What goes out after 15 minutes? You need to be more specific.
Also what does it say under Settings > General > About > Network (Hopefully Sim not provisioned or Phone not allowed.)
Also there's plenty of Antenna ribbon flex cables inside the phone. Which one?
The L shaped one is for 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz Wi-Fi + Bluetooth along with the small Wi-Fi antenna housing piece at the top left of the phone inside that has like 5 screws on it and two screws to top of housing side.
The antenna cable that plugs near the battery connector I think is for 3G cellular signal, could be 4G as well but I may be wrong as I'm not sure.

The gps is inaccurate, the Bluetooth is spotty and the 2.4 wifi is affected also...the ribbon I speak of is the L shaped antennae and under about/network, it says AT&T
Is the iPhone metal housing bent in any way as in like a full bend where it's not straight any more when you look from it at the sides?
My guess is it's an issue with the Bluetooth / Wi-Fi IC chip on the logic board, either from physical damage drops (especially bent housing) or liquid damage which would require micro soldering.
No bends.... no drops and no water damage
Sim show but sim not provisioed
