Hi, I have searched the forum for this same issue but have not found a fix, I just bought an Evo 3D and I can't connect to the 3g service. The phone just keeps saying Mobile Network turning on I have done a data and prl update and it has not fixed the problem. I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem and was able to fix it? Thanks

I am guessing it is not rooted since you just bought it? I would try a factory reset and go through the activation again and see if that fixes it. If it doesn't, I would just take it to a Sprint Store and have them take a look at it.
I rooted the phone yesterday so now I don't know how to take the phone back to sprint
When you make a call, does the call go all the way through, or do you get an error message?
You could always flash back to stock and take it back I guess. Let them look at it and then re-root. I would try flashing a different rom after doing all your wipes and see if that fixes the problem. I have had connectivity issues among other things from a bad flash. Reflashing fixed it though. Just a thought!
Try factory reset. Should still be rooted after its done.

I was just wondering if anyone has had trouble switching from 2G-to-3G and back? I'm on Orange and once I'm on 2G it won't budge to 3G or H.
I know the signal is there as when I force the phone into WCDMA only mode it picks up 3G but if that's not available it's obviously not able to switch back down.
Update: Okay, I've done both a soft and hard reset on the phone, switched it to WCDMA and back to Auto several times, pulled the battery out to do a few cold reboots, selected 'Orange' as my carrier manually and I'm STILL not picking up 3G after I've gone down to 2G. I don't really want to flash my phone via Odin as there's no guarantee it will work and I don't want to lose updates via Kies.
Any idea that to do?
Update 2: Just re-flashed using Odin as per the guide and it still doesn't work.
I really don't know what to do now
Update 3: After all of that it looks like it was bloody Orange's fault! There is a fault with the 3G in Bristol which is forcing people to use WCDMA only for now. Hopefully it'll all be fixed by tomorrow and I nabbed a fiver off 'em.
I Have Asked My Frnd About your problem! my frnd hasnt yet faced any problem !
There are extensive threads in this forum regarding 2g/3g switiching issues or connectivity issues..try and search it, maybe yours is having the same problem.

Oh not a-bloody-gain! They've already replaced my phone for another one and now I have to reflash?! I'm getting a little sick of this phone (or rather its software) now.

I've the same problem phone won't automatically switch to 3g unless i change it to WCDMA only. My last phone a i8910 would automatically switch to 3g for internet access if available the s2 doesn't......
after the latest update which is 45.2.7MB855.Sprint.en.US was shown in system updates, i installed the update but after updated my wifi wont turn on, it says error everytime I try to turn it on.
Note : Im using Photon outside US running GSM, I dont this this will make any difference right?
Actually it is the problem haha. When the phone turns on, it searches for a sprint network even if u set it to gsm only. And for some reason if it doesn't find a sprint network, it freezes up the 4G and wifi radios. Only thing that worked once in a while was put it on airplane mode, reboot. Wifi works then. Have somehow got it working alongside a gsm network a couple of times by trying to contact sprint servers while taking it off airplane mode but after 20mins, phone overheats and restarts. Not the most ideal situation. So no solution yet. Hopefully motorola/sprint fix it soon

Freeze SprintOmaDmPlugin.apk and you will no longer have this problem...
Oh, and this will also resolve the Activation screen after each reboot problem...

I don't think mine searches for sprint network because I had mine activated from sprint, and phone was working just fine before the update the wifi error came right after I updated, I think its the updatethat have caused it
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
If I'm not mistaken, the update resets the activation. I know I read a thread somewhere that said this. I cannot be sure because mine's not activated.
Anyway, to freeze SprintOmaDmPlugin.apk, you'll have to download Titanium Backup. You also need to be rooted...
If you're not rooted, instructions can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1217416

Hi, posting here to not create a new thread about this.
I have a Mopho and i am using it outside US, it doesnt give me much trouble after the initial loading screen "looking for network" and stuff from sprint.
I did the freeze SprintOmaDmPlugin.apk with titanium backup and it did work to eliminate the searching screen, however, the phone now never asks for my pin code, that means i cant connect to anything, i can easly turn back on the SprintOmaDmPlugin.apk but that makes the searching screen start up.
Is there anything that can be done about this?
Phone is brand new, stock everything just rooted.
Thanks.
use this patch correct wifi error
That patch does not work.
Motorola has posted the file, try reading the readme
Evertime I startup my phone with wifi on, the com.android.phone process crashes. I'm not able to connect to mobile network or enter my sim pin. If I boot the phone without wifi enabled, it boots normally. I've tried several factory resets, but the problem is still there. I've also tried changing simcard.
Anyone else with this problem, suggestions? I'm afraid I'll have to return it for repair/exchange.
Btw this is a XT910, european version.

