Is there some way to add in a fixes while using the AT&T Atrix on Rogers for new voice mail icon always on, sms having the wrong time and pay phone displayed for some incoming calls? I had none of these issues on my nexus, both cm and stock. Thanks.
*UPDATE*
After trying my sim in several different phones and not being able to recreate the constant new voicemail displayed I tried swapping out my sim for a newer one and the icon seems to be gone for now. I also asked the rogers rep to exclude "name display" for the third time and I hope it finally works.
The voicemail icon is not a problem for me. SMS Time Fix fixes the time stamp issue and calling rogers and getting them to exclude the "name display" option on your call display fixes the payphone problem.

exact same for me
I can't seem to get rid of the new voice mail, I put my wifes sim in(rogers) reflashed ect... always comes back soon as I put my sim in.
I had the vm issue on my galaxy vibrant before. Just call your no, leave a vm message. Then check your vm and listen to it and erase it. That fixed it for me

Yeah I've tried that... I even tried that putting my sim into my nexus(the nexus didn't show an icon but I did it anyways).
The VM issue is a Rogers problem, one that I had on my old G1 too. You have to call them and go through all their useless troubleshooting. None of it works of course, so in the end I had to have my VM account removed and re set up and that fixed it.

yeah just seems weird, my nexus doesn't do any of these weird bugs. I really hope one of the scripters can fix these issues. I'm using gingerblur now, I wonder if some settings and stuff can be imported from CM or similar.
Hey guys, there is a known issue. Call in and ask that the CSRs please "exclude name display" from your account. This will resolve the incoming caller ID issue. A reboot shouldn't be required but wouldn't hurt.
For voicemail, please leave a voicemail and then check it. Either delete or save the message by hitting 7 or 9, and then hit # after to back out of the menus before ending the call. Too soon and the voicemail waiting indicator would stay. It irritates the heck out of me but you don't have to put up with it. It will go away if you do this.
Sometimes you may need to add/remove voicemail from your account. A CSR will do this and TSRs may be empowered to make this account change as long as it pertains to troubleshooting.. not too sure.
Any data issues too, get the TSR dept to reset the network connection from their end. They'll have you power cycle and it will fix data issues. My bud had a problem but I patched it up for him via Chat Support.

I wouldn't call it flawless, but yeah once you have the proper apn's it works fine call wise and data wise. It's just some little things that need to be ironed out. Hopefully once the Atrix goes global we'll see that disapear.

Name display and if you use network time(or use sms time fix) your sms is way out. The network time is really useful for me as I travel a lot. The name display is also useful for knowing who someone is while I'm not at home so I don't pay long distance. The new voicemail thing is annoying and seems weird that it doesn't do it on my nexus, tilt or e71.
*UPDATE*

Hi everyone,
I am not able to make call to one specific number, to my wife's mobile. I can make calls to a lot of other numbers and also she can receive calls from a lot of people also. When she calls to me, no problem, works perfect.
I am right now using CM9-Defy-19032012 from Epyslon3, but I got the same issue using CM7.2 nightly (a few of them). No problem with Motoblur Android 2.2.
Thanks for any help.
Maybe you realy did it, but in case not, check your wife's phone blacklist, sometimes happen that in misterious ways when any person try to answer a call, by mistake touch "deny" or something similar then the phone automatically put that number in the blacklist.
This happened to me between my wife's phone and mine sometime ago.
Hope that helps

You were totally right. I was in her blacklist (settings->call settings -> blacklist). Now it is working again. You saved my marriage.

Yep.... one more happy customer here!
Very useful topic!
How do I turn the Roaming Guard off for Voice? When I tell the phone I want it to roam for data and voice, it automatically turns on the roaming guards for both. However, I cannot uncheck them because they are greyed out/unselectable. When I make a data connection while roaming, it warns me but gives me a check box to check if I don't want to see that message again. I check the box and go back to roaming guards and the greyed out Data guard is then turned off.
However, when I make or recieve phone calls while roaming, I get the roaming guard warning but no prompt or check box to turn the message off in the future.
Do others see the roaming guards as greyed out as well? Is there anyway to force that warning off? I'm not rooted yet as I'm still inside my 14 day exchange window.
They are greyed out for me as well. I haven't made a call yet while roaming, but I did get the same option for data that you got.
Thanks. Well that sucks if we're not able to turn it off! I just got off the line with Sprint and they tell me the roaming gaurds should not be greyed out. They could not confirm it on an S4 as they didn't have one handy (!), but did confirm it on an S3. I make a lot of phone calls while roaming, so this could be a deal breaker for me on the S4. That would suck as I'm pretty pleased with the phone otherwise.
How about folks with the new MDL update? Can you tell us if the roaming guards are greyed out on that level also?
Are you speaking about the GSM section?
I have 3 sections in my Roaming Guard, Domestic CDMA, International CDMA and GSM. I'm concerned with the Domestic CDMA, but all of mine are greyed out except for Outgoing SMS under the International CDMA section.

