I'm in an area with somewhat spotty 3G coverage. I used to leave my old iPhone on 2G/Edge most of the time, and when I needed data would turn on 3G. This saved my battery life quite a bit. However with the 4S (AT&T) I can't seem to find any sort of option to turn off 3G. Does anyone know if its somewhere else in the settings or if its been disabled?
Thanks!
iPhone 4S-OTHER, iOS 5, AT&T
I just did the update and I don't have the enable 3G button back. My phone will still be a paperweight for 8-10 hours a day.
What carrier are you on and where are you located?
Tucson, Arizona and I'm on AT&T.
Hey guys! I have the enable 3G button back!! I live in Lima, Peru; my carrier is Movistar (Telefónica)!
It's safe to update to 5.1, ENABLE 3G is back.
What carrier do you have? I updated and I don't have the button.
I am on Mobifone in VN, a GSM operator having 3G and 2G.
