Ever since iOS arrived, it is causing a lot of errors for iPhone users. Now after so many issues, a new one I heard is No Service after updating iPhone to iOS 17. This is happening because iOS has a bug, or it might be possible that one of the carriers which you are using like AT&T or Sprint or Verizon, or T-Mobile carriers are under maintenance.
We can’t judge the main reason behind No service after updating to the latest iOS version. However, instead of cursing the carrier or recent iOS; we better try some potential solutions that may solve today’s issue. The iPhone No Service issue is also indicated in the suburbs area due to the lack of coverage as well as after airplane mode, battery replacement, and after screen replacement.
You have never had iPhone NO service problems. Henceforth, you are worrying and thinking that no service is the hardware problem (due to the component that has failed on the main logic board) or a software bug.
