Verizon G4 on Straight talk - No sync - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How's it going guys? I have had this problem since day 1 of being on Straight Talk. Email never syncs, nor do any of my other apps if I don't place a call. When placing a call and chatting for a minute, upon ending the call my phone syncs up and everything pops up all at once, but that is just a one time thing, I have to place a call again for it to sync once more. I thought waiting for Marshmallow would fix it, but it has not. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I would love the fix! Thank you

Someone out there must have the fix. Maybe I should just root this thing and try another rom.

New text messages lost on reset

My phone froze with the notification for 2 new text messages staring me in the face. It didn't respond to the power button, so i popped the battery and restarted. On restart - no 2 new text messages were found! I know the answer is probably 'no way,' but is any recovery of these messages possible?
Oh, PS - i'm on T-Mobile running the new HTC 1.33 rom.
Nope. I had this issue, 2 messages sitting at the HTC Home screen. I had to take out the battery too, SMS's were gone and I was racking my face for about 3 days finding out who sent them. If there's one thing that tickles me, it's that.
Sorry I know of no way of getting to them, check all your folders and perhaps there is a stored SMS database file it might have remnants.
I went as far as having a friend who works for my carrier, run a network resend to see if they would be pushed to my handset again, to no avail.
i found out who they were just by contacting everyone it might have been. but i seem to remember this happening before at least once or twice, so it'd be nice to know there was a fix for this or a way to recover.

Unread Voicemail Notification

Ok I been on the rom Im on for a good long while, and I had pretty much all the bugs worked out. Then I switched to T-Mo and everything seemed ok till somebody calleed me and I decided I didnt want to talk to them. They left a voicemail and I called and pressed 7 on it and it deleted just fine, but my phone is still sayin I got a voicemail. Anybody know how to fix, and does anybody know what T-Mo charges for the visual voicemail service?
Hey,
I the have the same issue. The light flashes to indicate a v/m. I listen to the message and delete or save it but the light continues to blink indefinately.
In the end I decided to deactivate the visual alert for voicemails. I figured if someone leaves a message the likelyhood is that I have a missed call as well so the visual alert for that would grab my attention.
Good luck, I'm interested to know if there is a fix out there...
Btw I have an unbranded TP2 and the issue occured whilst I was on both the Orange UK and T-Mobile Network so I'm guessing it's a phone problem not network.
I've heard of people having phantom sms count issues but never voicemail.... I don't know if this will help but in the past I know people have used this file (attached)
just unpack it to your phone or storage card... run the .exe and a program will run telling you its clearing your count numbers etc then close. Reset the phone and HOPEFULLY it will fix your problem.
The problem is with the network and the settings. At least that's what I have experienced in Canada. When you bring an unlocked phone on to a network sometimes there are some little issues with network services. I would call an get the notification icon disabled through your provider. It's something they can control and it might solve the problem, but create another. like Eclipsed24 said .. it makes it not come up at all, but I'm sure if you miss a call ... you'll check your voicemail
Cheers,

Airvana and text messages

anybody else have issues with text messages showing an hour behind while connected to the airvana? Kind of annoying having to keep scrolling up to the top to read incoming texts! Guess I gotta make another call to sprint!......i tried to reset the unit but it did not fix it... If I get a text when im not connected to it the time is correct....
I am having the same issue. Stupid daylight savings time and badly designed technology. Let me know if you figure out a solution.
I know, Im having the same exact problem and its super irritating. So if someone finds out what is wrong please let me know!
Have you tried SMS Time Fix? It is free in the market and works for me since all of my texts usually have the time 1 hour too fast. I have an Airvana, but haven't noticed this issue since I have the Time Fix
it is a (now) known issue with the airave team. just received a call telling me so

Sprint VVM on GN?

Hello,
New to the GN, I was wondering if anyone managed to successfully put Sprint's VVM on their GN?
I never noticed it's not available on the Market til now.
Why not just use Google Voice? I hate it!
I can't even tell you how many times that freakin app would just automatically disregard my calls altogether by sending them to VM OR forward me the caller on their 4+ ring....by the time I answered the call (on 'my' first or second ring) they were hanging up. This happened even after it first time I noticed it was going on and fixed the settings online on my pc (cuz it wont let you do it on the app). I had this issue at least 3x so I'm done with that app.
Thnx!
Am I the only person who wants Sprints VVM on my GN?
NO! It's one of the features I miss coming from my EVO & CM7. I had gotten so used to it, never gave it any thought that it wouldn't be on the new phone. I need some VVM app!
I'm also coming from the original Evo.......I always used VVM but actually liked Google Voice, at first, thought it was neat having a back up log of my text messages and calls available online. Unbeknownst to me though I was missing a LOT of calls and picking up late even though it was only ringing once or twice at my end. I use my phone for work so it became a problem, once I linked the problem to Voice, I got rid of it. Mind you, deleting the app doesn't do squat to the settings, so the problem continues til you DELETE the association to your number online.
I never had any problems with Sprint's VVM and I want it back!
I don't know if copying the VVM apk will work and I'd rather not fudge up this new phone so I'm here asking if anyone else has tried it?!?!?

Text not always getting thru

I am having a problem that when I send a txt msg it doesn't get delivered till hours later. It doesn't always happen but it does. I have good signal and everything works fine. Also I tried calling a particular person and it rings then voicemail they never hear the ring. Then it goes to voice mail every call after that. So I am not sure if its the network, my phone or the other phone. We run in the T-Mobile network. Could it be the sim card or the antenna. It doesn't always happens. I even went full stock and it still did it.
On the official stock it would keep giving me a yahoo mail failed to sign in notification . But it comes and goes. So I'm thinking its my phone. Not sure
Anyone have an answer for this? Or have experienced this also?
Thank you in advance

It may help getting answers if there was a little more information regarding what you've done to the phone up to this point. Rom flashed prior to getting problems, apps installed, or settings tweaked, etc. I had a similar problem with a different device and it came down to the radio/modem version. If you can give a little more detail I'm sure folks here will chime in with ideas before doing a reset or something.
