Unable to receive text messages(can send out) and Voicemail.

Hello everyone...a little important matter to me. Has anyone rooted through "Revolutionary" with their Evo and experienced the following symptoms (BTW im unrooted now so these issues followed my after going stock again)...
1.Unable to receive text messages but can successfully send text messages out ( I called Sprint and they could not fix this)
2.Unable to retrieve Voice mails ( I called Sprint and they reset my VM system so im getting them now but im not receiving notifications for them I have to manually call the VM *2 number to listen to them).
3.Camera and camcorder do not work properly...yes they work however if im recording or taking a picture in portrait mode the phone doesnt seem to recognize this and the layout stays in landscape mode. (I havent told Sprint about this issue as I just realized it after I took it in to a local Sprint store and the tech told me he found this issue...i believe he also realized i had previously rooted the phone however they are still sending me a replacement phone today (free of charge).
Main thing is I would love to root my phone again however under these circumstances it would be difficult for me to just root it knowing these same problems can occur again. I love Sense 3.0-3.5 and going back to using a 2.3 UI is not somthing I would wish on anyone else...If anyone here has a solution or has gone through or is still going through these problems please i beg you..respond to this post or PM me. my UN is drewskee. I need advice and I want to use a ROM. Much thanks to anyone who can help or atleast relate. ..and i have checked all over Google to find an answer and theres nothing solid out there...ive tried a bunch of stuff ..and as you can see i had to make my final decison to just unroot andthat didnt work so im hoping this community can lend a hand, Thanks everyone.
MMS FIX
Use to work as Tier 2/3 Tech Support, so I have a few tricks for you to try. After flashing skip all tutorials, syncs, and setups. Update profile immediately followed by prl. If unable to do so, power down phone and pull battery (soft reset), power up and update profile and prl. If still doesnt update, boot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik and try again.
Remember these simple rules: MMS is dependent on signal strength. If you have a problem with text and updating profile and prl, its because of signal strength. If your roaming and have a poor signal, none of these features will work.
^^^This! I made that mistake once, didn't update.

Restricted access changed message after 4.2.2

Hello guys and gals
I'm trying to fix my issue and while doing some search I haven't found a fix or what's causing this issue.
Phone is rooted running stock rom and kernel
Manually updated to 4.2.2
After 24 hours on 4.2.2 I came home and turned on wifi like usual, placed the phone on the orb charger and noticed 2 notice on the screen.
Both of them said "Restricted access changed" one for calls and the other for data.
I cleared them and tried to make a phone all and a notice appeared on the dialer screen and the call didn't get thru. I asked my wife to call my phone and it send the call to vm.
Called Tmobile to see if it was something on their end and they said no and asked me to power cycle the phone , yeah like that;s going to help.
I have wipe back to factory, data, cache, dalvik and no luck.
It only happens when the wifi is on, it only started after 24 hours of manually flashing 4.2.2
Any help is appreciated in find the fix for this issue.
happened to me in 4.2.1.
but not that frequently in 4.2.2
I wonder the reason too
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
It seems that when you turn on "2G only" setting that seems to work but I'm not happy with this temp fix.

Is there any respite from a fraud company like Huawei?

I have a Nexus 6P which I bought about 7 months ago. It worked fine for about 3 months, but then the WiFi started giving problems. The WiFi icon will all of a sudden go grey and there is nothing you can do to turn it back on. This has happened several times and the only option you have left is a factory reset. But there is no guarantee that the factory reset will fix the problem either. Sometimes the factory reset will restore the WiFi connection, sometimes not. I have had to send the phone back to Huawei twice for RMA and each time the phone was returned to me with the message that the technicians could not reproduce the problem. Of course, each time I received the phone, the WiFi was working and I could setup the phone. I wouldn't be writing this post if that was the end of my problems. The same WiFi issue has occurred again and now Huawei is refusing to do any further repairs on this phone claiming that they have done all necessary testing and there is nothing wrong with the phone. I can say for sure that there is something wrong with the phone because there have been times when even a factory reset will not fix the problem. I am attaching a picture which shows a blank WiFi screen after a factory reset with no networks visible. This screen is the first thing you need to get past after a factory reset and as you can see from the picture, there is no where to go but back as the front arrow is grayed out. I have updated my phone to Android N and still the same problem.
I will be sending a formal letter of complaint to Huawei management and giving them notice that a Breach of Warranty lawsuit is coming unless they resolve my problem. I have contacted Google tech support and they have been unable to help also. Any suggestions?
Go forwards with your lawsuit. I have one question, have you ever rooted before?

