Ever since I went from EH06 to EH17, I can only make calls, and send/receive texts when I am roaming. When I get into a sprint service zone, I lose my ability to text, and when I try to make calls, I get an automated message telling me that my authentication code can not be verified. I received the
same message when I checked the efs clear button on Odin a while back, but I fixed it by clicking th activate button on my phone when I had service. This time around whenever I flash any version of the EH17 build, I get this problem, and I don't get the popup telling me to reactivate like I did before when I fixed it. I've used Odin to flash back to EH06, but I still can only use my phone when I am roaming.
I'm back on EH17 rooted/deodexed hurricane rom.
Does anyone have any information as to how I can fix my phone?

Did you try updating Profile and then PRL?
Yes, but I still have the same problem
How about a Factory data reset?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Does Odin count as a factory reset? If so, I've done that too, and still can't make calls or text when I'm not roaming.

I guess it would if you tried it before restoring any data. Just Odin the EH17 in and then update Profile and PRL and then try it. Don't restore anything.
Alright, so I used odin to go back to EH17 again, and updated profile, and prl, but it still doesn't let me text or make calls.

And this only happens on the EH17 leak? You said you tried the EFS clear and it doesn't put you through the activation like on the other leaks. What if you called Sprint and they put you through reactivation?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
It started happening when I installed the EH17 leak, even if I flash to an older build like EC05, I still get the same problem, I might have to call to reactivate.
Thanks for all the help

Did this happen after you tried the EFS clear or was that an attempt to fix it? Best bet is to let them go through the reactivation. Let us know how it works out.
Sorry it took so long to reply, but using the EFS clear was only an attempt to get my phone reactivated, but that didn't work. I have a feeling I'll have the same results if I call Sprint to reactivate, so my next plan is to flash back to EC05 or anything before EH17, and clear EFS and see if that helps.
Did you try Odining in the EC05 modem?
Yes, I used odin to flash back to EC05, with the EC05, cleared my EFS, and still, on EC05, I am unable to text, or make calls. I thought it was EH17, but something must be wrong with my phone, so I don't have any idea as to what to do now.

Did it go through the hands free activation after the EFS clear? I would Odin to stock, if it still don't work call Sprint and have them reactivate the phone with you.
Yeah, it went through the hands free activation, but when I'd try to send a message or make a call, I get the same problem, and I live in a town where I'm always roaming, so I can't check if something works everyday, I have to wait until I go out of town.

Well I checked, and they matched. Could flashing EH17 cause this to happen, or did Sprint somehow shut off service on my phone?

It shouldn't. And if the activation went fine then you should have service. Flash to EC05 stock and call them.

i just updated my Pri. but i have yet to run into this and a may be doing a bit of driving soon should i be worried?
If it happens, just call Sprint from a landline, and they'll do some reconfiguring on their end, and have you do a factory data wipe. Just make sure to back everything up first!
I just updated mine last night and now im unable to data or voice roam on the cm6 forced roam setting. I think I'm going to revert back to the old one as soon as I have time to figure out how to do it.

Yes, just call Sprint (both of you). Tell them that your PRI just upgraded from 1.34 to 1.40, and now whenever you roam, your data doesn't go through, and when you make calls, you just get a message from Verizon saying they can't authorize your phone. The guy didn't ask me anything else.
Settings/system updates/profile update, then a reboot fixed it for me.
Thanks, I'll flash back to fresh and try that.
Edit: I also called sprint and it fixed my issue. I had to setup google voice as my voicemail again though.
So after I called sprint I can go on internet while roaming but I can't make or receive phone calls. I updated profiles and that didn't do anything. I will try and give sprint a call again
*UPDATE* I called Sprint again and they fixed the issue for me

Your post was a little hard to follow. You have used the one-click odin to go back to a stock rooted rom and are still having problems, is that correct?
Try this
##72786# then enter your MSL code then click okay to reset data. This will only reset and re-provision/activate your phone to Sprint. This will create a new profile on Sprints network and will give you any new network settings that may have changed in your area
1. Download "Terminal Emulator" from the app market.2. Open Terminal Emulator.3. type in getprop ril.MSL (make sure the .MSL is capitalized)4. Press enter and poof, you have your MSL code.
Helps to not use swype .....while doing this as Swype will capitalize the i in ril

