IPhone 5 LTE full service but no internet in ONE spot

Hello,
I live in San Francisco, have an iPhone 5 and LTE service and I get great coverage all over the city: at home, at work, which in in a basement of a huge concrete building, and lots of other place. However, there is this one area of the city that happens to be a residential garage on 23rd at San Jose, where I work on motorcycles that I can absolutely NOT get any data service. It will SAY I have service, "LTE" three or four bars, same "service" reading as I get in all the other spots where I get connectivity, but in this one 100 foot radius, no service at ALL. It doesn't make any sense. If it would just say "No Service" ok maybe there's an enviornmental factor here, but it SAYS I have service, yet there is just no connectivity.
Can anyone advise if there is anything I can do or at least give me an idea of what is going wrong?
Thank you.

Full Service but can't send/recieve text message or make/receive call

I've got full service, but I cannot make or receive calls/texts. I'm in the same location that i've been able to do so since I got the phone. Help?

I have had this same exact problem. Internet access is fine over 3G or wireless but I am unable to make phone calls or send text messages.
I have tried both removing the battery for 30 seconds while the phone is on and restarting the device and *228, with both option 1 and 2 and none of these fixes have worked.

Airport network connected on full bars but "no internet connection" and missing lock icon!

this is really frustrating!
I'm using wireless in my house. when i click on my network it connects and it shows perfect connection which is full bars.
on Network Preferences it says that i'm connected to the Airport but when i go to Safari it shows "You are not connected to the Internet" so i click on Network Diagnostic where the 3 network status on top has the green indicator but the ISP, Internet and Server show red and failed.
I don't think there's anything wrong with my internet connection since I'm able to go online using my sister's computer and also on my iPhone.
There's also usually a Lock icon/symbol next to my network's name but when i'm connected to my network the Lock icon seems to be missing but it still shows full bars connection. I really don't get how it's possible to be connected to a network, but no internet connection, while i can access the internet on other devices.
Please help me out here. I've tried ways like going to library>preferences then put the system configuration into Trash, and going to Network Preferences and removing the Airport service and creating a new one.
and one more thing. all mentioned above are when i clicked on Advanced on network preferences then i clicked on TCP/IP and changed the Configure IPv4 from Using DHCP to Manually. When i'm back to using DHCP there's an exclamation point over the airport icon on the top bar and it says no internet connection.

Got my own question answered by a colleague.
He had me create another "Location" in the network pane of System Preferences, then choose it and click Apply. I created a new location which I called 'Airport', chose it and clicked Apply and sure enough, an IP address showed up and all is well.
Justin said it's a network bug in Leopard.

IPhone has no service but signal is strong and wifi available

I am traveling abroad and called my carrier from home to be sure I could get and send texts. My phone says no service but I have wifi in this hotel and my iPad works. iPad is AT&T but iPhone is Verizon.

This isnt really a troubleshooting step for you phone, but an option that may be available to you depending on where your travels have taken you is that you can actually purchase sim cards for a reasonable price that will allow your phone to work using the towers available, just something to think about
-----Also make sure that in your settings that you have the roaming settings set to Voice & Data as well as your international roaming setting turned on, purchasing a local sim card should resolve this issue if verizon has unlocked that service, which from what you have said it sounds like they did, so next i would just go purchase a sim card, see if that works, if/when it does contact verizon to straighten things out

IPad 3 VZ LTE shows connected but no internet

I recently experienced an issue with my IPad 3 not connecting to Verizon LTE, it showed LTE connected but there was no internet access via Safari, ookla speed test app, or any other apps. I did a full reboot and it did not clear up. My iPhone 5C showed same signal and tested over 8 mbs for speed. Tried several different locations and no improvement. I tried to reprovision the account, but it did not help, I then reset the network settings and that didn't help. I removed the SIM card an re-seated it and that helped for about 30 seconds and then the data stopped working again. I then used restore to reload the operating system and tried it before loading the back up, didn't help. I finally took it to the Verizon store and put in a new SIM card, which worked great in the store, but then it started the same issue. Has there been a recent change in the system software or the way it communicates through Verizon that would cause it to do this, and is there a way to validate the connection between the iPad and the Verizon network? One other thing I have experienced it having difficulty finding the network to begin with, it seems as though the signal strength has diminished some how for the iPad, but not the iPhone.
I appreciate any ideas on how to continue to troubleshoot

