Hi all...I have searched everywhere and cannot seem to find out if its possible to force the 8525 to GSM mode. I have been experiencing massive amounts of dropped calls today on the UMTS network.

Thanks for the help.

Checkout XDA-Developer's website for the Bandswitch program.

On the non-Cingular versions of this phone one can adjust it to GSM only in the phone settings. Cingy just chose to hide this setting. The feature can re-enabled on the 8525 with the bandswitch cab described, or with the tweak described at the link below under "Enable/Disable GSM/UMTS Band Selection"
