flash back to sense update your data profile, and prl then test the texting then restore your nandroid should work

Thats what I expected, I just didnt want to jump on the update and crash my phone.
yea it should all good. I've heard of it not finishing the install on some roms but to my knowledge it shouldn't break anything.

Hmmmm... Mostly stock Epic here, but I've noticed that after this update: My voicemail widget no longer works. It shows unable to load on the screen. If I create a shortcut to the app, it works fine. Problem is, there's no indicator of how many voicemails you have without the widget.
EDIT: Sorry... Didn't reboot the phone. That fixed it. It helps if you read ALL the distructions

Not getting text messages

Anyone else experiencing the same issue? I'm on 6.1 CM. Not getting any text messages, however I am able to send them. Help? ??

I had this problem once on cm6 on the hero.... I had to wipe, load a sense rom, verify SMS worked both ways then really load my cm6 rom.... I've read others have done this as well....good luck
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
LOL, thanks for the response. I just did that exact thing. Have a sense ROM running fine now.
I wonder if I could jump right into a CM7 nightly? Don't wanna have this issue again...

Why not?

Ok, I got SMS back by flashing a sense ROM then back to the latest CM7 Nightly. However, still getting the V30 voicemail error.
Is anyone else having Sprint VVM errors? Hard to believe I'm the only one.
Thanks
Just wanted to follow up. I restored Sprint VVM via titanium and it worked.
Text messaging is an on and off problem with sprint.... doesn't matter what rom. Making a call sometimes fixes it.

Im on warm 2.2 and this happened to me a couple of days ago. The only reason I even knew was because I was getting texts from someone on google voice that has both of my numbers and they were asking me why I wasnt responding. I rebooted like 3 or 4 times and like 20 texts and 10 mms messages came through.

PLEASE CLARIFY What Rom For Epic 4G Will Auto Act With SPRINT

there is 100 posts about people not wanting the automatic activation to start on their epic after flashinf a new ROM. i want the opposite, i can not for the life of me find a ROM that WILL work with automatic activation with sprint after flashing.

thanks in advance

Not sure what you are asking. Is it about the OTA to Gingerbread or hands-free activation? I have done hands-free activation on a few ROMs with no issues. No rooted ROM will let you get the OTA updates.
I infer that the OP is talking about hands-free activation. If that's the case, I have flashed a bunch of roms from 2.1 through 2.3 and hands-free always worked.
Can you elaborate?
He may have odined with efs clear or whatever checked off. I don't remember exactly what it was but phones weren't reactivating without calling sprint.

Mine reactivated fine. 3 days later it wierdly disconnected and the call went to Sprint and they reactivated it. Had nothing to do with the ROM.

When I fist got my epic and was switching phones I contacted the sprint chat support and they had me enter a dialer code and enter my # in a couple fields. The phone rebooted and was active. Not sure if that helps, I was on stock rom and even it didn't auto activate.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
sorry, to be clear, i am having a hard time with the handsfree activation after flashing a rom to this device.
many folks seem to request the exact opposite built into roms for this phone. meaning upon install and reboot, the rom will not run and complete handsfree activation.
no roms seems to have in the description that handsfree activation is supported.
does that make a little more since? if not let me know and i can give more details
thanks all
cheers,

All roms have hands free supported that's why you don't see it mentioned. You only activate once brand new out of the box not everytime you flash a rom. Unless you mean the google activation then just open then market and sign in then your google acct is then activated
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I agree, you only have to activate once ever, until you get a new phone. This is a non issue as a result.

I just got my phone.
Ohhhhh!
Get it? Sense the OP didn't spell it right?
Ohhhhh!
Just flipped it on my ass. Like a boss.
Sorry. Drank a Steel Reserve, a couple "C-"s and smoked a blunt during my horrible loss in softball tonight. Thought that was funny.
Good night everybody. Love you all.
I was referring to a while back noobnl started a thread about checking off extra things in odin in relation to clearing nvram or something back when we were trying everything under the sun to fix the gps. I don't remember exactly but when you did it your phone went back too literally out of the box condition deactivated and all.