Hey, definitely sounds like a hardware problem but just make 100% sure it's not your router just in case. I've seen problems before with certain routers not communicating properly with certain wireless chipsets, in laptops and in mobile devices. You can always test just by getting on a free wifi at some location. If it doesn't even detect any networks and there are multiple certainly sounds like hardware. You could attempt reinstalling the phone from one of Google's official factory images .. there's a tutorial here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701 (It's for Nexus 5 but the process is the same, just remember the codename for the Nexus 6P is "angler")
Hope you have some luck

I was gonna say if you ever rooted, the vendor image partitions, radio, and bootloader get altered so even if you factory reset back to stock firmware you still need to reflash the correct vendor, and radio so WiFi can work. If you've never rooted before it must be a faulty Wi-Fi chip inside the phone.
I mean not to belittle you, but you have restarted the router and or flushed the DNS?

Nexus 6p Mobile hotspot not working properly (T-mobile)

Have searched extensively and found no working solution to this issue. Return would be a last and unwanted resort. Here's the deal. Mobile Hotspot performs strangely no matter what android version I run. In marshmallow it would turn off during use. In nougat it would just crash and need to be restarted. It most reliably occurs when playing lan minecraft over 2 comps on the hotspot but will still have the issue randomly even when only 1 device is connected. Many calls to various companies have all resulted in "send it back in". This is infuriating as this feels like a software issue not a hardware issue, I just can't see how it can be any other way. I have tried everything I could think of and had no luck, here's the list of what i've tried so far:
Restart phone
Factory reset
update to latest firmware
downgrade back to original marshmallow firmware
there is no access to advanced settings for hotspot so timeout is non-existant
reset network settings
edit: also tried ElementX kernel still have the same problem
tried flash-all to stock Marshmallow firmware without restoring apps or settings
RMA TWICE
etc. (any others I've forgotten that I did I will edit and add if ppl suggest it)
Nothing works, before I downgraded back to MM I did capture a bug report when the crash happened on latest nougat. I have no idea if I caught relevant info but will include the zip here anyway. Any help is massively appreciated.
Flash the correct factory images using google flash-all method (backup data first or remove -w in the script!). Upon startup do NOT restore settings apps etc.. and test.
If it doesn't work post a bug report on google website.

if it wasn't clear in my post I was at factory default and the problem occurred and have restored and erased a few times. If the method you're describing is different form having out of the box stock please elaborate, I only flashed a kernel recently as a further last resort.
By not restoring settings are you referring to not allowing google backups to restore? and finally if you can provide a link to where exactly I am to post this bug report I would appreciate it, I have posted in what I thought was official channels with a bug report and was told to call in, which is stupid, considering if I leave a bug report why not read it and get back to me?
Anyways thanks for reply and any further info you give

Finally got back from vacation and had time to try your request. used flash-all method and did not restore any apps or settings and hotspot still did not work. any other info or at least a link to where I should post a bug report to google as I have used the report function through the device and have posted on nexus help forums and not received answers. I really don't want to have to do an rma as I hate the thought of receiving a refurb phone when I wanted a brand new one and they sent me a broken one
well all is officially lost as I am in the process of doing an RMA. Multiple phone calls between carrier and manufacturer see each company blaming the other with no solution in sight. Fingers crossed hard enough to bleed that somehow a new phone or any "repairs" done to mine will fix the issue. Come back in a few weeks for an update. :crying:
I would confirm with T-Mobile that your line is provisioned with Tethering. When testing an AT&T SIM from a friends UDP (no tethering) account, this is what would happen. My T-Mobile and Verizon accounts both allow it, so it just works.

I have tethering on my account and have had it for 2 years. worked flawlessly on other devices before switching to this one. It also doesn't explain why it could work for hours at a time before failing. Or why it would consistently fail within minutes when playing LAN minecraft.
Well Huaweii has been an absolute joke, after 3 weeks of terrible communication and no transparency I finally received my phone in the mail (no email notification on if it is a replacement device or not) and the issue still persists. I'm at a loss for what to do.
