How to force 3G???

[BlueSami]

So every time i leave a place where I am on WIFI, sometimes it can take up to 3-5 minutes before 3G service will kick on? anyone know why this happens?

Its frustrating when it tells you there is no connection.

How is the signal in your area? Perhaps something is blocking the signal.

Settings> Wireless & networks> Mobile networks> Data enabled -- uncheck and then recheck this box to force reconnection.

Looks like i might do that..

This happens "almost" everywhere i go. so its not that i don't have service.
It just likes to take its time to load up 3G from WIFI

I've had my phone fight me for twenty minutes with 1 bar and a signal strength of -101DBm even though I was driving under a tower because I'd been in a no-signal area. Reboot the phone and BLAM, all is well, but coming out of the dead zone I had no love from Verizon.
