Hi, I just repaired my iPhone screen, and I have done a few before with no trouble, but this time once I had put it back together, it is always searching for reception, but never finds it. I tried restarting, taking the sim out etc but even without a sim, it doesn’t say ’no sim’ it still says searching. Can anyone tell me what is going wrong and how to fix it?
Not totally a apple head here but i do know the iphone 4s has GSM (sim card) and CDMA cellular. i think this plays a role in this. check your phone settings, And or a restore.
Set the date and time manually to the correct values and then restart your phone. Worked for me :)
I’ve got the same problem.. No one with a helpfull answer for this? Please
Your problem could come from 3 sources. The first one is a software problem: just try to make restore with iTunes. The second one could come from the sim reader commutator. If this commutator doesn’t make contact, the iPhone will think that there is a sim in your slot. So you have to join them together. And after, you have to check if it’s separates when you put your trap inside.
The third one is: you haven’t properly plugged your antenna cable on the antenna connector.
