Q: iphone carrier searching * can't be activated after reset
my iphone 6+ was stuck on searching the carrier. everything else worked fine. we tried to reset it after backup and now it doesn't activate.
it is an imei problem.
i don't know if this can be fixed. the apple support here in Albania said it was a factory fault but even if i was entiteled to a replacement, they won't replace it if i don't give them them original purchase receipt which i don't have.
why do they need it if they see it in the system that it is still in warranty and that i am entiteled to a replacement?
Please inform me what to do as i can not find the receipt. does this mean that i'm stuck with a non working iphone? or just they are not enough informed because i don't see why do they need the receipt if they can check in their system that i'm within warranty.
thank you for your answers
iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9.3.5, null
