No more cellular data/ connection to network after the update. What to do?

I updated to iOS 16.1.2. And suddenly have no more cellular data/ connection to my network provider. No phone calls, no sms. What can I do about it?


It tells me no service and “cellular error”. I don’t know what to do. Everything just worked fine before the update… 😔

iPhone 8, iOS 16

Try to -> Remove and reinsert the SIM card.

If it doesn't help contact your carrier, maybe the SIM card is damaged, ask for a replaced (new) card. Normally it is free.

Also  ask to 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.
