Update your PRL / Profile, then reboot. See if that helps.

Usually this is the only glitch I get. I hear they are bringing 4G here. Sprint and verzion are the big ones here. Sometimes wish I could run my phone to use everyone's towers

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.

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.

Are you trying to download them over wifi? Apparently sprint doesn't like that, try it on 3g

This. Sprint's MMS server is not accessible over the public internet, thus you must download on 3G.
Most Sprint phones will automatically run the data transfer over 3G (without manually turning off/on wifi), not the Epic though.
That said, many of the custom ROMs resolve this issue (including Heroic, which I run).
Thank you sooo much to all that replied.. because that's was the problem. I had my wifi on.. I guess its time to get a custom rom..

I'm having a serious issue with the market and I have not been able to find any solutions. No matter what I do, applications will not download. I've wiped cache, dalvik cache, even a factory reset or three and nothing. So I odined back to stock di18 and it still won't download anything. Anyone have any ideas?
Lol - we made threads within a minute.

Same problem here. Tried downloading an update, and says "Download Unsuccessful" in the notification bar.
I have 2 friends that have the epic 4g and are having the same issue! I rooted the phone for them using the one click root 2.4 and upgrade both to froyo 4.2 beta! I cant say if they had this issue before or not, but they definitly have it now.
Problem: open market try to download any app, it will say that it will download shortly and show briefly in the notification window but then just goes away and never downloads.
I have try connected and disconnected from wifi. Problem still exsist.

Haha I was concerned it was something I did so I explored all my options! But I've got backups for a reason . Anyway as was said in the other post it's working now so no issues anymore! haha
I know that *#*#4636#*#* works for some general info on the phone, but what I would really like to do is recalibrate my touch screen. Anyway I can do that? Also, I think it would be a good idea to start gathering the list of the codes for the Evo Shift 4G. Anyone know of any other working codes?

##3282# to reset your data profile. Useful if your seeing very slow data speeds. My internet was crawling at a 150kb/s when I got the phone and now runs over 1mb/s after I did the reset.
Pick edit mode and type in your msl. Then pick data profile, push menu and hit restore.

Forgive me if this is different than what you're looking for but can't you recalibrate the screen under Menu>Language and Keyboard>Touch Input>Text Input>Calibration Tool?
#3: I didn't *think* that was what I was looking for, earlier today, but after trying it anyway, it really seems to have fine tuned the whole screen! I stumbled on to it this morning and tried it, I'm sure others will want to find a fix, someday. Thanks for posting!
#2: how does one obtain their MSL? On Windows Mobile I had a handy MSL Grabber. Is there a good one in the market?

I used MSL Reader from the market. You need root so I used z4root to get access.

Call Sprint and tell them you want it. Sometimes they'll ask why, but I have never been denied. I always tell them the truth. I like to reset and adjust things all the time. It has never failed.
Called Sprint today and asked. They said " No problem sir hold on....here is your MSL"
Thanks for the tip. Glad to know it's that easy!

In Supreme Sense and MikShifted-G its in menu*settings*display to calibrate the screen and to calibrate the keyboard its in menu*settings*language and keyboard*touch input*calibration tools....maybe if your just stock rooted you could de odexed the settings.apk from a rom that has this setting and push it to system/app then reboot and it could work

I flashed back to stock rom and this error is gone so i guess its cyanogens issue. anyone has a solution to help?
thanks!
I've tried the same thing! I get the same issue. I heard you change the apns but I tried to put in AT&Ts and when I get to the last prompt it doesn't save. Id love to use a diff. Network for data because my signal in my work is poor. I heard you can't get 3G is this true?

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

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.

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,

How about using stock rom to activate before flashing a custom? You can nandroid your current setup and restore to it after you activate.
