    I've been having issues with my 3g cellular data all day. I did search online and it appears there are some data outages in the northeast (me) and mid-east? I just wanna know if any other members are having 3g data outages. Haven't tried non-3g data yet.

    So heres a solution when your Verizon iPhone only does not have working data. This may be a permanent fix or a temporary. For the people that I have had them do it, it was a permanent fix. So go to Phone and dial *228 and press 1 for program or activate your phone. It will play music while you wait and the automated voice will say "Your phone has successfully been programmed with the network, Thanks for calling!" Then after you iPhone will switch off its radios and turn it back on and ta-da! Working data (and from my experience with me and others you get faster data than before). Hope this helps!

    Im actually not sure. You could try it, worst that could happen is that it will give a automated voice saying the phone number is not correct or something like that. I know for a fact this does not work on AT&T but Sprint is CDMA so it may work. Give Sprint a call
