Does "it worked" mean it connected to the network but now not? Try restarting your phone. Also set network selection to automatic.

Yes, it worked means it was connected to the network. I even made a call. Now, it's not detecting network. I have shut down the phone, even removed the sim card, reinserted sim again and powered on the phone yet it's not working.

Not dectecting or not connecting? Try searching manually and see if Public Mobile is in the list. If It's not, it could be a network problem. Unlikely to have happened right after activating, but if you check your IMEI, is it it listed as clean? Go to devicecheck.ca to look.

Yes it's not detecting network, so it can neither connect automatically or manually. The phone is clean, I checked with IMEI number. Infact, I bought the phone new from Telus before I ported to public mobile.

Not detecting in manual list could mean the phone is broken, or LTE and 3g are disabled. Public doesn't have a 2g network.The network could be down, or network is weak there.

I think it's network issue. I tried again searching manually, it discovered public mobile. I selected public mobile, but after long attempt to register on public mobile, it came out that it could not be registered on public mobile. It shows selected network (public mobile) not available. However, I have been using public mobile at the same location before now

@isaacowolabi Try the sim in another phone if it works then it's a phone issue. If it still doesn't work then there is an account provisional issue. You will need to submit a ticket to PM for help.

Is the phone paid for?

Can you change the network type? ie. LTE/4G/UMTS/WCDMA/HSDPA/3G.

Yes "LTE/WCDMA/GSM" is selected. other available network is "WCDMA/GSM" and :GSM only"

@isaacowolabi hi what's the make and model of the device? reset your network settings

1. Open Settings>General Management>Reset
2. Tap Reset Network Settings>Tap Reset Settings
If prompted enter your pin, passcode
3. Tap Reset Settings 1 more time to confirm
4. Restart

remove your sim and try it in another device
