I apologize in advance if this is a thread somewhere I couldn't find it.
I was recently using CM9 alpha3 on my E4GT, and last night suddenly I wasn't able to make calls. It says "we're sorry but we can't complete your call right now" or it just instantly hangs up. I thought it may have been an issue with the rom or modem, so I went back to Calkulin's GB EL29 ROM. Same issue, even after resetting PRL and profile multiple times with phone restarts. I can send and receive texts, and I can receive calls, but I can't make calls. Another thing to note is I use an Airrave in this house, I tried resetting that as well, and dialing *99 which is supposed to also refresh or reset it. None of these tactics have worked and I was wondering what else I could try. Thanks again in advance!

Maybe you might be hotlined from Sprint. Sounds silly but is you bill paid?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
possibly Blacklisted
expanding on the previous post..
Did you get the phone direct from SPRINT. or via ebay or at a pub?
Bills paid?
are you the only registered owner of the handset?
people will sell you a phone, then after a little bit of time passes. they register the phone as LOST/STOLEN/DAMAGED the network Blacklists it and provides the fraudster with a shiny new handset.
you end up out of pocket without a working phone.
its an increasingly popular fraud technique I'm afraid.
Silly question but it needs to be asked, are you sure it wasn't something with the number you were calling? Did you try calling several number?
Airrave services are having issues. Power it off for a day.

The bill is current, I have called multiple numbers, both on the sprint network and others neither has worked. I have other family members in the household on the same plan using the airrave and they are able to make calls. I bought the phone directly from sprint brand new from the store with my 2 year contract.
Why don't you use sfhub's one-click EL29, get yourself back to simple stock rooted and see if it clears up the issue. It's always my fall back whenever something goes awry.

I did actually use that right before I flashed Calk's E4GT rom and I had no luck with it either Probably should've mentioned that.

Don't reflash Calkulin's ROM until you've been able to recover your voice calling services. Both CM9 and Calkulin's ROM are custom, so maybe that's where the problem is coming from. You need to get back as close to stock as possible then see if the problem persists.
Go back to EL29 (plain stock or stock-rooted), see if everything is working then you'll know if maybe it's something in the flashing process that is knocking out the voice calling.
I'm also having the exact same issue with my airave. If I unplug it I'm able to make calls without a problem. So as someone else posted I believe the airaves are having issues today. But I am on the stock FD26 ICS if anyone else is having the problem and thinks it has anything to do with the leak.

Yeah I unplugged the airave and I walked far outside to get a bar and was able to make a call. Didn't think it was the culprit because other family members can make calls with it, they have different phones though.
Thanks for the help guys
Having the same issue as well today. Tried powering down, chatted w sprint, still having issues. Don't think it has to do with build or rom as I have been on just about everything since I had mine.

Exact same issue here too. Started yesterday morning. Have not had a chance to test it out today. Sister's iPhone works fine with the airave. Seems only my phone is affected for some reason. Spirit said they would get back to me in 72 hours. Hope the issue is resolved soon. Using Grooveip to make calls in the meantime.

Four people in the house on my plan and no-one has mentioned any issues with the airave other than the spamming txt issue sometimes.
Update: mine just started working again. Last night I reset the box by pressing the reset button for 15 seconds, still having issues after it reset through this morning. Sometime in the last hour it has become fully functional again. Weird.

I did a search and didn't find anything similar to my issue. I'm running EVO Classic ROM and have had no issues with texts until today. My texts just aren't coming through, and when I make a phone call I get a flood of texts. I've restarted my phone already.
Any ideas?

common things that could mess with txt msgs are airave, setting radio to cdma only and sprint towers acting goofy.
try checking ##3282# and see what evdo is set at. should be auto.
The same exact thing happened to me too! I thought i was the only one but guess not. I searched for answers here on line to figure out what the problem was and i never fixed it. I ended up having to unroot and take my phone into sprint and i got a refurbished Evo 4g for free.

Nothing has changed on my phone, i'm getting 4 bars right now. This is very frustrating.
I completely understand. I went through the exact same thing for over a month. Is there anything in particular you did to your phone right before it happened? Just wanting to see if we can try and figure out whats causing it

When I had the problem i chanhed roms like 7or 8 times and it kept happening on all of them, it wasn't an application causing it either because right when my phone booted up after flashing a rom, a would do a test call or text and my phone wouldn't ring. As soon as i placed my first call i would recieve the missed message.

It's usually because there's a problem in the area or the prl.

I had called Sprint several times and had them do everything on their end to fix it. They updated prl, profile, (ive also done this myself several times as well), they refreshed the signal on their end, they did about everything they could and i did everything i could do but nothing fuxed it. You can use Ghostly Sms from the market to catch the some of the missed messages, it didnt catch them all for me and it wont help withissing calls. Sprint also said it gad nothing to do with the area or towers and also my fiances phone is working just fine anyways.

