Q: 3G Issue IOS 6.1 - Iphone 5

Still no reply from Apple about IP 5 3G issue. They only fix for 4S, why? really don't understand what happened with Apple. So disappointed

Apple is loser. I had absolutely lost 3G connection and EDGE.....puu puuuuuuuuuuuu

I kinda regret switching from the 4s to the 5 , should have got myself the note 2 or another android device.

I have to like reset the network settings 20 times a day just to get the 3G up and running.

Sigh....what is apple support doing ..... Sleeping, or like other posts here, they have just decided to ignore us !!

Darn !!!!

any update dear ????/

ShyamSharma, I am having same situation with you using Maxis changing from 4S to 5. Just started to put Manual in Carrier Setting instead of Auto, the situation much better at least I toggle Airplane mode I can get back 3G not like in Auto Carrier mode which I have to reboot. Just tested this mode 1 hour ago and works everytime in same location, have to test more areas to know how efficient this is, toggle when no 3G happens to 4S as well. Apparently Malaysia telcos have such problem with Iphone 5 but not my friend in Sg.

Macrumors says (http://www.macrumors.com/2013/02/15/ios-6-1-2-to-address-exchange-and-passcode-b ugs-reportedly-coming-early-next-week/) it is likely that Apple is going to release 6.1.2 that week. Patch is supposed to fix passcode hack issue and ms exchange issue.

Hopefully it will solve our problem somehow.

Cross the fingers

Anybody tried the new update just released?

Yes, me. And nothing has changed, unfortunately.

Tomorrow, I call Apple and they interest to change my iPhone.

Upgraded to iOS 6.1.2. Slightly better. At least now I've set my carrier to manual mode, and if I enable 3G and after that, enable and disable airplane mode, 3G is back and working, something that I couldn't do under iOS 6.1 unless rebooting the iPhone. But when I turn 3G off, it won't come back later at least that I do all the process again.

Must say, I had my doubts before jumping from iPhone 4S to iPhone 5 or moving to another mobile an OS, and endeed up buying it after all. Now my doubts grow bigger and I'm not sure wether to keep on using iPhone or changing to something completely different, but functional...

Is the 3G button for turning On/Off to Edge net back again?

I've always had it lol, but anyway, 3G still doesn't work properly so...

so anyone update thier iOS to 6.1.2?,.. would appreciate if can give a review a little bit..

me not yet update it.... want to know about those who already updated ...

I updated to 6.1.2 and tested the 3G Connection inside my house and didn't lost Connection( i'm crossing my fingers) but tomorrow i will move by the city and  test really if i can use 3G without problems. Tomorrow will write about my experience with this IOS version and what happened with 3G.

This is ridiculous, the new update does absolutely nothing in that regard. 3g via manual carrier selection still works though..

Let me be clear about this, we only have a very low chance for a fix. Apple does not care als long as only a small minority has a certain kind of problem AND as long as media coverage (Techblogs etc.) won't make some noise about it.