Hi. Check the version number of the router underneath the unit . Then go to www.linksys.com/download . Save it on the desktop . Access the router's web interface using http://192.168.1.1 . The default password is admin
USe the web interface to upgrade the router's firmware to the latest saved on the computer ..
After the upgrade , you need to reset and reconfigure the router ,

IPhone 3GS "NO SERVICE" but finds carrier in network selection

I'll try and keep it brief. So my iPhone 3GS constantly says "No Service" and I don't know why. I boot it up, and it says "Searching..." for about 2 minutes, then "No Service"
For almost a month now, it would randomly go out for an hour or so. The morning of October 8th it went out for two days straight. When I woke up in the morning (Oct 10) it was connected to Bell with full bars + 3G. It was only on for about 5 hours or so, then back to no service. It's now the 13th and I'm still left with no service. I've done a full restore, I got a new SIM, I've tried putting it on airplane mode for 2 minutes and going outside, I've shut it off and turned it on somewhere else, I updated to iOS 5. I've done everything I can find online. No luck. It finds Bell, both "Bell 3G" and "Bell" Settings>General>Carrier but when I try to connect to it, it tells me "Network Lost, your selected cellular network is no longer available. You can choose a different network in Settings" for both Bell 3G and just Bell.
Apple wants me to pay 229 to send me a new one, but I can't afford it, and Bell won't give me a loaner, so I'm left without a phone. Help, please!

honestly i don't think its a apple iphone direct issue. here's what i know...i have had a no service on my 3gs randomly coming up on my phone for nearly a year now. i have done everything you've stated and still the same. i recently just went to australia and used a telstra sim card and it worked flawlessly for 2 months. i believe that bell and telus have changed their signal or something that is causing this but they will deny it to the bitter end. so...why not just buy another iphone? Exactly! thats what they want you to do! It's just a ploy to get you to buy another phone. if you can get another carrier besides these 2 crooks i think you will find it works. try buying a cheap prepaid sim card to see which carrier works best in your area before selecting a plan.

Iphone 5 connecting wifi, but no internet

Hello there. İ have a problem about conectivit to wifi. I have a wireless router at home. I connect my phone to it. Both galaxy s4 and iphone 5 (and some other laptops) connect easily. but when i try to search something on the internet, there is no internet at all. Actually, signal strength is full, still no internet -just for iphone five-. i have tried all kinds of traditional methods that is written here and there like; resetting the router, changing security to wpa2, changing password, resetting network settings on my iphone, resetting iphone, hard resetting iphone, reconnecting and so on... none of them worked unfortunately. and i am not the only one having wifi issues about iphone 5. It started making me feel like i was cheated buying this phone. i have been using iphone since the second generation. we dont deserve this kind of problems in iphone!

iPhone 4s is not iphone5 iPhone 5 Will come out next summer
Your problem is likely that your routers firmware require an Update

One wifi spot my iPhone connects to wifi but not internet. All other devices connect to internet.

My iPhone connects to wifi just fine. When it does it connects to the internet just fine except in one location. My house. My MacBook Pro, my wife's iPhone and her iPad get on the internet there just fine. My Iphone's IP address it begins with a 10. At my house it occasionally will connect to the internet through wifi but I leave wifi off there because it is so intermitent.
Any suggestions?
I have not seen this problem addressed.

Can you ping a website using either Network Utility or Terminal?

IPhone 5S joins wifi but no internet access - help!

