Call Celcom CS and ask them to reset the network port on THEIR side. And you will get 4G.

Need some clarification;

You guys, when you say 4G/LTE, do you actually get '4G' or 'LTE' showing on the top status bar and Settings > Cellular? I have no idea how Malaysian telcos classify things. In Singapore (where I live/work) 4G and LTE are the same. Some telcos display '4G' and some display 'LTE', but both are the same performance.

How does it work here? Is it something like the U.S where you get both 4G and LTE on the same network (U.S 4G is actually 3.5G performance, while their LTE is true 4G ... at least for AT&T) or is it just different wording depending on the telco/carrier, like in S'pore?

Just curious because I have a Celcom Xpax prepaid for when I come back to J.B to visit my mum on weekends, and it shows '4G' in the statusbar. Needed to call to activate that, btw. Tried a couple of times and the operator buat-bodoh saying already activate but my area no coverage, so the third time I went to the main Celcom store in J.B town center and called the operator from my phone, telling them I was in the middle of a 4G area and was still getting 3G only. It worked. They opened some "report" (probably bullsh*t) and I got 4G within a couple of hours.

I read Apple customizes the 4G and LTE based on market. But Msia it should show LTE

^ Is that true? I thought it depended on the carrier firmware - the updates that you get once in a while when you go to Settings > General > About.

My iPhone 6 is an Australian set. Says 4G both on my Singapore carrier and Celcom. My gf is on the same carrier as me and her iPhone 5s (Singapore set) also says 4G. Another collegue's iPhone 6 (also Singapore set) says LTE, but he's using a different telco from my gf and me.

On maxis it shows LTE.

Yezz, it depends on carrier itself. DiGi and Maxis shows LTE, Celcom shows 4G.

it's supposed to be "celcom4g"

still more "premium" than plastic

but when apple uses plastic, its "premium polycarbonate"

my 5s , celcom show 4g, my ip6, digi show lte

Wanna upgrade but not sure 6 or 6+..
And when is probably the next one coming out

my ip6 + is my first white (front) iphone..

so just asking, from previous iphone white users, will it turn yellowish?

Like mentioned, its just a "Display Name". Both 4G and LTE are the of the same network and spectrum. It is up to your carrier what it wants to display on your phone. You can even customize it to display your own name but then your phones need to be jailbreaked.

Never had this problem. Unless of course if your hands are always sweaty and oily and your sweat is corrosive.

So far didnt face this problem when i was using the white ip4s, so should be no problem with the white ip6 versions

There would be an announcement in the next 6 months or so as traditionally iPhones are announced in September. If I were you at this stage I would wait, even of you don't buy the new ones., the older ones get a slight price reduction

Still a long wait though for September.. Yeah i forgot it's a tradition now that a new one is always released/announced on September. Gotta decide soon.

I am with DiGi and the display on my iPhone comes up as "LTE", when available. I've never seen "4G" on a DiGi network, although 3G is quite common!

It's already mid-March and if you can wait, September's when the new iPhones are launched. With their Malaysian debut usually happening a month or two after that!

Mac City has a reliable Service Provider over at 1 Utama and you can drop by there if you're in PJ!

Depends. If you think it will be a huge upgrade to change phones now, better pull the trigger... With GST Coming soon and the RM.

Waiting for the September iPhones is a better choice if your current phone is fine. However, keep in mind that the Malaysian launch is much later, plus the initial low stocks... Might be a while before you can get the color and capacity you want.
