Turning off Roamingg charges on Iphone 5?
So I'm leaving for Miami in a couple of hours and I recently just got an iPhone 5 which I love it to bits but there's one thing everyone is telling me I should be worried about and that is the roaming charges… I was hoping that there was a way to turn all that off? I've shut off the cellular, The Wi-Fi, Bluetooth & Personal Hotspot and now I've got it on Airplane mode for good measures, is there anything else I need to worry about or what?
Airplane mode cuts off all wireless communication, so it would be impossible to get roaming charges
you CAN turn on Wi-Fi and still access iTunes, iMessage, web browser and other web-based apps in range of local Wi-Fi hotspots and not worry about being charged anything.
Go to settings > general > mobile data, and turn off 'Data Roaming' - that will stop any cellular data being used when outside your home country.
No need for Airplane mode or to turn off Wi-Fi, bluetooth or personal hotspot etc, it is the data roaming selection that is the issue here. Indeed you might well want to turn on Wi-Fi so you can pick up free Wi-Fi if you can find some there.
- Why is my iPhone 5 turning off and not turning back on? This has happened twice now. My iPhone 5 has turned off in the middle of the night with a full charge and off the charger, and when I try to turn it back on it takes a couple tries. Has anybody experienced this?
- My new iphone 5 only charges when turned off? I have a new iphone 5 that I recently bought and is updated to ios 8 but the problem is it only charges when the phone is turned off, I have tried restarting my phone but nothing changes, and I have also cleaned out the lint from the phone but it made no difference
- My iphone only charges after I turn it off and back on? When I plug my iphone in it won't charge so if I turn it off and plug it in the turn it back on it starts to charge and my battery is going dead really fast and help on how to fix
- My iPhone keeps turning on and off like it turns on and off. Can someone tell me? Okay tbms it turns on and off on and off and then sometimes it shows a red screen for a few seconds then off again and dies out. It's not the battery because I got that changed thinking that it was the cause and it wasn't. So is there anything someone can help me with? The repair guy tried restoring it through iTunes he said it didn't work either it just won't come on it doesn't go pass the Apple logo before shutting off and on again and dying out