Thanks. But I do not know what an RTN Reset is. I searched the forum, but didn't find any hits for that term.
So before you did the reset, those were greyed out? And the reset made them selectable? If so, it'd be interesting to know what is causing this issue.

Alright then... i might just wait untill i install a custom rom so that way it'll be as easy as possible
I believe I found the culprit. I have been checking the roaming guard as I rebuilt my phone. All was fine until I did the clear data and force stop on the Google Services Framework. I did that a few minutes ago to try and force the OTA update (which I've not been able to do) and now my roaming guard selections are greyed out again. Damn. Another hard reset.
I'm not rooted, so what is the best way to backup my phone's apps so they get restored at the push of a button?
Confirm RTM worked for me as well
I had the same problem with my Galaxy S4 (Sprint) and I can confirm that performing that the RPM fixes it as long as you perform it when you're NOT on roaming. I'm pretty sure this bug comes out when you initially activate your device while on roaming. Regardless, here are the steps again with a little extra detail:
Call Sprint Customer Service and ask for your MTL code
Use helium/carbon or another app to backup your AppData if your phone isn't rooted.
Open the Dialer app
Press ##786#
Enter your MTL code
Press "Reset"
Press OK and let the device perform factory reset.
When it's totally started up again (after the Samsung and Google sign-ins), download helium
Connect your phone to your computer and launch helium/carbon desktop app
Once the app says Helium enabled, restore all your programs and their respective app data. Note this works for NON-ROOTED devices

You don't need to use your MTL code. Just do a Factory Reset and you're good to go.
Hello everyone. I would like to thank anyone who helps in advance, and also to the devs who work so hard.
Anyhow, the problem first surfaced on CM11 with a recent nightly. All of a sudden, my SMSes would not send. So I tried different apps, hangouts, stock SMS, gosms, etc. Nothing works, the message just times out.
Next I tried restoring my known good working rooted stock nandroid. It all of a sudden would not send SMS with that either! Then I tried wiping my entire device, and doing a clean flash of only the 12/17 CM11 and the newest PA Gapps, and I did not restore anything. Still not sending!!! Please help, did I break my device??
I doubt that you broke it so relax. Check your APN settings. Maybe restore original stock ROM and then reflash whatever you want. Before you wiped it all I would have tried Textra. Good luck.
This happened to me about two days ago, I was installing and reinstalling Paranoid Android on my AT&T LG G2 to the point where somehow I was unable to send SMS.
The funny thing is I could receive Texts & Picture messages from others, and I could send Picture messages BUT NOT send texts or reply to texts.
I tried other 3rd party messaging apps - I even went back to stock but my text messages wouldn't send! I went to my local AT&T store and they replaced my SIM card for free and everything was normal, even now it's working just great.
I even tried imputing the SMSC number again but i'd get an update error message.
Trust me I've tried everything and I couldn't get it to work, but I went to the AT&T store and all they did was switch my SIM card for a new one and everything was back to normal.

Yes, calls did come in and I could make calls. Data worked as well (still connected to LTE). Everything worked except mysteriously texts wouldn't send.
I wonder if it's something to do with flashing ROMS so many times to the point where we don't let the ROM settle or maybe certain ROMS 'embed' some file that confuses the SIM card to cause it to malfunction?
EFS

I really hope that it is the SIM and not my EFS, because when I restored to my known good Rooted stock Nandroid, EFS was included in that and it still didn't work. I have contacted AIO for a SIM but it's gonna be a few days. I wanted to get one anyway because I feel my cut-down SIM was negatively affecting my signal reception. I could be completely wrong in that, but still. I can do EVERYTHING except send SMS. So weird!

Is my SMSC supposed to have those extra numbers at the end? I even had AIO "refresh/provision" me to no avail. And while I was on the line with her, she wanted me to remove the 3 extra numbers. But they persist! I have included a photo so you can see what I mean.
Further (and less importantly), is anyone else having an issue with KK where the '*#*#4636#*#*' menu takes forever to show up after entering the code?
Thanks again to anyone who's made suggestions!

