i'm not sure if this is the right place to ask. i'm currently using celcom 1 malaysia plan for my iphone. but it's always on 3G with the option to use 4G at my work place. the consequence is battery consumption of course. leaving my phone on 3G with minimal whatsapp and facebook will only last my battery for approx 12-13 hours.
the question is, is there any option (which i have not found) to only use 2G line (Edge) instead of the default 3G?

IINM, there is option toggle for LTE only & leave 3G for data connection
The 2G connection will automatically when the is no 3G coverage in specific area
Correct me if Im wrong~!

yeap. mine shows either 3G/2G (if there's not 3G) or 4G only. but using 3G draining battery too much. i guess no option for 2G only?
If your network doesnt support LTE yet like Digi or U Mobile, the the network settings will enable only the 3g Button. Means that your network is only configured for 2G/3G. But when your Network Provider (Maxis and Celcom) upgrades to LTE or 4G, then you would receive new settings from your provider and your phone will be LTE enabled. When you phone is LTE enabled, you would only find the LTE /4G toggle button. No more 3G button. So you can only toggle to off LTE or 4G but not 3G to 2G anymore. It your is running on 2G, it will show GPRS on the TOP Center of your Iphone. Please bear in mind LTE is only for Iphone 5 and 5s.
