Ok so I have had my evo since last July, Rooted and have flashed a hundred different roms on the thing over the last year... I've NEVER had any issues with voice/txt (cept mms with certain roms) I've been running the same 2.2 rom now for months (jiminy V). Now a strange issue happens with ANY sense based 2.3 roms (the leak and official, Doesnt happen with 2.3 aosp roms) Every call i make or receive claims to be roaming... 3g gps and txt all seem to work fine still
Any1 know how or why this would happen???
Most likely your PRL has changed, that and your APNs. I have the Evo on Cricket as well and haven't had this problem as of yet. I would check your flash to make sure that it is still working, the flash to Cricket I mean.
Thats the thing everything in epst looks the same. and ive also done a *228 which successfully update my prl and even after reloading the proper apn it still happens. also if i flash back using nandroid and or any other 2.2 rom it works perfectly fine again
I have some issues too. I could not get my youtube app or any video streaming to work. I already fixed the proxy settings and everything but still no luck. And also when i switch back to a 2.2 rom everything works perfectly. Any ideas?

Lol, I returned my first Evo due to it not being able to obtain the IP address from sprint for 4G.
So after various testing they gave me a new one today and well now it goes from scanning to connecting to authorizing back to scanning lol. Tried profile update reboot, prl, reboot everything I know of.
I am rooted and nand unlocked, running DC 3.2.3 with newest radios wimax etc.
Got the phone and told sprint i was in a hurry so i didn't let them update it to 1.47
And no it was not working out of the box...
So something is fishy
Well to make things clear...
I got the phone replaced as my old one would connect to 4g also, as I was leaving the store with the software version .6
4g was not working, this phone is fresh out the box. So I did Profile/prl/reboot, still didnt work.
I came home, rooted nand unlocked and installed whitlacks starting over guide... Still didnt work.
Then I installed DC over whitslack, wipred of course... and still doesnt work.
No backing up what so ever...
When I got into DC ROM i just manually installed apps/etc.
I got my replacement, rooted it, unlocked the nand and flashed fresh, and 4G worked. Actually, I installed the patched OTA update from unrevoked, the second release that didn't break 4g, but it still broke 4g for me. Anyhow, installed fresh, 4g worked again and I read that the new wimax radio improved signal with clearwire's 4g. Clear is providing the 4g in Boise, ID, I'm sure, even though it says sprint. So updated to the new radio and wimax driver...4g is broken and now I get no bars in my house; I used to get 2-3. :|
I think these new updates made everything worse!

From all the posts i've seen and from personal experience it seems like 4g works fine until you root. I think the problem is with the PRI reverting back to 1.34 I think it is vs the 1.40 update version. My replacement unrooted updates the PRI and is faster with both 3g and it actually connects to 4g here in Ft. Lauderdale whereas before the replacement with my 1.34 PRI phone I didn't even realize they were rolling out 4g here because it never even showed a 4g signal.
I think the main problem is 4g is not widespread enough so the ROM devs have no way of testing it.
Do the Whitslack method and see how rooted stock works. Something is up with the custom ROM's whether it is nandroid or possibly Titanium backup overwriting settings. Did you use Titanium backup or another to restore settings? I'm sticking with rooted stock for a week or two until it gets resolved. It is working great where a few customs would continually scan...

lol, nice.
I have my friends mytouch 4g that I rooted and was working fine with cm7 and all of the sudden he couldn't receive sms or send sms I can't find the problem. I flashed the phone to three different rims and the same thing happens sms still does not work. I was thinking if it was the radio update has anything to do with it since it does not have the latest radio update issued in the month of May. If anybody can help me out please do or if anybody has the similar problem let me know. Thanks.

I know for royal ginger you needed to use go sms to receive picture messages but I believe it was fixed with the update I still use go sms so not sure if it works with the stock message app.
So far I have found APN being
wap.voicestream.com
epc.tmobile.com
internet2.voicestream.com
might want to try those
i use the epc.tmobile.com one
Thanks guys. I will try to change the APN see what happens since I don't have my laptop with me to flash the latest radio on the phone. Funny thing is that it doesn't work on original stock Rom either, no sms or mms on stock messenger app. I flash three different roms before flashing stock Rom. The phone had cm7 and had it on the phone for months then it just stoped receiving and sending sms last Friday. I flashed a sense Rom, a cm7 nightly and even Miui latest Rom and everything works but sms.
I will try the APN setting see what happens now.
Thanks guys.
Changing the APN's did not work. The phone already had epc.T-Mobile.com and still no sms working. I will try changing to a gingerbread radio since the phone still had stock radio.

