Restore your backup
Try reprogramming it *228

I had been using Sprints ROM for some time but I got the itch to try a new ROM when I was on duty in Montgomery, AL. Montgomery has excellent EVDO coverage and I never have to roam. I started noticing a problem when I went home to Decatur, AL where Sprints network isn't so great. Every time I was roaming and I would send a text it would immediately fail. I didn't notice the roaming=fail issue for a while but when I noticed it I put my phone on home network only and all is well. Unfortunately at home I roam nearly all the time which means no texts or calls. I would have to leave my phone on home network and basically could only send/recieve texts in certain locations in my home. Well a week went by and I kinda just lived with the issue... I tried to make a phone call roaming and got this message, "Welcome to Verizon Wireless. We're sorry, we are currently unable to authenticate your phone. Please try your call again. If you continue to experience problems please hang up and dial #8899 from your wireless phone. Announcement 11 Switch 113-5." Just recently I flashed to DCD's latest rom and have the same issue. I use USB to flash my ROM... I tried dialing #8899 and it gives me an automated menu but it doesn't say Sprint or VZW...
Anyone have a clue on how to fix this?
anyone have any suggestions to point me in the right direction?
I really needed to make a phone call last night but I couldn't cause I didn't have any sprint signal... tried like 10 times on roaming but kept getting the same error..
Got it fixed. Had to spend 2.5 hours on the phone with Sprint. Changed settings on the phone about 50 times... finally they did something on their end. Lady said they had to cancel my account and recreate it to fix it in the system. Oh well.
For completeness, I think the thing you had to do was get an HLR Reload.

I rooted my g1 and now I can't get service from tmobile.
Try going back to RC29 and see if you get service that way. From there, try following the steps exactly to reroot, update to Donut, and see if you have service.

Something is up with T-Mobile, I have had signal all day, and my phone is rooted, yet now I have no signal. Nor does any of my family, or friends, and only one of them have another rooted G1.
yeah i had a signal and everything, ijust couldnt send/recieve texts/emails. i was on cyanogens latest, figured it was his rom, and am now on a hero rom. im sending texts and getting emails, so i am assuming it was the rom.
the same thing is happening to me on cyanogen 4.2.3...should i just change roms?
apparently its t-mobile:
Important message for T-Mobile customers

but that doesn't explain why oshizzle inst having problems after changing roms..
t-mobile was down for awhile. did not effect data, but phone/messaging were out. see if ie boots.
Hey guys,
Here is the scoop, my Dream was working perfectly and all of a sudden my phone said no service.
After troubleshooting a bit and no luck I decided to wipe the phone and start fresh in case I installed something that messed it up, still nothing.
I took my sim card out and cleaned the contacts with rubbing alcohol to make sure all was good and still no service. I then decided to use only 2G and my service came back. According to Robbers my account is good because I tried my sim card in an IPhone 3g and I get full reception in 3g no problems.
I cant find any info on this..Can anyone help?
Same here
Same here, fastest way I found to fix it was to reboot the dam thing...
God I hate myself for installing the last "mandatory" upgrade...
Rebooting didnt help... the ONLY way I got service was to force only 2g.. nothing else worked.
Check that you have the proper apn settings. Some ROMs don't have them right/don't have them.
I'm on Robbers latest e911 fix rom... unrooted no cooked rom installed.
I did 5 days of research and finally (almost) fully flashed my droid 2( MMS was not working). I love the fission rom but i found that the wifi tether was not working. As i was reading the instructions from the Fission 2.5.7 page i came to know about the wifi tether patch. So i backed up everything and then unzipped the wifitether. It did it's thuing( I noticed that when it was decompressing, it modified my nv item)
Reboot!
BAAM!
No 3g network and worst no cricket network.
I tried to reflash it but with no luck. I used prl 42600 before. I reflashed it with prl 38515 but with no luck.
Also, unlike others i had a Cricket pay go account. I have been paying $35 and not $45. Regardless the phone had everything except MMS service yesterday. Download speed was about 80 kilobytes/s which is fine for me.
Also, when i flashed my phone i had to call cricket customer service and had to tell them that my old phone was broken so i asked them to change my phone. They charged me $15.
At last, I thank all the guys from this forum and other sources to finally let me get a good phone in cricket service.
i am still with just 3g and i have changed my rom and did the reflash and asked the cricket service to reprogram my phone but still no luck.
But i still have the 3g connection and can go online. Nothing else works. Not even 611!
Plz help or just a hint
#1 phone in on verizon network thru PagePlus
Please read my short post carefully and try to respond with a solution, for it may be effecting more then me. Thank you.
About 1 month ago phone would stop responging to apps requesting cell towers ID.
It was gradually getting worse.
Today what ever app i use, not one of them is able to get ANY cell tower names/ID anymore.
Phone is on 13A rooted via dirtysanta method. (does not matter, it does not work even if not yet rooted)
I tried reset the phone. Reflash firmware. Wipe cache/dalvik you name it.
I tried installing NO OTHER APPS and just install one app specifically to read cell towers and its not working.
So clearly, apps are not to blame.
I tried using Verizon simcard and my own tracfone/pageplus no change.
I tried upgrading to original firmware 15A, no change.
Problem started creeping up slowly and now its a constant issue.
Can someone help me with that ? What can i possibly do to resolve this ?
Thanks guys.
But are you getting data? Can you use Verizon data to browse online etc? Did you try a different sim card?
