How to Fix the “Not Registered on Network” Error on Android

 

Why Are You Getting The "Not Registered On Network" Error?


If you've ever received the "not registered on network" error on your Samsung Galaxy or Android phone, it's likely that something is wrong with your carrier settings.


It's also possible that there's a problem with your phone, it is possible that the software has not been updated and your phone is running an older version of this software. The "Not Registered On Network" error is a common Android issue that can occur even after rooting your device on T-Mobile, Vodafone, AT&T, Airtel, and Rogers.


Also, if your phone is carrier-locked, it may display such an error.

Your Android phone is unable to connect to your carrier when the "Phone Not Registered on Network" error appears. This disables the phone, text, and internet functions.

Unlocking your phone may be advantageous.


The "Not registered on network" problem might appear for a number of reasons on your Samsung Galaxy device. The failure to connect to the cellular tower could be the result of your device going into aeroplane mode.


The gadget may have a hardware problem or your SIM card may not be properly inserted.




Whatever the cause, following this guide's instructions will enable you to quickly correct the problem and reconnect to the network. There won't be any "not registered on a network" issues anymore.


Method 1 -Turn the Airplane Mode on and off.


Enable aeroplane mode on your phone, then turn it off if you ever face problems with the network. By doing this, you disconnect from all of your networks and then create a new connection.


That is useful when you encounter problems like "Not Registered on Network."




These actions should be followed to disengage from aeroplane mode.




  1. Make sure you have a mobile data plan that is active and valid with your current carrier and that your reception is good.

  2. Make sure the aeroplane mode is not on. On occasion, we unintentionally turn on this function. Open the Airplane mode menu under Settings > Connections. Turn the switch knob.

  3. Reinstall your SIM card and make sure it is inserted properly. Also, look for any damage. Put your SIM card in another phone if you have one nearby and attempt to make a call.

  4. Switch off your phone.

 

Method 2  - Rebooting and Reinserting 

If turning on and off aeroplane mode didn't resolve the problem, try restarting your phone to see if it improves your ability to connect with your carrier. All of the phone's services, including those that deal with the network, are restarted when you restart your phone.


If this approach initially fails, give it another shot. Take the following actions:


  1. Holding down both the Power and Home (or Volume Down) buttons at the same time will turn off your phone.

  2. Wait for two minutes with the phone off.

  3. Remove the SIM card and battery from the phone after 2 minutes (only if your phone's battery can be removed).

  4. Ten times in a row, press the Power and Home (or Volume Down) buttons simultaneously.

  5. Hold the power and home (or Volume Down) keys for a further 1-3 minutes.

  6. Afterward, put the batteries and SIM card in place (Only if your phone battery can be removed)

  7. Your phone should now be on.

  8. Take out your SIM card, then put it back in while your phone is on. Then do it five more times. (On some Android devices, removing the battery is required before removing the SIM card. Please skip this step if this is the problem.)

  9. You will see a notice stating that you must "Restart your Phone"; click it.

  10. Your Android phone should finally start up without any issues.

 

Method 3 - The SIM Card

If the aforementioned approaches weren't successful, the issue is likely with your SIM Card.

The inability of your phone to read your SIM card is one of the causes of the "Not Registered on Network" issue. It's possible that your SIM card wasn't correctly fitted into your phone, which can lead to a number of network problems.


Try re-inserting the card first. To check the SIM card, remove it from the SIM tray and examine it. Verify that it is not broken. If so, ask your carrier for a replacement by calling them.


Method 4 - Updating the software on your Android phone

It's possible that the network issue on your phone is related to the fact that you're using an outdated version of the Android operating system. It's common for newer software versions to repair vulnerabilities in older applications.



Consequently, it would be wise to update your phone's firmware to the most recent version and see whether that solves the network issue. The most recent Android OS version is available for free phone update. You may get started right away with just an active internet connection.
