I got a evo 4g flash with boost mobile ..this morning i woke up and i was trying making a call..... my call doesn't go through, instead i get this message: "Your account could not be validated, please contact customer service"
but last night was working perfect
does anybody know how to fix this?
If your running a Sprint prl it will try to use whatever tower affiliated with Sprint rather native or roaming. That error is what you get when your connected to a roaming tower such as Verizon.

ok I have a couple of questions. I am currently running Cyanogenmod 6.1 which is the best rom lol...sorry had to say it. I know I can force roam to Verizon using the built in tool. My first question, why is it when i roam on Verizon I will only receive phone calls when I have data disabled??? data on Verizon is 1x which is used for voice/text. When i have the data option enabled....it puts the caller right to voicemail. Questions number 2.....Is there anyway to use a toggle to switch between EV-DO and 1X... thanks in advance.
i thought if you force roaming it roams off Alltel? my PRL is 60672

I believe you are correct....it will roam on either verizon or alltell, but if i have data roaming on i will not receive phone calls. I am trying to get 1X only on sprint. If i turn off the data connection it still shows it as connected to EVDO if I look under status and network or connection
I hear you gotta call boost but when I dial 611 from the flashed evo and i wait after the error 16 announcement it says to reach customer service please dial the phone number supplied by your service provider and the call hangs up by itself it never gets to a rep
can anyone help me fix this problem on the evo thanks..
Im having the same problem. I even put the phone to complete stock thinking the s=off was causing it. I think you need to have them change the MDI Number have not tryed.

You don't have to call boost directly using 611. Make a phone call & you'll hear the error 16 message. Don't hang up. Your call will be directed to a boost rep that will fix the issue while your on the phone. They'll then tell you to reboot your phone. Once you reboot your good.

I just fixed my error 16. You will need a another boost phone just to switch to for like 10min then i switched back to original . Goto boost.com and update handset.
Thanks

By doing that doesn't the e.s.n change?
Then changing the A.A.A Keys?
Only giving you 1x speeds instead of 3g?
Showing the 3g symbol but unauthenticated under 33284?

Interesting. Thanks for your response.
Does the status under authentication change to failed when not connected to 3g?
I notice when 33284 says Im connected to 3g the authentication says
65=65=65=65
or
100=100=100=100
But not Authenticated =1
Sometimes it does say unathenticated.
Speeds are still terrible.
I had an Error 16 before talk and text was working. My e.s.n is different now after the Error 16 fix.
For anyone having a similar problem my only advice is to restart from scratch. You shouldnt get an Error 16 at all, not all of the information was properly transferred.
did any body get the get speed fixed i
have the same problem can some help
me with this problem.
You may want to update your data profile under the settings menu. Its under system updates. I do mine periodically and have little to no issues.

You can get some junk boost mobile and activate it on your account wait for 20 minutes and activate your evo this will solve the issue

hey, my evo is rooted and am running sense 3.5. this is the new rom i got because i thought it might help the problem. however, it didnt work. i am trying to use 3g but a message saying error code 67 keeps popping up. how do i get my 3g to work? i thought i had to update my profile, bu the rom doesnt have that so i installed a new rom, which didnt make a difference. great rom thought!
also, i dont like sprints service, which i why i want to use verizons network. i can roam manually, but i want to make sure i am using verizon and not another carrier. how do i check which tower or carrier i am using.
You need a sense 1.0 rom or a stock rooted rom to update prl and profile, you have to change your prl manually to force vzw 3g use it too much and sprint WILL boot you if you force roam normally you will only get 1x on whoever has the stronger signal in your area could be vzw could be usacellular could be metropcs could be any of sprints subsidiaries like virgin or boost manually changing your prl to a vzw one will guarantee vzw coverage BUT use too much data and get the boot use too many voice minutes get the boot and while using vzw they will use your anytime minutes no free mobile to mobile or nights and weekends so be prepared
We are legion, for we are many
prl
so how can i change my prl so it only roams on verizon?
if it is always roaming on verizon, will there be an additional charge for the 1x signal i will be getting?
i dont use that much 3g nor do i talk a lot. however, i text a lot! will that affect any additional charges?
i want to use vzw without any additional charges or having to get into any problems with sprint nor verizon with our contract.
If you continue to roam on Verizon you will receive a letter from Sprint telling you you need to cancel your service.

Hi,
Even before the storm I am unable to roam. Sprint towers are up, but just barely. I had to retry a phone call 23 times to get it to go through. Same thing for texts. Verizon's network is doing quite well, but when I roam I get a notification that data has been disabled due to roaming, and when I make a call, I get an automated message from Verizon saying I have to provide a credit card to make the call. Texts won't send on Verizon either. Wtf.
All roaming settings are on, why can't I get ANY roaming!?
Thanks.

search this and/or other forums for Verizon PRL
I'm on 24006 with no difference.
And shouldn't genuine roaming work out of the box? At least for voice?
i posted this in another thread...im getting asked for a CC# by verizon(when roaming off the sprint network) as well...wth?
I'm using the same 00002 I used with my E4GT to force me on Verizon. No problems this far

So I flashed my SAMSUNG R740c using S735c (which is good on sprint, call/txt/data) system back up file and also modem.bin successfully.
But problem i am facing now is phone does not have signal on sprint prl , it does have signal on verizon prl and can even make calls and sms.
I tried to put it on roaming and yes i can make calls and sms using sprint prl, but roaming does not let me use data.
So i tried to use SAM R740c on sprint network with fully call/txt/data working.
If anyone can help me resolve this issue, i am willing to pay for solution.
Please kindly response to this matter and rewards will be your way.
Thank you.
