[Q] Error Code 67 - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
My phone recently lost 3G and data with the error code 67. Registration Failure. Your PCS Vision username and/or password maybe incorrect. Please try againg.
I got this message a while ago when I tried a tweak that "improved my cellphone internet speed" by changing the PRL. But insted gave me this error and the loss of 3G and data. I fixed it by manually changing the PRL trough recovery (updating prl dint work because i had no data). All was good, and once againg without doing anything this error comes up and I dont have 3G or data, I only recive calls but cant make em, i get redirected into sprint payment or something wich i dont owe anything. I notice my PRI (Not PRL) version was 1.7 or something i changed it to 1.90 but nothing. Oh and before this happened I noticed that Car Panel aplication was turning on by it self.
Android Version: 2.2
ROM: Koni's ELITE Series III
Recovery: Clockwork Mod v2.6.0.1
Any help would be great.

Any help will be greatly appreciated since I use this phone for my work XD, Thanks.

Are you sure sprint didn't put a lock on you acct

I'm sure my account is a family one, and if they did all my family's phone would be locked.

I guess im going to have to do a hard reset.

Don't know how it could've happened by accident but I had the same thing when my MSID and MDN were wrong. Try this:
##{yourMSL}#, edit, enter the correct MDN and MSID, commit modifications. Then update profile.
If still nothing then try:
##3282#, edit, enter MSL, data settings, menu, restore. The phone will reboot into "hands free activation" and you could let it run.
How this helps

BTW if that doesn't work don't do a hard reset while rooted. Unroot and go back to stock first. You will have to redo your MSID and MDN after a hard reset as well

Well I just unrooted and went back to stock (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780141) but in hboot i still have s-off.
Ok, I dont know whats MDN and MSID and lesss I know what are the correct ones for me, sorry Im a noob to this stuff.
Oh and im still getting the error after unroot/stock.
And I tried already the restore but it get stucks at "hands free activation" for ever with the error code 67 poping all the time.
I guess de MDN is my phone number cus thats what it was writen, but the MSID was a different number i changed it to mine but it dint do anything I guess il change it back to the number it was.

ok so mdn is mobile directory number or your cell phone number. msid is your connection to sprint. you need to call into to sprint and tell them that you got that error code. they will then have you go through the manual programming that was stated before. when doing this write down your msid and you lock code or msl.

You said your on a family plan... if you have another phone that was activated at the same time for the same area it will have the same MSID. You might find it on the other phone under menu, settings, about. Or, of its an HTC phone you can ##3282#, view, and see the MSID there.

I'm probably just making this complicated. Probably faster just to call Sprint

I have read like 20 forums and still nothing, my phone currently is unrooted and on stock rom... Still getting the same error

what method did you use to root? if you used unrevoked then you have to flash the unrevoked S-On tool then RUU back to stock...but if you have already ran the RUU then it doesnt really matter

if you have insurance, my suggestion would be to just have sprint replace the phone

Don't take in your phone with s-off!!!
If it still says s-off then you're still rooted and they may tell you you're SOL.
After I had my evo flashed to a different carrier then flashed it back to Sprint my Evo misbehaved the same as you're describing. Basically what I did was completely wipe and reset the phone back to stock the way it was at the Sprint store before I bought it. Then manually programmed the MSID and MDN and let it go through hands-free activation just like they did when I bought it. That's basically what I described doing. Don't waste $50 on insurance.
Redo the instructions from the same guide you referenced making sure you did it as described using the Unrevoked S-On Tool and
PC36IMG. If you used another method to root I got nothing. You'll have to google.
Now that you're back to stock go ahead and do a hard reset. I had first tried the hard reset while rooted and it retained many settings. Get it s-on first THEN do your hard reset. This will clear ALL the settings including your MDN and MSID which you can program in and follow with ##3282... like I described before. Your phone will contact the network and update all the correct settings when it goes into "hands free activation", update profile, check for prl and firmware updates all on its own. Just let it do it's thing.
Post back on where you're at.

Well idk what i used was so long ago, unrevoked is fairly new i think so its not the one i used. Going to try what Untrue told me. will post back
First try, trying to get into recovery threw me a droid picture with red exclamation...
Will keep trying...

VU2.39 Lost Radio...Out of Service????

