I got my sim free legend today and updated to froyo. Everything went fine until I installed a couple of apps and went to set up my apns and settings kept force closin. So I guess factory rest would help, fone reboots lock screen comes up on unlocking the phone instantly comes up with force close couldnt even get into android. Tried a couple more times then pulled the sim out turned it on and setup come on and went fine. Any1 got any ideas why?

anyone know why when i start the new My Account app it stays on the screen that says "the my account application will be downloaded shortly"????
nothing happens.. no download... just stuck on that screen.
running the new tmobile 2.13 rom
Same here..after a couple tries it worked though.
I've had this problem for a week and it starting to really annoy me. I've flashed the .13 Rom when it leaked and again when it was "officially" released (it's the same). Nothing works, I've left it on for 10 mins, clicked it probably 4 dozen times over the week, had wifi on, then off, nothing works. Same for wife's HD2 which I upgraded to .13. Makes me wonder if it has something to do with my network area or my account??
hmmm
i can tell you that it is definitely not the phone or rom. i stuck my brothers sim inside my hd2 (he has a touch pro2) and it worked. i stuck my sim back in and magically it doesn't work again. i tried his sim again and it worked but again nothing going on with mine. so i'm guessing it has something to do with my account or sim card.
I had a working app untill I did a hard reset on advice of tmobile support. Now, it seems it will be downloading soon! So I called Tmobile... "this is a known issue.... what's your IMEI?" Lots of help guys!
...Everything seems fine, browsers work, phone works, connected to wifi (so it says), background working, tried to dowload updates the dowlad bars show but no progress, tried to down load free and paid apps, again down load bars show but no progress.
did a couple of soft resets still the same, Ill leave it over night in case the app store is down then try a hard reset, unless someone comes up with an answer before then.
I had this same problem with a Samsung Captivate. ATT couldn't help(after swapping sims, making sure I had the correct data plan listed), Samsung couldn't help(after broken English conversation for an hour), nothing in the forums helped. I could only solve it by hard resetting the phone, but the problem came back after 3 days. I never found out what caused it, I just returned the phone. Try the market using 3G, I doubt this will help, but once my Streak wouldn't download apps over wifi this week, so i turned wifi off and BAM back in business B-)

Hi, I had this issue when I first got my Streak, I had to log into the Talk app with my gmail address and then the downloads started
Phone is stock and not rooted.
This is extremely strange. I'm on Vodafone in the UK and I had installed the 7.0.1 update a few days ago. All was running fine.
Anyway, the Play Store issue had me confused, so instead of uninstalling updates, I decided to hard reset.
Did that and from that moment on the Sim card seems to have gone into a fit of turning itself off and on every 1-2 seconds.
I have reset a number of times and have now installed the 7.1.1 update, along with a hard reset and nothing has changed.
I have tried an EE Sim in the phone and this works fine. My voda sim I put in a Galaxy S 7 and that seemed fine too.
Yet when it is put back into my phone, it goes mad.
I only run one sim and have tried with SD Card in/out.
I am tempted to call it a faulty sim and go and get a new one, but thought I'd check here first.
Any experiences or ideas?
TIA
The plot thickens...a bit.
When I insert 2 vodafone sims, it works fine. Both sims are stable and I can make/receive calls as per normal.
As soon as I remove the one of the sims, it carries on as per usual constantly activating and deactivating sim.
Some more info...
Upon a hard reset the sim is stable and I can see data connection. I follow through the initial startup screen and skip as much as I can skip. Again, remains stable.
The last screen I get to is IZ location or something (can't remember) and asks whether you want to enable for h/w acceleration. I have tried this both on and off.
As soon as you click finish and it goes to the home screen for the first time, the sim immediately begins to fluctuate showing both signal bars empty, then one, then one with signal, then repeat.
Viewing from the dual sim settings page, you can see the sim activate, say it's vodafone, the disable as if it had been removed.
About as strange as it gets!!
Right, resolution in the hope that it helps someone else
After trying every conceivable way to sort this, it was time to downgrade.
Went back to B10 package from the German site:
http://www.ztemobile.de/support/downloads/?product_id=2100
Will install everything and upgrade to Nougat again...possibly!
Yep, just been through the exact same thing. I had to go back to b10, whatever you do don't factory reset in-between updates back to 7.1.1.
Don't do anything in fact, just upgrade.
I ended up losing my great battery life because of this, I wish I'd left alone.
Good luck.
Mike
Make sure you have OEM unlocking disabled in developer options. It was required to be on for the original sideoaded B10.

