Turning 3G Off
I've tried to install Duttys 3g manager before but have had problems as blank boxes have come up on the screen, and then even when i uninstall it, my comm managers still all blank and i have to do a hard reset to sort it out. I've used Bandswitch but arent keen on it. Any one know of any commercially available programs to do this?

Re: Turning 3G Off
That looks good RickGM, but I think robertalbert192 is looking to turn 3G off, but keep GPRS on. Is that right?

Re: Turning 3G Off
Perhaps a new rom? extreme I know but some of the newer roms have an option in the comms settings to turn off 3G can't comment further as I have a Hermes but I have this option and it works well conserving major amounts of battery life.

Re: Turning 3G Off
Take a look at phoneAlarm. You can turn 3G/2G on or off based on time or cell (phone tower) location.

Re: Turning 3G Off
YOu can turn off 3G in the phone settings as well, by switching it to GSM... Unless I missed that being posted in the thread earlier!!

Except on most Windows Mobile 6 Standard (i.e. non-touch screen) devices.
