My phone Cellular suddenly got error, saying it needs to update but it was up-to-dated. How can I retrieve Network?

How I can fix the problem ?
I woke up this morning, 14 hours ago, to a notification from my phone that there were "Cellular Issues" - After 1.5 hours on the phone with AT&T Tech Support, I did all sorts of on/off things, including a Network Reset. I even went to my carrier's store and got a new SIM Card, that didn't work. The bars are still "loading" looking for service even without the SIM card in. It's keep trying to find service. I restored my phone completely, factory reset it, and it is saying that I need to contact apple support because it is "unable to activate"
I ended up buying a new phone outright because of this. Apple ran a diagnostic test and the trade in value of my phone came up as $0. So that's really cool. Woke up one day with an non-working phone and zero trade in value. Awesome.
If anyone has any experience fixing this, please help!
Same exact problem.
So because it's been telling me to update, whenever I try to update 1)through my phone - it won't work even with my wifi - saying that I don't have access to the internet (doesn't make sense) and 2)by connecting it to my MacBook - it still won't work after a certain period of time.
It's clearly a bug that is absolutely detrimental to iPhone users like me.
Even worse is that I just got my new iPhone 14 but I can't transfer the SIM to this new phone due to its NEW 'e-sim' approach.
Thanks. No really, I don't think I deserve to spend any more hours at this point.

Thank you Raicya for your suggestions. I tried all these troubleshooting, and it didn’t work.
I went to my carrier phone company. Though they changed to new Sim card, they detected it was the phone issue since the same Sim card worked on another phone.
As a results, I brought my phone to Apple center, and was advised they won’t longer to repair XR, and suggested that I can buy a replacement with about USD450. i ended up buying a new iphone with a renewal contact :(

How to unlock your iPhone for use with a different carrier - Apple Support
Apple can't unlock your iPhone for use with a different carrier. Only your carrier can unlock your iPhone.
You need to contact your Carrier.
Maybe the SIM card is damaged, go to your Carrier, ask for a new card, normally it is free.
Check if the SIM tray is bent, as even a tiny misalignment can cause the SIM card to not fully connect with the internal contacts in your iPhone.
OK, all's well that ends well.

Have fun with your new iPhone.
Thanks for your feedback & you're welcome.
