Just flashed this ROM to check vzw compatibility. It requires you to make a call out after each reboot to get everything (SMS and receive phone calls) working properly. Does anyone know a solution to this? This is the only thing keeping me from running lineage

Had no issues going from cm13 to cm14 initially. After nightly on 11/16/16 have been unable to send sms. Receive just fine. Have to keep reverting back to 11/16. I checked all the carrier settings and they seem ok. Did notice, however, that the option to select nv/sim on carrier settings wasn't there after 11/16. Not sure why that would make a difference but thought I'd mention it. Any help would be appreciated.
I just got an LG G6 US997, unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP, and installed Lineage successfully. When I went through setup, the wizard never got past the SIM activation screen so I had to skip that. The service state shows as "Out of Service" with a signal strength of 0. I can't send or receive text messages or receive calls, but data seems to work just fine. I've found that if I place an outbound call, everything seems to reset and then the service state moves to "In Service" and I get a signal strength. After that, I'm able to send and receive texts and receive calls. Tried a new SIM from Verizon... no change. I tried flashing the latest stock ROM (17A) to see if there was still a problem and everything activated without any issues. I was able to send and receive texts and receive calls no without issue. After trying another clean install of Lineage, I'm back to the same issue. Any thoughts?
Same for me
Thank you for posting, I was able to get my text messaging working after making a call. I used TWRP to flash Lineage 15.1 and MindTheGapps.
Any updates on the long-term usability of this ROM?
Cheers
You can try to not use a sim to set it up then use the method that scy gave
Hoping to get some assistance or maybe even just clarification on this topic...
So, I purchased an unlocked S8 Active with the Sprint branding for use on T-Mobile network. After updating the proper APN settings, I was up and running fine, but wanted to get Wi-Fi calling back, so I flashed over to the latest T-Mobile firmware available at Sammobile - G892USQS3BRG5. Ok, before you say anything, yes, it was stupid to flash a brand new v3 bootloader, but it's done so no going back (to my knowledge). Anyways, flash went fine on Odin 13.3.1, but upon reboot there is the Sprint splashscreen. It even tried to constantly verify the SIM card with the Sprint OMADM app, which I have since uninstalled through adb.
Any chance anyone can provide any insight into this (admittedly minor) issue? I don't really have any major issues other than the aforementioned Wi-Fi calling is gone, and I have to use a third party messaging app due to MMS not playing nicely with the Samsung version. Any help on this would be great, and maybe we can stir up some discussion to help prevent someone else from making the same mistake.
I'm curious where you got the ODIN you used.
I have an S8 Active, but an AT&T version, and need to do the same thing - I want to flash G892USQS3BRG5 onto it for the same reason - WiFi Calling won't work AND I cannot get cell calls when my WiFi is on which has resulted in me missing important calls.
When I tried to flash I got a PIT error using what I think was the same version of Odin (patched).
I'm pretty new at this reflashing stuff so perhaps I did something stupid?
Thanks
Hi,
I recently bought a new galaxy s5 SM-G900F from an amazon marketplace seller and immediately flashed it with lineageOS 16 following the instructions at lineage os wiki -> /devices/klte/install. Everything seemed great until I put my 3 UK sim card in - it recognizes it and shows that I am on the 3 network but with pretty poor / variable signal and phone calls don't work: incoming calls just don't show up at all and with outgoing calls it says it is calling but I don't get any ringing tones and the other side doesn't get anything.
Interestingly for someone calling this phone they get the normal ring tone once and then it changes to the ring tone I would expect if I were calling abroad.
Sadly I didn't take a backup of the software that was already on it and I didn't try it before flashing lineageOS.
Lineage OS showed the baseband firmware as G900FXXS1CQA3. I have since tried flashing new modem firmware to G900FXXU1CQK3 and even full samsung images (latest samsung stock UK BTU) using heimdall - again, everything seeems to work except calls.
Any ideas what I can do?
I would try some other ROM to see if you still face the same issue.
I installed the latest lineageOS 19 version, rooted my phone then ran into this problem where the phone says i have service, but when i place a call it wont fully make the call. Then my mobile data will X out and i get pop up error saying mobile service is unavailable. I then tried lineageOS 18.1 and arrowOS and same problem persists.
formating between installs obviously.
I have looked at every option on this phone and tried combinations and everything in the network/system/ everything and still not working.
The process was actually very simple since i have some programming experience. Other sources mention possible baseband issues? On the fastboot screen it shows a baseband version. all the information there appears normal. I only flashed the boot image one time to root and didn't mess with any other manual flashing processes. Just used twrp. I didn't quite understand twrp at first and therefore didn't get a backup using it... iused adb to make a backup which apparently didn't work so Im lost and hope someone could help me out here. please and thank you!
If i may add I can use mobile data just fine, i can browse the internet and such (with wifi off and data on only) so i really dont understand. Is this a normal issue to have when using custom roms? did I trip some security that blocked me now? any input???
I wonder, though, this moto g7 is an A/B partition thing. so if i understand correctly, flashing twrp would not work and thus why i did not do that. it makes sense. But should i try flashing it, booting into it then installing lineage? even if i did i feel like that would give me same issue considering the method i followed got me into lineageos, plus root checker said i was rooted.
What I can tell you is what I had to do in order to get LTE (voice calls) running on my G7 - I was forced to switch over to LTE because AT&T turned off 3G here in the US and 4G without LTE is not good enough for voice calls:
Get the latest stock firmware and install it using e.g. Lenovo's "Rescue And Smart Assistant". That will get Motorola's Android 10 on the phone.
After installation, go through setup and actually make a call (calling your mailbox is fine). Then check your ims status (*#*#4636#*#*, goto phone info, pull ims status) to see that ims is actually working.
Shutdown the phone and start installing LOS (use the partition copy script too to make sure that the partitions not touched by LOS installation are updated "on the other flash bank").
Go through LOS setup, select a valid APN for your setup, set "LTE only" or "LTE / WCDMA" for the network and make a call. You should be good to go.
Again this is what I had to do to get LTE working with AT&T USA. YMMW.

I know this is way late, and you probably already figured it out. I didn't share the no text problem. The Problem isn't just the "LTE" setting itself. There is one more option(some Roms show it, some don't) I believe its in the phone app settings? VOLTE must be checked. I have noticed Some Roms do have this option and some don't. when volte is checked, it'll keep your data/internet on during a call, some Roms that option won't show up or isn't available. I haven't used G7 in a while, but I do remember the problem and how to fix (on my phone anyway).
