No mobile service after iOS 9.0.2 update

I have the same issue after downloading the IOS9. Hope someone from Apple would reply to this thread with a fix quickly. I get no service and I tried everything mentioned here and every reset you think of. Help Apple!!!!!

Exactly the same problem - no mobile services. Even got a new SIM from O2 in the UK.

Doing a hard reset and restore but not very hopeful after looking at some other threads. Apple Store in Edinburgh doesn't have any evening appointments for over a week and I've already wasted a lot of time on this.

I am also facing the same problem ... below is the screen shot of mine. this started after I upgraded to 9.0.2.

Any solution?

I am also having the same issue my 5S device. Nothing fixes this.

I had this problem, too. I updated to 9.0.2 last night and when I woke up, my phone said "No Service". After doing a hard restart, it said "Searching.." and wouldn't connect.

I tried resetting Network information, hard resets, finally decided to clear the phone and restore from a backup. When I restarted, initially there was "No Service". After I restored from a previous backup, it now shows AT&T, 4 bars and LTE. Software is still 9.0.2.

Not sure if this is a good fix for everyone, but it worked for me (for now).

iPhone 6, 9.0.2, AT&T Cell Service

Same issue. CallEd support and was told it was a failed SIM card or SIM card tray failure. I guess because it happened after I installed 9.0.2 is only bad luck. They left me with no options only to sent the phone to apple for repairs. No issues with phone yesterday. Only started after update

I don't think it's a SIM card reader issue. That's what I was told at first. If your iPhone shows no service then the phone is reading your SIM. Call Apple back and let them know your reader is working. Try to reset all settings, and if that does not work, place the iPhone in recovery mode then restore the iPhone and set up as new. If it does not work, Call Apple and let them know it's due to IOS 9. Hope this helps!

I had the same problem. Managed to speak to someone from apple on their chat facility. It turns out iOS 9.0.2. hadn't downloaded properly on my iPhone 5S. I had to upgrade iTunes on my computer to the latest version, then plug my phone into my computer and carry out the upgrade via iTunes on the computer. It worked! I have a functioning mobile phone again. So worth a try. Good luck everyone!

Mobile -> Mobile Data Network -> Reset Settings

I have incurred the same issue since the IOS 9.02 upgrade with phone constantly searching for a network. I have the latest ITunes software downloaded on my laptop however when I connect my iPhone it doesn't recognise it |(iPhone 5s||) - instead it identifies my phone as an iPhone 4 which is my sons one. When I access the phone and go into the software update it says IOS 9.02 and that my software is up to date. Any suggestions ?

Exactly the same issues with my iphone 6s, I have tried everything, 'no service' at all

this needs fixing and fast, I am paying for a phone i am unable to use !!

I had the same issue and after trying all kind of resets I got it now working.

I summary what I tried:

1. Turned on and off (normal and with the wake and on/off button), airplane mode, reset networks, etc. In my opinion you can skip these steps since I don't think they made a difference.

2. Performed "Restore Factory Settings" and still didn't work.

3. Then I applied a "Restore from Backup" from iTunes (even though it was a backup with the already malfunctioning 9.0.2 upgrade). After this, the 3G sign appeared again!! I have to say that I am not absolutely sure if the "Restore Factory Settings" is needed but here I am stating what the process I followed and worked.

Eventually managed to get access to my network. It might not work for you however what I did was delete all the iTunes software from the laptop. You need to do it in the order as shown in the following link (I remember doing this to fix another issue previously)

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204313.

I then reinstalled iTunes and when I attached my phone it now recognised my phone in the correct way. After that .... and you may want to try this first if your iTunes recognises your phone....... is go into phone settings > general > scroll down to the bottom and go to reset and select reset all settings. Another one to try although it didn't work for me was to go into reset and select reset network settings.

Good luck !!

I had the exact same problem after updating to 9.0.2, I either was constantly searching for service or I either had no service. Eventually I was able to get service, it would only last for no more than 10 minutes. So I went to my phone provider (at&t) and they changed my sim card. Nothing changed. I then called apple support, and they advised me to restore my phone completely, which that would re-download 9.0.2. After doing this my phone has been staying connected to my network. I still feel that navigation is still a little rougher than 9.0.1, but I'm sure they will fix that soon enough. When you restore, of course remember to back up via itunes on the computer and icloud (as an extra source) and then be sure to update your itunes to 12.3 or else you wont be able to back up your phone via itunes on your computer. hope everyone can find some resolve and Apple quickly fixes the issue!!!!

My iPhone 6 lost cellular connectivity after the upgrade to iOS 9.0.2. I tried all ways of resetting and restoring the phone with no success. I believe the issue is that the upgrade somehow physically damages the antenna. My phone had to be replaced.
