[Tech ARP] Apple To Re-Enable 3G Switch In iPhone 4S

news · March 8, 2012

Dear editor,

We have just updated our editorial "Apple To Re-Enable 3G Switch In

iPhone 4S"

Quote : Fast forward to 16th December 2011 and the launch of the Apple

iPhone 4S. I was one of the first to upgrade to the iPhone 4S due to

an almost-dead Home button on my iPhone 3GS. But almost immediately, I

noticed a big problem - like the Dopod 595, the iPhone 4S won't allow

me to disable the 3G network!

The call would randomly drop and I would get a Call Failed notice, and

the signal would drop to nothing and the iPhone starts searching for

the Maxis network. It takes a minute or two before it would reconnect

and allow me to make another call. Needless to say, it's not only

frustrating but is also costing me money in extra calls.

After complaining to Maxis countless times, I was able to discuss this

problem with their engineers. During one of our conversations

recently, their engineer told me that they have been in touch with

Apple about my problem, and one of the solutions Apple suggested was

for me to wait for the upcoming iOS 5.1 update.

In today's update, we look at the changes in iOS 5.1 and see it solves

the call dropping issue with 3G networks.

We hope you will post this news on your website. Please feel free to

send your news to news ( -at -) techarp.com and we will reciprocate.

Thanks!
