Hi folks,

I typically use HSPA (Auto mode) to help preserve battery life. I just updated to Jelly Bean last night and noticed I no longer have any HSPA options on my GS3.

Under Network Mode settings I only have:
LTE/GSM/WCDMA (Auto mode)
GSM only
WCDMA only

I am 100% sure I had HSPA options before...

I am with Telus, in Canada.

Very strange. Any insights as to why this option disappeared? Anything I can do to get it back?
 
Same thing happened to me!
I stuck with HSPA for the sake of battery life and really didn't need the LTE...
hopefully someone has a response out there or a way to get the 4G option back.
 
Anyone rang the carrier?
Maybe your APNs have been knocked off a bit?

Unbranded international s3 with Official JB. Paisley, Slotland, Western Europe :beer:
 
Are you sure? I ran a speed test and the speeds weren't very good...floating around 2mb vs the 5+ i use to get on 4G...

I haven't done a speed test, but I'm in downtown Calgary. But that setting gives me a 4G icon in the status bar - the first gives me LTE, the middle one gives me no signal at all.
