Quite often, the owners of iPhones, after changing iOS, repairing the phone, or a long period of inactivity, face the problem of the disappearance of the network on the device. Why doesn't the iPhone catch the network? We will talk about this further.

The most common cause of a malfunction is the incorrectly set time, as well as the time zone. Therefore, in the case when the iPhone does not catch the network, the first step is to look for a discrepancy in the set date and time. If the phone really shows the wrong date, for the network to appear, it will be enough to carry out such simple actions:

1. You need to connect your smartphone to an active Wi-Fi network.
2. Enter the phone settings, open the "General" section and go to the "Date and time" item.
3. Set the "Automatic" line to the active position (if the default state is set, you just need to turn it off and then turn it on again).
4. Restart iPhone.

In fact, there are a large number of reasons due to which the "apple" phone can search for the network, but not see it. The most common ones will be discussed below.
If the "No network" error appears with the correct date and time settings, do the following:

1. First of all, you need to turn on, and after a few moments turn off the "Airplane" mode again.
2. If that doesn't work, you can simply restart your smartphone.
3. Also, it is recommended to remove the SIM-card to ensure its brand and originality. In addition, you should look for any mechanical damage on it.
4. After that, you need to put the SIM card inside the device, enable / disable the "Airplane" mode a couple of times, after which the connection should resume.

If these actions did not lead to changes, it is necessary to check the settings of the cellular operator, not forgetting about the updates. You need to establish a connection to Wi-Fi, then go to the basic settings of the mobile device, open the line "About this device". Provided that the smartphone needs updates, the OS will automatically ask you to install them. If Wi-Fi does not function on the phone, the iPhone needs to be connected to iTunes, after which the device should be updated to the latest version of iOS.

In most cases, iPhone owners encounter the problem under consideration after unlocking using a program called Ultrasn0w or a firmware update. Also, a similar problem may appear as a result of restoring, updating, activating or deactivating the smartphone using Redsn0w, SAM tool, or after jailbreak.

You can try to troubleshoot the No Network issue on your iPhone after factory unlocking using your own IMEI number. In general, such a problem is practically not dangerous when compared to notifications about a problematic or unsupported SIM card.
Provided that a notification about the absence of a network appears, it is safe to say that the phone accepts a SIM card, only it does not see either an ordinary network or a Euroset.

The easiest and fastest way, which very often helps to fix the problem, is to reset the network settings. The subscriber should place an unsupported SIM card, go to "Settings", then open the "General" section, go to the "Reset" section and select "Reset network settings".
You can also try to back-al and delete all data, but such actions may have a bad effect on the functioning of the device.

The considered solution to the problem provides a positive result in 90% of cases:

• You need to put a SIM card not AT / TV inside the iPhone and then connect the smartphone to iTunes using a USB cable.
• After determining the phone by the program, you need to back-up, and then click "Restore".
• It is best to try to restore your phone first without using the Shift / Option keys. You can also restore the gadget in DFU mode.
• You need to wait until the restore process is completed, after which 2 iTunes functions will open.
• Restore from back-up.
• "Use iPhone like new" - it is recommended to select this item.
• Next comes the proposal for activation. In this case, you need to use a non-AT / T SIM card and wait for the required signal.

When all else fails, you need to continue looking for solutions and repeat all steps, from the first to the fourth.

Often, customers who tried to cut the SIM card for a new iPhone become hostage to an error, as a result of which the smartphone is not able to identify the card. To solve this error, you need to order a SIM card from your personal provider.

It so happens that the connected provider does not provide services in that area - as a result of this, the "apple" smartphone knocks out the "no network" error when searching for it. It also happens that the card is simply not activated. In this case, you need to contact your provider for help.

It is not uncommon for a No Network problem to occur due to a malfunctioning antenna. Under this condition, you should seek advice from professionals and preferably an Apple store, where specialists will help you set up a regular network, as well as a Euroset.