Beautifully working VU2.39. Then decided to add new lock ring. Totally messed up phone.
Restored with ROM Manager to prior situation, but have totally lost phone radio (and therefore phone, 3g etc.) Have tried restoring many times, tried airplane mode, wiped cache...all with no solution.
Shows no service, no CDMA or other option exists in settings, phone info shows:
Signal Strength =0
Mobile Network Type unknown
Service state= out of service
What did I do here??? How to fix???
Have now done factory reset and called Verizon. They tried to change manual codes but to no avail. Seems my radio got fried by applying the Captain America launch ring. Is this possible that that was the cause. Worked perfectly before I patched this today.
Help! I don't want a new phone as it will come with 2.3.4 not rootable.

2.3.4 is definitely rootable. And I don't think a ring would change that much. Have you tried flashing a New radio?
Sent from my Incredible 2 HD using XDA App
I tried flashing new radio. No difference.
I just can't believe that the sense link patch would have actually physically damaged the radio and killed the system, but I cannot get anything to "activate" the radio. In manual program mode ##778, the display settings say "radio version 1.09.01.0622", so the software should be there. But it cannot find the hardware.
I have matched my NAM settings and Home SID to the same as my wife (her phone is fine).

Try flashing this Radio. It's the last one on the list.
No difference whatsoever! So what do you think has happened and how and why? How could flashing the Captain America htc unlock ring have caused such destruction?
Any how could it fry or totally immobilize the radio? I really do not want to replace the phone, but am giving up hope for a solution. It's got to be either something very simple, or the radio did get fried.
And I still don't see where I can unlock and root 2.3.4 on this forum or at the Revolutionary site.

Well...... Was the lockring made for your specific ROM and phone? If not, that may be why.
Have you tried any other ROMs to make sure it's not just something interfering in the ROM itself?
To root 2.3.4, you have to downgrade the hboot v.98 to v.97 following these steps found here.
Link came from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1135020.html
SHould this have bricked the radio??
Can you resend root 2.3.4 link, as the one above goes back to the radio instructions.
Many thanks.

Post edited so the link for 2.3.4 root should work. But, yeah, that's for Thunderbolt, not the DINC2. Try flashing another ROM or full wipe/reflash of VU 2.39. Don't apply any mods until you find out if it works, and see if someone can port the lockring to the DINC2.
Wiped twice regular and dalvik, installed the clean ROM for phone I had saved. DEAD Radio. Bummer, but thanks for you help.

What about the .722 radio?? Earlier you said you had the .622 radio which is an older one. If that doesn't work, boot into hboot and factory reset (I think this works). Then you'll probably have to re-root. Otherwise, you can get a new phone, and root via the downgrade.
Absolutely no solutions anywhere. Tried everything twice! New phone on the way. Very frustrating situation.

I need SERIOUS help...

I am having some serious issues getting the Internet and MMS working on a Flashed EVO 4G. It is flashed to MetroPCS.
I have 2 Evos. One of them (mine) has Internet and MMS working great as per tutorial. The only thing I noticed was that when I got my Evo, the 1x sign would show, but the internet would not work.. After following JD's tutorial, everything works great.
On the other Evo (my girlfriend's) there is no 1x or any type of symbol. No internet whatsoever. I have followed every guide on here and it still does not work. I have followed the provisioning guide, and all other guides with no success. No matter what I do, or what I change, still no internet.
While following tutorials, I ran into these issues:
When I go to whiterabbit.org, and I enter the MEID, I get an MSL Code... but if I enter the 8 digit ESN shown in the top of the QPST window by MEID, I get a DIFFERENT MSL CODE? Is this normal?
Also, after clicking WRITE TO PHONE in QPST, I get an error that says NV Item Read Only...
I have also tried ##sctrn# and reset the data, and then redid the provisioning, but NOTHING.
When I go to settings, the mobile data box is checked, but then if I uncheck and recheck it, it will get stuck at "enabling"
So you can see from my above stated issues, that I really need help... Please help me out someone...
Sounds like the device is not provisioned correctly. I would recommended doing a ##scrtn and retriggering the provisioning.
As for espt I suggest a sense 1.0 rom
Flashing radios will not break the flash only flashing a different hboot would.

