When your phone is stuck in SOS mode and basic toggles don't work, a Force Restart is your best friend. When a standard restart doesn’t cut it, try a Force Restart. It’s a bit more "aggressive" than a normal shutdown and can clear out deeper hardware glitches. If that still doesn't work, the issue might be physical. Grab a paperclip, pop out your SIM tray, and make sure there’s no dust or grime on the card. Re-seating it firmly often clears up that "SOS only" message and gets you back to scrolling in no time If you use an eSIM, go into your cellular settings to ensure the line is toggled "On." Occasionally, a failing SIM card needs to be replaced entirely by your carrier to restore a stable connection.
