I found the solution.. IMS Service issue is related to Message app.. if you choose any other message app as default SMS app the error will stop coming. But I dont want to use the other default messaging app.
Go to the link https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...g-messages/samsung-messages-5-0-11-8-release/ and try downloading 5.0.22.1 version of message app(it works for me you can check another version if it wont get installed). and install as normal APK. once successful installation select again it as Default app. Error will be gone..
Hope this works for you.
Hit Thanks if it works.

Thanks for the solution. Tried the same, but unfortunately, it didn't work. Now the Phone has started to lag and I can't make any calls/SMS through sim1. Although when I switch off Sim 1, the issue gets resolved; but that is making my problem worse. Any suggestions?

Hi I am having the same issue and its related to volte, seems the volte does not gets automatically registered while restarting. This behaviour is common in customs roms. The fix that works for me is to create a new apn with name & apn as ims, protocol as ipv4/ipv6.

did not work for me. please any other solutions ?

Go to settings/ Device management /Reset/ Reset network settings
It worked for me
Just reset network settings

It is all about the default messaging app. I just installed the update and faced the same problem. Came here to see the solution.
What I did is just installed the Messaging app by Google LLC. You can use any messaging app and set as default. done

Go to settings > connections > more connection settings, turn off advanced calling and messaging.
Thank me later

Solution
Nothing to worry, It's bcoz u r using volte net and if u disabled mobile data while usimg wi fi, this problem occour on latest update of s8. U need to enable mobile data and pop up will run away.I faced this and solved thus. Initially I thought to factory reset but waited and pressure my ltl mind to overcome this stupid problem.... Wish you all the best.

No APN specified on device.

Anybody run into this error when sending or receiving mms? I'm on cm11 and this was never an issue until today.
Yes just started today for me as well. Seemed to have started with the latest nightly for my Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 2. I tried resetting APN, no dice. Tried using Hangouts instead of stock, no change. I also tried flashing the nightly from 3/3 & was stuck in boot loop....I'm out of ideas, hoping the next nightly fixes this as I find it EXTREMELY annoying!
Try the program elixir2 from play store.
use titanium backup or similar to move it to a "system app" --- if you don't move to system it cannot write the apn settings!!
then when you run elixir2,,, tap the top left button labled "information",,, then look for and tap "Telephony",,, then tap "APN settings"
edit or add proper setting and remember to then tap the '3 dots' and 'Save' your work,,,
mms function should now work if you have the proper /etc/apn-conf.xml file
... if you need it just grab one from a previously working mms ROM and overwrite the 'apn-conf.xml' file and set permissions
Thank you for your quick reply, hhp_211. I tried copying the etc/apns-config.xml from the 3/3 nightly (which had worked fine), changed permissions & rebooted....still that pesky 'No APN specified on device' error. I did figure out how to make the error disappear, I switched to Hangouts & did a force stop on the Messaging app. A temporary fix until I figure something else out...

Cool, the .xml would only be half off the fix though... You need to set the apn
If you have the voice dialer app you can also use that and speak "open APN's" to get to the settings menu

I've tried all these things to no success, but thank you. I just switched over to PAC-man and hae the same results. Then went back to stock touchwiz 4.3 and mms works fine. I figured maybe if I restore touchwiz and then restore cm11 over it then mms might work but it still doesn't. I guess this is a kitkat issue only. Seems every kitkat rom i've tried have the same issue(s).
I tried an APN setting I found on the internet, it didn't work. Not sure what it should be....at any rate using Hangouts isn't too bad. Thanks for the suggestions hhp!
Found a fix for Verizon here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2053705&page=3
Essentially, in the MMSC spot in APN settings you put:
http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms?X-VZW-MDN=1234567890
REPLACE 1234567890 with the 10 Digit Phone # of the Device.
Did this by opening Elixir2 (thanks for turning me on to this hhp!), go to Information, Telephony, APN Settings. LTE - Verizon Internet is already selected. Tap on it, and change the MMSC there and SAVE.
Hope this helps someone else! THANK YOU 4MUSKRAT & hhp!

Wi-Fi disconect automatically - erro

Hello guys, I have a Galaxy Y Duos Pocket Neo model GT-s5302b.* It features the following defect: when I try to connect to Wi-Fi the icon lights up but it is just a moment and automatically turns off.* The device does not find any network. I thought it was a defect in the hardware, however it was not. Now I believe it is the ROM update that caused this defect.* Someone could give me a technical solution for this.

