Error 16 Today ? Solved - HTC EVO 3D

Can anyone help with this with out calling sprint. I rooted my phone like 2 weeks and now My 2 Evo 3d are showing error 16.
I have a data but can't make calls I Read that is some kind of Sprint network security.
I live in the bay area does anyone have this problem this morning ?

Make a phone call and itll get fowarded to sprint, let them handle it. It takes like 5 minutes.

I think you still need to call them. Or chat with them online. Say that they need to reprovision your phone on their end.

I don't want to call because i think they know at this point the only rooted evo 3ds have the problem.

I don't think so. I think I remember some people having the issue before root was out.

Just call, or go to the online chat, they should fix it with no questions asked. I had to do this a week or two ago when it randomly happened to me.

Mine did this same exact thing last week. Didn't have the issue after rooting, but 2 weeks after I rooted I went on a business trip and got error 16 when trying to make any call.
Phone would not automatically transfer me to Sprint no matter how many calls I attempted to make.
I had to call them, and after about 2 hours and about 5 different Sprint reps they finally sorted it.

I've been rooted for 3 days and the same things happened to today. I was finishing a call and i hung up and tried to make another call and it told me "Thank You for calling Verizon etc etc." I had a triangle above my signal bars. Then i attempted another call and got the error 16 message and it shot me to customer service where they already knew i received the issue. Funny thing is i asked her what usually causes the error 16 and she told me "that happens when you pull out the battery and yea."

damn it I just found out after work I have the same issue. Didnt use my phone all day so I didnt know. I'm also in the bay area. On the phone with sprint now. What do they need to do exactly. The rep I'm talking to wants to run several test but cant since I'm calling them from my phone and I dont have any other phone to use.
EDIT: they had to reset my profils so when I restarted it auto provisioned. Fixed now

Nothing....If you get this it is a problem authenticating your phones security on their end. You must call to get this fixed.

I had this same thing happened to me over the weekend while I was traveling.

Serious Data Problem

So long story short, I opened a new line and swapped my hardware to the new line for the TB on my line. After I left BB, I called Verizon to do the swap. They said they couldn't because my SIM card was programmed for the original line and I had to go back to a VZW to get a new provisioned SIM, which I did. It worked when I left, but since late last night, I have no 4G or 3G. Any ideas what the issue could be?
Oh and when the phone goes into sleep mode and I awaken it, the 4G is lit up and then shortly after, no data.

when i first got my phone, the original 4g card wasnt working. turns out is was just bad... they swapped it for a new one and all is well. so i'm assuming u've already tried to reboot and see if that helps. maybe that card is bad as well? hmmm....u should go back to see if they can swap out to another one.
When I was in the store getting mine they were talking about how they'd been having allot of issues activating phone because of the large demand was causing a backup in the switch. There was a guy that walked in about 5 min before me and his would not activate, but then mine activated perfectly. So I guess it was intermittent. Makes me wonder if you got caught up in that backup when you activated the second sim.

Should I go back?
I would do a battery pull (pretty sure you've already done that) and remove and reseat the sim as well (if you haven't already) and if that doesn't work I'd reach out to Cust Service. May be something easily fixable in the system, save ya the time and gas of driving to the store.
maybe try a *228 and press 1 to program .... just a thought, I hate having to deal with customer service
I could be wrong but I thought *228 did not work with these phones because of the sim card.

My 4g would drop off randomly and I just assumed it was my area's LTE working out it's kinks. Then after doing the manual 3g only switch, the data was still randomly dropping off, so I was up to try anything out.
I pulled the battery and reseat the Sim like you said and so far so good...mind explaining that?, lol, doesnt make sense to me.
thanks in advance

Improperly seated SIM card? Corrupted memory that a battery pull resets? Good Karma?

