4.2 Beta 3G Issue

Jamieyang89 · Sep 19, 2010, 10:11 PM

I just got a ipad 3g today and updated to 4.2 beta but I can't create a 3G account with AT&T under Cellular Data. There isn't an option for me to "view profile." Is there a fix for this or do I have to downgrade in order to create a 3G account?

D'oh!

You'll have to downgrade, activate, then re-install 4.2.

I"ve been running 4.2 since it came out and have had pretty consistent 3G issues (no connection, etc.).

You may want to hold off on the Beta until Apple releases the 2nd Beta.

I DO love folders and multi-tasking, though.

I'm leaving the country (U.S.) for a month starting next week, and if Apple hasn't released an updated Beta, I'm going to downgrade for the trip.

Having the same issue. Upgraded to 4.2 and no 3G data connection. Everything else seems to be working.

I had that same issue and solved it by going to unlockit.co.nz/ and creating a custom profile with my apn settings, I think it may work with at&t too...
