My iPhone Says No Service! Here's The REAL Fix!

David & David explain how to fix the problem when your iPhone says "No Service". The first thing to do is turn Cellular Data off and back on in Settings. This can sometimes fix a minor connectivity issue.

If you're traveling internationally, Apple recommends turning on Data Roaming as well. However, be VERY careful, as this could result in you getting a HUGE cell phone bill.

It's a good idea to check for a carrier settings update. Apple and your wireless carrier release these updates to improve your iPhone's connection to your wireless carrier's network.

If no carrier settings update is available, check for an iOS update. Sometimes iOS updates include modem updates, which can improve your iPhone's connection to wireless networks.

Next, trying ejecting and reinserting your SIM card. The SIM card is what allows your iPhone to access and function on your wireless carrier’s network. Ejecting the SIM card can sometimes reset its connection to your carrier's network.

If your iPhone still says "No Service", try resetting its network settings. This erases all of your iPhone's Cellular, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and VPN settings to factory defaults.

The final step you can take to completely rule out a software problem is a Device Firmware Update (DFU) restore. Every line of code on your iPhone gets erased and reloaded, making it as if you were taking your iPhone out of the box for the very first time.

I can’t believe you missed the simplest fix of all which is turn your phone off and then back on. I happen to be traveling abroad and my cell data drops out periodically for some unknown reason. turning the phone off and then back on forces it to “reboot” and “find” the cell service again. just turning the cell data switch off and on in the settings as you suggested did not seem to be enough for my phone for some reason.

Thank YOU! Resetting. The carrier settings finally worked!

My simcard on xsmax saya no service, but i install other sim in my ip, the line is okay. I tot my default sim has problem, then i try to put it in another phone, it works.. the xsmax dorsnt read only my sim. What is the problemmm here.. helppp pleaseee

[richardrouton]

I love you guys. But the phone your using has service on it, so it's not an accurate way to show how to troubleshoot the problem. I'm having a No Service Probelm that goes as far as not allowing me to open the Celluar page. When I go to setting>cellular it goes to a white page. This means a software crash.

[bestgrimbarianever]

thank you so much! the first few solutions didn't work but for some reason when i tried your very simple solution of going into settings>general>about, all of a sudden my network started showing... haha that was very odd but clearly you guys know what you're talking about so thank you :'D

Love these guys – always great advice, and always top quality productions. Greetings from London.

I have an iPhone 7 and in the last month I keep getting No Service where a tower is less than 1 mile away. It's easily fixed by toggling Airplane Mode on and off. AT&T says problem is due to their 3G antennas being removed. I have only 6GB left of storage on device, so can't store many photos or more apps. Battery capacity is 98% but still drains fast. I've tried everything you suggested in video, but still get No Service about 2 times everyday. Should I update to the iPhone SE 3rd ? I don't need a fancy iPhone, nor can I afford one.

Still currently experiencing this issue on my iPhone 13. Have done all of the recommendations on this videos besides the DFU. Sent it to various iStore's (South Africa variant) and the problem is still pretty much there. It has had two different carries' SIM cards in and recently an esim and still the issue still happens.
Yet, the technicians have all come back to say that they were unable to recreate the fault and that is all they do.
Any recommendations.

When we travel we typically leave the phone in airplane mode and only connect to the local wifi at the hotel/resort if out of the country.

[kayesamson]

It worked! Thank you guys! God bless you both <3
