Why the iPhone does not catch the network

The reasons why iPhone 4 or 5 does not catch the network are often caused by a broken antenna or transmitter amplifier. Of course, such a problem requires a call to a service center, whose specialist will restore the normal operation of the device with the help of special tools and spare parts.

Sometimes iPhone 4 or 5 does not have a network, when it is locked under a specific cellular operator. In this case, unlocking is required, which once and for all will solve this problem.

Also, the problem may be the malfunction of the binding of the radio block or the tracks of the printed circuit board. This is usually the case after the device falls (which causes some contacts to break off) or moisture ingress (the cells begin to oxidize).

What to do if there is no network on the iPhone

If the iPhone does not catch the network, you can try to fix the situation by selecting the network manually. However, in most cases, this action does not help.

The right thing at once is to contact the service center, where you will be promptly diagnosed, determine the cause of the problem and immediately eliminate it. Of course, you need to be sure of the quality of repairs, originality of used parts and fulfillment of obligations under the guarantee. Therefore, you only need to contact trusted companies - you can find information on exactly these on our website!

To be without access to cellular communication is a big trouble that always catches up at the most unfortunate moment. Calls do not reach, SMS messages are not sent, and there is no hope for a cellular Internet. If we look at the situation globally, the problems can be of two variants: on the operator's side (here we will not help) and on the side of the receiving device. We figure out how to get the iPhone to see the network.

The most obvious recommendation is to reboot the device, which sometimes copes better than manuals. On most current iPhone, you need to lock the Home and Power keys, but on the iPhone 7 the situation is different: there you have to simultaneously hold the Power button and increase the volume. A less radical way is to turn airplane mode on and off. You can do this from the notification center or in the settings, as well as using Apple Watch. When activated, the voice and data transmission over the cellular channel, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth is turned off. After turning on the smartphone will again try to find a network - and perhaps with great success. If problems occur only with the transfer of data, you can turn off only in the "Settings" → "Cellular" → "Cellular Data".

The next possible cause of the problem is wrong settings  time. Perhaps the phone is simply "untied" from the canonical time prescribed on Apple's servers. To check, you need to go to "Settings" → "Basic" → "Date and time"  and use the option "Automatically". Then, make sure that the smartphone is connected to the wireless network  and reboot it.

Then another platitude - if possible, it is better to upgrade to the current firmware, because sometimes the problem lies in the software responsible for the operation of the cellular module. At times, the operators themselves send the network settings, they can be found and installed at "Basic" → "About this device".

Finally, there is another solution to the problem - resetting the network settings. It sounds terrible, but you really should not worry, you will not have to do any additional body movements. It is necessary to go to "Settings" → "Basic" → "Reset" → "Reset network settings". However, it is worth remembering that the passwords from Wi-Fi networks, as well as VPN and APN connections, will fly away.

In the saddest version, it may be that your iPhone is locked to a specific operator and can not work with other cards. Sometimes unscrupulous sellers offer such devices at a significant discount, without notifying about the dirty trick. Unfortunately, in public access there are no sites that would have data about the list of "trapped" devices. Therefore, the best way is just to see if there is an "Operator" option in the settings and, accordingly, the choice of the service provider.

Sometimes there are situations that recently working properly "six" suddenly ceases to catch the network of the mobile operator. This happens most often after an unsuccessful firmware upgrade, either due to falls, repairs or a long period of inactivity. iPhone hangs and constantly catches a network signal, or ceases to see it at all.

Typically, the user in confusion tries to correct the problem himself, and only then carries to a specialized center. In some cases, such a delay is detrimental to the device, since it leads to irreversible breakdowns. So let's figure out why the smartphone does not catch the signal of the mobile operator, and how you can help in this situation.

Possible causes of the problem

The reasons why the iPhone no longer sees the right network, maybe a few. These include: nano-sim card malfunctions, iOS software problems or critical applications, and hardware breakdowns.

In case you just started using the "six" and it does not catch the local network, ask the seller if it is "sim-free". It is possible that this iPhone was "locked" to a specific foreign operator (most often such devices are tied to US cellular giants). And then you will have to perform the "unlock" procedure, which is sometimes delayed, and can result in a tidy sum to the owner.

Another important point is that in some countries unregistered SIM cards are automatically blocked. A certain period for this procedure is given, and in case of ignoring this requirement  it turns off. Then the phone is blocked by IMEI, because the registration date has expired.

If you have been using a smartphone for a long time, and similar problems did not arise before, remember, did you drop it the day before. In this case, the contact of the SIM card slot could be removed or the antenna or modem could be damaged. The problem with the latter, is also manifested in the absence of EMEI and interruptions with Wi-Fi.

