Turning on Cellular Data?

Hello,
I dropped my phone and ever since I got my screen fixed the right side of my touch about 1/4inch is unresponsive. I need to turn on my cellular data but I can't because of the touchscreen issue being unresponsive. Is there any other way to turn on the cellular data? What if I reset network settings will that turn on the Cellular Data and 3G? But if I do that will I loose my Wifi connect? Because if I loose Wifi I can't click Join after I enter my password due to the screen issue. I have an iPhone 4 and paid twice to get the screen replaced 2 times and problem persists. I cannot go to Apple because my warranty is over. Is there any other way I can turn the Cellular Data on?

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:

There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

  • How do you turn off cellular data on Ipad Air 2 with IOS 8.1.2

    We have three new iPad Air 2s within the family. All have wi-fi capability but we are not needing to suscribe to it at this time, plan to use it on trips away from home. All of them get a popup message every 1-2 hours reminding to select a cellular plan. If it were only asking to select a cellular carrier I would understand, but when you do that it requires you to select a plan and add payment info for it. We are not ready to do that at this time. There is no "off" button on the cellular setting as there is on the iPhone. Is there a way to turn off the constant reminders to add a cellular plan?

    There is no option to not sign up for the data plan.  I just returned from the Apple Genius Bar and my genius said the only way to stop the message now is to remove the SIM card, but be sure to keep it in a safe place for when I want to activate Cellular.  The change from the older iPads is that the pre-installed SIM is a generic one that will work with ATT, TMobile and Verizon.  In the past you selected your carrier when you purchased the iPad and their dedicated SIM card was installed.  I really dislike this solution, especially keeping up with the itsy bitsy SIM card and having it readily available when I need it.  I did try a temporary solution mentioned in another thread to tell Siri to turn off Cellular Data.  She will do it, but it resets when you reboot the iPad.  That is preferable to me than removing and keeping up with the SIM card.

  • I have ios 7 and lately when im turning off cellular data for some apps when i leave settings and go back in they have turned on back again by themselves. It appears as if i cant turn off cellular data for the apps i want. Any tips?

    I have ios 7 and lately when i go to settings-cellular and try to turn off cellular data for some apps it doesnt work. As i turn off cellular data for one app immideately after i exit settings and re-enter settings cellular data for that same app goes back on again by itself. That happens for most of my apps and is reqlly annoying. Whats more annoying is that when i am not using wifi even though the settings for cellular data for safari or facebook or some other app are turned on (since i cant turn them off as i mentioned) i get the message that cellular data is turned off for this app and i cant use the internet at all on cellular data. I have reset to factory settings and restored from backup and the problem persists. Is there some help or tips you can offer me?

    Did you get anywhere with this? I'm considering wiping it and setting it up as a new device.

  • How do I get my iPhone to stop turning on cellular data for apps on its own?

    I have tried resetting on the iphone and resetting all settings. Nothing seems to be working. So far the only improvement is that my iphone stopped turning on cellular data for other apps but now, interestingly, it's turning on cellular data for all apple designed apps,e.g. Pages, App Store, Itunes Store, Facetime, Contacts, Calendar, Mail etc. Everytime I try to turn them off, it doesn't work. Please Help!!
    P.S. My phone is running ios7.

    Follow these directions, but pay attention to comment 1 regarding drafts. Best instructions I've seen on how to set gmail up as IMAP.

    I am out of the country. I turned my cellular data off and connected to wiFi . However, it is still showing that i am connected to a network.  How can i be sure that i am not being charged for roaming?

    Make sure data roaming and cellular data is turned off.  If you don't want to receive calls or SMS then put your phone in airplane mode and reactivate WiFi

  • Why does my iPad show no sim when turning on cellular data?

    Why does my iPad show no sim when turning on cellular data?

    Check the right and left sides of your iPad for a small hole the size of a paper clip (remove your smart cover if you have one).  If you see this, then you have the wifi + cellular model.  If you do, use a paper clip to remove the sim tray (or the sim removal tool that came with your iPad if you have it) as shown in the image below. 
    If the tray has a sim card in it, push the sim tray back in to re-seat it in the side of the iPad, then turn it on to see if the error message re-appears.  If it re-appears, take it to a Verizon store and have them give you a new sim card.
    If you have a sim tray but it is empty, you'll need to go to a Verizon store to get a sim card for it.

  • I am no longer able to turn off cellular data usage for individual apps.  When I turn most of them off, they just automatically reset themselves to allow data usage.  Any thoughts?

