Cannot connect to cellular data services

mi5259 — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 07:01:21 GMT

Hey,

I was just outside the country for a month and now that i'm back i'm unable to connect to data services. My phone shows it's connected to 3G but using any data just brings up an error saying i haven't registered any cellular data services. Checked my plan and i have plenty of data available.

Phone i'm using is the iphone 6se

Thanks!

Did you check you APN settings. They may have change to another network but not changed back when you got back here.

Was the phone used on a different carrier network? I am not totally familiar with iOS, but I thought there is some kind of carrier reset function to address connectivity issues like this.

Yes I got a SIM card while in Japan and used that while there.

I've tried resetting both Cellular data and Network settings but no luck.

It does show isp.mb.com under cellular data services hotspot though. That doesn't go away when i reset

Can you confirm that the SIM pin is off, although it probably isn't that, some carriers apparently have then defaulted on.

-Did your account get suspended from lack of payment? Because of the message it seems like an account issue.

Yes SIM PIN is off.

Also, if it helps, I'm able to make phone calls which is good just no data services.

How about receiving calls and texts in/out?

@mi5259 I think you may need to do a factory reset. Please make sure you back up anything you want to keep that isn't already backed up or synced to iCloud/Google/etc first.

I would attempt an "all settings" reset, if that does't work do a back up and then reset it and "set up as new". do minimal setup and test if it is working. You can always restore backup if it doesn't work.

Resetting All settings didn't work.

I'll try factory reset later tonight

Figured it out.

It must have installed a cellular profile or something. I found it under General Settings and deleted it. Once gone i was connected without issue.

Cheers

Glad to hear you got this sorted. I have heard of this issue before but have never seen it myself so I did not know what to tell you to check.

Congrats and welcome.

EDIT: Exactly where was this profile? Was it it's own heading under General Settings?

I’m having similar problems. Network reset has not fixed the problem and nor has turning phone of, taking SIM card out and restarting phone. Could you guide me as to how to do as you suggest and turn the SIM pin off so I can see if that is a solution? Thanks

Would you mind starting a new topic. Just to avoid confussion between your issue and the this one.

Go to Public Mobile Community

At the bottom select the category, in this case I would use Phones & Hardware

then select New Topic

Thanks
