Nexus 4 goes to; Emergency Calls Only, why?

[anon(55900)]

Got a few months old Google Nexus 4 running latest JB, and has started to go to Emergency Calls Only, all by itself.

Any suggestions on what's going on?

My first thought is that you might have a bad sim card.

Have you attempted a hard reset, with the devices soft keys, yet?

I can get it out of Emerg. Calls Only, just by power off then turn on.

it's happened twice now on my wife's phone while she was at her work. I'm letting her that my N4 tomorrow to see if mine does the same thing.

that keeps coming up as the main cause on web searches.

Here's a link that would actually assist you performing the reset with the soft keys on your device. You would want to follow the second set of steps. - https://support.google.com/nexus/4/answer/2936226?hl=en
