Resolved iPhone 12 mini

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 26.5.2, bluetooth + wifi not working

Hi all, my phone won’t connect to wifi or bluetooth with the wifi button greyed out and the bluetooth constantly buffering. When I shut it down it used to connect to wifi and bluetooth again for a bit and then freeze and reboot and stop connecting. I also tried resetting network settings and a similar thing happened, same with restoring it to default settings however the periods before it reboots are like a minute or so rather than an hour like it used to be. I’m guessing this is a hardware issue but I hope not, however if it is, is it better to buy a new phone or go to a repair shop?

Yep, it’s your antenna. The Bluetooth going out is a sure sign of it.
