You haven’t clarified, do you actually have signal on the phone?
It’s likely the signal is weak or blocked by the building construction, if you have no signal you won’t receive calls/texts.
The signal meter on phones means little.
It only reports the signal.
The signal to noise ratio is what is important for doing anything.
You can have no bars and be fine or full bars and not be able to do anything. Such is the poor basis of the information presented. However doing anything usefull would sap energy so they don't.0 -

I asked if they had signal, so I have no idea why you felt the need quote my question to waffle on about bars on the phone. With NO SIGNAL he will not make or receive calls.====0 -

On a small mobile phone screen I tend not to have the left hand side in view so don't see location.0