Sm-c115l work as sm-c115 world

It may some of us need to have K zoom SM-C115 world on the Zoom 2 SM-C115L, then please followings:
1. Flash by ODIN system file from the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwmQ3F48xaJjaHV1VV9xRmVwTFU/view?usp=sharing
2. Phone will auto reboot.
Everything is OK, except Wifi lost password after every restart, so you could:
3. Flash by ODIN TWRP recovery (including Supersu installer) from the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwmQ3F48xaJjMWdXVWJUUDZrX0k/view?usp=sharing --> auto restart phone --> connect to internet to install Supersu --> restart --> ROOTED.
4. Copy “build.prop” from the link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwmQ3F48xaJjVHhxdFd6MkpCOVE/view?usp=sharing --> Replace the existing one in …/system/ (set permission for the new “build.prop”)
5. Boot into recovery (press volume + and home and power button) --> wipe phone --> restart the phone.
YOU ARE DONE, YOUR PHONE BECOME SAMSUNG K ZOOM SM-C115
GOOD LUCK!
Thanks to 5up.vn for TWRP recovery
ok cool !
the Wifi lost password after root and change the build.prop or work normaly ?
thank you

The wifi password lost after every restart, then you have to root your device to replace new build.prop for the existing one --> everything is ok!
hmm, i was install (fleshing) this it was work but can't recive any call signal can u check that?
Many thanks.
I've done it, but can you tell me if your 4G still working after ?
I'm now unable to run 4G
I'm wondering if it also able to get 4G+ on it ?
Tks
After Replace last step
After Last step .Restart with nothing show on screen
video
can you make a video to show how to do this installation...
Thanks for the post. It saved a lot of time of mine. But I think there is a minor flaw in the instruction. In No.3 the does not get rooted as you described, you have to install SuperSU binary to get root access. Otherwise, everything is good.
I'm still facing one problem though. When I insert a new SIM or restart my device I can not make calls or receive SMS untill I make random switchings in Settings> More networks> Mobile networks> Network mode.
And I can't turn off Haptic Feedback. Any possible solution???

[OK] EAP-SIM in OnePlus 2?

Is there EAP-SIM support in OnePlus 2?
EAP-SIM is supported by my carrier (France/Free) to connect phone to nearby WiFi Hotspots automatically using mobile account identification.
There are some posts around here talking about this feature (here and there for example).
It is not provided in AOSP, the android issue #9329 is open since 2012 asking for it.
Apple, Samsung, LG, HTC, Sony... phones support it through custom OS or Android overlay.
So the real question is: Do Oxygen OS provide it?
EDIT/ANSWER :
It works fine. I've used it multiple times.
Carrier application (Free) says it supports it
I just received the phone yesterday and installed an application provided by my carrier to configure Visual Voice Mail (Messagerie Free).
The application can also configure EAP-SIM and said that the phone is compatible and I completed its configuration.
However I didn't had the change to test it (EAP-SIM).
I'll post a reply if I'm able to test it.
Connection occurs
I saw the phone connecting to an EAP-SIM WiFi Hotspot (FreeWiFi_Secure), however I couldn't confirm the connection was working (I was driving, so safefty first).
It seems to be working, I just have to confirm it (browse some website when connected to a EAP-SIM WiFi Hotspot).
It works
I can confirm it works.
I've used it multiple times.
So good news.
Hi everyone !
Are you SURE EAP-SIM is working on the Oneplus 2 (the 2, not the one).
I had the oneplus ONE and, yes, it IS working, "Messagerie Vocale Free" can configure Freewifi_secure for the phone.
But I now have the Oneplus TWO and "Messagerie Vocale Free" cannot configure it : It says it cannot configure EAP-SIM on Dual SIM phones, you have to configure it manually. And when trying to configure EAP-SIM manually.. it's not possible...
I'm talking about stock ROM (Oxygen OS 2.1.2)
Yea it works I'm on stock rom and AK kernel.
In Singapore I needed Eap Sim for my provider's free WiFi, so it kind of look like this
network={
ssid="SingTel WIFI"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP IEEE8021X
eap=SIM
sim_num=1
priority=235
}
network={
ssid="Singtel WIFI"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP IEEE8021X
eap=SIM
sim_num=1
priority=242
}
The settings were automatically disabled by the phone once added for some reason, I thought it didn't work and left the code there until one day I realize I was connecting to the WiFi through Eap Sim. Nt sure what I did in between that made it work. Perhaps restart or add only when WiFi is off or disable then enable background WiFi scan
Take note that there are two wpa_supplicant file. The correct one should have some WiFi AP already there if u have previously connected to any WiFi AP. The path should be system>data>misc>WiFi
I modified the file using fx file manager with the free root add-on. Which means u need to root ur phone in order to change the settings. ES file explorer didn't work for me
10/8/16:
I've upgraded to Paranoid 6.0.2, there is EAP-SIM option when connecting to Singtel WiFi however it will always result in "Authentication Problem".
I've tried many ways to fix it:
- Removing pmf = 1
- Setting DHCP back to lollipop
- Disable 1.2 and 1.1 TLS for compatibility
- Adding sim_num = 1 (will be removed by driver due to external_sim = 1)
All of them did not work for me.
The only one that did work was to use EAP-AKA instead of EAP-SIM. It even works for [email protected] too.
P"
Thanks all for your advices,
Here is the procedure for French FREE MOBILE + OP2 users
The correct file "wpa_supplicant.conf" is in System(root)/data/misc/wifi as Imk1988 said (so grateful to him btw)
(do not modify the other wpa_supplicant.conf file in System(root)/etc/wifi)
Add this line
network={
ssid="FreeWifi_secure"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP IEEE8021X
eap=SIM
sim_num=1
priority=5
}​
after rebooting, it's working like a charm
Conditions:
SIM FREE MOBILE in slot 1
OP2 rooted
Hi lmk1988,
I tried using your method for Singtel WiFi (using a Oneplus X on CM12.1) and it's not working I'm afraid. I could edit the file successfully, but I get a "WiFi connection failed" when I try to connect.
Will try again later!
(I'm wondering if it's just that CM doesn't support EAP-SIM at all...)
Unfortunately I'm using oneplus two (custom rom: SkyDragon v3.1 OOS2.2 and Boeffla 1.1-beta3) now.
Not really sure if it will work for oneplus X
Anyway do make sure u are modifying the correct file, there are two files with the same name.
And note that not all Singtel WiFi will work. It's funny it can be working on one day then not working the next. Kinda depends on time and place.
---------- Post added at 08:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 AM ----------
Okay the issue seems to be from CM12.1 oneplus X
Take a look at bbs.zhiyoo.com/thread-9972195-1-1.html
(T.T I can't post links yet because under 10 post)
It's in Chinese but if you look at what they say for version 8
Code:
8.0更新:
回滚7.0版本的音频驱动设置
回声问题应该解决了
禁用EAP-SIM 设备本身不支持
It basically means
Code:
version 8.0:
Reverted Audio Driver to 7.0
Echo issue have been be fixed
[B]Restricted EAP-SIM setting, it is not supported[/B]
I'm not sure if it means CM12.1 for oneplus X does not support EAP-SIM, or does it mean oneplus X does not support EAP-SIM.
Try changing your ROM back to OOS and see if it works
I see.
Thanks man! I don't really know much about coding, etc., and finding out where everything us. Just kinda winging it by searching through forums and so on.
So really appreciate the help and the info! = )
I'm not sure if I'll try to switch back to the stock OS at the moment, found CM to be preferred at the moment. If I do, though, I'll let you know!

