"Try this: Make sure you are connected to wifi. Go to time and date settings. Turn 'Set time and date automatically' OFF then back ON. Then restart the phone by holding both the Sleep/Wake button and the home button at the same time.

This issue often happens when disconnecting the battery from the phone during a repair.

Hi Amy, your next option could be to try and restore your iPhone. This will completely erase everything on it so remember to back-up up your data before proceeding with the restore.

I took my iphone 5c to the genius bar today for the same issue. The tech dept. said it is a known issue with iphone 5s, and that there is currently no solution. If they are able to make a patch, it will be included in an upcoming IOS update, but no promises. The genius bar rep advised buying a new phone.