I was trying to look for discrepancies between the B10 6.0.1 and the 7.0.1 but there were too many.
I'm quite tentative about moving off MM to nougat after the shenanigans the other day.
I had a similar problem when I made the first upgrade to 7.0.
My primary (French Prixtel) SIM would turn on/off constantly - and was basically unusable... however a UK EE Sim was fine - when either run alone or in the 2nd SIM slot.
I tried my wife's Prixtel SIM in the A7 - it was fine ... tried my SIM in the wife's Honor 8 ... and it was fine ....!!
I tried downgrading back to MM B10 - my SIM still didn't work anymore - back to 7.0 .. the same.
Finally I reported my SIM to Prixtel as non-working - and they replaced it FoC ... and the new one works fine.... also after the recent upgrade to 7.1.1.

I tried multiple vodafone sims and had the same problem. Like you both Voda sims worked fine in other phones.
I would have gone the local Voda store, but they were...let's say 'challenging' to say the very least!
Good to know that other providers are affected too
You have this problem because you most likely have unlocked your bootloader. ZTE know about this problem, the only way to solve this is to go back to marshmallow, lock your bootloader then go back to the nougat build.
Hi, so I've got a Moto z force Droid (Verizon) and I've been using it the UK on giffgaff (carrier) it was working like normal for 3/4 weeks then my battery died and ever since I switched it back on I can't get any signal.
Things I've tried:
Hard reset
Factory reset
*#4636 - doesn't even do anything when entered
Cleared cache
I put 2 different sim cards in and they don't work but they do work on my old phone.
I've tried almost everything I can find by Google searching and YouTube.
I read something about flashing files but I'm a newbie and I'm pretty sure the phone is unrootable.
Any ideas or help to fix this would be amazing.
So ive had sprint as a carrier and my same number and plan for goin on like 15 years almost. i had the oneplus 7 5g pro on sprint for a good while. Some dum things occurred and i ended up losing that phone. So a buddy gave my an sprint iphone 6 to use til i figured out what i was going to do next. [i cant stand iphone lol] well i surfed around and found the essential ph-1 on sale for less than a $100 from multiple sources. So i go ahead and purchase one. Phone gets here and i take my sim out of my iphone and put it into this essential phone and thats where stuff gets wierd for me. if i can even make it to the menu to try to do an profile update or anything the phone will start like flashing a few times crash to the homescreen and then restart. it loads up cannot load android system your data may be currupt. try again or factory data reset. if i press try again the phone boots up fine get to the homescreen and it starts it all again. crash, restart. when i have gotten to the menu i notice my sim is saying boost mobile. but that cant be right cus when i use it in my iphone or any other sprint phone for that matter sprint locks in fine and good service and all. also if i dp a factory data reset and have the sim in it will show that its trying to register the carrier and it will just crash sayung somethign about a sprint app force closing. and then states the sim card has locked
so i have no idea what is happening. ive tried downgrading and taking all the otas and everything and im still having no luck
let me kno what you all think
update.
i went into sprint thinking maybe it was because im on an iphone or something and the sim didnt want to play nice transferring to and android. but they tell me that my new essential is a boost mobile phone and they cant activate my sprint account on it. asked them could they just relock it to sprint n they said id have to call the hotline.
so if its just because the phone has been unlocked to work on boost mobile. what would i have to do to lock it back to sprint.]
any help would be awesome
thx
