I have been experiencing the same thing.
Using iPhone4 with iOS5, never JB before.

Keep on searching for network.
When finally found network, I couldn't send SMS, sms keep in "sending" mode.
I couldn't make call, when press Call icon, phone will hang at dialling mode.

freaking frustrated.
Any help?

Same problem that I experience after upgrading to IOS5. Thought my phone got problem. The phone will not reconnect back to carrier once you lose it. e.g. Entering the lift and exiting the lift. You need to restart the Iphone. A complete fresh restore will immediately solve this issue; however, same problem may recur. I have some gut feeling that IOS5 is limiting the reconnection timeout duration to carrier once you lose it. This is to preserve the battery life. I am totally fine before upgrading from IOS4.1. Another possible root cause will be IOS5 is conflicting with Malaysia Telco if all Telco user like DiGi and Maxis are having similar issue. Let's hope this is fixed asap!

That's something annoying, no turn back. I start to blame my itchy hand to upgrade to IOS5 to try out the iCloud features.

No worry too much.

Hey guys! i upgraded my iphone to iOS 5.0.1 today...so far so good! problem-free thus far. At least the NO SERVICE issue doesn't happen..

Still observing anyway, hopefully will be fine.......

IOS5 during initial restore, no service issue won't occur but it happens after a few days. Let's observe.

One way to check whether your phone could reconnect the carrier is to press *#06# to check your IMEI. If IMEI appears mean your phone is okay. If there is no response with this command means your iPhone is not connected to the carrier. People can call you but your phone will not ring. It's like your phone lose its identity to the carrier. That's what I observe. Some time a reboot helps. Some time it won't. A restore can immediately resolve this but possibility of recurrence is there.

Highly suspect some conflict between hardware and software.

I had activated it before. But this newly fresh restore still haven't done anything. So far so good. Cause i can't even think of anything else would make my phone potentially targeted by the network lost of death.

So my hypothesis is any activated imessage users, no matter deactivated in the future or not, will increase the probability of network loss of death.

Need more testers to my support my hypothesis  laugh.gif

Apparently your hypotheses is incorrect. I have never use imessage and I am still having the no connection error. Newly fresh restore will fail in a day or two.

Untethered JB released? Feel like using JB to respring instead of having restart the non JB IOS5.01 sad.gif

My problem happens every time I go in / out the lift. Jeez...

I guess either restore back again or reset all settings. It should work if yours is unlocked set.

No guessing. It doesnt work.

Do a restore and don't restart/close ur phone if possible, just charge before it gets empty. I notice the problem comes back after frequent reboots.

Done that for quite some times. Problem recurs in 3 to 4 days. I wonder 4S will have similar issue.

Mine was running Version: 5.0.1 (9A405) upgraded from ios4.3.3

The gist of this solution is you should install fresh copy of ios5.0.1 & to factory setting. NEVER NEVER install to backup copy in your 1st run.

Once your iphone runs in brand new fresh copy of ios5.0.1, you can then proceed to installing your apps, contacts etc by clicking restore from backup. Definitely you will not encounter the Carrier signal problems again!

Not true. I try and it recurs.
