Hey guys!
I have a W880 and the area I live in has patchy 3G reception, so the phone constantly switches between 3G and 2G, lowering battery life. I use 3G quite a lot so do not want to lock it down to GSM. Is there any way i can make it stay on 3G? An application or something? As it has no UMTS only option under the network setting like my samsung did.

UMTS is great, but its GSM is still the default 1 in most areas

i dont think you can but even if you did then because you dont get UMTS coverage everywhere your phone would lose all signal when there was no UMTS

I had to debrand my w950i to use this option. Once i did the option appeared.
