Many
iPhone users are facing the issue that iPhone 6 keeps loosing connection, "no
service". There are issue in network signal of iPhone 6 as no carrier option
settings are available. The iPhone struggled to find any signal in the area and
if you try to search for network in setting there are no option to select carrier
in settings. The carrier option is missing in settings and can't do a manual search.
Even on the latest iOS 11 users are facing the no network issue on iPhone 6s.
The
issue is very annoying as user can’t find carrier option in the setting as
depicted in the pictures. Thus you can’t
select or change the carrier settings. This issue initially may look like a network
issue but the SIM works fine in other phones and network is in good strength in
other phones.
It
looks like something is triggering a bug in the software which crashes the
carrier software so it disappears from the settings menu. Hard resetting the
iPhone may fix the issue but will reoccur after sometime. When user visited
Apple Genuine bar, for some customer, unfortunately the Apple "Genius"
confirmed that there is a hardware problem.
How to
fix iPhone 6s no network issue:
Fix 1: Reinsert sim card with network toggle
-Turn
on Airplane mode.
-Removing
sim card.
-Force
shutdown (Press and hold the Home button. While holding the Home button, press
and hold the Sleep/Wake button.)
-Wait 2
minutes.
-Turn
on the phone.
-Turn
off Airplane mode.
-Insert
the sim card.
Fix 2: Use "Drop" method
This is a hardware solution for iPhone 6 no carrier service :

-shut down iphone.
-remove
sim card.
-place
phone in protective case.

on a sturdy hard table onto its backside from 12 inches high.

This is
clearly a design flaw with the IC Chip that connects the antenna/networking

I'm in the UK on Virgin Mobile and it turned out that I was not receiving many of my calls whilst located at home.
The Virgin operator had me do the following... Select another network (not Virgin - my phone was set to AUTO, so switched that off), then powered off, removed my SIM then power back on, switch network selection to auto then back off again to re-do the carriers available list and then final selected Virgin from the carrier listing.
She tested ringing my phone and hey presto the call came through.
Will have to see if this solution lasts, but the main reason for me posting this was because the operator also expected the carrier options to be under a separate 'Carrier' menu option and for me it isn't!
I hope this helps someone else out. :)
I followed your method Fix 1.
It works. It’s so good to have my network back.
Big Thank you.
