Can anyone help: my iphone 4 says no signal all the time

Hey guys,
Can anyone help me? I have done a factory reset on my phone and ever since, my phone will not regester any signal what so ever.
It just says "no signal" all the time. I have tried to reset network settings on it, but that doesnt work. Ive also tried to change carrier as it keeps telling me "your selected mobile network is restricted, you can choose a different network in settings." so ive tried every other network there is, but up until I did a factory reset it was working perfectly well on O2 if anybody could help itd be much appriciated.
Thanks in advance
Sarah

Marc,
Here's my story.  Received iphone 5.... went to verizon and had them turn it on to my account. On to apple store to buy apple care. Put on Zagg sheild cover in the mall. Returned home. Played with phone.. no service. Tried to call myself via house phone.. no luck. No mail box set up. Can't set it up if I cant use the phone. Bummed. Called Verizon. He (David) suggested I return the phone to Apple store. Made an appt at the genius bar for the next day. In the store I had two bars, gal next to me had 4 bars on Iphone 4s with Sprint, Guy across had ATT with 3 bars. Now I had a new phone. New one was great - now had 4 bars in the apple store. Left... went to ZAGG, reinstall cover sheild then to Verizon and had them set it up with my phone number. Worked great while out and about.
Get home -- no service. Bummed again.... I checked the Verizon map and I was on the cusp of G4/G3.  My phone was reading --  "o" and flipping to no service. David had told me he would call me back later that day, after I made a swap of my phone.  David did call and suggest I get a signal booster. I placed an order for one. It arrived in two days, set it up - easy - and waited for all the lights to turn blue.... WALAA! Called the special number and the phone works great from home.
I get G3 service at home and when I am out LTE service.  Funny  - the LTE service light comes on right when I am exiting my driveway to the road.  But I am glad that I have service from home. David called me again to check on how things worked out.  So far I am good with my phone and service. 
Signal booster from Verizon was my fix.  Hope my story helps someone in the same situation.

    My iPHONE 5 wifi is NOT working when am 3 feet away from router while my iPhone 4s has full signal all the time.Please help.

    The problem would seem to be in the firewall in your router.  Have you tried disabling it? I assume you've updated the router firmware, right?  Consider bypassing the ISP provided router (using it as a modem only) and unsing another device such as an Aiport Express.

    Hello jongriff1983,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting No Service
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4429
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    Remove the SIM card and verify that it is a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it is not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
    Check for a carrier settings update. Tap Settings > General > About while connected to a Wi-Fi network. If an update is available, a prompt should appear soon. If Wi-Fi is not available, connect your device to iTunes.
    Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
    Restore the iPhone.
    If you're still experiencing No Service issues, contact your carrier to check for any network or account issues that could cause this issue.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • Hi, I have an iPhone 4 which rings people when it is locked, whether or not in my pocket.  I always lock it when not using it.  Can anyone help? It is calling random numbers, not the last person or anyone even recently called on my recents list. Thanks

    Pay no attention to iinami, the amount of replies to people saying their handsets must have been jailbroken everytime iTunes throws out an error is tremendous. (Clearly you don't need to have any real knowledge to get to level 3 on these forums, let's hope apple's geniuses know a lot more than some of their customers.)

    Solution below.
    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if the device is manually disconnected during the restore process. This issue can be resolved by performing USB troubleshooting, using a different USB dock-connector cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • My iphone 4s shuts itself off all the time. starts normal and then shut it off and start all over again, what is wrong?

    my iphone 4s shuts itself off all the time. starts normal and then shut it off and start all over again, what is wrong?

    Your iPHone is designed by intention to shut off when there is a reason for the softwarer to believe that danger is immenent to the hardware. This can occurr if the software is running applications that have been corrupted due to all types of different scenarios. My best advice to you would be to restore your device back to default manufactures settings and do NOT restore the current backup of the IOS program currently running.
    If this corrects the problem with your device intermittently restarting you will then know you have had applications there were corrupted on your device. Once you are convinced there are no issues with the hardware of your device you then are free to begin downloading software apps that were earlier on the device.
    Good luck.

    Did you change the ID you are using for iCoud?  If so, did you delete the account, then sign back in with your new ID on your device?

    That will degrade the battery. Apple recommends that you fully discharge and fully charge monthly.
