No service and works, no service again.
The wife has an iPhone 6. And Litterally just after she finished a phone call, the phone went into no service.
So tried my Sim (different network) and still the same.
Did a reboot, network reset, switch from airplane mode and back. Still shows baseband number when dialing *#number
And a check mend report shows the number imei is still clear/not cloned.
Service will randomly come back for a while, then go.
Replaced the top antenna, still done the same thing. Replaced the bottom antenna/charging port. And it worked for 3 hours, then just went back to no service again.
Only thing left is a factory reset, but I really doubt it's something like that. Plus my PC doesn't seem to like restoring iphones. I always get iTunes errors during the process.
I'm out of ideas now.
Thanks.

OK. So done a restore. It lasted 24 hours, and it still does the same thing. It works, then goes into "no service"
Now wondering if it's board level repair?

Does the phone have a history of water damage?
I see and fix a lot of phones. Nowadays, cellular issues are nearly always software. There are next to no parts in the actual cellular system of the phones and there are 12 billion parts in the software/firmware.
Personally, I would only suspect board level issues if the phone has been wet and/or had a severe drop. But at that point you are looking at a couple hundred dollars for the repair and a new iP 6 is around the same price.
Keep thinking software. What is the reception like when this occurs. Does it happen with the same frequency in high reception areas as low reception? Does wifi being on affect it?

It's been stuck on searching/no service for over a day now. I've just put my Three sim in, and it detects it's Three, but still on searching/no service.
She's normally got 3 to 4 bars out of 5 where we are. Network I'm on with my Galaxy S6 gets full signal, but still does the same thing in her phone....Nothing.
There's a shop in Nottingham who can do board level repair for £70, so will be sending it off to him.
Hopefully he'll be able to get to the bottom of it, and then I'll post on here what I get back.

I'm familiar with the Nottingham guys. I've heard nothing but good things about them.
Please update. I like "strange" issues like this because this is how I learn new things. I am very curious to hear what they find.
