Correction: There is a 'airplane mode, with the L3. But you do not find it in the quick pull-down mode menu dragged from the top of the phone where you find torch. You have to go to settings and go from there.

I had a problem with sim card recognition a few years on with the M2. Unreliable in that regarding requiring many restarts. The problem may not be common though; may have just been unlucky with a Monday morning one if you get my drift. Good all round...
