There's that. Some carriers have an app to change it.

https://activate.mobi-data.com/uk/en/ios does not write to go to the menu you wrote about.
If your carrier does not have instructions that work, tell them.

I recently dumped T-mobile because where I live is a dead zone, and most of where I go is a data dead zone. So there's really no point having a smartphone.
I went w/ Straighttalk as my hubby has it and it works here. However, I've had a lot of trouble getting things to work besides the plain phone funciton. The instructions say I have to update my APN settings but I can't find them. All the instructions I'm finding online were written in 2013 or 2014 and they don't seem to apply to ios 8.2. For example:
*In the main menu of the iPhone 5 tab on Settings
*Now go into General
*Select Network.
There is no 'network' within 'General.'
The straighttalk website gives settings to be input, but I can't figure out where to input them. 'cellular' just gives toggles to turn on or off.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!