I got that too but I still was unable to sent text messages. I also tried erasing the numbers and just adding the SMSC without any extra numbers and I would get an Update error.
Right now, this is what I have on my phone (it's fixed and no issues sending or receiving)

Thank you for showing me that. However, unless you are also on Aio, I don't think ours should be the same. I'm awaiting a new SIM from Aio to rule that out, so I will report back after I try the new SIM.

One more thing... How do you get yours to stick on LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)? Whenever I set mine to that, it always reverts back to just LTE/GSM. Just wondering, I doubt it's related to my issue lol =)

Not too sure, I've never moved that option on my phone, it was like that when I went to the settings menu. Maybe it's set by network? Not too sure.
I can't even get past 2 seconds when trying to answer a call. I can make calls with no problem.
I did a factory reset once and that fixed it however i don't want to keep going through that to fix it.
I tried from a land line, when i answer, it ends the call on the phone after 1 second. The land line stays connected with no sound or feedback.
I'm having voice call issues with my sprint s8 as well. It ends the call almost immediately. Can't make or receive any voice calls. Text and data is working fine though.

I dropped sprint a few years ago due to poor coverage, slow lte and dropped calls. I live right between DC and Baltimore and should be in a very very good coverage area but sprint just plain sucks but I didnt have the issue you describe. My calls would drop during almost every call but could go for a few minutes or more before they dropped. I am wondering if maybe your phone isnt provisioned correctly or something. I would be calling sprint and having them work with you on the issue. Good luck I hope you get the problem sorted out!

Yeah sprint isn't always the best for everyone but I've had them for over 15 yrs now with great coverage in my area. I've been holding onto my unlimited legacy plan.
I agree, I think the provisioning might be an issue. I'm planning a call to them this afternoon. I think it started after an update yesterday but not positive.

I don't think it's the coverage, it's like automatically hanging up after i hit answer. If i make a call, it won't hang up during a call. It's really frustrating that phone doesn't work as a phone is intended to work as.
Yes, this is happening to me. It will stay connected about 2 seconds every time. Then drop. I can make calls fine.
I was just starting to investigate. I went to Sprint store and they said check Google Voice integration. I had to leave because I only had a short time, but I am going to check that first.

After factory reset it worked, and that was after google voice was installed. I tried uninstalling google voice and it still does the same thing. Never had any trouble with voice before...so annoying.
Man.... Don't tell me. I just got everything freaking set. And without root.... No Titanium Back-up! ??
okay, i just factory reset it twice, now it won't answer a call at all. I can only make a call.

I think i found the issue. There is a new version of google voice. I was on google voice legacy. I unlinked my phone number with sprint with the legacy page. I linked the new google voice, it seems to be working now.
Fix: Sprint drop calls after two seconds.

jkluczyk, Thanks for posting your fix. It worked for me on my Sprint network phone. Here is how I did it -
- Open Google Voice on your desktop.
- Select Settings - Phone number - Under "Linked numbers" - Unlink your phone number or delete it.
- At top of the page it should say "Try new Google Voice". Select this and go to the new page.
- On the new Google Voice. Repeat steps above and reLink your number again. Should be fixed. Worked for me.
This is the only method that worked for me
Symptom: (All incoming calls hang up right at or just before the 2 second mark). The problem appears to be the association (or lack of) between Sprint and Google Voice.
1st I tried just un-associating/deleting my sprint number with google voice completely and removing my google voice account. This sort of worked, I could answer my phone normally but there was still one big problem. Now I had no voicemail and it would go to busy signal when trying to access it. Also, the phone would ring forever on the callers end if I didn't answer and never go to voicemail. Still no good.
Here's how I fixed it. This method worked for me.
Go to your google voice account - go to legacy mode if you are already in the new version (You must go to the legacy screen to completely remove your account) - go to settings - go to the "phones" tab - deactivate/delete your sprint association and email with your google voice account (In other words, remove everything as if you're starting all over.) You can't do this from the new version, only the legacy version! - give your phone time to update (sometimes up to 15 minutes) - Now setup your Google voice account again but ONLY USE THE LIGHT VERSION and setup voicemail only. This worked for me as my voice mail works fine through google with text and email transcripts and I can actually answer my phone. I did this several times trying the full version vs the light version and every time the full version caused the same issue hanging up with incoming calls, but the light version worked fine.