Never saw anyone requesting on the Epic threads that their phone not activate when switching ROMs. Maybe you saw that on a different phone. The only thing requested here was to stop the OTA update notification.
How did the phone become deactivated
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
the phone was completely wiped, it was a gimme from a friend, i wiped it totally and started fresh. rooted, flashed rom, etc, (froyo) and now after rest it of course starts handsfree act but it crashes before activation finishes.
depending on rom, sometimes the MIN/MDN updates before crash which allows voice/txt only. thats about it. maybe its not the rom's, but i assumed since some will at least go that far. i can not see how it would be anything else because the phone started out as if it came from manu. fresh.
thanks for input everyone, much appreciated
cheers,
disco
How about using stock rom to activate before flashing a custom? You can nandroid your current setup and restore to it after you activate.

Well the first thing you should do is upgrade to MikShifted G v1.76. It's just a patch, so you won't lose any of your info. You can find the upgrade HERE. After you do that the MOD you want is on THIS THREAD. On that thread was also a link on how to change the PRL.
Force roam didnt work. And sprint data reset code for its msl isnt doing anything either
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
Do you mean ##775# ? When you say Force Roam didn't work, what exactly do you mean? Just trying to get a better grasp of what you mean.
##72786# and ##3282#, i typed it and the display showing what i typed went blank. The only way to get the touch pad to respond again was to hit the home button. And my phone did use the mod and i forced it to roaming but it still gave me a generic network error.

I am also having MMS problems. I used MikG 1.76. I switched back to x99percent Sense Stock rooted GB update 2.76.651.5. Works fine now. Maybe something having to do with MikG Rom. Mik hasn't updated it in awhile. Just released a few mods since 1.76

Not sure what your trying to do with ##72786# , as far as I know that's not a real code. ##3282# should bring up the ESPT menu, View or EDIT. Choose EDIT then enter your MSL. ##775# , is also valid. Just checked both on MikSHifted G, both codes work. Also just tried the Force Roam mod, all good. If you already updated your PRL / Profile. Try booting into recovery Wipe Dalvik, Wipe Cache, and then reboot.

Both sms and mms are heavily dependant on mobile data network. If you are connected to wifi and you are in a area with poor mobile data network or you don't have a mobile data plan then a lot of times you will not be able to send/receive texts or mms. If you have a mobile data plan try turning off your wifi before sending or to check for received messages.
Sent from my PG06100 using xda premium
Ok I Reflashed the MikG 1.76 and its starting to work again. No Generic Network Failure anymore. Sent mms on WiFi within seconds. No problem at all. Maybe it is the PRL. Try Reflashing the ROM completely if PRL doesn't work.
Its you bro. Not the network. "The key to self recovery is admitting you have a problem".
I called my local sprint store. Theyve been having other people with the same issue. They said two dozen since they opened today and i called at 11am. They have people working on it

Yeah that happened to me before in the area I use to live in. The mobile network was messed up and they kept telling me that they were working on it. But it never really seemed to improve much until I moved.

SMS/MMS being weird

My wife has my old Epic 4G.
I put ACS ICS ROM on it, back when I had it, and she's been using it for a month or so.
Yesterday her phone stopped sending and receiving texts. I pulled the battery, waited a few minutes, then rebooted. it sent 2 text messages, then stopped again. It doesnt work today either.
I don't think ACS ICS ROM is even being worked on any more.
What should I do?
Flash back to stock then flash cm7.
Odin in EC05 tar, root then flash a GB ROM and then flash the EC05toEI22 modem delta.
Firmware version: 2.3.5
Baseband:S7000.5S.EI22
Kernel:2.6.35.7.nubernel_v0.0.2
Build number: ACS ICS
Hardware: D700.0.5
Also, I tried clearing data and dalvik. Didn't expect that to do anything. It didn't.
Should I downgrade EI22 to EC05 then back to EI22?
Update PRL and Profile. Then remove battery for a minute the power back up. And don't use any task killer that clears level 2 RAM.
