IPhone 4S says NO SERVICE but able to make calls

I've had my iPhone 4S several days. When just looking at the phone it can go from 3 bars service, to no service, then it takes a few minutes to pick signal back up.
Secondly i've noticed that when im on a call.. obviously i start with signal, but then during the call the phone (top left corner) will say NO SERVICE, but i can still carry on with my call, so i clearly do have signal.
Anything i can do about this?? Or any ideas??

Haven't seen that issue yet but you could try doing a hard reset (hold down the power and home button together for 15s)  or resetting network settings (settings > general > reset > reset network settings)
also does it show you as having good service where your at or have you had issues like this before

    Hi i have noticed same problem today , I connected to Itunes yesterday night and since today morning I have experiencing " NO Service" problem. if I restart the phone it works for sometime, then goes back to "no service" mode. I changed my location took the phone for a drive, didnt help. most of the time it goes into "no service" mode as soon as I disconnect a call. I am in UK on Vodafone network. I did factory resetting and loaded my back up. It worked for few hours then back to same situation. any pointers?

  • HT203032 Don't enable Wi-Fi calling on your Sprint iPhone or you won't be able to make calls as soon as you leave your Wi-Fi area.

    I tried enabling Wi-Fi calling on my iPhone 6 on Sprint and as soon as I left my Wi-Fi area my phone wouldn't recive or make calls. I would just a error.
    I called Sprint about this and informed them but, If this doesn't happen to you then just go to the Wi-Fi calling setting > Update Emergency Contact > Check Disable Wi-Fi calling. That should fix it!

    Okay, so my friends think it is funny to change the passcode on my iPhone.
    Maybe you should get new friends.
    I'm not sure that recovery mode works when you have to trust the computer, but did you try it?
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device - Apple Support
    If that won't work, perhaps you can use Find my iPhone from a computer in your iCloud.com account to erase the device.
    iCloud: Erase your device - Apple Support
    This has nothing to do with the Find my iPhone app being installed on the phone, but you do have to have Find my iPhone activated in the iCloud settings on the phone.

  • My Iphone 4 says "No Service"

    My Iphone 4 says "No Service"  I've sleep and away, rebooted, restarted network setting, taken the sim card out.. what else can I do? or do you think it is a hardware issue and I have to go to apple?

    It very well could be a problem with your carrier. But try turning the phone off and on and even take out the sim card. Then put the sim card back in and power it up again.

    I bought the apple iphone 4G J-5 from Laos and now want to use it in India using the normal Airtel SIM but am not able to make calls from the phone plz. help

    Is this what you have? (see above?) That's what I get when I search for iPhone 4G J-5 in Google.
    If so, this is NOT an iPhone! It is NOT made or sold by Apple. You have a cheap Chinese knockoff.

  • My iphone 5 says its charging but it isn't. I have a Apple charger. The problem is sporadic. One day fine next day won't charge

    My iphone 5 says its charging but it isn't. I have a Apple charger. The problem is sporadic.

    Hi gotwaxed,
    If your iPhone is not charging while plugged into the wall adapter, then I'd like you to please follow the information outlined below to help resolve the issue.
    If the battery doesn’t charge
    If the battery doesn’t charge, unplug your device and try these steps:
    Look at the connector at the bottom of your device and make sure it’s free of debris.
    If you're using a USB power adapter, make sure it's plugged in all the way and the power outlet is working. If you're connecting to a computer, make sure it's on and can charge your device. To charge an iPad, you might need to use a USB power adapter and plug into a power outlet.
    Try a different USB cable, USB power adapter, or USB port.
    If everything seems to be working, reconnect your device and wait for 30 minutes.
    If your device still doesn’t charge, try to restart it while it's connected to power. If you can't restart, reset your device.
    Get more help
    If your device still doesn't charge or you still see an alert after trying the steps above, contact Apple Support.
    If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Have a good one,
    Alex H.

    My iphone is saying no service in the top left corner what do I do

    ask your phone carrier.

  • Why does my status in the upper left say no service but I am connected to my wi-fi

    Why does my status in the upper left say no service but I am connected to my wi-fi

    No service refers to the availability of cellular service. If there was no Wi-Fi signal you would see only a dot instead of the Wi-Fi fan symbol.

  • Am I supposed to be able to make calls while iphone is locked?

    Hi, Everyone!!!
    I locked (as in password-locked) my iphone and put a 4-digit password on it like you're supposed to. Well, anyway, when I press the home button it asks me for my 4 digit password. But I can just press the "emergency call" button on the bottom left and call ANY number I want...not just emergency numbers. I called my co-worker a moment ago. I googled this "issue" and saw where it does that for others as well. So, is this a bug or is it supposed to be like this? I know my email and stuff is still protected, but I would think that password-protecting my phone would be able to prevent people from making calls with my phone, which it apparently doesn't do.
    thoughts?
    Thanks, everyone!

    \Troy,
    The passcode lock is not intended to prevent people from making phone calls. It is made to protect your information. If you do not want people to be able to make calls from your phone unless authorized, you can set a SIM pin, and will need to enter that every time you turn the phone on.
    You can find more information about SIM pins here:
