Cool.  I did not try with other surmanes.
Now I understand what it means with "more than 500 partial matches":
in the database there are more than 500 names _containing_ the
"band" string somewhere in the name, but there are fewer names with
"pong" in it (more than 700 "%band%" and about 200 "%pong%" in my
local database)

True.
Ok, plan B: I'll play with the connection and see if I can close
it after a given amount of downloaded KB (a mobile can't download
300 KB just to get the first 20 results).


Thank you!
