5g not working since iOS 16.4 upgrade

5g not working after updating to 16.4

Im having the identical issue except I’m on a 14 Pro Max. It’s maddening

It is not a cellular issue, same sim giving 5g on an older ios version

I am not able to access to the 5G after I upgrade my phone in 16.4.1. This issue as occurred recently and and the indicator is stuck as LTE and not showing any 5G. I have already contacted my service provider, and they have done the troubleshooting and the issue is only about the updated version of iOS.

Agreed l! I’m using iphone 12 and before update of 16 (major update) i was able to switch over 4g to 5g and even there was option to run 5g as standalone.

after updating 16 and .1, still not able to switch 4g to 5g.

When you do that, it causes the cellular network to resync with the capabilities of your phone.

That's why when you go from a cellular plan without 5G to one with, carriers tell you to do the same - shut off your phone, wait several seconds, then turn it back on.

I tried everything nothing works. In the voice & data options before there was showing standalone option and now it is not showing after updating to ios 16.4.1

please show how to solve it if there is any solution

Carrier Settings are definitely used in India (and everywhere else) - they don't lock your iPhone to a carrier, rather they are what allow your phone to be used with a carrier - they're essentially a preferences file for the network of the carrier you are currently using.

You cannot make that assumption.

5G service is a combination of the account and your device.

The SIM alone doesn’t define whether your phone will “see 5G,” but rather the phone’s frequency range dictates whether the cellular tower can provide the service.

As different models of iPhones support different service modes, you cannot just move the SIM and pronounce differences to be due to the phone unless it is the exact same model.

Same here - i have tried resetting the network settings, rebooted my phone many times, tried different wifi connections. My 4g/5g is just not working since the update and I have no clue how else to troubleshoot. Please help Apple team🙌🏻

Having same issue except my 5g & LTE barely works. I literally have to switch back and forth every 5 mins just to be able to use my phone. & while I’m on a phone cap, my phone won’t work regardless. Won’t get any notifications Facebook won’t work will constantly tell me i have no internet connection but soon as i hang up all the notifications come in

I have the latest iOS version: 16.5.1(c). Tried everything suggested by Apple Support and by other members of this chat. I have used multiple carriers across Europe. I always had 5G, but now I don’t. When Apple will fix this?

I have. They had me do a bunch of stuff. Reset my network on their end. Says everything looks great on their end.

This did not work

There are no carrier settings in India. Our phones are not tied to a cellular plan. We are free to change carriers as we like. This is a problem across all the carriers for all my friends in India.