Yup I sometimes have the same issue, but not all the time. I just normally reboot and its sorted. Bit of a pain but not a major issue to me and since I installed the update its not happened yet. UK unbranded handset
Sent from my XT910 using xda premium
update? is that the one mentioned in the dev forums? Any idea if its going to be pushed over the air or is it only available via manual update?
(sorry to hijack, I also get this issue but rather than rebooting I go into the mobile network settings and just get it to scan for cellular networks and it usually comes back)
Yep, the leaked OTA update for the GSM RAZR in the dev forums does fix this issue - at least, it has for me so far. Also fixed a bunch of others I had.
Sent from my Motorola RAZR
cool.. any idea when its coming officially?
Your guess is as good as mine. Didn't initially sit too well with me since we don't have a shipped ROM to flash back to, but I figure, when an official OTA does hit, we can just flash it over this one.
Sent from my Motorola RAZR
ok, no worries.. will wait patiently with fingers crossed .. Phone working ok apart from a few quirks and at least we know there's at least some update out there (which hopefully moto won't scrap)

Had the same issue. Restarting without the wifi solved the problem. Thanks for the tip. Looking forward for an official fix!
Try clear data of phone app. It should solve the issue. If not. Creat a back up then factory reset.
I wgot this problem when update the phone and this way help.

Tank you ianford10, rebooted with wifi off and it works well...
Hoping in a fast update, I turn off the phone quite often to reset it...
If you don't care much about your settings you can always do a full wipe. It worked in my case. Kind of painful but you'll get a working wifi. You can always use some backup software (ex. Titanium Backup) to save your texts, settings etc.
I have this too. But it coz I install MotoHomeFix.app. After I uninstal it, my razr back to normal.
Hello all! I am need of assistance, I recently traded my black rooted s-off lte for a white unrooted ota having beast. After letting Sprint do their thing we weren't able to successfully have data on his phone. I have walked the guy through nandroiding back into a ROM I had and he updated the PRL successfully but, had an issue connecting still. He tried updating the Profile with no luck. Here is a little info:
BASEBAND:1.05.11.06.06
PRL VERSION: 25006
S-OFF
Stock w/Goodies 2.10 is the Sense ROM he is using.
what are my options?
call sprint and have them as they say "refresh" your services. had the same problem last weekend. you could try a ##72786# and reset it and let it go through the hands free activation and see if they will fix it.

I tried that too.Currently on the phone with Sprint now. So the phone being rooted has nothing to do with it not updating correct?

nope, i think there system was having problems the night i was on with them. my phone would go through the hand free just fine but on there end it was saying it still wasnt completed. they ended up having to "push" so they say to my phone and it finally showed completed on there end. i had my data back as soon as he said it showed complete on his end.
i did all this rooted on tranquility rom.
Thanks for being helpful.

Still no luck I was given the advice to update the radios. Would this fix my issue? Whats Sprints stance on it being rooted. I know my warranty is
void but will they still try to fix it?
do the##3282# go to edit then put the msl....select data profile....active profile put a 1 press menu select commit modifications....the do the##72786# that should work...if it didn't work try updating your profile over WiFi
HTC EVO LTE
So, all of a sudden my GS4 doesn't want to connect to VZW's network. I can't place any calls, send texts or receive any calls or texts. LTE is working fine. I've tried all of the different provisioning codes, but none of them go through because as soon as I tap the call button I just get the error message "Mobile network not available".
I've flashed different ROM's to see if that clears it up, rebooted, wiped, restored... everything. Nothing seems to be working.
Also, in About Phone>Status, the IMEI field is populated and has a bunch of numbers and stuff in it, so it appears normal. Everything appears normal. Here's what it says in About Phone>Status:
Network: Verizon Wireless
Mobile network type: LTE:14
Service State: Out of Service
Roaming: Not Roaming
Mobile network state: Disconnected
And yes, before any asks, I am in a spot where I normally get coverage, so I know that's not the problem.
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
UPDATE: Restored to a 3 day old backup and all is well again. Upon the first boot I still got the same error message when I tried to place a call so I then dialed *228 and got a little messaging saying I was now activated, and everything is working now. So yeah, I don't really know how I fixed it, but whatever as long as it's working.
S4 signal issues
ive been having same issue Network not availiable and also where i normally have 4g service i know only get 3g.Ive flashed several different roms still same issue.Could this be glitch in vzw AWS system?Is there any other radios we can flash?
I'm surprised it worked after *228. That's a good way to nuke a sim, making it unusable.

Same thing here. Connection is intermittent. 4g/3g comes and goes. Tried reflashing different roms, factory wipes, nothing seems to work. Does anyone have a fix for this yet?
Its a Verizon system error. they're fixing it as we speak. I went to the store and thats what I was told.

Sounds like they fed you some bs. I took an alcohol wipe and cleaned the contacts on my sim card. Seems to have helped but I'm still experiencing issues.

Same issue, however i can send and recieve texts, just no in or out calls. Im not sure if my issue was due to me trying to simunlock but that when it started right after. I did make a backup with the EFS using TWRP and was thinking of restoring that, but do you think that just doing the *228 will do the trick? or restore the backup to the prior EFS and do the *228. Kinda concerned that someone said here that doing the 288 call can mess up the sim, why is that excactly?
Did u use twrp or cwm to restore, if twrp, did u do a full wipe first? And can u describe the steps done? I have the same issue and did the restore but I'm still having this issue. I did not do a full wipe cause I thought twrp did this automatically. But also if a full wipe it's done, does this mean we need to reflash the Rom and then the backup? Looking back on my s2, I remember the fone not booting due to missing this step but that was w cwm. Let me know if u would, thanks
