iPhone 4S is loosing connection with Carrier after iOS5 update

Nope. Did that, didn't help. Well - it did for about 4 hours or so. Then it was sim failure all over again. So it's not a solution. :-(

Rodrigo, tô com o mesmo problema na Tim, mas meu SIM foi comprado na 2a feira e tava funcionando normal, ou seja, era um SIM zerado que após a atualização começou a dar problema. Falaram alguma coisa pra vc na TIM? Tô sem saber o que fazer. O seu tá funcionando normal até agora?

Entao, o meu funciona normal com o micro sim da vivo e da tim do meu pai, ja com o meu o problema persiste, oque pra mim deve ser problema do chip ser antigo e cortado... Mas o meu ainda nao funciona, amanha vou pedir um chip novo na tim pq o meu realmente esta precisando..., em todo caso, como disseram, deve chegar algum update, nem que seja so nas configs da operadora.

Exact Same Issue:

Factory Unlocked Iphone 4S 64 GB, has entirely given up the ghost after the firmware update. Keeps coming up with NO SIM / Invalid SIM and SEARCHING. All after IOS 5.01 upgrade. There I was thinkign the battery life was just an issue and now im faced with a dud handset. This is getting ridiculous ! Even tried my wifes Iphone 4 SIM and still got the same error utter nonsense. Why on earth would you release an update that potentially nukes the phone ?

Here in Czech Republic is a real mess!!!! I've already changed twice the sim cart of t-mobile but nothing changed. I can't call and I can'T receive a phone call. THIS IS A SHAME APPLE!!!!!. You can't make pay 14500 czk a phone and it doesn't work, and moreover t-mobile is your partner everywhere. Besides here in czech republic there is no phone number for a support of repairing the iphone. I want my money back. I'm incredibly angry

The same situation in Russia. And we do not have opportunity to come back to 5.0! Awful. 630 euros for what - beauty box?

Sporadically I changed my language to english and the problem stoped. What is this?

Im from México, I have use my iPhone 4S for a entire week then I update to iOs 5.0.1 and I never have signal! I have to turn on the airplane mode like 5 times Per minute!!! Heeeelp! New iOs! We are paying to have this issues?

Same problem here in Cambodia. Its a huge mess. I've met 3 iPhone 4S users who complain about the same issue. I am beyond angry right now. This new 4S should be a better updated for the iPhone, not a 800USD brick! If Steve were here, he would have fix this faster!

I can't understand what Apple is waiting to update again the firmware, or to refund all the iphones sold, because this situation that is impossible to call is almost spread all over the world. In czech republic more than 5000 users of iphone 4s and t-mobile aren't able to call and use the iphone. APPLE WAKE UP PLEASE

Same problem here.

everything ok after the 5.01 update...

BTW rebooting the phone IS NOT A SOLUTION!

E aí Rodrigo, trocou seu SIM? Tá funcionando normal? O meu já é 128k, não quero gastar trinta reais pra nada, acho que não vai adiantar eu trocar, troquei ele na semana passada antes do update. Mas se você me disser que tá funcionando normal depois da troca vou trocar o meu. Obrigado!

I had the same problem, but i read sowewhere that the microsim in the 4s is more critical.

My sim was a normal sim, cutted by hand.

This worked over a year fine with my iPhone 4.

And the first week with my 4s also no problems.

Since 5.0.1 it didnt work anymore.

Totday i went to the Telfort shop (the Netherlands)

And there i got à new real micro-sim.

After it was activated (10 min) i had NO PROBLEMS anymore....

How hapiness could be so simple... ;)
