If your network doesn't provide proper coverage for 3G, then the signal will drop easily so your phone switches back to GSM/EDGE automatically. Know that 3G use bands of higher frequencies, which tend to attenuate more easily than GSM band.

I also notice when 3G is there then swtch the network in settings from "GSM/3G Networks" to "GSM only" then back to "GSM and 3G", 3G Icon doesnt come out. I really need to use another sim with different network with 3G then get back my sim

By default, the phone will search for GSM network first. It's normal. I think some network put 3G as preferred service, so the phone knows that it's available more quickly.
