Did the SIM get wet as well?

Have you taken it apart to inspect it or no?

Ive tried different sims,it has been cleaned in an ultrasonic bath but problem still persists

check signal area on board.

I reflowed the baseband chip yesterday but problem was still there,i have now put the phone back together today and it has now fully restored with full signal,i was sure this phone was never going to get signal again but it seems the reflow has done its job!

Please help me, I have a similar problem, with an i5c, at first they updated it, and it was in iTunes mode, with error -1, I made reflow to the baseband IC, and managed to restore the iPhone, but it happens to me, "No service", not blacklisted or anything
