No Service after iOS 17.0.3 Update

i got a notification to update my iPhone 14 promax to iOS 17.03 which I did. After the update, my device has been displaying no service. I have done all the recommended solutions on google ( removed and reinserted the sim, reset settings, hard restart, no iOS update). Is there any other option to explore?

Update: Took it to a T-Mobile shop near me and they tried 2 different physical SIM cards on top of 3 E - SIM cards and my phone wouldn't read any of them. Absolutely nothing worked. I Think the update literally stopped the phone from reading SIM cards, so I'm going to an actual Apple Store to replace the unit entirely.

Apparently this is not just an iOS 17 issue.


Just upgraded my like new iPhone 6s Plus from 14.something to iOS 15.8.


After the update signal strength / signal is in the toilet.


Where I was seeing 1 and 2 bars with iOS 14 I now see NO SERVICE.


WiFi is working BUT for some reason when NO SERVICE is displayed then WiFi Calling is not functioning / available.


This seem to be some bug introduced by Apple. Unfortunately they will likely ignore it and those searching for a fix in a effort to sell a new phone. Great for the shareholders I guess.

I have the same issue with a new (renewed) iPhone 11. Problem seems to have occurred after the phone performed one (of several) iOS updates. Phone is currently running 17.1.1.

I tried calling Tech Support for my carrier (ATT pre-paid) two times. Both times they were able to resolve the issue temporarily. Restarting the phone caused the problem to occur again.


Has anyone been able to prevent the issue by resetting their phone to factory settings, and then NOT allow the phone to do any iOS updates?

Right after i updated to IOS 17.3, this problem came up. The cellular is on but no service, can see other networks meaning not my motherboard or the cellular band problem. Maybe there's a bug that not everyone have only the selected ones. I can't call nor text and i need it so bad cause this is my only/work phone. Without the cellular can't have internet so i can't do my job. I did all the basic stuff and even went to the nearest apple store for a services, even the technician there don't know what's the problem and asked me to contact the advisor again. I don't have enough money to buy a new phone Apple. Please Apple fix this or atleast give me a new phone since it's not the owner's fault :(
