3. Tap the Phone information menu.
4. Scroll down to the Set preferred network type setting and set it to CDMA auto (PRL).
5. Press the Home button.


I dont know if you need a reboot after change.

Yes you have to reboot after you go down from 4g to 3g.to go back to 4g you have to reboot. that's my conclusion

Uhm. That will surely kill the battery span..
