Help 2g only mode?

[Caffeine_demon]

Hi,

Does the S4 mini have a "2g only" mode? (I find it makes network access a bit more realiable at times when on the move, or the 3g network is a bit busy)

Looking at the "network mode" screen under settings -> networks, which I used on my old phone - I only get the options "2g/3g/4g, 2g/3g. and 3g only", also - most of the play store "switchers" just give you quick access to the network mode screen.

The phone is on t-mobile in the UK

Have I missed an option somewhere? or is there another app somewhere which will do the job?

Thanks

On mine I have

Connections > Network Connections > More Networks > Mobile Networks > Network Mode

In there I can select from
LTE/GSM/GCDMA (4G and below)
GSM/GCDMA, (2G/3G)
GSM only (2G)
WCDMA only (3G)

I've also been using Power Toggles for a couple of years now, its very good.
Although I havent tried it for 2G, with a slight tweak from the default set up you should/may be able to add 3G/4G etc on/off options.
