nexus 4.1.1.....i have a connection problem. in my area i can get up to h connection from 1 to 0 bar. sometime i get up to 2 bars.

so most of the time it is only g or 3g. how do i get my phone to stay on a 3g or h connection. on the connection setting i could not find it.

go for either GSM or HSPA+.. dont auto it... another thing is... i remember my nexus is with the word 3G and not HSPA.

So untick the use 2g connection only.

but anyway. i dont find it useful using 3g... 2g give me more battery life.

my phone connection setting dont have a preference setting. so i think it is only auto set.

r u kidding me? nexus dun have setting for network? lololol

now now, don't jump to conclusion when u don't open up all ur hidden books.
itz there, and the truth will set u free.

btw, 2g usually shows low connection and even 3g, but try opening a webpage, it will skyrocket a few extra bars
itz part of the power saving features of choosing itz line.

set to WCDMA only if u wan to force 3g only

thank u..now i get a 3g connection a h sign all through...

Thanks. It worked. Just to detail out to those who faced similar problem. What i did was

1. Install latest Gnex toolkit v9.0
2. Launch it, choose the version of my Nexus which is option 6, android 4.1.1 (build JR03C)
3. Choose option 6 (Flash recovery (CWM Touch, TWRP Touch or Stock)
4. Choose option 3 (Flash Stock Recovery)
5. Put my phone into Fastboot mode and click continue
6. Once done it will auto reboot to phone
7. I then go to Settings>Apps>All>Google Services Framwork and click clear data
8. Go to settings>about phone>update and click check update
9. It shows update to 4.1.2 available and now I am able to do OTA update to 4.1.2.

Thanks again to Vernon. I hope with this I have go back to stock rom and in the future update I can still do OTA.

Thank you for sharing your troubleshooting steps. Meaning that you only able to do OTA update using only stock rom?

everything stock (ROM, Kernel, Recovery)

Able to update via usb?

Unfortunately Settings has stopped working

same... i think it doesnt work for 4.1.2 again? lol!

what do u mean update via usb?

Are u using CNA?

to access that go to setting> developer option > device option
