I have a XDA Neo(Prophet) running on Shadow WM6. I just came out of my home state and my phone does not work. Well let me explain. It says I have no signal/service, yet the Edge icon is still there. So my internet works just fine, but I can not even try to dial a number out. It will not let me open my contacts or my dial pad. When I call my phone, it does not ring yet I can see the incoming call on my caller id. I also tried scanning for available networks and I can see them come up, but it will not let my phone register on eather Cingular or T-Mobile.
WTF is this? This is realy a new one on me. I am still out of state, so I will see if it starts working when I get back home.
I think something is wrong with my roaming capability. But what?
Anyone at all? ? ? ?
Still nothing, huh?
This is what I got so far. I think there something wrong with my Shadow ROM. It seems not to really recognize the network. Instead of saying T-Mobile or Singulair in the network windows it says get more. WTF is get more?
Oh well, at least it works here.
how do i get rid of it, everytime i restart the phone, it comes back...its pissing me offfff LMAOOO HAHA....please anyone...help meeee
Did you ever figure this out?
I'm having this problem too since the latest rom upgrade. Seen a few others with the same problem after upgrading as well. I'm using ATT US X1a rom1.03.948.8.
I've tried a hard reset, swapping the sim out (as mentioned in another thread), using forwarding cancel codes (##62#), and obviously the normal call forwarding settings on the phone. It clears up the problem for a few soft resets, then it comes right back again.
call forwarding..
you seem to have call forwarding turned on.
Phone - Menu - Settings - services - call forwarding - get settings
there you will have all these type of settings like forward to number with no answer and also forward all calls.. just uncheck them all i guess.
Thanks

In NAM on AT&T, call forwarding is always turned on for something. Normally, it's turned on only for no answer and unreachable.
The phone should not show the call forwarding icon when these are the only services activated.
I don't understand how or why it happens, but I will occasionally get the call forward icon showing when I have nothing special turned on.
It will eventually go away, usually after I've had to power the device for some reason. Note, however, that it will not necessarily go away if I power the device to the specific purpose of removing the call forwarding icon.
I've never figured out what makes it show or why it goes away.
Lucky for me, I'm not too troubled by it.
Hmm
I think this problem is carrier related, (carriers have control over your call forwarding) because I have had this problem on many different phones from different manufacturers over the years. Not on my Xperia yet though.
Thanks for the replies. As stated in the earlier post, I have already tried unchecking, rechecking etc. As soon as it connects to the network it goes away. It seems to be an issue with the newest rom though as the previous rom does not have this issue at all (for me at least).
Call forwarding is definitely on the carrier side, but as soon as the phone connects to the network to pull call forward settings, it will always change the icon to the correct status (ie icon is there when forward all calls is on and not when it's not), which tells me that it's probably an issue with the rom, not the carrier. You're right about the settings George, but unfortunately I do use call forwarding from time to time and need to know when its truly on or off .
I've tried tweaking the cf values in the registry as well at hklm\software\htc\phone without any luck.
The call forwarding icon is also showing on my X1 I am on Orange UK.
I guess it can't be fixed.
Guys in US with AT&T.
I've got this issue that might be stupid but I suffer from it really bad. Everytime I get a new voice message, a text comes in with weired notes (which I know is for the phone to notify me) but I have to delete the sucker everytime. Or everytime I am in the voice box, it sends me another txt for deletion/
How can I get rid of this?
Do you guys have a good visual voice message system installed?
AT&T doesn't support any other phones except what they sell. AHhh
Thank you all.
Oddly enough my problem went away. I still think it's a ROM issue. I was playing with some other roms and eventually ended up flashing back to NAM R2AA008 (1.03.948.8). Restored my old config with full SPB backup and I haven't had the problem since.
I'm guessing that "if" it was a settings issue, the backup would've just recreated the issue. Plus hard resets didn't make the problem go away either. I even tried changing to a new sim as some people tried in other posts. But completely reflashing the rom seems to have done the trick for me at least.
The only difference that I can see is that I did the first update through SEUS. All the other flashes were done the old fashioned way. Not saying this would work for others, but it's been gone for weeks now for me.
Solution
Dial ##21# on the X1.
The "Call Forwarding" icon will disappear on the top bar of your X1. But, it won't affect your call fwd settings in the operator's mobile system.
P.S. I mean it won't change the call fwd settings defined by operator in the mobile system, e.g. no answer and the call will be directed to voice mail system.
##21# is the function code to cancel call fwd setup by your phone. If you did setup some call fwd scenarios on your phone, the call fwd icon will be displayed as an indicator for call forward is active.
For the purpose of just get rid of the icon right after power on or soft reset the phone, I think it is a simple solution.

