apple update 17.3.1 issue

I updated my iPhone as requested by Apple and now my phone is in an SOS mode. Its literally useless if I'm not on wifi. I'm traveling this morning and being forced to obtain a manual ticket because of an apparent software glitch.


Will someone from Apple please respond and let us know if this is an internal problem or if it's with my carrier. The problem only existed after I updated the Apple software. Please help me....

iPhone 6s

Apple doesn't respond here in this user-to-user forum.


There is a massive cellular outage in the U.S. There is nothing you can do until the network issues are resolved. You can try using Wi-Fi calling.


AT&T customers report a massive outage, disrupting phone service across America


It does seem like people are saying there service is being restored.

If you have service with either AT&T or Verizon they had a major outage this morning.
