IPhone 5 stuck Searching for Service after dropping in water?
Yesterday I dropped my iPhone in the water and had it on rice for the past 24 hours. Today I took it out and turned it on and it works! Now the only problem is that where the cellular service bars usually are, it just says "searching". I've tried taking out the sim card and using computer air cleaner to clear out the slot, I tried resetting it, and it's still stuck on "searching". Wi-Fi still works. What can I do?
Better consult to the iphone center might have problem in the board
I'd go to an apple technician. Since its Wi-Fi is still working and if you have insurance they might be able to fix it for free.
- Why is my iPhone 5c stuck on 'searching'? Since about 12 yesterday my phone has been stuck with 'searching' and nothing else. I've tried everything from power button reset to full factory reset, including every fix that I've seen on the Internet. There's also nothing wrong with my network in my area. So what's wrong with it?
- Unresponsive screen after dropping it in water? So i dropped my iphone 4s in water. I tried to turn off my phone immediately but i had to eventually hard shut down my phone since the screen already stopped responding to touch. So i put it in rice and 5 days later, everything works fine except the screen. The screen turns on and is clear but does not respond when i touch it. Basically making my phone useless since i can't unlock it. Anything i can do?
- Sprint Iphone 4 goes from 5 bars to No service and Searching? I called sprint and they tried everything on their end and told me to reset the network settings, even resetting the entire phone, and nothing helped. I read somewhere that the antenna is touchy on these phones and wearing a case may help? I would like to hear any fixes and if anyone else has had these issues. It worked completely fine the first day I had it and then it just started losing service for no reason.
- Sound doesn't work on iPhone 5 after dropping it in water? I dropped my iPhone in the bath when it was in its case. The case covered everything except the screen. I've done this before with my old iPhone but that was playing up constantly afterwards and then broke. The only thing I've noticed this time is that the sound has stopped working it says the volume but I can't hear it. I've tried turning the "ringer" on and off but nothing. I've turned it off and back on again but still nothing happens