That is because ##scrtn is not editable.. Hit reset then enter your msl. After your phone reboots call the activation number (usually *228, yours may vary) or update profile under about phone.

I've done that. My issue is that when I "provision" as per guide or as you said, it changes the settings but still the internet does not engage... no 1x or anything.
Just because I've had a stubborn phone or two in my day. Try flashing hBoot twice. Back to back. Also try new copies of your files. And verify checksums if possible too. Sounds like you may have a slight corruption or a mis-written byte somewhere. Just my two cents.

[Q]How to get MSL back to original

So I flashed the file in the phone section of ODIN and now my phone will not activate... The MSL number is 000000 and i got it back to where i could use it but had no data but I was hoping a fresh flash would help get that but im stuck again with no service Although I can still get 4G. Ive been dealing with this for 4 days now and hoping someone has been able to get this straightened out...
Ive used QPST but not sure what i should do..
My RTN says
Mobile Number: 000-000-7183
MSID: 000-000-7183
Gingerbread EL29
Baseband EL29

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26131653&postcount=4244
You will need to call sprint for your MSID if you don't already know it so you can program it in.
Ive got it activated and i figured out what was the problem.. i didnt have the correct MSID number.. i was one number off and somehow after many many many attempts to activate and spending an hour on the phone trying to get the msid number which they didnt give me due to my msl being incorrect it finally activated through the hands free about 2 hours after i posted... and my msl is still 0000000... should that be a problem?
I want to flash back to ICS but Im kinda scared to now... lol.. i guess as long as ive got the correct msid number i shouldnt have a problem activating..
I will never again try to flash my phone while intoxicated. LOL
I thought it was bricked..

[Q] Last Ditch Effort - Verizon Galaxy Nexus - No Radio-CDMA - Baseband Unknown

I've spent nearly two weeks trying to figure out what happened to my phone and how to restore it. After OTA 4.1.1 (I forced this clearing gsf), in a weak coverage area toggled airplane mode. It wouldn't come back out.
Fastboot flash, CWM, TWRP, dd command, Odin, re-partitioning, nand erase all - any attempt to flash radio-cdma.img hangs or fails.
I can confirm that many of the dire warnings about hard-bricking your device... Well, let's just say that with everything that I've tried, even the bolder attempts in the end, did not brick my device. Odin would always get me back.
Baseband Unknown
IMEI Unknown
My Phone Number Unknown
Everything!!! UNKNOWN
I found some threads on here mentioning CDMA tools and I've downloaded and attempted a couple, it seems that my pc has to have all the supporting programs to make a connection to my phone. The problem is these posts are not specific to my device but the S3 and it seems like a whole lot of trouble when there isn't a 'known' path and specific files for my VZW GNX.
I have also ran emmc check several times and memory checks out good. Sim card has also been replaced.
So I sit here today with 4.1.1 installed (less the radio-cdma.img). I can Odin the older stock images found here on XDA by deleting the radio-cdma.img within. Then use fastboot to flash the 4.1.1 images individually to have a Wi-Fi only device.
I'm willing to try anything. Any takers?
Your meid is smoked. You will need to completely reprogram phone. A restore won't do it Cuz its the serial of the device from factory. You can't fix unless you have msl
*Shaolin Shadowboxing*
Thank you for the reply!
Could you point me in the right direction? Is this done using CDMA tools? I've seen places that mention it can be done via the handset dialpad (other devices). I've found threads that give suggestions on how to contact your carrier to get them to give you the msl... and I've also seen posts that state that Verizon's MSL is almost always 000000. My brain is turning to mush! :cyclops:
Thanks again

