wta to those who update to 6.1.2, did u guys solve the 3g issue? im on celcom 6.1 jb. my problem is it seem my ip5 will always connect to E instead of 3g. my sony arc n xperia z hv no problem with 3g, both also celcom line. i always need to toggle airplane mode just to bring back the 3g, n when it change from 3g to E, it is either wont change back to 3g until i use airplane mode or it will take a very long time  to switch back to 3g. please advise.

I've this issue too, but I did not JB.

Sometime even switched back to 3G, but it wont load.

Mine some time even worst, from Edge revert to o sign = GPRS.

I've more than that speed if under best 3G coverage area.

Here are the emails Celcom responded to me.

In response to your concern on the network quality, we have taken immediate action to communicate with our network technical team for them to conduct necessary test. Our investigation unveils there are low 3G coverage at your area.

Subsequently, appropriate recommendation for a new site has been put forward to the respective department for their deliberations and next course of action.

We were made to understand that one of our officials has contacted you and briefed further on the matter.

It is hoped that the above could clarify the situation and we appreciate your kind understanding in this circumstance.


Here is another email after I replied.

On that note, we regret to inform that there is no plan for expansion at this juncture, however, appropriate recommendation has been put forward for consideration, perhaps/be included in the future plan.

We hope that the above will clarify the situation.

It is a pleasure serving you and we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your continued support and contribution to Celcom.


I think MCMC aka SKMM should release the license for 3G on GSM 900MHz too, so that we can have better 3G.

And also LTE on 1800MHz and 2100MHz.

Otherwise we must be always got poor coverage, or more tower to be built (people will protest more).