Thnx.. alot.. worked for me..in one go...:good:
Not this one but simple trick worked for me given by @TechGeekD without first step
no need to download any application to fix VoLTE
1). clean install latest build
2). goto settings -> SIM cards
3). set cellular data to Jio 4g & Calls to Jio
4). goto SIM 1 settings (or SIM 2 settings if Jio is in sim slot 2 )
5). see if Enhanced 4G LTE Mode is enabled or not !! enable it if not
6). goto Access Point Names (aka APN)
7). select 3 dot menu press Reset to default
8). add new APN with settings given below
APN SETTINGS
Name: ims
APN: IMS
APN Type : IMS
(notice one thing APN Type & APN is written in Capital !!!)
do not restart thats the bug ims setting stays there but not visible in settings cause after restarting we can not add new ims setting with same APN and APN Type but simple tweaking with APN & APN Type will fix it (but still don't restart after VoLTE gets working it will be gone again and you can't tweak it now)
Edit :- Selinux needs tobe on permissive mode

This is a permanent fix. His method is temporary due to restart won't allow volte. But this method works charming after restart also. Your choice, I am not forcing...
Not working here. I am on R 5.7.4. Had done a clean flash.
Tried every method. And even if VoLTE works, neither you can send sms nor receive.

That's why moved on to stock until codeworkx will remove VoLTE fix from the to do list. And i yes i have a lot a patience. So i can wait. As developers has their personal life. And they have to manage it.

Did you tried these workaround? Can you get volte icon in dialer in front of sim1 and sim2? If you are able to call through jio4g voice app. Follow steps from starting like deleting .jio4g voice folder and all that. These were tested personally by me in RR . If nothing works I better recommend you to flash 19s eui then clean flash lineage latest rom ( for bugs report to rom's threads) don't try to flash any other bootloader or modem files. As @codeworkx also mentioned that lineage is nothing to do with bootloader or modem. Note - MM have issues but nougat don't.

Try other JIO sim from a VoLTE supported phone.
OR
Put your JIO sim in other phone which have VoLTE working then put it back to your phone, try both method because this helped me sometimes.
