iPhone 6 plus cannot activate 3G

Good day everyone!

I have tried these recommendations


  1. Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings, turn airplane mode on, wait three seconds, and then turn off again.
  2. Restart your iPhone.
  3. Make sure that your software is up to date:Remove the SIM Card and reinsert it. Allow the iPhone to acquire the network again.
  4. If your SIM card has SIM PIN enabled, try turning it off: Tap Settings > Phone > SIM PIN.
  5. Try another location. If a different location works, but the original location still doesn't, contact your carrier to report the issue.
  6. Reset network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Resetting network settings on your device will erase all current saved settings, including Wi-Fi passwords, preferred networks, and VPN settings.
  7. Restore the iPhone as new.
  8. Contact your carrier to:
    • Verify that the iPhone is properly set up on the account with the appropriate, current data plan.
    • Verify that there are no account-related blocks.
    • Find out if there are specific error messages in the carrier logs that could help determine why the issue is occurring.



to fix this problem but my Iphone 6 plus stopped connecting via 3G from one day to another.

The option is shown but neither icon nor connection become active.
