A few days after the iOS 11 update, my iPhone 7's cellular signal has been inconsistent stating "no service" or "searching" for long periods of time. This happens inside my home and outside. Usually I'm able to connect to my cellular network inside my house, but it's been malfunctioning lately.

TO FIX THE CELLULAR PROBLEM, I'VE TRIED...

• Restarting the iPhone
• Removing the SIM card, gently wiping the SIM card, and blowing inside the SIM card tray hole
• Resetting Network Settings multiple times, and turning ON and OFF Airplane Mode a numerous amount of times.
• Checking for a Carrier Update
• Fiddling with cellular settings such as turning OFF LTE or changing settings within the LTE settings.
• Fiddling with Date and Time settings because apparently setting the date and time automatically causes issues.
• None of these resolved the problem.

If I tried updating my phone to iOS 11.0.1 when the phone was not connected to a cellular network, even if I was connected to wi-fi, I was prompted with the Unable to Verify Update iOS. Yesterday, I miraculously obtained a cellular connection and was able to update my phone to iOS 11.0.1 thinking it would fix my cellular problem. It didn't. When I woke up this morning, the phone was back to "searching" or "no service" even though it was already connected to the Verizon network before and after the update.

During the day, my phone turned itself OFF and ON again prompting me to enter my passcode. This happened about two times within a four minute interval. A few minutes later, my phone turns OFF again and attempts to restart, but this time it never passes the Apple logo. It displays the Apple logo for a few seconds and then the Apple Logo would disappear for few seconds. It would then display the logo again and then disappear. This cycle never ends.

• If i try to put the phone in recovery mode while not connected to a PC, it shuts the phone off.
• If i try to put the phone in Recovery Mode while connected to iTunes, iTunes will prompt me to "Update" my phone stating that it will attempt to reinstall iOS while also keeping my files. Once it tries to install, the iPhone restarts showing the Apple logo with a loading circle underneath, which turns into the loading bar that shows up when you're updating your phone. The loading bar shows up for less than a second then the screen goes black, and the iPhone restarts and automatically launches Recovery Mode. The 4013 error is displayed on-screen and iTunes stops recognizing that the phone is plugged in. Keep in mind that the iPhone is still on the Recovery Mode screen. After reconnecting the lightning cable, iTunes then prompts that the phone cannot be "Updated" so the only other option is to factory reset the iPhone, erase all data and settings, and optionally restore from a back up after the factory reset. The same things happens as before.
• I've tried other programs such as 3u Tools to install iOS. I've tried reinstalling the new BETA iOS 11.1 and the more stable iOS 10.3.3. The same glitch happens where the phone displays the loading bar momentarily before restarting and heading back to Recovery Mode ultimately voiding the update.

Has anyone dealt with this or would like to provide any more things to try? I've never had a problem with an iPhone before when it comes to software, but could it be possible that this is a hardware issue?

I am having issues with my iphone 7, it began in a boot loop, and Apple support told me to restore the problem to fix it. This didn't work and it will constantly sit there rebooting until it dies.

No error's or nothing!

Then I went back to the new screen and got "home button needs service"

I know I did not destroy that home button, but after using 3 different new screens (never used). Help please?

I have a following question, probably you had experienced it as well already.

New screen for iphone 7 doesnt fit right into the frame by the screen connectors. It leaves a little gap instead of perfectly sinking into the frame. If you remove metal plate that hold screen connector in plate it helps. If you force it down and close pentalobes you get a white hue on the screen caused by the pressure of the screen flex cables.

I have experienced this issue several times not and I was wondering if its the quality of new screens (I use original refurbished) or is it something I am not doing right?

UPDATE:

Ran into this issue again but managed to find a real solution. Basically, its the ic (see the picture) on the flex cable of the screen. You need to make sure its on the right position because if its too high it will press metal plate that covers screen connectors on the motherboard. Before you put the metal plate cover that covers the flexes on the screen put it a little bit higher so the flexes stick to it and then slide it down so its in the right position. Good luck!

iPhone 7 rear camera not working (it shows up black) and the flash/flashlight isn't working, anyone know of a fix?

(it's possible that the iPhone 7 was dropped)

So I deleted my finger prints, and then added new ones on. It worked for an hour or so and now It just doesn't take anymore. It's denying my fingerprint either, It just does nothing.

I have separated the lcd from my iPhone 7 but I was a bit to harsh on the little guy and I ripped the home button extension ribbon. Now I am having trouble to find a seller online. Does anyone have one for sale or know where to get one?

Does somebody also have a picture from the ribbon cable? The cable runs underneath the backlight so I can't get it out without damaging my working LCD. I am curious how it looks like. It would also help me out in looking for it online.

I can’t get either an iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus running iOS 11 to get the new copy screen function to work.

I recently replaced my screen on my iPhone 7. It won’t turn on. I’ve tried charging it and checking the cables. It recognizes it in iTunes. What can I do? Help!

i just opened me iPhone 7 to replace the screen. i removed 2 of the tri point y000 screws but the last 2 i can't get to spin. The screws hold down the bracket that protects the battery cable and some other cables.

The Touch ID works perfectly, however, the home button does not click at all. The phone also still vibrates.

Do I need to replace the Taptic Engine? Or what do I need to replace?

Thanks in advance.