Today the issue seems to have gone away, i'm receiving texts just fine now.
It's normally temporarily (24 hours-1 week) unless it's your prl. But like you said, just randomly went back to normal. Happened to me a few times on cm7.

Hey Everyone! So I'm having this problem where my phone will NOT ring or show that someone is even calling. The only way I found out that someone called me is when they text me asking why I didn't answer them. Well, my simple answer (that people are starting to not believe) is that my phone didn't even show that someone was calling... This wasn't so much an issue before because they could always text me if they needed to get a hold of me. But now after to applying to many places for a job, I kinda need it to ring. I also have another issue and that is that texts will not receive either. The only way I can get them is through Google Voice. This wasn't such a big deal to me but I would like to know if that can be fixed too. I have never had this issue until after I tried CM9. Since then I have tried many other ROMs to see if i still had this issue. I did.
The other ROMs I tried are:
MIUI v4
AOKP
Clean GB
Marcusant v3
MIUI Gingerbread
CM7
Legendary
What my current setup is:
ROM: AOKP
Android version: 4.0.3
Baseband Version: S700.0.5S.EI22
Kernel Version: [email protected] #6
Build Number: IML74K
Mod Version: aokp_epicmtd_build-28
Theme: NONE
PLEASE!!! ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED!

I did this and (sorry for taking so long to get back to you but i wanted to make sure that it was happening often and not just once in a while) it worked for the phone ringing but the messaging, although im receiving them, they come late. sometimes VERY late like a whole day later. This is not cool and would really like to find a solution because i dont want to have to be stuck on stock :'( Oh yeah btw the ROM i flashed this time was AOKP. Thank you for the help!!
I believe late texts are a symptom of carrier network issues. It should clear up when the maintenance is finished.
Sent from my PantechP4100 using xda premium
I am having the same issue with the phone calls either coming in late or not at all. I test this by calling my number from a land line. It takes 4 - 5 rings before the phone will start ringing, if it rings at all. Most of the time, Google Voice answers for voicemail.
I remember back in the days when I had my Windows phone, there was something that we could do to have the phone poll the towers more often to make the phone ring faster. I know that this faster response to phone calls came at the expense of more battery usage. I wonder if some of the battery saving tweaks done by the ROM developers has had a negative effect on the phone calls coming in.
I have tried updating my PRL and whatever through EL30, then reflashing with out restoring any data. Still having the issue.
Thanks.
this same thing is happening to me and everyone else in my neighborhood that has sprint. Its one specific tower that's causing the issues. I know this because once I connect to a different tower the issue goes away. I contacted sprint about it and they said they would fix it when they do the network vision upgrades, which could be a ways away.

I kinda thought it was a problem with the network and so i called them and last time they sent me a airave and it didnt solve the problem. I still think its a problem with sprint overall and am planning on calling them.
I have the same exact problem. I have even had the phone replaced and it still does it. I only know when it happens because google voice logs the missed call. I have had it happen with a completely stock phone as well as rooted.
It is very frustrating because like you said, people don't believe you when you say that your phone did not ring.
They are actually going to switch my phone again. I know this is not going to fix the problem, but I will play the game!
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.

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?

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.

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).

Anyways, can any one help me. I updated to jelly bean OTA, and since then my LGOG does not like to send text messages out. My phone will not send messages shorter than 10-20 characters. Im in the CHICAGO area. No problem receiving them, just more often then not i get a failed sent. I have tried resetting the phone hard/soft. I took my phone into sprint and they said I need a new phone. Wtf! Anyone have this issue, or have any ideas to resolve this?
Im pretty disapointed right now, the phone was flawless before the update! Never had a single problem before. Thanks in advance.
UPDATE.. In conclusion,if anyone is interested, I believe the new jellybean update just doesn't play well with my towers in my area of Chicago. With the jelly bean update my voice signal was excellent, but the data signal was degraded. I always noticed, with ics while 4glte was connected, the voice signal was less. With jelly bean it seemed to be just the opposite at all times, great voice so so data connection. Only if i could have both and jellybean wtf?? Maybe someone could help me on here and explain a radio/jelly combo i would have best of both worlds.
Seems to be a Chicago issue.
**Either way I aquired LGNPST and original TOT file and reflashed the phone with original software and have not accepted the jellybean update for now.**
If you would like me to host the files needed PM me, I'll send you links.
I suposed I could have tried to reflash ZV9/ICS or ZV9 radios, but I bricked the phone before trying that.
I must have got the best phone out there. I've never had a problem with any software version we've had.

