Samsung smartphones, by default, assign the best possible network mode to them. And in most situations, it works flawlessly as the phone operates on the best network available. But when it comes to this band selection scenario, some sort of customizability can be helpful for some users. If you are someone who knows there is a particular network that is primarily congestion-free in your area, then switching to that band would get you even better results.

But unfortunately, this band switching functionality is unavailable in the native settings menu. But for people who want to switch bands, a couple of options are available. Firstly, they can use a third-party application, or they could do it via ADB commands. And in this article, we will discuss both of them. So without any further ado, let’s get into it.
How to Enable Band Selection Mode in Samsung?
Based on your requirement and choice, you can pick any of the methods mentioned below to use band selection on your Samsung smartphone.
Use third-party applications:
- Download and install the Samsung Band Selection application from the Google Play Store.
- Once the app is installed, launch it on your phone.
- Now, tap on the Launch Band Selection button.
- After this, tap on the hamburger icon in the top left corner of your screen and then select Band Selection.
- A list of available bands will show up. Tap on your desired band from the list and then turn on the toggle for Selection at the top-right corner.
This is it. Your phone’s network is now coming through the band you just selected on the application. This is a simple process, and we recommend you go for this method if you are unaware of how ADB commands work. But if you often use ADB commands and do not want any extra third-party applications on your smartphone, you could go for the second method.
