iPhone 4S "no service" problem

hello all,


Just got my iPhone 4S 18hrs ago and it wen to "no service" like 3 times (so far)!!

  • I have changed carrier setting to manual I can select my network but still "no service"
  • I turned on then off "airplane mode" it goes searching... then "no service"
  • it only work when I restart or reinsert the SIM


Is this common? do I have to worry ?


Appreciate your inputs.


Thanks,

Abdullah

I had the same problem today, once I put the phone on airplane mode then turned it off it showed service again. If this continues I will take it back to the store.

Sorry for the confusion, I did a search for the "No Service" problem and had not realised I had gone to page 40 of a very long discussion. i assumed that my post would have gone under the posting that helped me.


I followed the suggestion offered by Sqoh on 7 July 2012 which suggested going to settings then general and reseting the network settings. All data was kept intact on on restarting I was back to my usual service.
