First of all, hello to everyone. I have finally registered after many weeks of browsing the forum, just to say thanks. This app is a lifesaver for me.

Any chance of being able to configure this so that it automatically switches to 2g only when you're connected to wifi and switches back to 3g when off wifi? Android does this by default.

Superb app!!! Many many thanks! I use this app daily as I do not have 3G coverage at home, but do at work.

Can you change the Icon to the current network settings?
So when you're on 3G, it will say 3G, and on 2G, it will say GSM, and Dual.... just Dual :p

Is it possible to make the switch integrated with the top bar menu like the bluetooth/wifi switch?

Thanks.

In my case, if I have my network set to dual, the button does nothing. I I manually change the network to 3G or 2G, the button toggles both modes. But it never sets the mode to dual.

As soon as I manually set the network to dual, the button stops working again.

There are the instructions on the project page https://projects.developer.nokia.com/2g3g

If you want to switch between 2G Only and Dual just run in the terminal this command: gconftool-2 -s /apps/2g3g/mode2 -t string "dual"

That's a shame, I loved that feature that extended the behaviour on the N900.

I would like to switch between all three modes: 2G -> 3G -> Dual -> 2G

Is it possible?

Thanks.

On PR1.2 the switch makes 2 copies of itself.

Check screenshot.

Hmmm. I have it installed on pr1.2 but I don't have that 2 icon problem.

The same happened to me on PR1.1.

Hi,

This is the first time I'm posting. I have pr1.2. I notice this happened to my phone after a reboot.

Thanks

Re: [Announced] 2G 3G mode switcher By Jacopo Guderzo
 
I had to reflash my phone (other issues) and the 2G / 3G icon was still there after the process. I had to install this app again and removed it in order to get rid of it.

Re: [Announced] 2G 3G mode switcher By Jacopo Guderzo
 
By the way, if you go to settings -> mobile network -> network mode you can choose between GSM, 3G or Dual. I can't remember if this setting was present in PR1.1, but in PR1.2 it s here

Hi,

I had the same problem after removing the program, but with the infamous green icon.

What I did was to delete 2g3g_harmattan.desktop file in /home/user/.local/share/applications/


Thanks

p.s. I reinstalled the program :-)

Re: [Announced] 2G 3G mode switcher By Jacopo Guderzo
 
Sorry for the issues.. to remove the green or double icon just delete the file /home/user/.local/share/applications/2g3g_app_harmattan.desktop, as flake said.

I made a new version that should fix the problem. I've also added a control panel in Settings > Application > 2G3G, so there's no need to use gconf anymore.

Installer: 2g3g_0.2.0_armel.deb

The first version (0.0.1) is also available on Ovi http://store.ovi.com/content/258639, I'll submit soon the new one

Great app, thanks!

Looking forward for the new version in Ovi Store.

Re: [Announced] 2G 3G mode switcher By Jacopo Guderzo
 
Great app. Thank you very much!

Would it be possible to clone this app for switching between different data roaming settings?

In Settings -> mobile Network the settings:

Data Roamig: Always ask/always allow/ don't allow
and
Allow Background connections when roaming: yes/no

are essential for people that cross borders frequently. It would be very nice if a simple switch existed that let you switch between two sets of settings for these to prevent unwanted data connections (i.e. you want internet but you want control over it). Right now the only option is to switch internet-connections off entirely which is a bit cumbersome.

Thanks for considering.

Now that you mention it, I support this too.

there's no app, like switcher app... btw is there an "internet connection" switcher app? homescreen icon switcher for settings->internet connection->internet connecton ON/OFF... when I'm at home I disconnect N9 from the net, as my pc goes online, and when going out, turning N9 back online... it'd really be nice to be able to do it one-tap... ?

Re: [Announced] 2G 3G mode switcher By Jacopo Guderzo

Re: [Announced] 2G 3G mode switcher By Jacopo Guderzo
 
Want to check if there's any possibility to make it switch between 2G and 3G by screen on/off (screen off -> 2G; screen on -> 3G or dual)?

Also an option to turn to 2G if the internet (data) traffic is less than...let say 100b/s?

Hey.
You can create an application to refresh the signal, click on the icon of the application and sign and immediately cutting back the signal.
Sorry for my English.
