which phone/finish/size is it you have?Scratch that - it still isn't fixed on 10.2 b1. It is a lot lot better than it was, but I still occasionally need to flick airplane mode on and off to force a 4g connection
iPhone 7 plus.which phone/finish/size is it you have?
Since updating to 10.1.1 the issue is still not fixed. Finds 4G initially but then reverts to 3G and rarely moves back. Also, calls are going straight to voicemail despite showing full 3G signal.
Three tell me that the phone is not switching properly.....(i knew this).....and that the phone is not registering fully onto 3G when it comes back.
I also now getting very slow speeds on 3G.
I have moved to multiple locations so this is not a localised issue.
I'm using a 7 Plus
It is definitely getting better but I am still having problems with 10.2b2. I take it you have submitted a bug report with the beta so hey know about it?Don't suppose anyone has heard any more news on this from Apple/Three. On my iPhone 7 Plus running 10.1.1 with Carrier Three 26.0 I can't keep a 4g connection longer than a few minutes before it drops back to 3g. Tried the public beta 2 for 10.2 and that was just as bad. Starting to think there's not going to be a resolution to this problem :-(
I'm having the exact same problem, very frustrating! Was going mad as both 3 and Apple were blaming each other and both denied any knowledge of a problem!
Missing calls despite a full 3G signal and it took me ages to find out what was happening, the problem mainly happens if the 4G is on "Voice & Data" turning that to "Data" helped but now I hardly pick up a 4G signal but the issue is happening now even if on "Data" only. So turned off 4G fully.
Using 7 plus and this is the second phone as Apple had no other solution... of course that did not help.
Hopefully an update will fix but until then I just have to use with 4G off!
still happening for me on 10.2b3iOS 10.2 beta 3 just updated the Three carrier to version 27. Maybe just maybe things will be better. But I doubt it.
Noticing a problem with 4G on my iPhone 7 Plus at work, which my iPhone 6 didn't have.
Although I'm with EE. If I have a weak 4G signal 1/2 bars it randomly loses the 4G connection and connects to Edge and not 3G which is odd.
I have the latest iOS so hoping its a software fix and not a faulty phone.
Really appreciate the screenshot, would you be able to let me know your iOS version & Carrier info from Settings > About please?
It is a carrier issue and it is usually related to the SIM card, 3 are notoriously bad when it comes to SIM card and connectivity issues. A replacement SIM card fixes the issue 9 out of 10 times.Small update on my post above.
I decided to jump sim shot yesterday to EE and straight away signal and 4g connectivity is vastly improved.
Previously on three I was getting 1/5 signal and 10mb max 4g.
Now on EE I have 3/5 or 4/5 and get 45+mb on 4g
Definitely carrier related but each time I call three I get a different story.
