My iphone 5 is permanently showing no service.
My iphone 5 is permanently showing no service. I have tried everything including a complete restore. Does anyone know what this could be? I can connect to wifi. Thanks
So you've restored the device back to factory settings, did not restore or reinstall ANY content, and did not sign in with an Apple ID? In other words, set up the device as if you were going to give it away to a stranger?
The fact that you can connect to wi-fi suggests that it is NOT a hardware issue.

Hi, I upgraded my iphone 4 (4.3.3) to iso 5 beta 6, but now it shows "No Service" at top left, and unable to complete your activation. Also tells that "this device is not registered as part of the iphone developer programme." How could I fix this problem? Please help me...,
I had a similar occurrence with my just activated iPhone 4.
I had been using the phone for three days when an odd occurrence with voice mail caused me to call tech support. After some discussion they decided to push the activation to my phone (even though I had been using it for three days). When I went to power it back up again I repeatedly got the "no service" notification. I got tech support on a land line and we tried hard reboots and so on. No joy. They told me to take it in to the point of sale and either the SIM card or the phone needed (or both) needed replacing.
I tried one last hard reboot after dinner and the phone came up with service, but I took it in to the point of sale in the morning and they swapped the SIM card out and I went to a Genius Bar appointment to get the phone checked out. It is supposedly OK, but I am still having some problems when syncing it so I will have to visit the Genius Bar again tomorrow about that. At least I have not experienced the "no service" problem in the roughly 24 hours since the SIM card was replaced. (Fingers crossed) -
Hello Guys! I hope someone could help me, Im having trouble with my phone's signal, I am not able to send and receive msgs, same as make calls and receive calls. At first, my phone is working fine (iphone 4, iOS 7.0.4) and all of a sudden, my text messages are not getting through, and I noticed that my phone shows NO SERVICE, I refreshed the phone by turning it off and turning it on after a couple of minutes, it worked. My phone is okay again after that, Im able to send and receive messages again. But after few hours, the problem came again. NO SERVICE sign is displayed again, but this time after refreshing the phone nothing good happened. I tried almost every possible thing I can to fix it but it doesn't work. What should I do.
Thank youHey Clara,
These are the recommended troubleshooting steps to resolve No Service issues on iPhone:
Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
Turn iPhone off and then on again.
Remove the SIM card and verify that it's a valid, carrier-manufactured SIM. Also verify that it isn't damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
Check for a carrier-settings update. Connect to a Wi-Fi network. Then tap Settings > General > About. If an update is available, iOS will ask you if you want to install it. If Wi-Fi isn't available, connect your device to iTunes.
Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
Restore the iPhone.
If you are outside the United States, please also follow these steps:
Go to Settings > Carrier > Automatic.
If the phone registers any carrier network, Settings > Carrier will be present.
If the Carrier option is missing in Settings and you are outside of the Unites States, please contact Apple for support and service options.
Set the option for Automatic to off.
A list of potentially available carriers appears after about two minutes. If the device is locked to a carrier, it may connect only to the carrier network to which it is locked. If the device displays carrier networks, then the device is working as expected.
Set Settings > Carrier > Automatic back to on.
If you're still experiencing No Service issues, contact your carrier to check for any network or account issues that could cause these symptoms.

After updating to iOS 8.0.1, my iphone 6 shows "No Service"
After updating my iphone 6 to iOS 8.0.1.1, I can't connect to ATT cell tower and my phone shows "No Service". I tried to reboot phone, turn on/off airplane mode, take in/out of SIM card. But none of these helped.
Has anyone experience this issue??Confirmed solution from Apple:
You need to do a full OS restore through iTunes on your phone. You can then restore from an iCloud or iTunes backup to be back in business. It *****, but that's the only solution right now. -

IPhone 3GS is showing no service
My iPhone 3GS is showing no service, I have reset the network settings but that didn't seem to work. I then restored the phone iteself but it still shows no service.
The phone is on O2 and I have tried a few other sims, but it still doesnt seem to work. The iOS is 6.1.3, I have been told this may be the problem but it was working a couple of days ago.
I was also told to try these steps which didn't seem to work:
1. Disable 3G in Settings/General/Network
2. Power off the iPhone by holding the top lock button down then sliding to power off, leave the phone off for 30 seconds
3. Power on the iPhone
4. Reset network settings in Settings/General/Reset
5. Turn on 3G
6. You should be able to find the network now
I don't know what elese I can do, I would really appreciate anyones help, thanks.Basic troubleshooting steps
Reset the iPhone by Holding both Power and Home Buttons together till Apple logo appears.
Restore to a backup.
Backup, Restore in iTunes setup as new. -
My iphone 3GS is showing no service your network is restriced you can choose a different network in settings ive tried a restore and upgrading software/downgrading still no fix just no service searching...
I have no idea why this has happend ive been using the phone for 2years bought it on pay as you go and now all of a sudden its stating the above error i have never come across this problem before and currently im using 3GS and Iphone 4SSounds like it's been blacklisted.
Even if it hasn't, downgrading voids any warranty and forfeits all rights to support. You hacked your phone. You can't get help here. -
I have updated to IOS 8.3 yesterday. Since then, I have problem connecting to internet. My Iphone 6 is showing "no service" for coverage status. Why?
I have the same problem too now. I can connect to my wifi at home just fine but as soon as I switch it off and leave the house, none of my apps load (facebook, youtube, etc). I have reset my network settings, rebooted my phone several times, turned airplane mode on and off, turned airplane mode on and off and then did a restart. Still nothing. I also wasn't receiving any text messages but could still facetime, and send a different text message that's considered a "message" and not a text.

i connected my iphone 3g to itunes which was in 4.1 firmware and itunes ask for an update which i downloaded an updated the phone to version 6.1.3 but my phone cannot start it shows no service my sim card is not getting network and i cannot use the phone. what should i do.?
First, you do not have a 3G if you could upgrade it to 6.1.3, because 4.2.1 is the last version that will work on the 3G. So you either have a 3GS or you somehow hacked the phone to install an incompatible version. You can check the model you have by entering your serial number here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
Assuming you have a 3GS the most likely reason for your problem is you have a gray market phone that was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it. When you upgraded it you removed the hack, so the phone is now locked to its original carrier. -

i got an iphone 4 from one of my freind from uk he gifted me.when insert sim its showing no service available,i don no whether it is locked or not?but i can see the applications only thing is that the network is not showing.please suggest ?
According to Apple (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937) all UK carriers sell their iPhones locked, even though they also all offer unlocking. So, as mentioned, contact your friend and ask them did they get it unlocked? If not, which carrier did they get it from so you can contact that carrier and request an unlock.