So basically... Last week i was running ICS FD05 for a few days and then upgrade fresh install to FD10 ICS... Monday this week I missed a phone call around 5AM for my work.. didn't think about it much...
but yesterday I was having issues with getting text and sending them... with double sending and just not sending at all.. so I figured maybe its the new leak that messed up so I went back to stock rooted EL29 with one click (done it before several times) but went I went back it seemed that I cant make phone calls to my Voicemail or anyone else for that matter unless I was roaming...
I have tried flashing back to an ICS build and that hasn't helped... also I reinstalled a 60686 prl from a post in development (thought that my prl was corrupt) and also did a factory reset with my MSL number like Epix4g told me to do.
and No never used google voice at all.. was thinking about it after this fiasco... but staying away till i get a better picture of whats going on

FYI, I can relate with you. For the last several weeks I can't recieve phone calls or voicemails. The problem has been intermittent. Calls drop straight to voicemail and I'll get the visual voicemail notification hours later.
I can't blame this one on ICS, I've been using GB roms and it's happened on several (worth a try). But I swear it started happening after I thought I'd give Gvoice a try. Getting rid of it is a different conversation. I've been back and forth with Sprint a few times too. Just got off of the phone a few minutes ago because it happened again today.
Keep me apprised too.
I don't have any problem with gv but I don't inter grate it with sprint I just use the voice mail part ....when u first install just click skip and then go from there .... I hated it making u hit 1 to answer and the look of the text part ....it is OK for just voicemail though to me

Update to my problem
So if anyone cares I still don't have a native signal from sprint in my house.. they say that are still working on it and cant find the problem... so sprint tech support sent me an Airave ... hooked it up today... I get full bars now and pretty clear signal (just don't stand in front of it) and best of all no fee and no monthly charges unless you have an issue with credit then they charge you 5 bucks a month
the only things that suck with this is that when you make or get a call it has 3 beeps (letting you know that you are on the Airave signal)
also if you are roaming you get the same 3 beeps but you have a triangle above your signal bars
but non the less no more dropped calls from my house and has built in GPS
So if you have a weak signal or or none at all this might be right up your ally.
It seems that you get your signal from your high speed internet so make sure you have that before getting an Airave... thanks for all your help!

Hi Lisa. Like Peanut said, please provide us with additional info.
As for my personal problem with this, I had this problem for weeks running 2 different Gingerbread roms. Calls just would go straight to voicemail, everything else worked fine (texting, outgoing calls). I ended up calling Sprint and having them walk me through a full re-provisioning of the phone with ##72786# and also ##501435# to fully resolve my issue.
I won't post the rest of the details on how to do it because you need additional information to accomplish this and it's just easier to have Sprint walk you through all the steps.

Yes, the settings will follow you through different ROMs. It probably would be best to be on GB when you do it. I don't know how it will affect AOKP. You will need your MSL and MSID if you try to do it yourself. That's why I suggested just calling Sprint, letting them know your problem (and just let them know someone suggested those 2 steps, you never know the level of expertise you get on the other end). It's just easier that way. Like I said, I didn't want to post the complete steps in case I missed something necessary and it caused you other problems.

Sure thing. Call Sprint tech support and tell them you're reprovisioning your phone and need the MSID phone number.
From Dialpad ##501435#
Select 'Edit'
Select 'Touch Here'
Enter YOUR cell phone number on the virtual kepad that comes up and press the return key on the bottom right of the virtual keypad.
MSID
0000000000
Will be displayed on screen.
Once again select 'Touch Here'
Enter your MSID on the virtual keypad that comes up (it looks like a cell phone number, for example mine is 7272780149 for my phone. That's not my phone # btw )
Press the return key on the bottom right of the virtual keypad.
Select 'Done' and the phone will reboot.
Edit: Update your PRL & Profile once this has between completed and manually reboot your phone.