If the radio module is damaged, the integrity of the baseband microchip soldering correct work iPhone with a network. To exclude this type of failure, remove the card from the device. At the same time, the message about the absence of the SIM card should be displayed on the screen, but if the iPhone persistently searches for the network, then the soldering is broken, and it is necessary to carry the gadget for repairs, it is impossible to solve these problems on its own.

Destructive and any wetting device, which causes oxidation and corrosion of the metal components of the iPhone. If water gets into the communicator - immediately turn it off, and bring it to the service center as soon as possible. The earlier you do this, the fewer problems will arise when repairing. Since the finest, like hairs, contacts of modern boards that make devices miniature, very quickly are destroyed from aggressive environments.

Also, the connecting loops, the connecting antenna, and the modem with motherboard. Although it is often enough to just put the contacts that have been left on the place, and fix them firmly in the appropriate connectors. Work - for a few minutes.

Among the software reasons, there are likely inconsistencies in the firmware and modem updates that sometimes arise. In this case, the iOS update is successful, and the modem is not. And because of different versions of versions - the system and the hardware part stop working, the gadget hangs and does not catch the operator.

In some cases, the normal operation of the iPhone is broken by external metal covers, especially with magnetic fasteners. Think for yourself whether it is worth using such accessories, even if the manufacturer himself was forced into the metal case of the iPhone (on the rear panel), to make ugly plastic inserts - above the antenna locations.

How to fight

If suddenly your iPhone, without apparent causes, no longer catches the network, check, first of all, whether the time and the time zone are set correctly on it (and if they are installed at all). It happens that if the phone has been disconnected for a long time, they have been little used or dropped - the sensors are knocked over. Sometimes simple reception helps.

To do this, you need to connect to any Wi-Fi network. Then you need to go into the settings, the tab - Basic, find the Date and time, and opposite the mode - Automatically - move the green slider on the right to the active state.

After that, restart the iPhone, the system should start as expected, and the network will be found.

If the error was not in the incorrectly set time on the device, then standard procedures should be followed, which in the vast majority of cases help users solve the problem:

- Try to restart the iPhone by performing a so-called "hard reset". It is initiated by pressing with the hold - for ten seconds, the buttons - "On / Off" and Home, the Apple logo will light up on the smartphone display. After that, turn on the iPhone again and wait for the system to find the network and connect to it.

- remove and after a while insert the SIM card into the slot. Before this, it is strongly recommended to wipe it thoroughly and simret holder with a microfiber cloth. Perhaps contacts - both cards and slots - are oxidized or covered with dust.

To prevent the failure of the nano-card itself - try to insert another one, it's better from another operator. You can check your card by inserting it into your friend's smartphone.

- Reset the network settings. To do this in the settings menu, go to the Basic tab, from it to the Reset, where you select - Reset network settings. (Your contacts and data will remain intact and safe, the only thing is to re-enter passwords for Wi-Fi networks).

Then you should carry out firmware updates before latest version, since the previous release of iOS on many devices initiated problems with all networks, both mobile and Wi-Fi. In the new version this problem is eliminated and after its iPhone  successfully sees them all.

Often, after dropping, reflashing or updating the phone, also replacing the SIM card, the smartphone does not catch the network. There appears the inscription "no network" and in fact the device turns into a useless expensive "brick". The reasons for this problem, as a rule, a few. Let's look at the most frequent of them, while paying attention to the ways of troubleshooting a problem called "no network".

Incorrectly set time in the settings

This happens after updates and flashing, as well as after repair in the service centers. To resolve this issue, you need to connect to wi-fi networks. Then go to Settings - General - Date and time and activate the Automatic item. Reload the phone. Please note that these actions need to be carried out while being connected to the wi-fi network, otherwise the cellular network will not come to life.

Cellular operator settings and updates

Have you checked the date and time, and the inscription "no network" has not disappeared? Perhaps the operator does not provide services in the region where you are. Then you can try to activate the mode "in the plane" for a few seconds. The same is done if you are in a home region. It happens that the connection "buggy" and just need to restart it. You can also turn the machine off and on. If this did not help, then you need to check the operator settings. Go to Settings - Operator and check whether the Automatic mode is activated.

Do not forget about the update for the system. Re-connect to Wi-Fi. Go to Settings - General - About this device. If updates are available to you, operating system  will ask for their installation. If Wi-Fi does not work, connect to iTunes. Then update the device to the latest version of iOS.

Damage or failure of the SIM card

In the process of an independent solution to the problem of finding a network, it is worth paying attention to the SIM card. Often, it can be damaged during pruning, it can fail if it gets wet or for other reasons. You pull out the SIM card with the key in the box from the phone, put the SIM card in place. Turn on / off the mode "in the plane" several times.

