Hola, @djsnd! Thanks for creating a profile and chiming in with your ticket numbers.
From the sounds of it, simply switching the SIM is causing the messages to generate. I only have one user's ticket numbers. If any other users have ticket numbers, please pass them along as this will speed up the resolution time. If you do no have a ticket number, I'd like to send you a PM to collect a few pieces of info so you can be added to the list. Please let me know if you'd like me to PM you.
My case links to this.
I have IPhone 6s Plus and with Mint mobile previously. I switched to T-Mobile and my IPhone keeps running into "No service" every 1 or 2 days. Whence this thing happens, no way to get t mobile service back unless I restore the IPhone through I-tune.
I struggled to fix this problem with no result, Apple store tested my phone and said no hardware failure at all.
Then I took out the Sim from IPhone and plug back to my old Android phone, immediately I got this CN messages. So I starts to doubt that this message is the caveat that turn my iPhone into a status that rejecting T Mobile service.
To test it, I put SIM card back to iPhone, and reset network, the iPhone restarts the network searching, when it ran into "no service" results, take out SIM to Android phone and get CN message immediately, again.
So obviously this CN message caused IPhone lost services from T-Mobile.
I have another IPhone 7, switched from t-mobile service from Mint, but no problem.
I compare these two phones setting one by one, and solved the problem, no more CN message at all.
1. Remove the T-Mobile Sevice App
2. Disable iMessage / Facetime service, if you had iPhone before, you may get this CN through iMessage..
3. Plug in Mint SIM card back to IPhone, can go to APN setting page, hit reset. This will clear Mint services left over message.
After doing that, so far my IPhone works fine. No more "No Service" status.
Further question ? How do I disable/block this CN from phone setting? I am sure my fixing just temporary fixing, cause it looks a bug of IPhone, more like a virus, if anyone send this bad CN message to IPhone, IPhone will lost carrier service.