    I am definately having the same problem and cannot believe there are no answers or even support that this problem exists.  I never have to post on forumns, I read what is usually readilly availiable for the craziest of problems. 
    Anyways, the problem is just that, I can toggle off a individual app's setting of cellular data availability, but it changes right back on rescreening.  After restarting, resetting etc, it seems that the big Apple Apps are the biggest offenders.  Music is a very important one, Podcasts can kill you very quickly, app store, Photos, Facetime, Stocks?!?!?!
    When one searches for solutions I have to see hundreds of links to "How great is ios7, you can turn off cellular data for individual apps FOR DUMMIES!".  I am a dedicated apple fool since the Apple IIe (long time), but when they run afowl it is usually really bad.  Why offer an on/off switch if the setting is always on?
    I am writing just to add support to the existence of this problem, not so much for people to offer ideas of solutions as I now believe it is in the coding.
    Thank you

    I'm using a 16GB iPhone 4S, with the latest version of iOS 8.1.1. Whenever I go to the "Cellular" settings on the main settings page and turn OFF cellular data usage for native apps like mail, app store, contacts, photos etc , the moment I back out and come back in, all the native apps I turned cellular off for are back on again. Kindly help me

    Exact same question as ankit1986, specifically with the photos while on cellular-only, and as simple as it sounds, I tried the hard reboot Ingo2711 suggested.  Still experiencing the same error with the native apps reverting to on.  It's killing our shared data-plan (2GB).

  • It's my understanding that when traveling overseas, all i have to do is turn off cellular data to avoid high data charges.

    it's my understanding that when traveling overseas, all i have to do is turn off cellular data to avoid high data charges.

    With Airplane Mode you will not receive phone calls.  If you are just worried about Data Charges then just go to Settings>Cellular>Data 'Off'  This may also turn your iMessage off such that all your iMessages even in a WiFi environment go out as Text Messages.  If you still want to use iMessage from Apple device to Apple device in a WiFi network then go to Settings>Messages> and turn it back on after you have set Cellular Data to Off.  Ckuan is correct though about having some per minute received or outgoing call and text charges.  For one example, if you were traveling in Canada but didn't have a Canada Plan you would pay about 89 cents per minute and 50 cents per send / receive Text.

  • How to turn off cellular data for exchange mail iphone 4 running on ios 7.1.1

    Hello,
    I am new to using iphone 4. I am able to turn off cellular data for most of my apps. But unable to find an option to turn off celullar data for exchange emails.
    Is this possible? please help.
    For now I am using the fetch method instead of push.

    What's not there on the 4S is the ability to specifically disable 3G data. You can disable all cellular data. Turning off 3G did NOT turn off cellular data. It just shut off 3G. You would still be connected to the EDGE data network if present.

  • How do you turn off cellular data on an iphone 5c when there is no "cellular" in settings?

  • Do I have to turn on cellular data to make hands-free calls

    Do I have to turn on cellular data to make hands-free calls on the iPhone 6?  If so, REALLY, APPLE????  I have never had a smart phone and ALL of my low-tech phones allowed me to make hands-free calls and I did not have to use data (which is NOT free) to do it.  I know that I can ask Siri to make calls for me but how do I make hands-free calls when my data is turned off?

    Siri does indeed require internet access to function, so yes, you would need to have cellular data turned on

  • The endless message telling me that I've turned off cellular data for a given app is driving me crazy

    Like many of you I don't have an unlimited data plan anymore. So I've chosen to turn off the ability for some things to download anything unless it's on WiFi. In spite of this the d@#ned phone keeps telling me that I need to turn on cellular dat for "pick the app". I'd wish the phone would shut up and just work. Wait a mnute! Wasn't that one of the original slogans Apple had?

    Did you get anywhere with this? I'm considering wiping it and setting it up as a new device.

  • HT5858 IT WOULD BE REALLY HELPFULL IF CONTROL CENTER HAD A BUTTON TO TURN ON CELLULAR DATA. Could you(APPLE) please take this in consideration for the next update?

    What do you guys think?

    Logically, because unlike you I do not keep my cellular data on at all times as I do not have an unlimited data plan. I only turn on cellular data when I am on the go and I do not have access to a wifi network. Therefore my need for a button in control center that turns on cellular data. And this would be very usefull to other iPhone users outside the US and Canada, where unlimited cellular data plans are not so affordable.

  • I have an iphone 5 w/hot spot but am traveling out of the country. If I turn off cellular data

    I HAVE AN IPHONE 5W/HOT SPOT VERIZON PLAN AND AM TRAVELING OUT OF THE COUNTRY.
    IF I TURN OFF CELLULAR DATA AND DATA ROAMING TO AVOID DATA FEES, IT DISCONNECTS MY HOT SPOT.
    IS THERE A WAY TO TURN DATA OFF AND STILL UTILIZE HOT SPOT?

    Hi Friend,
    If you turn off Cellular Data you are unable to use hotspot.
    But you can turn on Airplane Mode and them turn on Wifi, then you can use Wifi wherever you are with Wifi connection. But remember, if you turn on Airplane mode, it automatically turn off your Wifi, so you need to trun on it again,
    Hope it will be helpful