I have not tried the ## but ill give it a shot. Sprint may have done that.
More on this issue, it seems just not to send short messages. Like lol, no, yes anything shorter than a sentence. I have noticed tht long texts send fine, and picture text seem lightning fast. Whch is great, but cant respond to someone with a simple yes or no. Wtf
I have also noticed a bigger delay between automatic switching between 3g and 4g. Before the update the switching was seamless.
I have also rooted and reflased the ota, same issue. I did not flash the radios seperate tho.
The ## did not fix my text issue. Sprint store did do this as well.
Still have this same issue anyone figure anything out? Anyone have anymore suggestions i can try? Sprint does something on their end, and restore the phone with ## and it works for an hour, then back to the same issue.
Peteyo, are you in Chicago? Maybe it's it's a network issue. I'm having the same problem and so is my buddy. I can't believe more people aren't coming forward with this if it's a national thing.
But let me know if you find a fix, and I'll do the same. And you're right, it only happens on short messages!
Im in Chicago and having the same issues, even with other messenger apps that use stock mms, I also use whats app and have no issues. They seem to be random some send and some don't. If there is a fix please post it is a pain .

***If you have this issue please call sprint, so they are aware of issue****
I have chalked it up to LG sucking! or I supose it could be sprint. The JB update they pushed changes the way the phone communicates with the towers. I grabbed bits and pieces from other threads with data problems and came to that conclusion. It doesn't appear to make issues with everyone, or have the same problems.
What i did, and what maybe the easiest is to reflash the phone back to its original form out of the box. Also im not accepting the ZVB/jelly bean update that messed up our phones. To return to original state, u must aquire LGSNPT, and Sprint`s original tot file. You can find these two in the developer sections. Its really easy and painless and get you right back where u need to be. The toughest part is putting your phone into download mode. vol+ vol- and power buttons.
Make sure u back up your pictures/things you may want to keep.
Option 2 you can **** around and try to find an ICS file, root your phone, and flash it back to ics. Or better yet root and flash ZV9 radios.
However im not sure if these will work. I have not been able to find ZV9 radios.
Option 3 if you have insurance get a new reman phone, or if no insurance pay sprint 50bucks for a reman phone. But you will still have the same issue if you update to ZVB/jellybean.
I wish I new more about this stuff and make a custom radio that has the voice improvements from ZVB/Jellybean, and the data from ICS/ZV9. Probably not even possible.

Don't you feel a greater level of sophistication when you have to type an entire sentence?
I'm sure it's Sprint trying to cut down on their SMS costs, but I'm not a conspiracy theorist.
Funny! I guess I should have just added a bunch of quick messages that are complete sentences for a yes or no answers. And the lesser 4g reception does slow down my midget porn downloading. Maybe it really is a win win...

It all started last night, my phone no longer connects to the Sprint network. When I try to make calls I get this error "The number or code you entered is incorrect" when someone calls me they get the same error. I have flashed a stock image through odin and its back on ICS but I get a SIM card error and the phone refuses to connect to Data. I am at a loss on what could have caused this but my phone is useless at this time and I am pretty pissed. My phone worked great no problem until I attempted to use Google Voice and that is when I lost Data and Voice function. I have removed my phone number from google, disabled GV and even changed my phone number but the problem still exists. If someone could shed some light on my problem I would greatly appreciate it!
PS: Sprint claims its a tower issue but my other devices work just fine.
Try ##72786# in the dialer. It'll force the phone to reactive everything

How is being rooted going to fix this?
I have gone 100% stock all the way to ICS. I then rooted, updated to MD4 including the radios and firmware. I have data now but still no calls or texting. I have edited the MDN and forced reactivation. They guy last night said it was a tower issue but I'm now 35 miles away and I highly doubt the same problem exists here. My girlfriends phone works no problems at all. It has to be an account issue but no one at Sprint cares to help...

Update prl And profile. Or try changing your network to cdma only reboot then switch to cdma / lte.

I don't see the prl/profile update fixing it as the dialer trick shouldve covered that. The other suggestion above might help tho. I'm also thinking maybe dialing *720 and *730 to make sure gv is all the way diabled.
Just get this when I make calls... "The number or code you dialed is incorrect, message 7 switch 180."

Edit: Same error...

Have you ever changed your number on sprint b4? Maybe it's a glitch on their end due to the number change just not settling in yet
I did about 2 years ago... all I can do is wait til they ooen and give them a call. I had to bring my girlfriends phone to work with me so I can check in with the office. Guess ill give them a ring in a few. Its just odd that data works without an issue. ..

If your data is working fine then I have to call it their issue for sure. Which would make sense as data could be working based off of account info rather than your number. Where as if you make a call your actual # comes into play. Could be wrong here just a theory. But best of luck I'll post if I think of something else but I bet u this fixes itself
Ill keep ya posted, thanks for your help.

Well I just got an automatic profike update and now it works... Only issue now is I get the profile update popup every 5-10min.

Glad it's working and for future reference I found this looking on sprints site.
"Looking at the tower nearest you it appears to be performing properly When a tower goes down you will not hear any error message.* The message* is a function of the switch where the wireless system connects to the wire system.** Do you get the message with every number you call or just some numbers?* Can you call (888)-546-0314* That is a sprint test number."
