[Q] *2 causes com.android.phone to force close?

Anyone else having this issue?
I'm on Snacks 1.25. I've tried 20+ other numbers (including other * numbers). They all seem to work. I've cleared the data for 'Dialer' in applications.
Are you running a custom rom? its missing the sprint promotion apk

I had the exact same problem today on baked snack 1.2.5 when I realized I wanted to update my pri but needed the msl from sprint lol.
I took this from a stock 2.2 rom: http://www.multiupload.com/8GZNYS0H8K

Hey Jerry, I'm having this problem as well....I keep getting the force close message for "com.android.phone" and I managed to get my phone into airplane mode thinking that would solve it while I tried reinstalling TelephonyProvider.apk and the other app you had there and I can't get them to upload on Package Installer. Do I need to get my phone to reconnect with the internet and take it out of airpplane mode somehow?? I keep getting that message and I can't hardly do anything with my Evo right now and the phone dialing functions and MMS aren't working
Super frustrated.
Hello, i am a completel noob to this whole rooting thing. i followed a step by step guide and had a buddy help me root my Evo. i believe we used revolution or unrevoked maybe? after everything was rooted and the phone is working fine. sends texts, internet connect and everything. i cannot make a call to save my life. i open up the dial pad. type in a phone number. hit call and then bam. com.phone.android force closes... i enjoy having the rooted phone its much faster and the battery control is great but this isn't worth it. any suggestions. remember i'm pretty new to all this.
*EDIT
heres what i can tell you
Android version:2.3.3
HTC sense version:3.0
software number: kinged-shooter_RLS_2.3
PRI:2.15_003
PRL version:60681
i have tried wiping the dalvik cache doesn't work.

Synergy Rls1 MMS not working

Has anyone else had an issue with this. I have tried for 3 days to fix it. Please help!

Please post what steps you have taken to fix your issue. It will help others troubleshoot. First thing I recommend is opening mms in Titanium Backup and wiping the data, then reboot and test. If you would be more descriptive with your questions you have a better chance of getting help.
Here is a nice video.

No, please post it but ONLY if you have it on hand easily. We can search for it. That thread is so popular its long and hard to follow unless you can dedicate some time to it every day.
Thanks for the heads up on it.
Update: Found it - this may help

Handcent won't work unless the stock messenger app does so lets just deal with stock for now. Like I said earlier, try uninstalling it then reinstalling it.
Switch R/W to R/O, try moving Mms.apk from /system/app to your SD card with Root Explorer. Back out of the Root Explorer and Hot Restart your phone. When your phone boots up the messenger app will be gone.
Move the Mms.apk from your SD card back to /system/app, switch R/W to R/O to first. Long press on the Mms.apk check off all of the permissions but leave "Special Permission" alone. Switch R/O to R/W and back out of the app and Hot restart your phone. The stock messenger app will be back. Try sending or receiving an mms.

I wus having dat problem.. all u have to do is go to settings. System updates .. update profile and dat should fix ur mms
Sorry I haven't had much time. Been wrkin like crazy. I haven't had a chance to try to fix it. I deleted handcent and that stopped the duplicate txt problem as it was a glitch in the app that has yet to be fixed. My txt and mms only come through when I pwr cycle my phone. This is what's annoying. Will try to solve the issue in the AM. Thanks for all input...

Had to do this for Kingdom 7/23 but it seems there is an apn issue. Download apn backup/restore from market and use the fix from here.