Wow, exact same experience I had yesterday. I went in late, like 5:00 PM. I had to wait a while for someone to actually help me, but once I said what phone I wanted it wasn't more than 20 minutes to get the transaction done.
Do NOT do *228.
I had this same problem today when activating my phone. Just call Verizon and they will walk you through getting it activated correctly.
Ironically, on my way to VZW it suddenly started working. LOL. "clog" in the system? I don't know, but it's fast as hell!
I don't have 4G in my area yet but I got the TB anyway. I love it. But the 3G does the same thing, just keeps dropping out.
This keeps happening to me also. Its very Frustrating. What the number to VZW Customer Service?

Just so you know, *228 & *22899 do not work on the tbolt due to sim card. You cannot activate or update that way..

doesnt it still update the other radio? not everything uses lte.
No need for *228 because the sim card now is provisioned with auto PRL for when the phone does enter 3G service
DO NOT EVER ESN SWAP THE PHONE TO A NON 4G
Just like mentioned initially, the sim card and phone are designed for 4G lines only so swapping back to your old 3G device or onto another line is a bad idea.
If your trying to do an alternative upgrade and the store your at is full of morons, ask them if they could possibly do a Customer Provided Equipment Upgrade and then then ring out the phone in their point of sale system with the contract you have signed.
Until VZ Corporate figures out another way to do alternative upgrades, this is the only method I have found to get around this
Yes in many cases (including me) we have found it to take a while for 3G or 4G to stay on. Give it time. dial #832 to prove your phone can make calls and receive text messages. anywhere from 10 to some cases an hour before the phone is in full lock.
If your still having a problem go out for a walk or drive, heard switching between towers can help push the process.
I had the exact same problem as the OP, to fix it Verizon made me go back to best buy, you have to get the phone exchanged for a new one and then they have to call in to setup the new untouched TB on the line you want it on. Believe me it took 3 hours for them to finally fix it, and that's what did it.

[SOLVED]SMS Error - Radio Interface Resource Shortage

SOLUTION: You need to call Sprint (from another phone - 1.888.211.4727) and tell them you can't call or text and you are getting the error "SMS Error - Radio Interface Resource Shortage - Cause Code: 64, Error Class: 2" They wil refresh you on the network, takes about 5 mins. Hope this helps
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyone having this issue after Revolutionary? I NEVER had this problem before and it started happening to me even before I put my own ROM on. I cannot send ANY texts. I'm wondering if anyone else is having this problem and what you did to fix it. Tried a wipe and reflash and still happening. Any ideas?
Also: Cause Code: 64 Error Class: 2
Your going to have to call Sprint. There is someone who asked how to manually do it, check the Q&A area for a thread called Manually reset or something like that.
I'dink link this to you, but I'm on the XDA App
Appreciate my help? Thank me
I'd get on the phone with Sprint, they probably can fix that easily. I'm sorry bud that sucks, I didn't have that problem and never have.

I guess I will have to call Sprint. I tried the first code and it didn't work. Maybe the others would have but I'm going to bed now and I may just have Sprint deal with it in the morning
Driving my crazy. Does it constantly when connected to the air rave. Rebooted that thing 20 times.

Same thing happened to me after rooting. I was also unable to make calls or send SMS. Got the error code 16 when trying to make a call. I stayed on the line and was connected to a Sprint rep who told me they reset my info which fixes the problem. Told me to turn my phone off for 30 seconds then back on. calls and sms working again.
Sprint Rep was on the ball and new what to do as soon as he started talking. I assume they got a lot of these calls in the last 12 hours.
I'm not rooted or attached to an airave and I've been getting this error since I bought it yesterday ..becoming more and more disappointed with this thing
sent from my DAMN 3D!!
it can only fix by contacting sprint
same thing happen when i got s-off, i just got off from chatting on sprint and they fix the problem i told them the issue and they asked me to turn off my phone and take out the battery then she asked me to turn it back on and and to dial this number 1888 546-0348 and then voice prompt said "your phone is now activated" and now its working fine
it happened to me too after I did s-off. I could not get my sms working and did reset and everything. I ended up flashing the stock image available here in the forums. I guess I will wait for the tool to get out of beta and if not just wait for htc unlock. OK fail on my part, I just checked this morning and my calls are still not working lol. I need to call sprint I guess.