Forgive the length of this, I've browsed past threads about this problem and googled everything I could, but I can't fix the issue.
iPhone 5S, iOS 7.0.4
I have a MacBook Pro, a Time Capsule, several airport expresses, an iPad and AppleTV in my house... all are working fine (internet access unaffected).
The iPhone worked perfectly until two days ago... the internet access just disappeared for no apparent reason. Wi-fi strength is always strong; never a problem joining.
These are the things I've found on the interwebz and tried:
Rebooting my Xfinity router (multiple times)
Rebooting the iPhone (multiple times)
Turning wi-fi off, then on again (a zillion times)
"Forgetting" my wi-fi network, then rejoining
Changing DNS to 4.2.2.4 and back again
Resetting network settings on iPhone
Renewing lease in wi-fi settings
Checking/reviewing my Xfinity router settings and all connected devices
What am I missing?
Aside from returning the phone and getting a replacement, is there anything else I can do?
Any help/suggestions will be appreciated!

thanks for the suggestion. i did change the broadcast channel and this may hopefully help with an unrelated problem with occassional interference, but sadly it did not help with the iPhone issue.
everything still works fine, except the internet connection on the iPhone. sad face.... anyone else?

Full service but won't send text message

My iPhone has been doing this for about a week. I'll have full bars and I try to send a text and it will going about 3/4 of the way and sometimes send but most of the time it'll say message send failure or whatever and I always restart my phone but it still does it. Anybody know what's going on?

First thing to do is make sure your SIM card is sitting in the tray securely. You can use a straightened small paperclip to pop the tray out. If that doesn't help, bring the phone to AT&T and let them know you're having troubles and ask for a replacement SIM to see if that gives you any improvements. If a replacement SIM doesn't work, head to an Apple store and have a Genius take a look.

Full reception, but slow internet!

Hi,
My internet reception is great. All of the bars are full. The only problem is it takes FOREVER for the pages to load, and I always have to press the stop button and refresh the page to make it work!
I also am upstairs and away from my router which is a dell. I don't believe that it doesn't give great range, I just think that it's getting old and wearing down. If I were to get another one, which one would you suggest?

I would test your speeds using either Speakeasy or PC Pitstop. I they are significantly off of what your ISP claims speeds should be, then I would test youtr speeds again when your Mac is plugged directly into the modem, without the router. If your speeds improve, then the router is most likely the cause.
I have used the Netgear WGR614 for years and have had no problems with it at all in my mixed Mac/PC network.

Airport connected, full signal but no internet

Okay. I've been looking all over for the answer and it doesnt seem like anyone has had the same problem. My Airport Extreme (the dome kind) just stopped working. When I run diagnostics it tells me that there is no Ethernet cable hooked up to it when actually there is. I've restarted my modem. Waited 24 hours. Called the cable company to have them reset my IP. Reset the AE. Everything.
Maybe this will tell you something. The 3 white lights that let you know what is going on well... the middle one is permanently on and the outside left and outside right flash at the exact same time.
Please help I am at a complete dead end.

Did you do a "hard" reset per instructions here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107451 ?
Have you uploaded new firmware? Tried different cable? Inspected port in question to make sure the "pins" inside are not crunched/crossed?

I have an iPhone 5 in black, but it has a yellowish spot on the screen.

I have an iPhone 5. I got it last Monday April 15th. I got the black one. After the first day I noticed there was a small yellowish spot in the top left corner of the screen. It hasn't went away. Today I am going to call apple to try and get a replacement since its still so very new. But I am also wanting to switch to the white iPhone 5. Because I want it to match my ipad. And because I don't like the black as good as I thought I would. Do you think apple will let me? And if they do should I switch to the white?

If you set up a repair or replacement with Apple, they will always replace your device with one of the same specs and the same colour. No other options there I'm afraid.

Two iPhones showing in iTunes but I only have one

I had to get my original iPhone (bought 9/26) replaced because it kept mysteriously turning off. I now have two iPhones showing up in iTunes. Ones says "iPhone" and one says "Lisa's iPhone". ANy way to combine these and get rid of one of them?
Thanks.
LIsa

Lisa,
Where are these two iPhones showing up? Is it in the left-hand Source List of iTunes under the Devices heading? Or are they showing under Edit > Preferences > iPhone?
If they are both showing under the Devices header in the Source List, what happens when you disconnect the iPhone? Do both disappear or only one?
If they are showing in the Preferences window, then that is actually a record of the different backups iTunes has made for each iPhone. If the preferences and settings on your new iPhone are how you would like them, then you can remove the old backup.
Hope this helps,
Jennifer B.
