Samsung Galaxy S22, S22 Plus, and S22 Ultra Not Registered on Network, How to Fix?

If you keep getting the “Not registered on network” error on your Samsung Galaxy phone, one of the solutions below will likely fix the issue. Keep trying the solutions in order until your phone starts working properly.

Solution 1: Make Sure Flight Mode is Turned Off

First thing first, check if the Flight mode is turned on. When it is turned on, you can’t make or receive calls. The same is true for text messages. In Flight mode, the device has no access to cellular connectivity. Thus, you would want to disable it, if it’s already enabled.

To check if the Flight mode is enabled or disabled, open the Settings app on your Samsung phone and tap on Connections. Now, you can see whether the Flight mode is turned on or off.

Once you’ve disabled the Flight mode, wait for 2-3 minutes for the device to register the network. You should now be able to make calls and messages.

Solution 2: Restart Your Samsung Galaxy

Restarting the device is a common and effective dose to fix minor issues on your phone, including network issues. It also clears out temporary cache and storage, further speeding up your phone. After your device restarts, it scans for the networks again. This could fix the “Not registered on network” error on your Samsung Galaxy S22, S22 Plus, or S22 Ultra.

Solution 3: Reinsert the SIM Card

One of the common reasons why many phones run into network issues is the improper insertion of the SIM card. Turn off your Samsung Galaxy phone before ejecting the SIM tray. Safely take out the SIM card and check for any physical damage before putting it in again.

If you can see damage on the SIM card, you’ll need to replace it. In case of no damage, clean the SIM card and properly insert it. Once done, reboot your phone and check if the problem is fixed.

Solution 4: Manually Choose Your Network

All Android phones, including your Samsung Galaxy, are set to automatically scan and select the network carrier, which does a pretty good job. But, when you face a network issue such as a “Not registered on network” error, you should try selecting the network manually to see if it can fix the issue.

Here are the steps you need to follow:

1. Open the Settings app on your phone.
2. Tap on Connections.
3. Tap on Mobile networks.
4. Click Network operators.
5. Turn off the Select automatically option. Your phone will look for available networks.
6. Choose your carrier from the available networks list.

If the manual network selection method does not fix the problem, set the Automatic selection mode again and move on to the next solution.

Solution 5: Select a Different Network Mode

You do not get the same network strength at every place you visit. You’d agree with this. Also, you do not get 5G and 4G support everywhere. Thus selecting a different network mode could fix the network issues on your Samsung Galaxy phone.

Follow these required steps:

1. Open the Settings app on your Samsung phone.
2. Tap on Connections and click Mobile networks.
3. Tap on Network mode.
4. Choose LTE/3G/2G (auto connect).

When you select LTE/3G/2G (auto connect), your smartphone will first try to connect to 4G LTE. If it fails or gets less network strength on that network mode, it will switch to 3G. Thus, you’d get the best network coverage at your place, which would fix the “Not registered on network” issue.

Solution 6: Reset the Network Settings

If changing the network mode and manual network selection methods did not work for you, resetting the network settings could fix the issue. It will reset all network settings. Before we tell you the steps, keep in mind that this will delete all saved Wi-Fi passwords and paired Bluetooth devices. When you are okay with this, follow the required steps:

1. Open the Settings app on your phone.
2. Scroll down to General management and tap on it.
3. Scroll down to the Reset option and then tap on it.
4. Tap on Reset network settings.

If your Samsung phone has more than one SIM, select the SIM card causing the problem and click Reset settings.

Solution 7: Update Your Phone

Network issues can occur due to a software bug or other system issues. To fix the issue, you can try updating your Samsung phone to the latest software version. The latest version might include a fix for this issue and other improvements.

To grab the latest software version, follow these steps:

1. Open the Settings app.
2. Scroll down to Sofware update and tap on it.
3. Tap on Download and install. Your phone will look for a new software version.
4. Download and install any pending updates (if available).

Solution 8: Update APN Settings

If you are getting the “Not registered on network” error on your phone after recently changing your service provider, you should manually update the APN settings to fix the issue.

Contact your service provider to get the APN settings. Once you have the required details, follow these steps:

1. Open the Settings app and go to Connections.
2. Tap on Mobile networks.
3. Click Access Point Names.
4. Tap on Add in the top right corner to create new APN settings.
5. Enter the required details.
6. Tap on the three-dot icon in the top right corner and click Save.
7. Go back to the previous screen and select the new APN.

Solution 9: Contact Your Mobile Carrier

If you still get the “Not registered on network” error on your Samsung phone, try contacting your mobile carrier to check if the service is under maintenance or facing downtime.

You may not make a call or send a message during downtime or an outage.
