    The Sim may have moved slightly and lost contact.

     

    Try in this order:

    1. Turn on Airplane mode for about 1  or 2 minutes, then turn it off.

         if that Deos not work,

    2. Reset: Hold down the Home and power buttons until the Apple logo shows up.  Let the Phone reboot.

         if that does not work:

    3. Open the Sim tray with the provided sim tool or a paper clip, and reseat the sim card.

          if that does not work:

    4. Try a different sim card from your carrier if you have one available you can borrow.

          if that does not work:

    5. Contact your carrier, the sim may have developed a fault.
