Noticed this last night, havent been able to send an MMS since about 9pm lastnight. Local issue?
Still having the issue, is there some data I can clear or something to reset?
Custom rom?

Nope, bone stock. Running ZVB.
This has happened to me before with this phone and Sprint. First question: are you using the Stock Messaging app? If so, try rebooting the device. I've noticed when I was on ZV9 or ZV8 (can't remember which one) when I would drive through an area with no signal, the radio just refuses to pick data back up. Turning Airplane Mode on and off or a reboot usually fixes the issue. If you're not using the stock messaging app, you might have to wait for an update to that app.
Sorry, that's really all I got.
Airplane mode on/off, reboot, nothing is working.
Settings are correct

Not sure if your having the same exact issue i am. But i can't send test messages shorter than 4 words or so. This has happened to me since i got the jelly bean update. I have reset the phone, check the settings like u, root and reinstall jb, done ## something##, brought my phone to sprint...... Ihave not found the answer yet either. Its really annoying when i want to reply something short and to the point. My text messages are littered with fails. If you figure something out please let me know. And to top it off sprint says i need to spend 50 bucks on a referbished phone, to fix my issue.Wtf
I was able to send a text of more than 4 words, seems to be MMS outgoing only. I received a pic earlier this week.
I meant I can not send outgoing messages shorter than 4 words or so.

Have you tried calling Sprint to see if there's an outage in your area?
I doubt its a 2wk outage. Also, my fiancee's GS3 can send pictures no problem. I can also send pictures via GOSMS, but that is just a crutch and I shouldnt have to do that.

Well you can still try calling. And see if there's something they can do on their end. I had a similar problem like this before and they said there was like a data blockage to my phone or some bs. And they pretty much had to reactivate my phone.

Has anyone had a problem with incoming calls not coming through? It doesn't happen all the time - just intermittently. I'll get a "missed call" in Google Voice but my phone doesn't ring.

I'm on FreeGS3 v1.0.0 with baseband L710VPBLJ7.
quick google search came back with some people complaing that's it's sprint issue while updating towers. new to sprint in chicago where lte is being rolled out, so that can be it.
My wife is having the same issue w/ not receiving calls and sms messages but I am not.
We live in Southeast Texas so I doubt network expansion in Chicago would have any direct affect down here.
I'm in Los Angeles.
I've had that issue in VA.

HAD? did the problem go away? or did you do something?
I reliably get calls but not texts. I am in North Texas(Dallas).
So you guys don't think it's a problem with the Google Voice/Sprint integration?
Same issue (no calls in). Seattle wa.
The only time i have issues with Google voice is when i have a spotty internet connection but i am sure you guys would have realized that by now. The only issue i ever have is in messaging it queues the message instead of sending but again i attribute that to data connection

I think it's fixed. I don't talk on the phone much anyways. I called Sprint multiple times. They said one tower among the like 5 in my area was down for maintenance and that most towers were over loaded in my area. (I live right next to a major state college). This happened right after hurricane Sandy came through which didn't do any major damage here.
After the Sprint tech confirmed I wasn't receiving calls she noted it in my account and offered to credit my account if I keep track of how many days it wouldn't work.
I'll test when my wife gets home from work in a hour.

This is definitely a problem with sprint/google voice and it doesn't matter what phone you have. I had this issue when they first started the Sprint/GV integration and after browing the official sprint forums I found that it was the problem. Once I removed the GV integration all the issues went away. Another reason I removed it was because I would be on the phone and would get disconnected after 30 minutes exactly every time. I was using a Evo shift then, and then moved to the Motorola Photon and it happened on both of them.

i had this happen today in Oak Park, IL. first i noticed it though.
I don't have the SIII, but I will add to the list of missing calls as well (GSII). Only weird thing is...I never got the notification like you guys did. I would use my wife's phone to the call and it would never ring on my end. But when I uninstalled the app, it worked fine.
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using xda app-developers app
The best advice for anyone using the Sprint/GV integration is to just drop it because it's just gonna be more of a problem than it's worth. Most of the time you won't even know you missed a call or text until someone tells you.

Mine does that too, not just my phone but my Wireless hotspot too, (a AT&T Unite) I can keep the connection up by doing a "ping www.google.com -t" in the command line.
Yes, this will kill your battery, consider using bluetooth or USB tether.
Furthermore AT&Ts DNS servers suck use these
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Just put them in to your DNS settings in Windows.
This isn't an issue with your devices, its a AT&T issue from the looks of it. (I called AT&T and they tell me that the local tower is having issues so unless I continuously ping google I can't tether or use my hotspot for more than 20 minutes without getting DNS errors, Does it with any ROM I try, even my PlayStation Vita does it)
Sorry but my note 2 is bell variant and i'm on bell network in Canada. The only reason I'm using this forum is because AT&T has the same model unlike the other verizon and such.
So any other idea???
i also tried to set the hotspot auto turn off to always on and it seems to help a little. however every now and then i still get disconnection.

Did anything change when you continuously pinged Google?
I keep refreshing the page, enter new common websites such as MSN or yahoo and they all show nothing except DNS failed look up. I changed the bell apn to some tether apn bell offered but that didn't work. So now I reset the apn to have it look up the settings itself. Still having the issue..
I never had this issue until recengly like last two weeks. Iunno what could be the Cuz and I can't figure out is it my phone, rom, or laptop...
I seriously will pay someone if they can't help me fix this!
Thanks in advance to this wonderful community.

Disable your app and use ES File Explorer to hotspot. This can help to see if it is wifi app specific issue, or a common (phone setting, DNS...) problem.

When I am home, I am always on wifi connection. Never really get disconnected. Today I was looking over my bill and noticed that alot of times, I have like 10mb or 12mbs used, while I am still connected. Most of the time happens in the middle of the night when sleeping, but also sometimes during the evening when home.
Is this normal?
At first I thought I might be losing connection to wifi sometimes, but even if that happened, 10mbs? When sleeping? I doubt I am losing connection though
I hardly have any apps..
Any idea

Look at your data usage chart in the system settings on the phone. It will tell you what has been using lots of data.
Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.

That just means you are not connected to wifi calling. Pretty sure it will still say 4G even when on wifi and dont have wifi calling enabled. Could be completely wrong though.

It is just the icon I have enabled-it shows "4g" when connected to WiFi as opposed to just showing bars.

You cannot do this type of reset on a Sprint phone flashed (cloned) to Boost as it will reset some important info that requires the phone to be reprogrammed manually. (I had to completely reflash mine, it was easier that way.)
This is because it is a Sprint phone and not a Boost phone. Boost has their own version of the E4GT. Technically, they think I also have an Incognito phone so I can't call for help if something goes wrong. Did you get everything working?
Yes I got it wasn't easy though

I used to have this issue on my old phone when using Juice Defender. The app used to disconnect data when connected to wifi, but MMS uses data whether connected to Wifi or not. I'm not saying that you're using Juice Defender though, but my point is that you should check that your data is enabled through settings when connected to Wifi and trying to send MMS.
Let me know if you don't know how to wnable/disable data. If you're using a battery saver app, make sure that it isn't toggling data too.

Nothing should off your data then, but it's always possible that it could've turned off somehow, so just double check using my screenshots.

If data is on, then try turning Airplane Mode on then off. Then try rebooting if you haven't already (many people rarely reboot their phones nowaday. Not really a need to anymore).
If those don't work, then I'm at a loss. Sorry.
