Yes, my Amaze is rooted.
Yes, I flashed xboarder's update and kernal.
Yes, I've used the forum search and found a couple people posting about this error but nobody has posted a follow up.
No, I don't want to be flamed so pardon my ignorance if somehow I missed an obvious answer.
Perhaps its a problem with my router and if so does anybody have a hint? I don't really need wifi calling but I hate not having anything work.
and yes, I'm pretty sure I've abused the smiles. PS. Coming from HD2 and loving the Amaze thanks to all the hard work from the XDA community.
You said you read around and saw some problems, but you never said if you saw the new sim card issue and if you're using the new one. You have to use it. If you are, you could be getting the 911 address error, but that one tells you to go to my.tmobile.com to fix it. So using the new sim card is the next troubleshooting step...

Sorry, that was my only suggestion... Seems like you've done everything, maybe try calling customer support and figuring out exactly what the error code is for. Sorry I couldn't help, good luck!

Thanks. I appreciate the effort. Really any response is welcomed. I'm going to flash the faux kernel and hope for best
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using XDA App
i have the same problem...would love to know a fix...if it even exists.
i've talked to t-mobile customer service for hours trying to resolve and still no resolution.
i get the 911 address missing error, but it's on my profile and t-mobile reps even confirmed that it's in their system.
every once in awhile, wifi calling icon will turn blue and show that i'm able to make wifi calls...but then after a couple seconds, it'll go right back to the error message.
This may have no impact at all, buy have you reflashed the kernel? I reflashed the kernel and it resolved a WiFi issue. You can try it. I hope it works!
Okay, it toook me all night mostly because I am a big ass noob but I flashed quicksence and the kernal again and it resolved the issue. The reason it took so long was because I tried to start from scratch and go all the way back to stock. Big mistake. HTCDev is down and will not issue a new unlock key. Not a bad thing unless you already ran the relocker which I did. luckily I found my old unlock code and was able to unlock the bootloader again and here I am. I think I may have had a bad flash before but now its golden. Xboarder and Binary rock.
im having the same problem at home with stock everything
Just call them and ask to add wifi calling feature to your line.

Unfortunately the search function on XDA isn't the easiest to use nor very helpful. I think it's cool though thejondude is offering his help.
At least through the app, the search is way too general and overall pretty crappy. Its frustrating to use for a new user like myself.

Thank you for this thread! I am rooted and have tried several roms and radios. My question is this: Is the check for updates function in phone settings a reliable way to determine if your phone is capable of receiving OTA updates? I noticed when I was on a leaked radio it would tell me that the update service was unavailable and to check back. When I returned to the stock radio it said there were no updates available. Tia!
P.S. I am currently on the stock rom and radio. I am aware that any official OTA updates may wipe my root and my ability to reroot.

In the past, if you did not have all of the bloatware, etc. that came on the phone (i.e. if you were not completely stock) you would have issues getting the OTA. Since you are back to stock, you should not have any issues, but I wouldn't necessarily say that "check for updates" is the best way to determine that. If you are completely stock, you will get the OTA, but I wouldn't say that check for updates is all that reliable if you have changed something.

I am completely stock with the exception of root at the moment. Just curious if I will be able to deny OTA updates or they will automatically update my phone. With the OG Droid I was asked if I wanted to update or not. I don't want to lose root with no going back. Thanks.
I would assume so (that you can deny). I jumped on the Droid train a bit later but have always been asked (when I was all stock) to update.

I have a small echo-like noise now that I hear during phone calls on my phone. I think it is a hardware issue because I don't hear it on my bluetooth headset. I called Verizon 800 number the other night because I was wondering about the 4G outage and mentioned my audio problem while I was on the phone with her. She said if I call back from another phone, tech support would connect to my Thunderbolt and troubleshoot the audio problem, and if its unfixable they would send me another Thunderbolt.
I am wondering if I need to unroot before I do this....would tech support be able to tell if my phone was rooted and thus void the warranty and not be able to do anything for me? What should I do?
Bare minimum I'd install the stock rom on there, I don't believe they would dig far enough to see if fastboot is unlocked.
As for the title question Yes, they can tell if rooted.
I don't think they can tell Cuz I called yesterday Cuz my screen is messing up they called me back on another line and wanted me to do a factory reset but didn't know that I was already on GB

The only thing I can think of, and I'm no expert or anything so this is just a guess, is that they could look at the software version of the phone, and if it isn't the latest, or a previous release for this phone, then they could speculate that you are rooted, though I don't think that alone would hold up in court if it ever came to that.
When the support rep told the OP that they would "connect to my Thunderbolt and troubleshoot the audio problem", I think they were going by the standard "don't call tech support from the phone that's having the issue" practice.
Can they remotely connect to our phones ? I wasn't aware that they could.