Verizon msl is usually 000000 you will need either the box device came in or the numbers under battery. The sticky part us going to be the MSID number you'll have to put in. If you have the ORIGINAL nandroid you made immediately after you unlocked bootloader, that one might work but no guarantees. The dialer code is *#*#msl#*#* with msl being the 000000. I believe that's it...could be *#*#spc#*#* with spc being spc and then have to enter msl. The MSID is mobile subsidy identification. Sometimes its NAM. Your MIN would be your phone number..mobile identification number.
If you get into the MEID it will have a couple numbers to enter. The numbers you will need will be your ESN hex and dec. I have all the dialer codes and can pm you a link if you like. Once you finish with the MEID repair that's where the NAM MIN thing will be needed. Unfortunately, the NAM/MSID isn't the same as your number and won't accept all 0's but once the meid is back you might be able to restore but am not positive on that. Can call Verizon and have them refresh phone I believe once meid is restored.
*Step Away From The Toolkit And NoROM Gets Hurt*
I tried the dialer code *#*#000000#*#*
The phone did nothing although as soon as I completed it went the field cleared. I'm on my own. Verizon told me a week ago they were sending me a refurb. Called yesterday and there was no record of another phone being sent out. Rep told me my Sim card was not activated in their system and a ticket was opened to have it unlocked on their network. It should be fixed on their end today. However, I still think I'm going to have to get radio-cdma flashed on my phone. Using getprop (from app market) it appears at some point I may have flashed GSM radios. I say this because there are GSM listings from the getprop output.
Any suggestions?

I'd probably return everything to stock first. ##XXXXXXX# and *#*#XXXXXX#*#* codes depend a device's factory ROM.
I'm not convinced it's your MEID though. That alone wouldn't stick your phone without signal and you'd still be able to flash a radio. I'd also be careful not to mess with IMEIs or MEIDs unless you're absolutely certain that's the problem. If you're hell bent on it or you're doing it for fun, not caring of you wreck it, look up MEID repair and read up before messing around.
It wouldn't hurt to try and install a new radio via CDMAWS or a similar program. Just don't change anything you're not familiar with. You can really screw things up with programs like that if you mess around.

MEID definitely smoked. *#06# yields nothing. I have tried flashing back to stock IMM76K but cannot get past radio-cdma flash... it hangs. If I remove the radio-cdma image it stock flashes no problem... but I still don't have MEID when doing that. I believe I flashed GSM ROM or radios at some point. I say this because when in terminal emulator and type getprop, the output has several gsm entries. Verizon is sending me another SIM card. But before I put it in I believe I need to have the GSM stuff off the phone. I'm not quite sure how to do that.
My screen is cracked, Verizon and Samsung can do nothing for me. I'm on my own on this. I have two rumor touch (sprint) that work fine. I also have HTC EVO 4g (Sprint)... been looking at activating on Verizon, but have had no luck getting CDMA tools to recognize phones... even after wiping drivers and re-installing multiple times.
I'm stuck using a very basic Samsung Knack flip at the moment... Sucks big time. Cash is short so I'm trying to make do with what I have.
Still needing help guys and gals!
And thank you all so much for your ideas and suggestions! I have learned a lot!

Do you have the box that came with device so can reapply meid? You'll need your msl in order to edit. If have a backup of original stock after you unlocked bootloader..that one might reapply your info. Otherwise you need that mls

Hi, Guys!
I have the same problem On Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE GT-i9305 - by mistake flashed with ODIN "phone " section ( that means I flashed RADIO ) - as a result No IMEI, NO RADIO-GSM, BASEBAND unknown...(((
Somebody found solution?
Thanks in advance!
My brother is having the same problem with his Galaxy Nexus. Anybody found a fix for this problem?
I just started having this issue the other day as well (baseband/IMEI, etc all unknown). Phone was just sitting on my desk when I noticed it didn't have service. After being unable to flash the cdma radio, I am trying to get the phone back to stock. However, I am unable to flash the stock image because there is a version check for the cdma radio. Is there a way to flash the stock image without the cdma radio check?

Any luck with yours. I just started having the same problem. My phone freezes and I have no service. I am trying to return to stock using this GUIDE but my phone freezes whenever I try to Flash the CDMA Radio. If I skip that step it doesn't install the stock version and I'm stuck in Paranoid 3.2 and unable to return to the store in the current condition due to warranty issues. If I can make it stock I will go get a new one.

Just wanted to let others know that I was on a JRO03O rom, decided to return to stock 4.1.1 and must have screwed up something because after getting back up and running I had the same issues as OP. No baseband, IMEI, *#06# was blank, etc. I was about to embark down the path JediNinjafication linked to, but it looked extremely intimidating. Jaymazz's link to Vabeachfc3s reset tool worked like a champ, put me back at at 4.0.4 and all the radio stuff started working right away! Phone updated itself to 4.1.1 shortly thereafter, and it's still going strong.

