Follow the below steps to set your data
connection to 3G (UMTS) ONLY :
1. From phone main menu keypad dial
*#197328640#
2. A series of selection window will
appear, and be sure to select the
following in order:
[5] BAND SELECTION >> [2] WCDMA
BAND>> [1] WCDMA ALL[] >> RAT :
UMTS_ONLY
3. That's it!! Now you are sure that you
are using the fastest data connection
available! I use mtn, glo, airtel n etisalat

are u running gennxt rom?

abiolag:

Always put it in wcdma/gsm, its the best.

when there is no h+network available it will switch to 2g unlike when you are on H+ only and won't be able to browse when h+ isn't available

haibe:

are u running gennxt rom?

nah...stick on stock rom will port to gennxt rom when I am on 4.2.2
