Answer to "iPhone 5s constantly searching" 04/30/2018
Hi dj holley, 1 ) Restore with iTunes after all data get backed up. 2) if searching issue exists after restore just check the IMEI (type *#06# on dialer ) 3) if IMEI status " null" definitely baseband chip issue. if IMEI number shows you need to check the TRX section of the logic board.
