Hello,
is there a way to turn on 3G but with disabled HSPA/HSDPA (3.5G). I only want 3G.
I know 3G is not as fast as HSPA/HSDPA.
For Galaxy S it works like this:

Thanks
You could try playing around with the service menu.

Hi all, I need help!!
At first I want to inform that I am came from Malaysia. I am using the local telco which only support up to HSPA only. Not HSDPA+.
With my friends which is using same telco as mine (Note 2 N7100), with speedtest apps, he can ping up to 6Mbps++ for download speed. While i am using nexus 4 only can ping about 1Mbps...which was done at same location. I am wondering whether i am getting hardware defection or else...since using the same telco....may i know any method that can be used to test whether i am getting hardware defection on my phone?or sim card prob?
you can buy prepaid sim from same telco to test it,hope this help

Hi there,
I bought online the 32gb version of Nexus 7 with 3g capability.
Actually I'm leaving in Australia using it with a Vodafone prepaid microsim with data bundle and the navigation is not fast like in mine galaxy nexus i9250. First of all during the internet navigation I noticed Nexus 7 switch between 3g and H always so i checked with network widget if there are differences in connection speed with Galaxy Nexus that is working with Vodafone as well.
I discovered unfortunately my nexus 7 is always in HSPA with a speed of 700-1700kbps and my Galaxy Nexus works in HSDPA o HASPAP with a speed of 1.4 Mbit - 14Mbit or 10Mbit - 20Mbit in the second case.
So is it possible to force the Nexus 7 to operate at higer speed ?
Thank you in advanced

I have exactly the same problem. On my galaxy nexus i get hsdpa and hspa+ depending network load. With the nexus 7 3g I only get hspa. I tested with two providers and both gave the same results.
Anyone have any ideas how we can get the nexus to use hspa+?
Running 4.2.2 with 1231_0.17.0_1205
When you make this comparison, are you using the same SIM in both devices? Same APN?

Exactly same thing here!
Navigation speeds seems ok, but downloads are slower than my smartphone on the same network.
According to my carrier, my 3G (HSPA, HSDPA, HSPA+) signal is located on 2100Mhz Frequecy...
Look the screenshots below:

I dont know if this is possible, bit I'm thiking that the tablet only works HSPA+ on 1700MHz or 1900MHz.
Because these frequencies are the most used in USA for 3G connection.
Can someone comfirm this?

Mine gets HSPA+ on 850 MHz from Bell Canada, but apparently only regular HSPA on Wind Canada's AWS band network.

That's interesting...
But you are really sure that in your region Bell uses 850MHz for HSPA+? Because they use the 1900MHz too...
Just asking...
Is there a way to email Google about this? Maybe a Software correction can fix this, because the frequency is supported, and maybe some upgrade on baseband (modem settings) can enable HSPA+ on other frequencies, like 2100MHz...
Regards!
I have a phone that can select bands between 850, 1900 and usually when I check, the default band it's connecting to is 850. I could cross reference when I have a moment to try it out.

Thank you very much...
Could you post a screenshot of the status screen, showing the HSPA+ connection?
I'm trying to colect informations to solve this issue...

At work I'm only getting HSPA:10 but that still translates to 8200/1900 speeds. I'll look into it when I'm home.

How I wish have that speeds on my devices...
In my smartphone with HSPA+, I got 5Mbps/1,2Mbps
On the Nexus 7 (regular HSPA) 2Mbps/1mbps
Unfortunately, the only device I own which is capable of selecting individual radio bands is not cooperating anymore with the SIM card that I use in my tablet. So I wouldn't be able to tell you whether it's running on 850 or 1900. Also, I could have sworn that in the past I have seen the tablet report HSPA+, but at the moment it is consistently reporting only HSPA. Nonetheless, I am still getting exemplary speeds.

Is anyone else experiencing extremely slow download speeds on their AT&T galaxy s4? On my s3 I was getting around 500 kb/s. On this I'm getting around 100 kb/s. Anyone else getting this?

So you have the unlimited data plan? This is a network issue not a phone issue

Hmm no I get 45mbps down at times, 20mbps usually tho. I live in the Chicago area so the problem might be a regional thing. What is it your downloading, or is it just a regular speed test?

Mine have been 3.5g speeds since I got it. 5-7 mbps. I did manage 30 down, but that was a one time fluke. At&t is no help.

Nevermind It seems to have fixed itself, my Google play store download speeds are still sluggish however, does anyone know why?
