Root Galaxy-s i9000 3G problem

3G id probably off to save battery

Go to:

Settings--> wireless and network--> Mobile networks--> Network mode-->(sellect GSM/WCDMA)

GSM will allow you to use EDGE/GPRS (phone shows E or G)
WCDMA will allow you to use 3G/HSDPA (phone shows H or 3G)
GSM/WCDMA will allow you to use 3G/HSDPA when its avaliable and EDGE/GPRS when 3G/HSDPA is unavaliable

just so you know HSDPA is faster than 3G
 
Hi there,
After searching the net for some time for an answer to my question it looks like here is my best bet. I've had problems with my Galaxy S' GSM & WCDMA. When I change the setting to 'Auto' the phone doesn't seem to automatically choose the best network setting & I end up missing many calls while in the house because the phone stays using 3G. When I then change the setting to GSM only, Calls & txt come through normally & I recive messages saying that I've missed calls. When I put the phone on WCDMA only I can't make or recieve calls in the house. Can anyone help me as to why the phone won't change automaticaly as it's supposed to?

Thanks, Tom.
