Hi,
I'm using my Z1010 on a 2G and 3G network. As soon as 3G is available the phone switches to 3G, even if coverage is very low. I tried to select the 2G manually but after a few minutes the phones switches again to 3G.
I have firmware R1C.
Does anyone know if this has been changed in a newer firmware R1G, R1H ?
If there is a possibility to "lock" the phone on 2G or to pioritize 2G over 3G?
thanks

Don't think you can change it. It's network specified.

I went to the store and i had my phone updated to the latest firmware (R1H015)
But the phone still switches to 3G as soon as coverage is available, even if i manually choose the 2G network  (
Might ba a feature, not a bug  But IMHO this should be changed in a future firmware revision, if there is one. |

I think its good to always use 3G. but as ou say, even if the coverage is low, like 1 of 5 it switches. That is bad because at 1 of 5 at 3G no one can call you |

Yes. This issue gets better with R1G and R1H, but it will change from 2G to 3G, if the UMTS signal is available. All UMTS phones will do this automatically - don't ask me why.
