iPhone 12 Mini: after iOS 16.2 update, I can't connect to my cell network (Verizon)

My iPhone 12 mini was working just fine until I installed the iOS 16.2 update. I was getting full 5G Ultrawide service from Verizon. Now, I can't connect to the Verizon network at all.

I've done all of the simple stuff (e.g., cell data turned off and on; airplane mode turned on and off; hard reset; SIM card removed and reinserted; network settings reset.) Nothing works.

(I can connect to the internet through WiFi.)

Suggestions?

Hi there Roam Redway,


Are you seeing No Service, Searching, or SOS in the status bar on your iPhone for your cellular network connection?


If so, you'll want to be sure you worked through all the steps in this support article to see if they resolve the issue for you, including contacting Verizon to be sure there isn't an issue on their end: If you see No Service, Searching, or SOS on your iPhone or iPad


Take care.