[Q] sprint roaming problem they blame phone...

I recently called sprint via line2 on wifi about how I no longer get Verizon roaming (I make a phone call and a verizon message pops up saying can't auth code) when in northern Pennsylvania but I used to before I got s-off and flashed gbsense deck rom .2 I called sprint they blamed my phone but I flashed rooted latest update to my moms Evo shift she's having the same problem any ideas guys(and girls)?
I'm kind of confused but it sounds like you want to roam on a Verizon tower and now that you can't you cannot make any calls? As for the Sprint rep don't worry about it unless your talking to advanced tech support they really don't know what their talking about and usually just don't have the correct answer. It sounds like when you were on deck's sense rom you got better coverage maybe because the rom had an updated radio and your stock rom had an outdated radio...not sure, have you tried flashing the latest radio to your phone? Also try a data profile update followed by a PRL update on your phone when inside your home and see if that helps your signal.

the solution is to have adv tech support reprogram your phone...
I don't want to reprogram or turn my phone in so my mom is ditching root and giving it in
Reprogramming your phone takes just a few minutes your don't have to turn your phone in

LOL just call sprint and tell them you are getting error code 16 when you try to dial out which in turn they will re-provision your phone takes all of 2 mins.
Sorry im kinda noob at this whole thing thank you so much for not being a bunch of a holes about this cause my mom wouldn't stop bothering me about not getting service you guys were SO much help thank you ffor you're time everybody (im also new to the forums)
I had the exact same issue a couple of days after rooting. As previous poster said just call sprint and tell them your getting error 16. Re provision does the trick.
yep had the same problem after s-off....just call and ask to have your phone reset on the network.
after a battery pull you will get roaming again.

Unable to Authenticate while Roaming on Verizon

Ok...so I know there are other threads...read them all about this and Ive tried 3 times with Sprint updating and changing the MID number, PRL, Data reset but I still cant connect to roam. There suggestion was to swap the phone out but if I do that and reroot wont I be back in the same boat? What fix am I overlooking here? Thx

Dunno here, but I'd give it another shot. After I rooted and got a signal 16, I just stayed on the line, followed the instructions given, and was back up and operational within 2 minutes.
Note, though, that Engadget had a post saying that they were going to be pushing an update to the Evo3D in the next couple of weeks. The story also had a suggestion that it may close off the S-OFF/Root hole that the Revolutionary team found.

Well thats just sketchy on their part. lol
I was having the same problem. I was forcing Roam using Roam Control and when I did I was unable to place calls and received a Verizon Error message. Also 3G roaming data would not work. I could only receive calls while roaming. Here is what i did to fix it and I think it may be a combination... I reflashed the ROM I am using (ViperROM 1.3) and it still didn't work. So at a complete loss, I called Sprint. The sprint support rep said they have acknowledged a problem with the EVO 3D not roaming correctly. She had me make sure that the Roaming was set to Sprint Only, not automatic. and then she had me power down and pull battery. Once my phone came back up, Roaming worked!! I'm thinking she did something on her end to make it work. Also the dev for Roam Control, MrGreg said that there have been a lot of reports that Root messes up Roam Control on the 3D.

Just to clarify, I wouldn't say that rooting affects Roam Control specifically, but it affects roaming altogether. This was a pretty typical problem with the original EVO as well. Sprint is usually able to fix the "unable to authenticate" problem if you give them a call.

Well I couldnt get it to work on viper, Helicopter or Joelz.....Im going to try synergy since it says it cleans up some of the root method....maybe that will help. I never once got a rep saying they knew there was a roaming problem...
Ok so I got roaming to work...I asked the lady at sprint to do the profile update and HLR reset then I asked for a ESN refresh....he supervisor then got on the line asked how he could help. After he gave the spill about them not promising roaming will work all the time I told him I don't understand how an EVO sitting next to my 3D could roam perfectly fine and mine not. He said he would refresh everything on their end including ESN. I left my phone off for a few mins and now I can roam perfectly fine!

