Having To Reset Network Settings Almost Daily - Iphone 5

[gubble]

I'm having an issue with my iphone 5 whereby i'm having to reset the network settings on an almost daily basis.

I will be in a 3G area - the phone is showing a strong 3G signal but i cannot use 3G so can't use social media apps or the browser.

To resolve this i have to reset the network settings which obviously means i then have to re-enter wifi passwords etc.

Has anyone else experienced this or know of any resolution? It's becoming a hassle to have to do this so frequently.

Hi

This could be the SIM card degrading or the iPhone is at issue if this is happening everywhere 

A Vodafone store can swap out the SIM card for you 

If you have a local Apple Store they can run a diagnostic. 

Process of elimination: Can you try you're Sim card in another phone to rule out either the Sim or Account or Phone which may be at fault.

Hello @gubble

You shouldn't need to reset your network settings on a daily basis especially if you have the latest iOS.

Have you tried restoring your iphone through itunes?  It may help.