I think most of the people having this problem on the thread are referring to a strange bug that seems to be affecting a small percentage of users. I've seen the same problem posted on a few other sites/threads as well. It doesn't really have to do with call forwarding being on at all, it's just that the icon is there. Using the forward codes or forcing an update will make it go away temporarily, but for me it kept eventually coming back no matter what I did. When my phone had the problem, I tried 21, 69, 67, 61. None of them made the issue go away permanently.
My X1 has this kind of problem as well. It is the problem from X1 itself, maybe the X1 can not log into the 2G or 3G network very well.

Whoa. LOL... I haven't seen this since the old Synergy Motorola days when we were all fascinated with foreign firmware.
I do not have this issue with the generic NAM or generic UK ROM in their latest iterations.
I guess the first thing anybody would normally suggest is to make sure you're on one of these ROM.

This is a carrier related issues. Some carrier has 2G and 3G network that if the area is not covered by 3G network, Internal using forward to their own 2G network in order to let the phone work. It happen not just on the X1, It happen on all other WM base phone I have before. However, if your carrier has only a single network whether it is 2G or 3G. This forward logo will go away. Good example. the 3 mobile Network in Hong Kong has 2G and 3G separate and on my X1, which use the 3 mobile has the forward logo all the time but on my Touch HD, I use the Smartone network which have a combine 2G and 3G network and you never see the forward logo.
Just so you know, same problem here.
The solution? I heop someone makes a pretty version for the "Call forwarding" icon haha.
With the help of Bxsteez I have fixed this issue with the R2 rom always doing this...

Since the last firmware update, I have the same icon showing up.
But there is a cure at least for US AT&T.........
Like it has been said before go to phone setting
Select Call Forwarding and hit the get setting button...
Once it retrieves the setting from AT&T net, the icon goes Bye-Bye!!
I have to do this every hard-reset or complete power down...
This what works for me...

Same here for T-mobile
Same problem on my X1 and I am using HK 3 network..
After beating myself to death, I finally managed to install Titan-WM6.5-21139-59-CR3 .
I really like the look and love the Weather, the windshield wiper is cute.
All seems well, But I can't connect to WiFi I keep getting unavailable...
And I have never connected to the internet before and just upped my data plan, but can't connect. IS this part of my upgrade ? do I need to set anything up ? called Verizon.. they put in ticket and will call me back ....
I didn't change radio.. I can make and receive calls and text ok...
I have installed no other programs...
Thanks
ReD
Is your ROM carrier specific? Sounds like you need a Verizon carrier cab to setup data connection.
Who built the rom? Some cooks change the carrier settings in their roms so that they do not have to worry about changing them later for lack of a data plan.
Try going to start-setting-connections-advanced-select networks
Pull vzw from the drop down box and select edit. Make sure the data network box is selected and also make sure that the number is "#777". Some cooks change the number to #778 or something that is one number off so they can not accidently rack up data charges.
fixxed
Finally got it going... seems it was a bad password...
Now I guess I can start to figure it all out. as I said I have tried for days to get 6.5 going, I have never flashed phone before and had lots of stutters on the way.
Now just to decide what I want and how to get it.
I love weather ( I am outdoor writer / fisherman )
I saw an animated weather panel with radar etc...
Would love to get it on my 6800 and I really don't like Internet explorer..
Thanks for the help guys...

Hello!
Just got my (new from Google) N4 yesterday. Existing Orange (EE) contract sim.
The bottom of the notification shade displays a load of @s with a pipe symbol in the middle at the bottom. I assume this is supposed to display the carrier (so Orange or EE).
I can't insert an image being a new user so: imgur.com/cN5L2NX.png
Also, there is no carrier text in the usual 'top bar'. Is it supposed to mention it there?
It is 4.22 (standard, as it arrived), has been rebooted etc.
Thanks a lot!
Seems to be a common problem on that network. Sorry but I can't remember if there is a fix, but a search should show up other people with the same issue.
Sent from my Nexus 4
There was similar stuff posted in the CM thread, seems the network names are buggered up as the phone doesn't recognise it - might need to get Android to add EE as a UK network
My calls and data seem to be working fine - would there be any 'unforeseen' problems from this? Couldn't see any resolution in the other thread.
If it's just the name, I really don't care!
It's just the name AFAIK so it should work fine
hi!
i bought the pomp w89,chinesee device ofc,sry i cant post a link im new her
im having a very wierd problem,it goes like this:
i insert my sim card and turn on my phone,and for a short time it works fine,i made a call,even though it took it about 1 min just to start the beep sound when you're calling someone(the dialing screen),and after a while i wouldnt get any signal bars,and sometimes i had FULL signal bar;and i was able to see the carrier info when you scroll the notification bar down,and other times i would get the carrier name and to the left "emergency calls only".
i dont know what is the problem,in other forum someone told me to change the modem or something like that and im kinda new to android so i dont know jack **** about how to do more complicated stuff.
the sim works fine on my other phone,i use samsung f480T and i dont understand the problem because both of them suppport the same networks :/