Had the same problem and after multiple calls to sprint with no help, I figured I would try to reset the phone and do a hands free activation. After I did this, everything has worked fine and roaming/calls/text have been perfect.
Note you must know your MSL to do this and be on Sprints network. You can call sprint for your MSL, or if you have root/s-off you can download MSL reader from the market
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.esccode.msl&feature=search_result
1. Go to data menu by entering ##3282# on the dialpad.
2. Click on "Edit Mode".
3. Enter your MSL # and hit "OK"
4. Choose "Data Profile".
5. Press your menu button on the phone and select "Restore" from the menu that appears. Then hit "OK.
6. Phone should reboot.
7. It should start hands-free activation.
Hope this helps.
I was getting this error. I called sprint, and they said it was an outage, it should be fixed in x, days, and told me I was entitled to compensation. They gave me a $25 credit for it. It's not a whole lot, but I'll take it.
I had the same problem...I did the Sprint Chat and asked for an HLR refresh, and that fixed it!
just do a sprint chat and tell them you have a error 16 they will tell u to hold on a min then they will tell u what to do and after that it will be fixed

Thanks I requested the HLR refresh and it worked!!!
I had the Verizon roaming authentication problem and made several calls to support with no meaningful progress (one rep told me to bring the phone to a store for an update). Then I chatted with a rep tonight and asked them to perform a CHLR refresh and reload my ESN. They had me pull the battery and the phone updated on reboot. Roaming finally works again.
I called and had a reset done and now I am stuck in 1x data hell roaming and not. Anyone else have that problem, I think I am gonna have to call back today and have them undo whatever they did.

[Q] Network/data strange behavior, logcat?

So, all of my family just signed up for AT&T from T-Mobile and most of us got Galaxy S II's from Amazon for $0.01 (good deal). However, my brother and I are both having data issues. We'll be connected to HSPA+ with 4/5 bars, but sometimes anything that requires data (webpage, email) won't load, an there will be minimal data activity in the status bar. I have to click links multiple times for a connection to finally occur (if not wait a minute). Other times, I've waited so long I've turned airport mode on and off. My brother tested his GSII next to someone's Atrix, and their Atrx loaded a webpage without any latency, while my brother's browser just sat there with the initial loading bar, no network activity.
I haven't done much testing/replacing the ROM/radio, because methinks the stock ROM shouldn't be having this problem in the first place. Can I check logcat w/o root?
Could this be a cellular issue? We ported our numbers from T-Mobile, and still have the T-Mobile account. I never had to activate my AT&T phone when I got it from Amazon (came with SIM card, worked out of box). I also noticed strange behavior. I had both my old T-Mobile phone and my new AT&T phone on at the same time, and my T-Mobile phone rang, even though I had supposedly ported my number to AT&T. So if that can happen maybe it's some crazy SIM issue going on?
Any advice or pointers of assistance from the GSII forum would be appreciable.
Thanks!
Sounds like the AT&T sim card is not activated, or fully activated. Id call them and verify. Also make sure that you are on a 4G data plan... that can also cause issues with data.
When you port a number it can take up to 48 hours to fully port the number. Until it is done both phones will ring. The reason for the bad satanist that even though it works out of box you have to call Att to set the account up the rest of the way. I can't tell you how many people came into my store due to this.

The reason for the bad satanist that even though it works out of box you have to call Att to set the account up the rest of the way. I can't tell you how many people came into my store due to this.

Update: Just took phone out of pocket and loaded cnn.com. Tooks ~20 seconds before page even started loading (beyond initial bit of browser loading bar). Both up/down HSPA+ became active at various points in the time frame.
This seems to be a common occurrence. I remember talking to an AT&T rep from Georgia or something because my dad called her to get our account in order. She called my phone, as was like "Oh you're talking on your GSII? -- it must already be activated then." She made no indication that it still needed to be activated.
Sorry damn keyboard. I ment bad data connection.
I used to run a small retailer but still do freelance support for a few of the Att stores around town. You would be amazed how many store managers have no idea about the products they sell lmao
Call Att and get tech support and have them refreash your connection to the data servers. That should fix you right up.