Might not be your modem, you could just be in a bad service area. Call sprint to tell them and see if they can give you an airave. Works wonders at home. Some people said they try to charge for it but they sent me one with no charges.

This started a while ago. Even using Handcent I can receive MMS but not send it out. It says that they have been sent but they never get received on the other end. It worked perfectly until I flashed to FC24, and I just installed CM9 thinking it would help but it didn't.
It's a SPH-D710 on Sprint network
I already tried deleting the telephony.db file clearing data/cache and rebooting. That didn't help. I found a BoostMobileMMSFix.zip but I'm assuming that won't work for me, even though they were describing the same problem. So I'm a at a loss. Any help would be awesome. I saw references to a ##DATA# method for this problem but couldn't actually find out how to implement it.
Thanks a lot
I can't imagine that I am the only person out there on the Sprint network that this has happened to. Hopefully someone will be able to shed some on the situation soon.
Question---- if I updated with the BoostMobileMMSFix.zip... would it do something horrible to my phone? Or would it simply not work? Is it worth trying?

Hi, a similar thing happened to me recently on my phone and it turned out that because it is a work phone they changed the settings for my phone to block outgoing mms. Is your phone a work phone? Have you tried restoring your nandroid backup (I assume you have one) of your original ROM and checking to see if it works on that? If it doesn't then its something on the carrier side of things :/
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
Well I don't think it's something on the carrier side of things, because it started happening IMMEDIATELY after I flashed out of my stock ROM. Unfortunately, I don't have a nandroid backup because when I started this endeavor I was such a NOOOB and I did it hastily.
Could this be an NVRAM issue? Would it be worth resetting that? If so, can you tell me how please?

So I just went all the way back to EK02 and still could not send MMS. After a few Sprint auto-updates I'm in ICS again with FH13. Still no MMS. I tried to update the APN settings (while I was still in CM9 before I flashed to EK02), but I don't think I did it right. I updated the settings to what I found here (http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-sup...86-fixed-sprint-mms-problem-apn-settings.html) but that did not help. Every time I saved it I went from having Sprint listed in the APN settings to having nothing. In other words, it disappeared. Currently thinking I will just stay here till I figure it out. Maybe call my carrier (which is actually CREDO, but it's on the Sprint network)... could be something on their end, right?

Good call on that one. I assumed since they're on the same network they'd use the same settings. They don't. But I still have a problem. I am on CM9, so I can't use a third party app to restore APNs.
I found CREDO's settings here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1824916
However, the list of parameters in the xml there does not match the settings I can modify in the APNs manually in CM9 (accessing it through Voice Dial). Is there another way to restore APNs in CM9? Or can I some how flash backward to Gingerbread, restore, and then flash back without changing the APNs?
Please help, I feel like I'm getting so close to figuring this out!
EDIT: brooksyx -- your link goes to the same post on a different site. i didn't see that before i found the one here. Thanks for searching for me!
no luck yet?

This started a while ago. Even using Handcent I can receive MMS but not send it out. It says that they have been sent but they never get received on the other end. It worked perfectly until I flashed to FC24, and I just installed CM9 thinking it would help but it didn't.
It's a SPH-D710 on Sprint network
I already tried deleting the telephony.db file clearing data/cache and rebooting. That didn't help. I found a BoostMobileMMSFix.zip but I'm assuming that won't work for me, even though they were describing the same problem. So I'm a at a loss. Any help would be awesome. I saw references to a ##DATA# method for this problem but couldn't actually find out how to implement it.
Thanks a lot

Sorry if I missed you saying you tried this already. I had this issue a while back, the fix for me was to update the prl and profile via the system update settings.

