Though that still will not prevent the switch from happening while downloading happens beyond "Transfer" e.g. downloading podcast on gpodder, but it helps a little. =)
Not sure, but if I was to add some support it would have to be "global" not only for transfer.

The current solution is supposed to not change between 2g/3g if data transfer is on-going. However, Harmattan's platform libraries either do not support reporting of data transfer or it's buggy. This was the case at least in 1.2.

Perhaps I can take another look at it later. The basic problem is that when data transfer is on-going, platform reports "UnknownActivity". It's a while since I experimented with it, but I think you could not simply associate UnknownActivity = data transfer.
