Hello,
I want to turn the 3G connection off to save battery. However when i do so textmessages appear very late sometimes 4 hours late.
Does anyone know what the problem is?

Phone shows 3-4 bars of 3G and I get nothing but errors like , Page unavailable...this app needs data connection....etc. Sometimes if I disable mobile network and re-enable it it will work for a few minutes but then gone. Am I the only one ? I searched briefly . Nothing informative . Help please .
Call att and tell them to connect you to the specialist, i had the same problem and i was literally on the phone with him for 10 seconds and he fixed it

Sometimes it does similar to me. It will sit there and go from 3g to edge to 3g to edge. I've taken to just using 2g when I have wifi, then 3g when I want mobile data. Although now that I had the phone for a while, I kind of know where 3g is strong.

My cell standby is at 38% or higher at all times but time without signal at 0%.
This is the one thing always draining my battery and I was wondering if anyone had a solution for it.
If I use 2g network only it drops in half but I didn't get a 4g phone to sit on edge.

maybe its because if you have it set to "auto" then it switches back and forth between gsm and wcdma networks which may drain the battery(which im sure it does). since you have tried it on gsm only, try it on wcdma only and see what results you get. the only downside is if you drop out of a wcdma area, then it wont switch to gsm and you will get the limited service. where i live there is wcdma all around me so i leave it there unless i get on the road and travel then i put it on auto so i wont ever not have a signal.
How can I do that. In the stock rom it was in the settings menu but on cm7 its no longer there.

Hey this has been bugging me all day.
My network switches from 3G to H every few seconds almost even if I not moving. Is there a way to just pick it to one?

Don't blame me if you screw something up but goto your phone app and dial *#*#4636#*#* and begin to tinker.

Sounds like Fast Dormancy. It switches back and forth to save battery when there is no data use.
Suggest you do some reading on it!

It will change to H when using data, otherwise it will remain on 3G when idle. Mine also switches between the two regularly. I wouldn't worry about it.
Hey all, I know that switching from 3g to HSPA+ on the T-Mobile network Is intentional, but almost all the time between my pushing a button to send data and the device switching to HSPA+ there is usually a 20 to 30 second delay which isn't acceptable. Sometimes it doesn't even switch or when it switches no data is transmitted, which sucks if you are trying to use sip calling (VoIP), it ends up in a dropped call or about a minute of waiting before the call is actually answered. Does anyone have any solution for this or experience the same thing?
(Even now I can't post this because it won't switch... with full signal bars!)

My nexus 4 sometime does this, with full bar and the network showing HSPA+, it will take a minute or so to load a page. Even when speedtest show over 10Mb. Other time it usually work fine with the 3-5 second delay while it switch to HSPA+. I test my brother tmobile s3 side by side with my and his webpage load faster then my while my network switch from 3g to HSPA+.

I'm guessing none cares enough to answer. Or we're alone in our own world.

Fast dormancy is something that T-Mobile uses as a form of network management and also as a "battery saver". This is what your experiencing when your phone switches to UMTS (3G) when the data connection goes dormant.

I've had the delayed switch intermittently from every phone I've had on T-Mobile. It will come and go.
I chalk it up to a network issue and not a device issue.

Thanks for your answers guys, I understand it is how T-Mobile has configured their network. My only gripe is that sometimes it takes about a whole minute to switch. Thanks again.

I recently bought my wife a nexus 4 abs she's been having a problem where when she disconnects from wifi her mobile network won't connect, it says 4g but it's greyed out. I know she should still have connection but she doesn't, everything just times out. Only thing that fixed it was a reboot, anyone else experience this issue? And she's on stock rom, not rooted.

No worries it'll reconnect to the servers.

This only happens to me when my WiFi connection decides to disconnect! Both my Service and WiFi gray out when my WiFi does not work. I have a terrible at&t internet service! But other than that it works properly.

Does it just never turn blue after turning off wifi? Its supposed to turn off mobile data when wifi is on to save battery. It could just be an issue with your carrier
Well like I said a reboot does fix it, from what I understand it's just when disconnecting from wifi. The time interval was about 10 minutes and her mobile data still wasn't connected. We're on tmobile btw. I thought it might just be an n4 issue, I don't experience that issue on my one.
