Solution 4: Call your Service provider

If all the solutions you performed have no avail, then there is a chance that this is a network issue.

You can call your service provider about the issue and tell the representative about the problem you are experiencing.

If this is just a network problem they will advised as to when the problem will be resolved.

There are also times when you will be advised to hard reset your Android phone so make sure to create a backup of your important files and data before you actually do that.

On the other hand, if the problem is with the network, then you will have to wait until the problem is resolved.

Most of the time, you don’t have to do anything on your phone.
