iPhone Says No Service? Here’s Why + The Fix!

Two Apple experts explain what to do when your iPhone says No Service. Having no service on your iPhone is incredibly frustrating because you can’t make phone calls or send texts.

First, look for iOS and carrier settings updates. Both can help improve your iPhone’s ability to connect to your wireless carrier’s network.

Second, check your iPhone’s Cellular settings and make sure Cellular Data and Voice Roaming are turned on.

Third, eject your SIM card and reinsert it. This will give your iPhone a second chance to reconnect to your carrier’s network. Note that your iPhone says No Service as soon as you pop the SIM card out, but it should reconnect shortly after.

Fourth, reset your iPhone’s network settings. This has the potential to fix a hidden software issue. If the reset doesn’t work, perform a DFU restore, which erases and reloads all of the code on your iPhone

[VildeDiscohaven]

The thing with no service is that, when u don’t have service u can’t see the cellular settings 😑

I been on so much videos and none of them help..

My iPhone started "No Service while was out of town. Tried everything. No Service for two days. Came home, found your channel ad video. Hubby was on his way to Apple store. Told him to try taking SIM card out. He did, Service restored!! Thank you, Thank you!!! I love you guys !!

[dougwainwright]

Excellent! I had no service all day. With the help of these two guys, I popped out my sim card, reinstalled it and BAM! I have service. Great, thanks..D.

[silverbenjammin]

Sorry to those still searching for a solution. I tried every single step and finally taking out the SIM and putting it back in our iPhone 8+ seemed to do the trick. Be persistent and hang in there!! Btw we have Verizon, seems to be a common issue with iPhones on their service.

"Two Apple experts..."??? Really? Advising what most already know? LOL

Thank you! I have been TOILING over my phone for WEEKS and this video cured my issues. Shoutout to these two apple experts, you've helped me keep my sanity. peace up, A-town

[mikkihesson]

Did all this. None of them worked. It says tfw for my carrier when i turn it on, then back to no service after a few seconds. never been able to make a call.

[venstonvedasto]

Ios 12 sucks i had no problem before updating

[lanoi]

Perfect! It worked!
My phone kept on kicking to 1x mode and I couldn’t figure out why. It’s never done that before. I followed your instructions up to the reset network settings part. It worked! Resetting my network solved the issue. Thank you very much!!

[zeldahartle]

Thank u guys, this really sorted out my “No Service” issue. The last tip where I reset the network settings, did the trick😃Great work!! Keep it up👍

[donovansmalls]

Thank you, I did every step you guys mentioned and now my phone has service! I think it may have been the network settings being reset. But also I'm pretty sure when i dropped my iphone 7 (and it cracked), that was when the no service issues occured. Crossing my fingers/ hoping it doesnt reoccur
