Problem 

Possible causes 

Possible solution 

If you are not able to 
connect to the network, the 
phone will continue to send 
out signals as it attempts to 
locate a base station. Doing 
so consumes battery power 
and will consequently 
shorten standby time. 

Change your location to one 
where the network is 
accessible, or temporarily 
turn off your phone. 

Cannot turn 
your phone on 

Battery power has been 
depleted.

testing. 

The nano-SIM card is 
inserted improperly. 

Insert the nano-SIM card 
properly. 

There is debris on the 
nano-SIM card contacts. 

Use a soft, dry cloth to clean 
the nano-SIM card contacts. 

Unable to 
connect to the 
network 

The nano-SIM card is 
invalid. 

Contact your service 
provider. 

You are not within the 
network’s service area. 

Check the service area with 
your service provider.