Correct, that's what they said ("don't call tech support from the phone that's having the issue" practice.)
So should I still unroot to be safe before I call them or no....
What ROM are you using ?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
If you want to be on the safe side, make a nand backup, flash a stock ROM, call them, then restore the backup. I'll pretty sure they can't tell if you have a custom recovery.

Don't know how they do it, (simple user here) and not the first time I've seen this asked or answered. If you're bored jump on every TB forum your on and I'm sure you'll find your curiosity satisfied. Maybe it was on BAMF? I could care less how they do it. (No ins here) Call technical support and ask them what rom your on and how dare they know that.

Liquid AOSP 3.2.
I unrooted just to be safe and the tech rep never said anything and I got them to send me a new sim card and if that doesn't solve my problem (which I don't think it will), then they will send me a new thunderbolt.
When I rooted again after the phone call it wouldn't let me restore my rom and I got stuck in a boot loop. Luckily I had rom zip's on my sd card, so I installed one from scratch, reflashed cwm via rom mgr again, then it let me restore it.
Very weird, and I was terrified I jacked my phone up.

Hmm keep looking, I won't be at a pc till tomorrow maybe. But like I said I have no way to confirm only what I've read which is what I do. And that was second hand information. As most of this is. I'm really trying to remember because I know these site searching's are lacking at best.
I just recently used to work for at&t customer care and if vzw is anything like them, the only way they can maybe tell is if you have an unlimited data plan plus unofficial tethering app. Or if you send it in for warranty/Asurion replacement. Otherwise i don't really see how they could see in any way if it was rooted

That is understandable, thank you. Still gotta get to my pc. I know people have called in on their rooted devices for certain reasons and been called out only to deny. And of course unroot before going in. For whatever reason. Sticking to it.
That's why I asked what ROM. A support rep could simply tell the person to read them a version # that will be different than "stock".

Hey don't know if this is a motolib related issue or not....but I currently have the latest cm10 build by joker 0.2.0. gsm. I currently am using airfire mobile as my service plan since it works great in my location. However everytime when I call out, it always ends the call right away then it'll wait then automatically call out again which will then be successful. is there any way to fix this double calling up thing by chance? I've tried wiping and installing fresh with no prevail. if I do need to logcat, how would I do so? I would like to give my thanks to all the developers who made this possible to have jb on the photon. Thank you!
Sent from my MB855 using xda app-developers app
Not sure if it is your problem, my dropped call was somewhat different than you had, but running Joker's latest CM10 I kept having outgoing call issues right away.
Turns out all my calls failed if they started with a 1, and worked if they just started with the area code. Updating my address book to delete the 1 prefixes fixed the issue. Strange, and again, no idea if that will be your solution or not, but can't hurt.
If all else fails try using one of th3bills lovely ROMs

There is absolutely no support in the main thread so I decide to create my own thread. CDMA workshop is what's needed to get talk and text working, and QSPT gets data working, correct? If so, can I pay to have the phone flashed with just talk and text, and then get the data working my self or is there a certain process that's need to be done with CDMA workshop in order for QSPT to get the data working? Can anyone Enders this please?

Have you tried to manually program with CDMA WS?
The first time I tried it didn't work, and I listed my rez on Craigslist, but then, for some reason, I tried again and that time it worked. Just call up a P+ rep, and tell them you need the values for manually programming the phone.
I didn't program the data because I'm not on the monthly plans.

someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe as soon as you pop in a verizon SIM card it will program back to verizon. but I would verify that by someone else first, probably IamTheOneTheyCallNeo or any of the rom devs would know.

Hey guys i tried following the link showing hwo to flash. It all seemed to work. i tried making an outbound call and i just get the verizon auto system saying its not active.