Apple's technology is now very popular all over the world and this is not casual. Many people prefer the iPhone for its rich functionality and stylish design, the rest for something else. As you use the device, various problems may arise that, as a rule, you can fix it yourself.

Quite often there is a problem when the device does not catch the network.It can be observed after a factory reset, firmware update, repair, or a long period of time when the phone has not been used by you. The causes of this problem can be various factors, for example, an incorrectly set time.

Before you take your iPhone to the workshop, try the tips we are going to share with you. In most cases, this will allow you to solve the problem on your own, even a beginner will be able to cope.

First of all, if the iPhone does not catch the network, you should check if the time setting is correct. If they are wrong, then you need to set the correct data manually, or if there is an available Wi-Fi network nearby, do the following:

1. Connect to WI-Fi and then go to the Settings menu, after finding the Basic item, select "Date and time settings";
2. Check the box to enable automatic timing. It may be on by default, but many disable this feature;
3. After making the changes, you should pause for a minute so that the iPhone has time to apply the new settings and restart it, and then check if the device is catching the network, if not.

What if everything is in order over time, but nevertheless the iPhone does not see the network? There are many other reasons that can lead to this problem, so let's take a closer look at each of them and find a way to solve your problem.

It so happens that the iPhone does not see the network with poor contact of the SIM card or unfortunate weather conditions.

In the first case We recommend that you remove the SIM card and make sure that its contacts are clean and that there are no visible damages. If the phone was previously without a SIM card, you may need to clean the connector, as dust could get there, which prevents the device from seeing the network. After that, insert the card into place and see if the signal appears.

Also, the reason for the lack of network may be an incorrectly cut card. To eliminate this error, you need to order a new one from the mobile operator, as a rule, you can cut it using special equipment directly upon delivery.

In the second case in addition to possible interference or bad weather conditions, it may be that the card you bought simply does not work in a certain area (the operator does not provide its services in this area). For the final check, go to the phone settings and enable "Airplane mode" there (the same can be done through the quick access panel). Then it will remain to wait a few seconds and turn off this mode. This procedure is required in order to reboot the network.

If you did everything as written above, but the iPhone still does not see the network, check the carrier settings (Settings -> Carrier), just in case. Make sure the slider is set to Automatic. In the process of torture, you should also not forget about the possibility of rebooting the device, because the problem may lie in system glitches.

Consider this version as well, in this case the device will not see the network. By inserting a third-party card, you will see that the iPhone is working properly, but when you go to your carrier, it simply does not catch the network. What to do in this case?

• You can seek advice from a company that provides communication services. There they will be able to tell you the possible reason for the blocking and tell you how you can avoid it. It so happens that the operator blocks the card only because you have not deposited money into the account for a long time.
• Sly operators can block the phone by IMEI to fulfill any conditions. If you have a card of such an operator, contact the specialists at the service center. There you will be unlocked by IMEY, after which you can easily use any cards from various network operators.

Perhaps in the past you have already done a similar procedure for unlocking your phone using a variety of programs, such as SAMPrefs or Redsnow, thus.instead of contacting the specialists again, you can try to reset the phone yourself. If you are not upset with the loss of all stored information, then in most cases the method described below can help you:

1. We insert into the iPhone any card of a mobile operator that does not block the device by IMEI, and then connect to iTunes using a USB cable.
2. After the computer detects the device, we perform a backup and only then click "Restore".
3. We are waiting for the completion of the restoration, as a rule, it takes very little time. It all depends on the iPhone model, as well as the amount of information that was stored in it.
4. Next, the system will offer you a choice, which consists of two points:
   • Restore from an existing backup
   • Use iPhone as a new device, you need to select this item.
   • Then the activation procedure will follow, after which a signal should appear.

Communication problems can occur due to a malfunctioning iPhone antenna. If so, then you will need to take the device for diagnostics and subsequent repair to a service center.

By determining why the device is malfunctioning, you will learn how to fix iPhone 5S if it is constantly searching for a network.

