Phone is stuck on 1x service

I've been stuck on 1x and no svc bars all day, and on and off yesterday. Keep getting the data roaming message.
Called sprint and they ran me through a bunch of trouble shooting, as usual, but could not resolve it. She said that my internet wasn't updating or something. Opened a service ticket and told me to take it in to the store so they can check the device.
Anyone have this problem before, and how did you fix it?
I'm currently running srf 1.2, genocide 2.0, honycomb fusion explosion theme, ec05 modem, and I have an airrave.
My wife's epic is also stuck on 1x, and the blackberry on our extra line also says 1x with 1-3 bars.

My issue isn't that similar, but recently was the first time I've even seen "1x" on my phone. I literally have never seen my phone on 1x before, in fact, I thought it wasn't even possible on Sprint (Like, I didn't know it had the same name).
If all your phones are stuck on 1x, then it is most likely something with the service. You already did everything I could think of, so I'd just take it to Sprint again and tell them that it's been happening for a while and you've already been to a store, but it's becoming a real issue and you shouldn't have to be charged for a service that does not provide what they have offered, or something threatening like that.
Hope you can fix the issue soon,
Acer

I feel better knowing someone else also is experiencing this. Since like Thursday I haven't had a reliable 3g connection whatsoever I keep getting the "1x" icon also.

Same...wonder if it's something up with Sprint.
I literally haven't seen that phone have the 1x icon in the 13 months I've had it.

I've had trouble, but with updating my PRL and Profile. Once I read this, I've kinda conviced myself that somethings up on Sprints end, and not ours. Could this be part of Sprints Network Vision in action?

It could be the airrave. I had trouble getting a 3g connection the first time we set ours up.
________________________________
Roll Tide Roll!

Same here with 3 epics for 2 days, called Sprint and had them push a refresh on all 3, then I updated prl and profile on all 3, been working for about 10 hours now on all 3.

Wow! I knew I would get some response to this, but not that everyone is having the same problem...lol! Well, that sucks. I wondered about the airrave, but I mentioned a few times to the phone rep that I had one, and she never said anything about it. She did say they were no problemswith the service in my area. I'll have to see what happens when I leave for work tomorrow. Does make me wonder if sprint has something brewing that is messing up everyone's service.

I'm going to give this a try, its really annoying because the one bar I now get(id get usually 4-6 bars like a month ago) puts me somewhere around 50kbps...

Reset the Airave and your router and modem. They screw up the Airaves all the time. Airave techs direct line is 866-556-7310.

Update= 3g still working on all 3.

Oh and I have no airave.

Back on 3g today. Not sure what the problem was this weekend. I had no data when I got up, but rebooted the phone and so far so good. Full bars again, at home. I did switch roms last night. Installed miui with the data fix just to see if it made a difference. Didn't make a difference last night, but its working fine so far today.
Going to reset the airrave after work anyway, just in case. Are you guys back to normal today as well?

Delayed messaging with Sprint-rant

I am beyond annoyed with Sprint as of late. For a few weeks now I have had my messages delayed or not sent. Then all of a sudden, the following day I get a bunch of old texts. People think my phone is possessed. I've had to use Google Voice to check if my messages are being sent. There are numerous complaints about this across Sprint Community and across platforms, so it's not isolated to one particular phone. Sprint is pretending like this isn't an issue. Here is just an example
http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/381442
I don't know what can be done about this. I've already complained and reported it, but they claim it's not a widespread problem. Thoughts/comments are appreciated.

Same thing. Happened with og evo, evo 3d, and epic touch.

I wonder if it is related to location. I haven't had that issue at all (EVO 4G, EVO 3D, E4GT.) I would be ticked too if it was happening to me.

I don't know that it's just location specific. It seems to be happening across the board according to other complaints on Sprint Community

I know using Google voice has been known to cause this problem on every carrier. Don't know if that is the source of your problem though.

No issues here, not using GV.

Its just a problem with the sprint/gv integration. I've been using the gv app with no problems.

NYC has been experiencing issues, it's being worked on.
Outside of that, update your data profile any time you think you're having texting issues. That will solve the problem about 75% of the time.

Unfortunately wiping profile and PRL only works sometimes. I tried with and without Google Voice. It still happens. I end up checking if my messages are sent via Google Vice which uses wifi as opposed to data with Sprint, so messages are more likely to go through with GV.

Any body else getting the message not sent error a lot

I dont know what's up... I have full bars are the time and regularly get 20mb download speeds. But for some reason I keep getting the message not sent error and I have to press the " ! " button 1 maybe 2 times quite a few times every day. Anybody have a fix or know why it does this? Thanks a lot guys

I had this problem on my vibrant SO MUCH (like maybe 15 texts per day did this). Then I had it on my Galaxy S 4G (less but still alot). Now I rarely have it on my Galaxy S 2. No idea what could cause this issue but it seems to be getting better down the generations lol

I've had only about.......5 since I got my phone.

Yes, lately I've been getting alot. Mostly while im on my wifi calling is on.

on my galaxy S 2, it might happened maybe 3-4 times since the 3 months I've had the phone

Yup.
Happens to me on a frequent basis. I have a launch release GS2 and it seems to happen to me on a frequent basis. I'm not sure what it is but it also happens a lot when it's converted to mms. I hope this gets fixed with ICS.

I had this happen to me a couple weeks ago. I called t-mo and told the rep what was going on. He told me to reset my phone and he did something on his end. After that I haven't had a problem since.

Call your carrier, have them reset your line, describe them the situation and tell them you need everything reset on their end.

I have already done that and they said they don't see anything wrong on their end and gave me a ticket number so that they can try and resolve the problem

I have started seeing the same thing on my phone. I haven't had time to dig into it but I just flashed FreeGS3 last night and it started today. When I was full stock/rooted I never noticed a problem. It doesn't happen every time either. Are you on a custom rom? May not have anything to do with it, just a starting point for me.

Yes I am on a stock rom I haven't changed anything besides rooting the phone. My problem just started yesterday and hoping it get resolves really soon.

Has it been happening with every text you send, or is it kinda random? Mine seems to be random so far. Hopefully its a network issue on TMobiles side.
In case you don't know, in Messaging apps settings you can set it to request a delivery report for SMS and/or MMS. That way you can at least be sure if/when your texts go through. It will notify you when it is delivered.

I don't think its a problem with the rom. I had just flashed it so wasn't sure at the time but I haven't had any issues with it today. Must have been on network side I guess.

Duplicate Texts or Getting Them Late?

I don't know if this is a sprint network problem or what but ever since the newest PRL update in my area I am getting doubles and triples of texts from my contacts and sometimes not getting them at all until maybe 2 hours later which is very inconvenient I must say. Anyone else experiencing this or have any suggestions? I've called sprint about it but all they say is they will refresh my signal which doesn't help...

I was getting them too, I think Sprint is having issues with sms