[Q] LG-LS970 possible to unlock yet or prepaid atleast?

Is it possible to unlock the LG-LS970 without tearing the phone apart and soldering a sim card in it? Or atleast get a prepaid plan with it? It use to be a sprint contract phone.

You can flash the phone to change the nv settings and allow use of it on a prepaid network such as Cricket or Metro PCS There are other networks as well such as Ting (I think you don't even need to flash to use Ting) https://ting.com/byod
I was wanting it on StraightTalk. I've seen people have this done while searching but I cannot find out how to do it. I'd like to do this without having to sodder anything.

Go here http://www.straighttalk.com/wps/portal/home/h/byop/registration
You can proceed with registering your CDMA phone to Straight Talk. I tried with mine (Lg Optimus G) and it went through but I didn't want to go very far because I do not want to actually register my phone to ST.
I have just purchased an LG OG that seems to have been flashed to Page Plus Wireless while the seller said it was ready for sprint activation, any idea on what I need to do to revert back to sprint?

Might need to be flashed back depending on how the NV items are held. I flashed an HTC evo once to cricket and when I did a hard reset the flash went away. You can try a factory reset through recovery.
But first I would check the esn to see if it will even be accepted on sprint. A lot of times phones get flashed because they have a bad esn with sprint..
check it here.

Thanks for the reply. I purchased the phone via swappa and it passes their ESN checks, I also called Sprint customer service and they also verified that the ESN is clean. However the chat representative claimed that it must still be active on some other carrier.
I have also used kitty wireless's meid check and it comes back as active_with_ppc and has what i assume is the old owners phone number. Any ideas? Is it as simple as flashing the correct stock rom/radio/prl and then going through the Sprint activation process?

Glad the ESN is good for you.
I think the issue you might have is that it is still active with another carrier. You can try to run through the process of flashing it using qpst. I think the settings for the other carrier are still there.
First try to flash the radio and prl and add it to your Sprint account. But like I mentioned, Sprint doesn't like when the phone is still active on any network, you may have to contact the buyer to remove the phone from their account.
Is the phone rooted? What ROM is on it? What does it list for Radio and PRL now?

Phone is rooted, and came with stocktimus. The seller also left several other roms and backups, as well as pageplus prls on the device's storage . The current prl is 44018, although the network is listed as Chameleon in the settings.
Baseband: M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0 1690
Kernal:3.4.0
Buildnumber:Stocktimus_0_v1
Software:LS970ZVC
If there is other info that might help please let me know. Im new to LG devices and the last device I have modified was a moto atrix.

Try to flash the ZVC radio and do a reset on the phone. Looks like you might need to flash some files using QPST. Also since you are on a stockish rom try to update the PRL within system updates. It might pick up the current Sprint PRL of 25019, that should help with activation. I don't know if it will pick it up since you are not on Sprint at the moment but it's worth a shot.
If that doesn't work, find a way to flash a newer Sprint PRL with QPST (I don't think you'll find 25019 on the net yet) then try to update it on the phone.
You might try some of these codes too to see if you can do some NV changes, seems like the one for network reset or clear OTA provision might do the trick, I stongly suggest you make a full backup including an EFS backup first before doing anything.

Here is the thread to create an EFS backup, do not use the zero EFS. The Optimus_G_Create_Flashable_EFSv4 zip will create a flashable recovery of your EFS (the EFS holds you ESN and other good stuff to make the phone work)

Looks like the phone is still registered on Page Plus, I had KittyWireless run an ESN check and the MEID came back registered to another number and the status is ACTIVE_ON_PPC. Looks like I'm going to have to return it unless I can get the original owner to cancel their Page Plus account.
Flashed the ZVC.bin, phone rebooted and after conneting the USB it rebooted again to a black screen. Hard brick I am unable to boot into fastboot or download mode. Any fix besides JTAG?
Could anybody who has flashed their ls-970 to Cricket take a second out and tell me how they activated it on Cricket? I see services online that will flash my phone to Cricket for $10, but Cricket staff said there is no way to activate a phone without a sim card. So how did any of you sign up to Cricket with your flashed phone without a sim card if Cricket says it can not be done?
