I just bought my iPhone 5 last friday from celcom. My iPhone uses a proper nano sim from celcom, while my one x uses a micro sim cut from a Celcom normal sim. Enabled 3G on settings in iPhone but this happened. Rebooted/airplane mode multiple times but to no avail. Any tips?

P/S: signal not strong enuf is BS coz my one x is riding on HSDPA all the time. Don't even have to force it in the settings. This is the only thing thats stopping me from enjoying my iPhone as a daily driver so if you have any tips, do share.

Jb it and download auto3g from Cydia. Hope it helps. Your welcome

Still problem

I googled about Auto3G and from what i can understand, it turns off 3G when you lock your phone to conserve battery life. Can we actually use it to force iPhone to connect to 3G all the time? Like how android can force the modem to connect to 3G/HSDPA?

Yes it forces it to use 3G and not edge just make sure you set everything 3G. Now still 3G, no more edge d

I'm on iOS 6.1 now. Can i grab the 6.1.2 update somewhere and use it to update my iPhone before i jailbreak? Because 6.1.3 is out and no jb for it

BTW do you happen to know any good theme sites? So far only Jaku catches my eye. The last apple product i JB'd was an ipod 2G so its been a very long time. No idea what happened to the theming scene (long live Dulce theme)

i think u better just jail break it altho u on 6.1 i doubt 6.1.2 bring any significant differences.

Alrighty. will proceed with jailbreak and buy auto3g. I just pray it can get the 3G signal back or its my cash down the drain lol

That one not too sure whether it will work though. U can try downloading the ipsw here and dfu ur iphone and restore it to the software u downloaded from

is auto 3g compatible with ios 6? it states its not compatible in cydia.

i have the repo too . ill download it now , just wanted to make sure

lol haha..try d let me know if it works ya..so far i no problem

For those who are not jailbreaker's. maybe you want to try these method.

Go to Settings
1. Carrier - used manual selection (select your service provider)
2. General>Cellular - Always switch on 3g. ONLY switch off cellular. DO NOT need to switch off 3g selection if you doesn't need 3g or you want to safe battery power.

Mine works well now.

I'll try that tomorrow while turning off the jb app and will report back here

And bro if switch off cellular data dat means no 3G? which is worse than EDGE? lol

I mean for those doesn't need edge or 3g service. they don't need to switch off the 3g selection. switching off the cellular service will do.

Auto3g will not run smooth after a few reboot. Mine have problem. Maybe is just me?

Dunno woh. I never reboot anything also

these are what I faced after installing Auto3g.

After reboot. the 3g selection is not working because of that even the IP5 unit able to obtain an IP I'm not able to surf the internet or whatever because the 3g cannot turn on.

anyway! my method will do you no harm because you don't need to JB your unit because of the auto3g.


Just sharing.
