Hi,

My brother had recently changed his contract on his iPhone 4.
They told him that on the day changes would come into effect, he would lose his 3G network. They told him how to reset it to get it to work again, but he's a pleb and has forgotten!!

Any ideas?
Thanks
Cate

Sorry, what I meant is that he can call and text but not use Internet. He's tried that, but it's still not working!!

Normally you send a text to the new operator, they send the settings via a special text. You are given the option to save it which updates your internet settings.

Restart the phone job done.

Who is the new provider?