I am having the same issue. I haven't been able to resolve at this time. I tried wiping data, then removing the app with Titanium. I then reflashed the synergy rom and still no luck. I looked at connection under messaging and all fields were blank so I tried manually putting in the info. User= Production, mms protocol =WAP 2.0 and mmsc= htttp://mms.sprintpcs.com. I have went to system and updated my profile. I backed up apn, checked for errors and then restored. At this point I'm stuck. I am going to try another of the methods below. Will keep watching this thread and post if something works.
So I rolled back to rooted stock and tested mms. Works fine. extracted mms from root and saved to sd/ rebooted to saved synergy back up. mms gone again. wiped data/uninstalled mms. installed extracted from stock mms. still no go! Next step wipe phone/reflash synergy/I cannot remember if mms was working with synergy at first or not. Used titanium to restore data and that may be where issue occured. If anyone has success, please post
I'm in the same boat, ladies and gents. APN settings are correct, done the Profile update, reinstalled the ROM numerous times. Stock Rooted ROM relays MMS fine, boot into recovery, wipe Davlik Cache, install Synergy, update Radios, reboot into ROM, and all is well BUT the MMS. Profile update, no luck, APN backup / restore, no luck. Cleared cache and Data from Messages app. Running out of ideas here, and I don't want to revert to my old nandroid of the rooted stock ROM.
Welcome to my world. Got a friend at work who just installed synergy God-mode the other day and his mms is working fine. checked his settings and the only difference I could find was in settings:connection- the name said Sprint instead of Production. Changed mine to that and still a no go. My sister was trying to send me a picture of the oceanfront in Florida and ended up having to email it to me. I love this rom, but this could be a deal breaker. Moved all backups to pc and am about to flash a "virgin" (as apposed to resoring the backup) synergy to my phone and test mms before restoring any data with Titanic. If it works I will only restore totally 'unrelated' apps one at a time and not all system data. Here we go again. Will post results.
Here's the latest....wiped data, wiped cache, wiped Devlik..reinstalled entirely new copy of synergy rom and mms working! Sent pix to husbands phone..he got it..sent another back to me... I got it. No extra apps installed or restored just yet. Very carefully restoring apps but no system data. Will post if still working.
Broke down, reloaded the ROM after doing a factory reset and cache wipe, restored a handful of Apps, and it works. Ti Backup, thanks for the help!
And more Thanks due to Sherry.

[q] htc desire 816 (vm) mms....

Hey, I have a HTC Desire 816 (US) for Virgin Mobile. I like the Google Messenger and Hangouts app however I can't seem to send or receive MMS for either app. The stock Messages app works just fine. I've done some research and it appears I need to look into my APN settings. However, I have no idea how to get to those on the phone. The directions that are given lead to know where. Can anybody tell me how to fix this. Thank you.
You probably need to download an app from the play store, I think the one I used for CyanogenMod was called Change APN. Just opens the APN menu for you. Also, the one site I found with Virgin Mobile US APN details had it wrong. But if you're on CM 12, their pre-set APN for VM is correct, you just need to select it in the menu. For the Sense-based ROMs, they don't seem to have it by default.

Thanks for trying to help. I am currently on stock rom and it appears that Virgin Mobile has the APN on lock down. I have not found a way changing it and getting it to work. Everytime I try to add a new apn with CHANGE APN app it says saved but doesn't add it. The one that's in there has a locked symbol on it. It could be because I am on stock rom. However I am rooted and S-Off, I still can't change it. I haven't tried CyanogenMod because I want a fully functional phone. Anybody else have any ideas. All I want to do is use hangout or google messenger with MMS and it work. I think it stupid that its included on the phone and it's not even fully functional. I can get chompsms to work but it has it's own apn settings.

That's interesting cause I personally use hangouts and am also on stock and rooted with s off and it works fine for me. What kind of error is it giving you? Is it immediately failing or failing after trying to send for awhile?

Sprint APN Issues, could anyone please help?

Phone worked flawlessly until I rooted & installed TWRP last week, I keep getting an error about my APN every so often and I can't access alot of websites and my text messaging fails. The phone worked fine for the first couple days after rooting though. The only thing I can do to temporarily fix it is a reboot. I tried some Google found settings to manually update it inside Textra (no option to update it on the phone, there's no APN settings under "carrier" menu in setup. It works a little better, but I still constantly get the error and have issues. Also it never allows me to update PRL or profile now too.
Any suggestions on what the deal is? Will have to give up root and reinstall the stock image from Google? I appreciate any help!
I tried to delete my post... this is the best i can do.. no delete button
