Perhaps this is a warning perhaps it is a plea for help who knows. Short summary is I lost wireless data (3G/LTE) on updating to IOS 9 and have not been able to get it fixed. Be warned!
It looks like the wrong carrier settings are being applied, it’s now using Telus Carrier settings on Koodo. My wife’s iPhone is using Koodo carrier settings on Koodo (with IOS 8.4).
I’ve spent hours on the phone to both Koodo and Apple, the ipad has been replaced at the apple store, reset, re-imaged etc etc. I logged a bug in the developer portal with logs and screenshot but I suspect that will take a while. My wife has an iPhone running 8.4 that works on Koodo, my sim works in her phone, her sim doesn’t work in my ipad.
If you’re on Koodo, I suggest you don’t update to IOS 9 (or move to Android). I’m now looking for my old bell sim card.
Wish I could - to stop jainbreakers they stop signing the old version immediately so you can’t install it.
Thanks I’ve tried everything. At this point I’m seriously considering selling the ipad and moving to an S2. The ability to send and receive sms is the final reason.
Interesting response from Apple on the developer bug I submitted.
"Please know that our engineering team has determined that this issue behaves as intended based on the information provided.
Even though User modified the Internet APN as sp.koodo.com, the APN for CellularDataPlanProvisioning & InternalDataProbe was still isp.telus.com which was rejected by network. So, UE couldn’t start the data connection since it couldn’t check DataPlan."
Seems like there’s some stuff under the hood that comes from the carrier settings and can’t be changed.
I’m planning on selling the tablet and moving to Android, mostly because I found I can do real SMS with an Android tablet.