• Weak signal strength of the cellular network. Such problems are possible in large rooms, as well as in remote places from settlements. In this case, it is worth looking for a place where the connection will improve.
• Malfunction of the SIM card itself. If you replace it frequently in the device, there is a possibility of damage to the magnetized part, which can lead to problems when using the phone. The best solution to this problem would be to contact the service center masters.
• If you bought a phone from abroad, then there is a possibility that it cannot work with domestic operators, as it is locked under foreign companies. In this case, you can do it yourself using a computer.
• If you experience network errors that are not related to damaging your iPhone 5, you can try restarting your phone. This helps in cases where the device is not receiving cellular data or 3G.

There are situations when the iPhone stops seeing the cellular network. In some cases, you can determine the cause and fix the problem yourself, without the help of specialists.

It happens that after reinstalling, resetting or updating iOS, the device starts to catch the network badly or stops doing it altogether. A similar problem appears not only due to breakdowns in the system part, but also due to malfunctions in the physical component of the phone. Network problems will be reported by an inscription in the upper left corner of the notification panel - "No network" or No Service.

In the upper right corner of the screen, you can see a message stating that there is no network

If the problem lies in the system part of the iPhone, then it will most likely be possible to fix it yourself, but if the SIM card itself or one of the parts responsible for communication is damaged, then you will have to contact special services to fix Apple equipment.

First of all, you need to make sure that where you are, other devices with SIM cards of the same cellular operator are picking up the connection. You may just be out of coverage. It is also worth getting out of places where the signal can be drowned out by a dense ceiling, walls or special devices.

If there is a signal on other devices, then it is worth following the instructions below, which may return the network to you.

Incorrect time and date parameters can cause the signal to disappear. Errors can occur even if the minutes do not match, so it is recommended to set the automatic time matching mode:

1. Expand device settings. Open device settings
2. Go to the "Basic" block. We open the section "Basic"
3. Select Date & Time. Open the item "Date and Time"
4. Do not forget that you need an Internet connection to automatically update the time, in this case, both mobile Internet and Wi-Fi network will do. Activate the "Automatic" function. If it is already enabled, then disable it and enable it again. After that, restart the device so that the time is set, focusing on the network time. Set up automatic date and time updates

First, make sure airplane mode is off. Its status can be seen in the Quick Access Toolbar. Secondly, if it was turned off, turn it on for 15 seconds, and then turn it off again. These actions will reboot the SIM card and, possibly, return the network to it.

1. While in the device settings, select the "General" section, and in it the "Reset" subsection. Open the "Reset" section
2. Reset your network settings. Resetting network settings
3. Return to the basic settings and click on the "About this device" button. Automatic diagnostics for cellular updates will be carried out. If they are found, you will be prompted to install them, confirm the action and wait for the end of the process. Go to the section "About this device"
4. Go back to the device settings and select the item "Cellular", and in it the sub-item "Cellular data".
   We open the section "Cellular communication"
5. Please fill in all empty fields. The data for them can be taken on the official website of your mobile operator. Entering cellular data

If the above steps did not help, then you need to check the SIM card. Pull it out and check if it works on another iPhone. If the network is not found there, then the SIM card will have to be replaced. This can be done at the nearest service of your cellular operator.

If the SIM card works in another device, then there are two options: either some part of the phone is damaged and it needs to be taken to the service, or errors appeared in the firmware that prevent the SIM card from working, and you will have to perform a recovery.

If you have an iCloud or iTunes backup, you can reset your device without losing your data. Otherwise, all personal information and installed applications will be irretrievably lost, so make sure you have a backup in advance. After that, connect to a Wi-Fi network, go to the basic settings of the device, then to the "Reset" subsection and select the "Reset content and settings" function. Go through the reset procedure, after its completion, the initial configuration of the device will begin, at one of the steps of which you can specify from which backup you want to restore your device.
