I would want to ask are there any apps/widgets that can place a short cut for me to toggle between 3G(HSDPA) and 2G and Auto? Basically it serve the same function as going into
Settings -> Wireless and Networks -> Mobile Network Settings -> Network mode -> Changing between WCDMA, GSM and GSM/WCDMA auto.
So far, the closest I can get to is some apps, such as extended controls, bring me to the Mobile Network Settings page, which then I would have to press Network Mode and change it from there. I have used CM7 for a brief while but reverted back to a sense rom after a month, as I prefer using some of the sense stuff. CM7 have a Network Mode toggle in the quick switch and it works exactly as I wanted it to.
But now I'm on ARHD, which like every other sense rom, doesn't have Network Settings in the quick settings menu. Hence, I am wondering if there are any apps or widgets that allow you to instantly toggle between WCDMA, GSM and GSM/WCDMA Auto. Does anyone know of such an app?
Try a search in Market.

Upgraded to 2.1 and first impressions are rubbish!
Why get rid of the enable/disable Data from the dragdown bar. How do I do this on 2.1?
Like this.
Go into settings > Wireless & network > Mobile Networks > Data Traffic.
After selecting / de-selecting that, the option will then appear in the drag-down bar.
The same way you'd do it on 1.6.
But that's not disabling 3G, that's just stopping apps from using your credit. To truly disable 3G, you'd have to change network mode to something like GSM, or 2G (I don't get that here in Australia, but I think it might be an option in other countries, I'm just guessing).
And... You'll learn to love 2.1 if you downgrade to 1.6 again, and find that your phone is performing horribly.
or just install curvefish apn switch
Or add the data widget to your home seen........

I use "3G widget" : it works realy good.
You can start / stop 3G manualy or let it turn it automatically on / off when you light up / off the screen.
I don't know why but it put 2 icons in the apps... useless for a widget to even have one when there are no properties to change.
I'm using the Extended Control app to activate some of the phones functions.....However, I need to be able to quickly toggle Mobile Networks on and off without going through the settings menu. Extended Control has a function to toggle APN, but this doesn't affect the Mobile networks.
Can anyone help me out here please.
Thanks.

I'm using Direct Mode but it doesn't switch on Mobile networks. Can't get my head around the rename APN mode.
try this
you need to first manually set in the settings->wireless and networks, the mobile network flag to on; after that set the mode to apn toggle (check that your apn settings are correct, they might have been modified!)
your extend control will work now to activate/deactivate mobile network

Did someone know how and can i set somehow WCDMA in options.When i using older version android(2.3 ) i have to choose in network mode WCDMA only.That is very important for my internet .Net works for me and now,but very slower than usualy.Can someone know how can i do that,or what version of roms have this in options ?
Go to settings - CM settings - interface - notification power widget - widget buttons - check 2G3G... scroll down to network modes and select 2g3g only ... now just click on the notification widget to switch between gsm and wcdma..

I want to know is there any trick or hack to bring network selection option in settings just like in htc titan.
Good afternoon.
could you tell me if there is a solution to have the choice to stay on the 3G network and not only on the 2 (2G/3G)? because when I had my gs3, I stayed more on the 3g when I chose the option 3g only. thank you.

CM 10 has this feature as a quick toggle (link to ROM dev thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020859).

Go to the dialer. Type *#*#4636#*#*
Choose: Phone Information
Scroll down and change "WCDMA Preferred" to "WCDMA only"
No more 2G. Until your reboot. Then you'll have to do those steps again.
Or you can go to the dialer -> then type in *#*#4636#*#* -> then choose phone info, next, scroll down and you'll see a rectangular box that has "WCDMA Preferred". Click on that, a list of options would then appear.
2G only=GSM Only
3g only=WCDMA Only
2g + 3g=WCDMA Preferred or GSM/WCDMA (Auto)

thank you all for your tip, but I did not really want to install a cyanogen rom on my vanilla because rootbox suits me very well and the thing * # * # 4636 # * # * I already knew, but just the fact of power on / off connection ensures that the default setting revert ...
