Try factory data reset can help you..
Backup Your data First.

Appreciate the effort to help but I did a factory reset as soon as I bought the phone. Stupid salesmen in the store insist on teaching me how to use a smartphone. I remeber even before the factory reset the emergency call thingie was still present on the lockscreen.
Sent from my SM-G900H
Factory reset won't change this. It's normal behavior. Also why would you want to change this. It's there so you can call an emergency contact. You can add your own contacts to the list by adding the contract to the ICE (Incase Of Emergency) group in contacts.
That way if something happens to you. Someone can call an emergency service or your ICE contact without unlocking your phone.

Thanks mate. So this is part of the ICE?
Damn I should've thought so

Change the unlock method to other than fingerprint.

Did you ever get any help with this? I have been reading the Note 2 post, and I think I may have read the whole thing from where they started talking about the S4 till the end, as well as about half the rest. I cannot get my S4 to get data working at all. I am in need of the Nandroid backup as well, unless you got it and it didn't work for you.
Nope no one seems to want to help ..but I have gotten the 3g function to work on the s4 by flashing the correct aaa passwords still cannot update profile or prl

Thanks! I had made it CDMA only, but not in there, in ##DATA#.
You know what, this means that I may have gone through all the headache for nothing. I'll start over and we'll see, it may all work without need of *2/activation.
Yeah the *2 method will not work unless the s4 was previously activated on a sprint account

Well, changing the data to CDMA didn't work either. I also have been reading on Nandroid backups that may help with this, and I think what we would need is the carrier. Someone said that EFS is ok to share, but carrier one would have user specific data once it has been activated. So, I guess my fix will be to get them activated on a Sprint line first, then go through the flash.
Thanks for your help!
For some reason it seems I can't get text messages. I could make calls, send text messages, go on 3g and 4g lte and I could even send SMS. But whenever someone texts me I can't receive it.
I have tried updating my prl and profile even that won't fix it. I could really use some advice....

Other than what you stated that you have already tried...I dont have a clue. Sprint could be in the process of upgrading towers in your area which typically does wreck all kinds of havoc. Call customer care and check if that should be the case. If not, try clearing cache for messaging.

This has been happening for more than two weeks. And my HTC one on the same network can receive texts just fine. Since i'm rooted i've been switching to different roms to see if I could finally relieve texts. I went from Sacs custom rom to CM 10.2 and I just flashed stock rooted MF9 but I still cant receive texts. I'm thinking about restoring back to stock to check if text's work. Any suggestions?

Call Sprint and ask them to re-provision/activate your phone. This resets the recognition of your phone to the neighbouring Sprint towers.
You might want to flash back to a stock ROM before doing so.. Just in case they ask you to do something on your end.

I searched around but couldn't find anything to solve my problem.
I just bought a LG G2 D800 from Ebay, clean ESN and I double checked it and it was clean.
I unlocked it in CyanogenMod which only required 1 unlock code, but then reverted to stock 4.2.2 restore where there's 5 different locks? When I try to tap each it displays, "Your phone is not personalized".
I slotted my MetroPCS SIM in and the phone displays "Phone not allowed MM #6" on reboot.
Those are all the steps I have done so far to try and use my MetroPCS SIM. This is my first time ever using a GSM Phone, I have no idea what to do now. I've tried to look around Google and XDA and can't find my problem. There was no errors on the AT&T SIM.
looks like a carrier simlocked phone. Is it carrier branded?

Factory reset has done nothing.
Basically, I unlocked the phone, but it isn't unlocked.
Is there any way to reset the lock? Or something of that nature.
Unlike the yureka of my friend ( which registered his yureka and its IMEI number when switch on for the first time with sim card inserted through SMS.), mine didn't registered itself.
I have performed factory reset 3 times still no help. The MMX register service is running still not registering my phone through SMS.
Plz help someone !

I already made many calls to my friends using it.. Still no help.
Were you connected to WiFi or using your data pack during the first call? Or did you called the support number?
I tried all those still no help
Also if possible please enlighten me about the com.cyngn.yu app in app settings..

Yes i was connected to wifi at that time.
Also i didn't happen on the same day i got it. Most probably it is the registering app.
you can try everything thats suggested by people,my advice RETURN it before its too late,try with their customer support,we may not be able to help you here
So man act quick
Dial *06# for IMEI No. for any working phone!

Flash a better modem for your phone. Might do the work.
Maybe perform a factory reset? Reflash a stock ROM?
