Spirint outage in Washington? (Renton/Stettle) - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Anyone here in the Wa state and having Connection issues? Was on a call when it dropped (which was odd first time it's happened) and getting a msg saying I'm roaming on data.

I'm up in Everett and my coverage is fine.

Roaming problems

Ever since I rooted and began flashing roms, I am no longer able to use roaming services. My phone connects to roaming networks just fine but when I try to place a call, I am greeted by an automated message by Verizon that says " we're sorry, we are currently unable to authenticate your phone" sms doesn't work while roaming as well as data services. Anyone else get this problem? Or is this something I take up with Sprint.

looks like your just roaming to me.
LOS is actually a circle with a slash through it. No signal bars, no 3g or 4g. Just a circle with a slash.
that's roaming...
Ghostbuster emblem is lost of signal.
Well i get the circle with the slash through it whenever i airplane mode and un airpalne mode while roaming
Only fix id to rebbot phone and this only happened after rooting

I've been getting random "roaming" even when I typically have full signal strength at home. Enabling 4g and then disabling it usually fixes it for me.
I thought this was LOS too, but it isn't. The symbol would have a slash on it if it were.
LOS
Furthermore, just the circle with a line isn't LOS, that comes up normally in some circumstances I think. It has to also not come back even when you go into a good service area no longer how long you wait until you reboot.
When are they sending an OTA to fix this?
Not LOS, try going in and out of airplane mode, can help get off roaming if you care. A little airplane widget becomes helpful if its repeated.

That can be considered LOS, but the more frustrating one is the one where the phone showes you have signal but texts fail, calls freeze the phone app, and internet doesn't work. Only way to fix is to reboot.

serious issue! data loss

first i got to send my apologies to kootz (sp?) because i thought it was only doing it on their rom when i just happened to be i was on their rom the couple times it has happened. i thought cm10 didnt do it because immediately i would flash that and data was back. it happened today while running cm10. suddenly i have no data connection i can talk and text but no data. even after reboot no data no i can connect to wifi. what i did this time was go to titanium back up i erased the data for "input devices 4.1.1 blh blah blah" and data kicked back on.......anyone else having this issue???? i don't know if it's doing it on the stock rom as i have not been on it for quite some time.......anyone else??
even when i toggle data off and on it still stays off but the phone acts like data is off only thing that can be done is talk and text.
You can actually confirm that you have mobile network connectivity period?
As in, you're sure you can talk?
When I lose data from LTE -> 4G/HSPA+ ... then I lose everything. It looks like I can call, I have full bars, albeit no logo, but I can't actually place a call. I get the 'Emergency Calls Only' message, OR 'No Network Found' depending on Rom.
Either way, no solution....yet.
Also, I'm on Bell Network, currently running Ariel 2.08 Stock. (ATT-based I believe).

I have the exact same issue with my Telus SGS3. Even when running on stock ICS, even before rooting, I had the issue as mentioned above. I sent it out for repairs under warranty and Samsung claimed it not to have any faults and they just reflashed and sent it back claiming it passed all tests. I asked Telus to send it back again because it came back with it stuck on the Samsung logo. There has to be a solution to this or Samsung should at least fix it.

Sprint wasn't any help with me. I was on the phone with them for over a week trouble-shooting with them. They ended up saying it was the Airave vendor's fault, not theirs. Also, the newer Airave 2.5 won't be any help according to them.
With me, it was both texting AND calling, even when I left home. The first problem I had was I couldn't send/receive any texts or receive incoming calls until I came back into my Airave area. I would get all of my texts and voicemails. The phone would work fine for about 10 minutes in my Airave coverage, then problems. That was with ZV8 and after about 2 weeks of having the phone.
I updated from ZV8 to ZV9 and for shi*s and grins, decided to turn my Airave back on, and everything worked fine again for about 2 weeks. Now I just have texting issues when inside Airave coverage. When I leave, it starts working again.
The funny thing is that I have an Airave at work with NONE of these problems, but Sprint won't send me a new one for my home for some reason, saying they are waiting for the vendor to fix the problem.
Not really happy with Sprint's Airave tech support.
Though YMMV.
I agree with you the support for a device that has there name on it sucks that's why I was trying to get help here before I call

Restricted data

Got a message on my phone earlier today saying "Restricted access changed. Data service blocked."
Have unlimited data plan, and no data limit set my phone, did some trouble shooting with T-Mobile, they're figuring a tower issue, but I've been all over a few cities now, and keeps doing it. They told me to set phone to GSM only (2G) and that works, but slow of course.
Tried setting the data limit to on and it's set at 100gb or some such thing I'll never reached and worked about hour before the message showed up again...
Any thoughts or ideas on how to get this working right? Because I really doubt it's a tower issue

Have access to a different phone? Try your sim in another phone,...or put someone elses sim in your phone to see if its the phone itself.
I don't since they changed the SIM card style from my last phones. Turns out tmobile sent out some texts to people last week saying that they were doing tower upgrades and to expect data issues. I never got that one and it seems like tech support clueless about too...surprise
