Go here to Fix "No Service": If you See No Service or Searching on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


As for SOS:

If you do not need to use SOS, then cancel it, and say "pocket tap"

  1. Go Here: Use Emergency SOS on your iPhone - Apple Support
  2. Scroll to: End a call
  3. As it Reads: "If you accidentally call emergency services, you can end the call. Tap the End Call button, then confirm that you want to stop calling."
