iOS 8.1 LTE / 3G / 2G toggle
I updated my iPhone 5s to iOS 8.1 but the toggle to switch between LTE , 3G and 2G not exist and is described on the update list ?
I updated my iPhone via OTA if that the reason ?
Thanks

You can't talk about jailbreak stuff. This is an official Apple support community
Finally that Airtel Guy explained me nicely that they can't do anything; Hands Up...!
Does anyone has solutions for that?

If you go to Setting then cellular you can then disable or enable LTE, and when you disable LTE it will go to 3G.
But how to enable 2g or LTE without 3g?
Nice. My post was removed but other same posts are presents.
You cant use 2G anymore, I doubt there are anymore 2G towers and you cant only use 4G because if there is no 4G in the area your in then it goes to 3G.
You cant, because apple disabled this function for specific carriers and enabled it for others.
its about how much lte is integrated in the carriers network...
Here is an explanation from apple
Explain,please, how it possible with same carrier, but different devices. Carrier disable this function for iPhone 6 and enable it for iPhone 5?
NO ... For iPhone 5 its not there
I'm on O2 also with the same problem, I need 2G in my house where I get 4 Bars, but only 1 Bar with 3G and dropped calls all the time.
Now I updated my 5 and 6 to 8.1, the 5 now has the options to toggle 2G,3G,4G, but the 6 is exactly as it was before.
When I read the O2 stuff on their web site about the 6, it only mentions 4G, so maybe they do not want anyone with new phones on the 2G
I have a 5 & 6 iPhone both with the same carrier, on the 8.1 update the 5 now has the ability to have 3G Off, the 6 is still the same with no option.
This makes me believe its down to the phone model 5 and back the toggle will now be available and 5S up not available.
I had an iPhone 5 and this option was available after iOS 8.1 .After upgrading to iphone 6 plus the same option does not appear. I think there is either no carrier update or apple has not enabled this for the new iPhones. Luckily the battery for the iphone 6 plus is so good that I am not missing this . However on the iphone 5 , my battery used to die out before the end of the day if I was on 3 G.
Maybe because the iPhone 5 only supports lte on specific networks?

scroll down to the iphone 5 and have a look ....
its pretty simple... the options in the mobile data menu with the lte or 3g switch are different for iphone 5(on most networks) compared to the iphone 5s and 6 because on most networks the iPhone 5 is not able to use lte
Hey guys, I am uploading a video that shows exactly how to enable these settings and extras:) ETA 1 hour, my upload speed is only 1.2 MBPS.
Good day!
I have the same problem, I bought iphone 4s (IOS 8.1) last week and i subscribe to UAE etisalat carrier mobile data plan, i cannot access to mobile data internet because my carrier was still AT&T. There is no toggle for 3g & 4g also. I tried to called Etisalat carrier and inform me that i should contact Iphone service directly.
