If your iPhone is stuck in SOS mode, restoring network settings can be a simple and effective solution. The good thing about this method is that it won't delete your data, but it will reset all network-related settings, including Wi-Fi passwords, VPNs, and Bluetooth pairing information. So, if your problem is related to network connectivity, restoring network settings will usually solve most problems.
- Open Settings, then go to General.
- Scroll to the bottom and select Reset.
- Select Erase All Content and Settings.
- You will be prompted to enter your Apple ID password, and once you confirm the action, the restore will begin.
Note: Make sure you have backed up your data beforehand to prevent data loss.
After the restore, your phone should be back from SOS mode and function normally.