Here's something; phones can be disabled from being able to receive or send texts (My dad had it forever) it's usually a user enabled thing so you might want to call up tmo and ask about it. other than that I can only see it being the radio.
I have the same problem as the OP, but it only happened after I installed MIUI. (OFFICIAL MIUI.us 1.11.11:: ||demonspeedMOD INSIDE||)
I've been on Stock Sense and CM7 for almost a year now, and after I installed MIUI, I can't receive MMS or SMS anymore. I haven't tried going back to CM7, but I'll post if that fixes anything.
The weird thing is that my MMS and SMS in MIUI was working for the first day or two, and then all of a sudden it stopped. I can still send SMS and MMS, but I cannot receive them.
I have the latest radios and a kernel functional for the ROM, but everything is functional except for the MMS and SMS.
Any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated.
11/21 UPDATE: Well I just tried using a 3rd party SMS/MMS app (Go SMS) and it works like a charm. Both SMS and MMS work perfectly.
Glad everything is working now. I just kinda assumed at first that nobody wanted to talk to me anymore.
Since I cannot yet post in the actual development thread for this ROM I will post here.
The problem I am having is that since I installed this ROM I cannot send or receive MMS texts. I contacted the author directly and it was suggested to make sure mobile data was on. I keep mobile data on 99% of the time and have never been able to get the MMS working, but if I reflash my back up of the stock ROM it works fine again. Any help would be great.
Only thing I can think of is making sure the apn settings are right. I'd check that
Checked that too. There was an error but after fixing that still no MMS

I'm currently at a loss. I migrated away from the stock ROM as it is bloated and there are apps in it that I cannot seem to remove. Not to mention when rogers release the 2.1 update it made the phone slower and not worth trying to play any games on.
My phone works every but at home, I can't make a call or send a text from home. If I'm anywhere else it works fine. I can't seem to be able talk to the tower, if i use the open signal app it sees the tower and acts like I'm connected.
I'm running CM 7.1.0 speedy, I updated to 7.2 but had issues so i downgraded but that was weeks ago and it worked fine afterdown grageding.
It stopped working on 7-4, I live in the detorit area.
anybody run in to this before or know how to fix it???
*****updated
upgraded the radio, still no luck, flashed back to the stock ROM and still not working after updating the PRL. Called Sprint and the tech had me go though a bunch of resets and reprogramming. He still could not get it to work.
He said there was a issue at thee tower and they were working on it. He finally gave me a $15 credit on the account.
Is there a way to make you phone connect to a different tower?
You can force it to roam.
I believe the setting is under mobile network.
Its usually set to automatic, home is sprint network I believe, and I forgot what the other one is, but that one is roaming.
If you continue to have bad service at home, call Sprint. Then explain what's going on, and remind them that no service at home is grounds for being able to legally break contract. They will most likely offer you an AirWave. Just make sure it's free of charge. Lastly when you call make sure your on a Sense Rom.

Do a Nand of your current Rom. Then flash a Sense Rom, update PRL / Profile. See if that resolves the issue. If not call Sprint while your still on a Sense Rom. Ask them to reset your Data / Profile on their end.

Yes I know your Sense Rom runs with Zero issues, I have tried it . But he has some other weirdness going on.
I have three different people at Sprint reset my profile, none of it worked. I called on they way home and they are sending me the Air Wave, it is suppose to be free; we will see.
Oddly enough it was worked since I got home, I'm sure it will be out again in the morning. the thing about this problem I don't get is that it isn't just my phone acting up, it's almost like someone is hijacking the signal or cloned my phone or something and the network will not let two phones exist on the same number or address or what ever you want to call it.
Well I'm glad they're at the very least sending you an AirWave. Yes it's supposed to be free if your signal is non-existent at your home. The reason they do that is to keep you as a customer. Just keep an eye on your Bill . As for your phone being cloned, well it's possible. But very unlikely. If someone did it they would need access to your device for a good bit of time. I just noticed your in Detroit . How the hell are you having this issue in Detroit ???
I'm really not sure how one phone will work and one won't. I also really don't get how my phoe won't work since I'm less than a 1/2 mile from the closest tower, according to the Open signal app.
My house is aluminum sided, so I don't know if that is wreaking havoc on the new devices or not. I had a issue in the last year where my wireless router would drop out and I would lose connection with it. After repeat service calls I finally got a tech out that knew what he was doing and sugested that I switch routers or channels. After scanning for wifi for a few days I picked up on about 3 other people being on the same channel. I changed the channel and the problem went away.
I have a HTC One (M7) Flashed to cricket. They told me not to update the device because it would get rid of the flash and not work properly. This morning however while i was asleep I managed to update the device. I have tried it and it seems like everything works properly except for YouTube and MMS. GPS still works, and all other network related apps seem to work just fine. I am planing on taking it back to get flashed again. However another update appeared. Is it safe for me to update? Wont be a couple of weeks until I can flash it again, and I do rely on the network on my phone. What I would like to know is: 1)Is there a way i can get MMS and YouTube working properly again? 2)Can I update my phone and still have the data working until I can flash the phone again? Thanks for any help anyone may bring.
Cricket
I also use an HTC one m7 on cricket. Tmo branded I recently switched jobs and an now having trouble with the data in certain areas of the building. Sucks because my HTC desire 510 can get signal in the trouble spots. I'm attempting to flash a slew of different radios and I will post back what I find out
