The same problem. EDGE is OK, no anu problems with connections and data recieving, but 3G is unstable very musch, very difficult to surf. In comparison, I have another phone ASUS from the same carier and it is working great, but NOT IPHONE 5!!!!

This works for me..

1. Go to Settings -> Carrier and disable the 'Automatic' feature. Then wait a few seconds and select your carrier.
2. Sometimes after choosing your network manually it will already have 3G again.
3. Enable the "Airplane Mode"
4. Disable the "Airplane Mode"
5. By this time 3G should appear already.
6. Go back and Change AUTOMATIC carrier
7. 3G appear normally after network appears.
8. Test reboot several times to make sure.

Hope it works for everyone else, I have 3 iPhone 5 here (all 3 updated to ios 6.1 one after another via itunes full restore not update only, apple please take note) on the same network but only 1 got this problem and the other 2 seems better than before.. Dont know what is happening.. ?!!

Same problem in Spain (Movistar).

BigRed77's workaround doesn't work for me.

Apple, please help!

I'm using LTE here in S'pore. After update, my iphone 5 no longer surf at LTE speed. More like 'edge' speed even though the signal shows 'LTE'. Intermittently it speeds up, but most of the time, it is slow... Regretted updating..

I found out what is the cause of the no 3G signal..mits because you off the 3g data, the nxt time you try on it back its just maintain at edge.. So have to the carrier automatic-manual workaround to get 3G back again.. apple please do something.. **** lazy to do the workaround everytime..

I fixed the problem adding manually the APN of my carrier: Settings > General > Cellular > Cellular Data Network

It works for me in automatic and manual mode. My carrier is Movilnet from Venezuela

Same Problem in Russia. With different operators...With every iphone 5 in the house. Very disappointing update. There is anyway to turn back on 6.0.2?

Same problem here in Saudi Arabia. 3G signal became very weak and intermittent. Most of the time it is E

Carrier is STC

Regret to update

Apple don't read your complains here !!

Every body should complain to Apple on this link

http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

Same here, i updated to 6.1 and signal bars are crying. battery drain is another issue. This version really *****. I dont even have the option to turn off the 3g looks like its turn on by default and we can not turn it off. I am not even using the LTE.

I think you are correct but still there are Apple employee who should forward this thread since so many are asking for the problem but you are right people should also send a complain to the feedback page.

thanks for sharing.
