Q: How do I use 2g on iOS 8?

I'm in Ghana, and not being able to switch to 2G is just crap. Aside the fact that iPhones have ****** batteries, being stuck on 3G or LTE is just going to make the situation worse. An update to bring back 2G is much needed.

This did not work for me mate. Tried everything suggested in this thread and what I was able to google to no avail.

Well, finally managed to downgrade to iOS 7.1.2 using the CDMA version of the firmware although my phone is a GSM one ! Go figure ! What matters is that I'm happy to have the 3G toggle back

wait! are you saying that Cellular Data cannot be turned off? i travel internationally several times a year. i have to use this option or the bill is astronomical!

The Cellular Data can be turned off. What we are discussing here is that you cannot switch between 3G and 2G network mode as the toggle for the 3G has been removed from iOS8.

i also have the same question..

my friends have 3g toggle though they have updated to ios 8 but i dont have that toggle

sorry. wrong discussion thread. thought i posted this on a different one. i was switching back and forth between different ones. thanks for letting me know i can turn data off.

i downgraded too

you cannot manually update - Apple will release the update as in iOS 8 no Carrier update was released separately - so it's up to Apple to sort this out. And in all probability it will, sooner rather than later. It's a mistake Apple made that's all.
