seaching... but not connecting

Jay D

Has anyone ever experienced this problem?

Basically it's searching for the network but that's it, it keeps searching. It was working fine till last night, I switched it off for a while and when I knocked it back on this is what I get, been like that all day.

Tried a few things, restarting, power reset, airplane mode on/off. Won't be able to make it to the shop today, anyone any advise please?

ie iPhone 4s

What network? Did you buy the phone new or only get it recently second hand?

Jay D

Meteor got it new out of carphone warehouse.

guil

I had similar today with eMobile. Try restring network settings.
Settings>general>reset

Jay D

Yeah cheers tried that too. Everything else recommended online I've found I've tried. May as well just bring it into CPWH tomorrow.

I wouldnt hold any hope of them being able to do anything. Generally cpw staff haven't a clue. Have you tried removing the sim and call meteor to check everything is ok on your account. Failing that a restore is all you can do and then ring apple

Jay D

ok cheers man, still under guarantee and from what I've read online it could need replacing. I'm going to try someone's sim just to check it out and if not then restore. Cheers.

guil

Even if it needs replacing I'd get it done direct from apple. Much quicker turnaround than if you bring it back to cpw

Jay D

It's working now but hopefully don't have to do a full restore every so often now. Thanks for that.