IPhone is blocked by the operator of communication

It happens that the gadget is blocked by the operator for the SIM card of a certain operator. The phone simply does not support other SIM cards, writes "no network". You can contact us at the service center, we can unlock it on imei. Typically, this service takes from a few days to 10 days, depending on the operator on which the device is locked.

Damage to the antenna responsible for receiving the signal from the cellular network

Often there are cases when the iPhone stopped catching the network due to damage to the antenna due to impact, moisture and oxidation, previously performed repairs, defective spare parts. To eliminate such a malfunction, you need to contact us in iConceptService, where qualified masters will diagnose and be able to repair the device.

Damage to the modem part and perpetual network search

If from impact, moisture ingress, the modem part is damaged motherboard, the phone will constantly look for a network and in the settings there will be no firmware modem. To verify that your modem is not damaged, go to Settings - General - About this device - Modem firmware. If the field is empty, your phone has been damaged by the modem and only qualified service center masters will be able to help you here. It will require painstaking, difficult work on the motherboard, which will restore the modem part and return the device the ability to see the network. Our masters have a lot of experience of this kind of work, which allows us to perform even such complex repairs.

Any modern smartphone is, first of all, a mobile phone, and then all the rest. Its most important function is to receive calls and make calls. To do this, a SIM card with a phone number assigned to it is installed in each device, and a special indicator indicates the successful registration in the cellular network and the signal strength. IPhone does not catch the net - what to do? This problem prevents the making of voice calls, so we need to deal with it.

Smartphones iPhone 4s, 5s, 6s and many others are technically complex devices consisting of several modules built on one motherboard. These modules work at the expense of complex software. No program and no electronic device can boast of 100% reliability - the same applies to the iPhone. Failure in one module often affects other modules, because of which the technique starts to fail.

Computer users know perfectly well what to do in case of partial hangup of a program or the whole PC at once - click on the reset button. There is even the saying "Seven troubles - davi reset". And this proverb, albeit subjected to modernization, contains in itself a share of truth - if iPhone does not catch the network, try to just restart it. It is possible that due to some kind of failure the device can not register on the network, requiring a reboot.

As practice shows, the reboot process really frees complex electronic devices from "glitches" and restores their efficiency. If your iPhone does not see the mobile network, try restarting it - it should earn.

Your iPhone has stopped catching the network, although only recently the indicator showed a confident reception? It is possible that the smartphone for some reason can not register in the cellular network. What to do? Let's try to help an intelligent device. To do this, go to the "Settings - Operator" and wait for the search results, then click on the name of "your" network.

Problems with searching and automatic registration on the network are rare. They appear as a result of some failures on the side of the operator of cellular communication or as a result of some mistakes in their smartphone. You can try to find the network manually or simply reboot the device  - after that it will trigger an automatic search.

Another reason for the failure in choosing a network can be staying in international roaming. It is possible that you tried to register in some network manually, and then forgot to turn on automatic mode. There are also recommendations that require you to reboot cell phones  for the most correct registration in your own or in a guest cellular network.

  Your iPhone is not good at catching the network and is constantly losing the signal? The problem may be due to the incorrect operation of the SIM card installed in the device. What can be done?

• Buy a new SIM-card with a new number;
• Contact the mobile phone for SIM-card replacement with saving the number;
• Try another SIM card.

If you suspect that a failure in the registration in the cellular network is associated with problems with the SIM card, try testing a smartphone with a different SIM card. So you can understand what the bad connection with the network is connected with.

Do not want to lose your number as a result of a broken SIM card? Contact the nearest salon and get a duplicate. Do not forget to take your passport with you, otherwise the duplicate will be refused.

  If your iPhone is not good at catching the network, then this may be due to its failure. Independent repair of the device is impossible, therefore it is necessary to carry it to the nearest service center. Here, the smartphone will be tested and repaired, after which you can safely use cellular communication. Problems with registration in the network (like any problems with electronic stuffing) often appear after getting into the device of dust or moisture.

Lack of normal communication with cellular networks may indicate an insufficient signal strength of your operator at the current point. And do not rely on the fact that "iphone catches everywhere." Sensitivity in all mobile devices, whether it's a dorogus iPhone 6s on 64 Gb or the old Nokia 1110 with a b / w-screen, it's about the same - pink glasses have to be removed and try to look for a place where there will be a confident signal of the network.

The original solution to the problem with the lack of a normal registration in the cellular network can be reset to the factory settings. You can also try to restore through dFU mode  - sometimes it helps to restore the functionality of iPhone smartphones.
