Home Android How to force 2G/3G/LTE only mode in your Android Smartphone

Some times you are in a area where 3G signal is weak and your phone may constantly jump between 2G and 3G mode. It would be really annoying to browse or stream video in that situation.

Some OEM like Samsung provide a way to use 2G/3G only mode from their settings menu. But most OEM don’t.

Here is a way to access the hidden menu in all Android devices regardless of OEM.

Open the default dialer and enter the following code.

*#*#4636#*#*

It opens the testing screen. Select Phone information.

From there select your preferred network.

For 2G select GSM only.
For 3G select WCDMA only.
For 4G/LTE select LTE only.

    Thanks for this fantastic tutorial. Since Android 6 it has been infuriating not being able to force to 2g as 3g in my area is poor.

    The only problem is that when forcing LTE, calls don’t work :/