thankss Bannjio for your reply. are u on boost mobile too? also are you using stock ICS FH13? cuz ill be honest i never tryed updating the profile or PRL to see if it fixed the problem. and now since i couldnt send MMS iam running the older gingerbread EL29 where my MMS works fine.. but if i can find a Fix for MMS to go back to FH13 ill be happy.cuz i do remember doing something like what you just told me but on my old EPc 4G . now since this a second generation of the Epic Touch i dont know if it is he same story. i just dont want to redo my phone again toFH13 and update the PRL or profile and endup with the same thing about no MMS again.. thanks
No problem, I can see not wanting to reflash only to have it not work. I am on sprint not boost mobile, and on a custom rom not stock fh13. However, the problem arose for me when I switched from an ics rom back to a gb rom. Mms didn't work on the gb rom until after I ran prl and profile update.
If you end up giving that a shot, be sure to let us know how it goes. Sorry I can't be of more direct help.

I also. Have been having the same problem but i flashed Mijjz blend fi25 rom n it worked but i noticed that it took awhile for the pictures to get thru.. Keep in mind that i was in a horrible 3g area n i didn't have acces to a wifi connection.. If any tries it n it works or not please post... Ill be trying it again in a better 3g area
So, last night, my phone stopped sending text messages. Out of NOWHERE this problem popped up. Tried rebooting a few times, still no messages could be sent (At the time, was using Sniper's PACman 19.3.0 ROM). This morning, I flashed the stock multiboot image, updated my profile, updated my PRL, and tried to send a message. Again, it was a no-go. So, I opened up my recovery (was an EL25 recovery, I believe), wiped data, cache, etc., then I went and flashed the 21.0.0 PACman ROM, flashed gapps, and flashed an FI25 modem. Booted up the phone, tried to send a message, still a nope. Tried to call someone, also a nope, as it just sits at "Dialling...".
I'm not sure what's going on, does anyone else have any ideas? :S
EDIT: Going to try to ODIN to a rooted EL29 and see if I can get results that way.
EDIT 2: Flashing to rooted EL29 did not help.
EDIT 3: I fixed my problem. I used ODIN to flash an EL29 kernel and recovery, as well as wipe my EFS at the same time. After that, I used a one-click to flash to EL29 rooted stock, updated profile, updated PRL, and everything was working! I went ahead and reflashed to PACman 21.0.0 and I can still call and send texts.
Not trying to be a smartass, but are you up to date on your mobile phone bill?
I have to agree... Did you pay your bill?

Even if it was a billing issue the call would still connect, just not to the party you want to reach.

My phone bill isn't due for four days, but we are up to date on the payments.

What I'm really thinking about is why it all of a sudden stopped working correctly...it worked fine ALL day, and I made absolutely no changes to the ROM or anything, but calls and text just stopped working out of nowhere. At least I know how to fix it in the future, if it happens again.
So it appears I'm not out of the woods yet. Same problem has reappeared. Can't send texts, can't make or receive calls. Any ideas?

I've had this happen when a tower near my house was flaking. I thought it was my phone... It was a problem with the tower. Any other *sprint* phones in the household? Have you tried in a different area?

Two other Sprint phones in the house. If there were problems, my mom would be the first to complain about it. I just went ahead and wiped the EFS on my phone, updated profile and stuff, and I'm going to give it another shot. If this is in fact a tower problem, how can I get Sprint to take the hint that they need to get this **** fixed fast? >_>
EDIT: Well, I'm guessing it's a tower thing. After wiping everything, still no messages can be sent or anything.
I had the same thing happen to me in the Pittsburgh area a few weeks ago. Call tech support and they will start a ticket and get it resolved. They even credited me a weeks service for the inconvenience.

How did you wipe EFS? I thought it had to be included in the tar package?

Used the "Phone EFS Clear" check box in Odin when I flashed an old EL29 recovery.
Hmm.. Never seen that option. What version of odin?

if you call sprint they'll fill a trouble ticket. they did for me but its not likely if other sprint phones look ok. did you look at the other 2 phones while yours was having a problem?
also stay on a stock one click for a few days and see if it works. maybe something odd with pacman (which I'm running fine btw).

I asked my mom to try and send a text and try to call. Text failed, and the call took a good amount of time to connect. And it appears my dad is having problems as well.
