My iphone 5 goes "no service".

When my iphone 5 goes out of network, "no service" shows. But the phone doesn't search for network, even if there is, untill I tell the phone to search for network. Why?

iPhone 5, iOS 6

I've found this same problem on my iphone and others as well. To our suprise, after calling, restarting with Airplane Mode, & rebooting, it was simply the case of the iphone.


Try taking off the case of your iphone if you have attempted to fix it with other ways, as it does block internet signal waves around your area. 3G or wi-fi should appear after.

Here's my issue, I brought over a Verizon iPhone 5 from Verizon to T-mobile. For some reason I only get one bar and then it will drop to no service. I'll turn on Airplane mode and off again and nothing. I've tried resetting it to factory defaults and still no luck. Restarts only work for a little bit. I've taken it to the Apple store and they tell me nothing is wrong with the device. I've gone to T-mobile stores, 2 in fact and replaced a sim Card and still no luck. I'm beyond frustrated as this is only happening in my Home area. I've submitted a trouble ticket and that got back that there was no outages in my area. I Don't know what else to really do?
